You want to know about my staying in America, right? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience study here.
In China, I had English classes five times a week since the fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to a school in Connecticut. When I first studied English, I was told to say, “I am fine.” when people say “How are you ?” But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good.” or “I am tired.” One day , someone greeted me with “What’s up ?” It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.
Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.
To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan. However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter.” I also surprised by how hard-working US students are. In China, schoolwork is almost everything , so we study hard . But here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music.
The kids here are so talented, I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.

In the early 1900s, Carol Ryrie Brink lived with her grandmother Caddie on a tiny farm in Idaho. The farm was a great place to live. Besides wonderful tall trees, it had cats, chickens and a horse. Carol often rode the horse through the streets of town.
Even so, Carol was sometimes lonely. She would climb to the top of her favorite tree and make up stories to cheer herself up. Her favorite part of the day was when Grandmother Caddie would sit with her and tell stories about her and her brothers.
Carol loved the stories so much that when she grew up, she decided to write a book about them. Thousands of children throughout the world have read and loved her book Caddie Woodlawn.

Imagine getting the chance to go camping for five days. It would be an adventure in the wild. You could row on a lake every day and leave your smartphone at home. Would you want to try this?
In June, four teenage girls from Minnesota, US, went camping in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. They had a great time – even without their smartphones.
Julia Ruelle, 16, put the group together. Earlier this year, she won an essay contest held by a company. The award was a five-day camping adventure with up to three friends. No parents or guides would be there. This award was supposed to encourage kids to be less dependent on their smartphones.
Ruelle had been to the area before, but she had always gone with her parents. Sharing the experience with friends would be very different. She invited three friends: Anna Wander, Madeline Wilson, and Julianna Torelli.
They came up with a daily plan. “We would wake up early every day. We were done paddling by noon. We ate lunch at the camp. Then it was time for hammocks , reading, writing, making friendship bracelets, talking and napping,” Ruelle said.
“I’m a lot less worried about things,” Wander said when asking how she felt without her cellphone. Her favorite thing to do was to lie in her hammock and look at the lake. Torelli enjoyed cooking. She made blueberry pancakes and sandwiches.
No one felt hungry or homesick. “Mental health can be improved so much. It really helps to get away your smartphones and return to nature.” Ruelle said.
