Cto him. I thought that Lynne would pay because she had invited me. I arrived at the restaurant exactly on time.
I'd been told that Americans expect you to be on time. Lynne and I sat at a table in the corner of restaurant
and a waitress came and took our order.
The dinner was a great success. I talked a lot about Saudi Arabia and Lynne told me all about herself. After
two hours, the waitress finally came and asked if we wanted one check or two. Lynne said two. We went to
the cashier and Lynne paid her check. I was embarrassed (尴尬) when the cashier gave me my bill. I had no
money to pay for my meal. Then I had an idea. I pretended to look for something in my pockets and said, "Oh!
I forgot my wallet! Can I call my roommate, please?" The cashier showed me where the phone was and I
quickly called my roommate. In a few minutes, he arrived with some money, but he couldn't hide how he felt.
He laughed all the way home. Now, I think it's funny too, but at that time I was terribly embarrassed. I thought
that an invitation to have dinner in the United States meant the same thing as that in China. I guess you have to
understand that your customs are only your customs. When you visit a foreign country, you have to learn about
their customs, too.
