Life in America --1

Time slipped by without my notice. I’m very surprised that I have been in US for nearly three weeks and only have two days left living in VCU and GRC. Maybe three weeks is not a long period of time at all, but I learned a lot and changed lot during my visit here.
I met a lot of people, not only those lovely and nice interns in VCU, but also students from Fudan University, and our BFSU students whom I never met in our campus. I was great to make those new friends, and I really appreciate our friendship. During my life here my friends give me a lot of help, and we enjoy great fun together. Especially those interns, I used to think that when we in America whom we stay with or talk to would be Chinese students as we were in China, so we couldn’t get chances to experience a real American life. But the interns all devoted lots of efforts to this program, they planned activities for us almost every day and spent most of the time with us. This gave us a great opportunity to get access to American life and gain better understanding of American culture. I really appreciate it.
Besides meeting a lot of people, I also got chance to attend many wonderful lectures from which I learned a lot. The lectures covered the topic of history, politics, business, literature, and also arts and acting ^^ So we were able to get familiar with America from all aspects. Although we couldn’t go deeply in these issues in such a short time, we gained a broad view and experience a new style of teaching in America, questions and comments~ ^_^
In addition, I also had a good time playing here. We’ve been to historical places like Williamsburg and Monticello, natural travel attractions such as VA beach. We went to amusement park, went shopping, canoeing, went to bars, movies, concerts and parties, went swimming and climbing mountains, nearly all kinds of activities. They were both great experiences in my school years and in my whole life. Some day in the future if I have the opportunity to study at graduate school in America, I will definitely back to Richmond to recollect those beautiful memories.
