Journal 2

Actually, I have been in USA for 8 months, and I just passed driving test on last Monday. On the beginning days I stayed here, it's a challenge for me to go around because I can't drive. But gradually I'm used to going around by bus. Up to now, I still go to school by bus everyday, and I really like it because I can see and contact with different types of people, besides I also learn something from them.
To me, going around now becomes easier than it was. I can drive, so I can go anywhere I want. The feeling sitting behind the wheel is so cool. I think driving car in USA is not difficult, it's much easier than driving in my country because there is a clear division on the road. The road has many lanes, you just keep your lane and go straight. In contrast, in my country there is no division, so the traffic is complicated and dangerous. It's not easy for foreigners to drive car or ride motorcycles.

Journal 1


Hi everyone. My name is Oanh, but I know it's really hard for you to call me. So you can call me Ann. I'm from Viet nam where have many beautiful beaches. When you have a plan to travel, I hope you will consider coming to my country.
My family has 5 members: my parents, 2 sisters and me. I'm a first born child. That's why I'm here. My parents always want me to get high education, so they let me go to the university here. However, it doesn't mean I don't like to be here. Being here is happiness and luckiness to me.
I like many thing, but the best thing I like is traveling. I like discovering new lands that I have never been before, and meeting other people. I also like reading books. When I was in Vietnam, I used to read a lot of books in Vietnamese. But now, it's hard for me to read English books because it takes me much more time to understand.
