Culture shock for foreign students


Culture shock for foreign students

  Culture shock is the the necessary way for foreign student ,different student have different feeling . It was the first time to go abroad ,at first I felt excising because I away from my family protect ,I'm freedom . But after one week ,I felt confuse about lots of thing . I must adjust the new life.

  For example , American prefer to fast food but in China people no matter what busy or tired . They insisted on cook by themselves. Chinese think fast food is not good for healthy . So I don't like fast food despite their taste good.

  Another example is that in the United State , class time are also different . The classes were beginning at 9AM and finished at 3PM . It means that the student has more time to do themselves' thing . It's worth mentioning that we have more spare time but we don't have lots of homework to do . The beginning I am very pleased ; however ,after a week when I came here , I am a little disappoint , because St.cloud is too small lead to this place was very boring.

  The third example is check bank account . The account including checking and saving . I check my account in TCF Bank's ATM . I'm so confuse , when I insert the card into the ATM machine , after 15 seconds the card was back. I think that ATM machine was broken.

  For me ,exciting and confuse were combine together. I has been USA for two mouths ,during this two mouths I have adjusted to the new life , now I feel better than when I first came.
