Back--My final entry

We've got 11 days left before we go back. How time flies, right?

To tell the truth, I wasn't used to everything here at first. I wasn't used to the food I ate here; I couldn't get used to the price of food and drink here...There were so many things I didn't like so much about America at first. However, now I quite like the place here. I sort of integrate myself to the American culture now. On the morning, I say 'Good morning' to strangers too now. I can even cook pizza for myself now and quite enjoy it. But I will be back in a few days...It is really a pity.

We've just gone to Short Pump. I remembered the first time I went there I didn't buy anything. I just took some pictures there. However, this afternoon I found that I had so many things that I wanted to buy for my parents and friends. But time is so limited, I just bought a dress to my dear sister. I hope tomorrow some of us can go there together.

Talking of things here in America, I'd like to say that people here are very friendly, at least in Richmond. Although I also met some guys who were not so kindly to Chinese people, I still think that most of Americans are friendly to us. It seems to me that people here have a quite peaceful life. I enjoy the life here.

The summer program has taught me a lot of things which I believe will help me a lot in my future. I will never forget the people I've met here and the things I've experienced here.

I suddenly remembered on the night of my thanks giving in July, Jennifer told us to do what they usually do on Thanks Giving Day. Now I want to do it again: I feel thankful for my parents who brought me to the earth so that I can experience happiness and sorrow in the world, and for those who have ever helped me in my life. I feel thankful for everything.
