  The first day I arrived at Honolulu, I felt more depressed than excited One of my senior (资格老的)coworkers who picked me up at the airport told me that it would probably take twice the energy and more   1   to get my Ph. D degree of Law in the University of Hawaii   2   with at home. Well, to a girl who doesn’t expect to pass all her   3   years as a student, this was really an emotional attack. But I made my way towards my first   4   place. As a matter of fact, it’s a small single room in a house shared with a young Chinese couple, whom I communicated with via email before I came here.   5   it’s very noisy with a highway nearby and cost me $350 per month, I should say I was   6   enough because many other new students had to sleep in their friends’ sofas or stay at expensive   7  . Housing in Honolulu is extremely tight, if you want to   8   a quiet, nice and comfortable place, you should pay no less than $600 per month.

  The first morning when I woke up, I heard the barking of dogs from Hawaii Humane Society (a place for people to adopt pets)across the street. Then I   9   that my new life had begun. Some   10   things happened in the first week as follows:

  I couldn’t tell dimes or quarters from the five-cent coins,   11   I insisted on using bills in the supermarket.   12   , so many changes were accumulated (积累)in my wallet.

  I learned to   13   my first cake and got much praising from my   14   on our potluck party, which expected every participant (参加者)to   15   some self-made snacks to share.

  I caught only two words —“president” and “football”—on my   16   class lecture, though the lecturer appeared to be an excellent joke teller.   17  , I can’t follow his English with a strong German accent.

  Anyway, I experienced so many small   18   as I mentioned above. Anyone who chooses to study   19   should be prepared to taste pains and   20   a lot.
