Since we have arrived interesting things happened. The most exciting until now was the 4th. of July fireworks. I really loved them because in Argentina we do not have that kind of shows, that day was amazing! Another thing that I meet new is the food that is totally different that in Argentina, for example, the times. In Argentina we have lunch at six, then we have lunch at the same time, but dinner is really different. In my country we usually have dinner at ten p.m. or later so is difficult for us to feel comfortable with he dinner's time.
A thing that I really like this week was the Communication Workshop with miss Sanford, she is very nice and funny. The relationship between the student and the teacher is different here too. In Argentina the relation is more respectful and here is more relaxing.
Both, Argentina and U.S.A. have a similar model of education. So, we learned a lot of things about oral and non oral communication, it was really interesting and practical too.
During this week we learned a lot of things about American culture and the frontier history, It is interesting to know about the American culture because I can compare and contrast with my own culture. For example, USA is older than Argentina, so there is more history to learn about. We can compare and contrast differents values too, In both Argentina and USA is important to work very hard, but in America the principal value is the freedom and in Argentina is so important for us to work together. So is interesting to learn about my culture here in America.
Yesterday, we went to Hollywood, it was really amazing, I loved it! I could see the real America, the American's night and other tihngs that we can not see in APU, we went to the Madame Tussaunds' museum where we could see the famous' statues! really, really funny!
Today we are going to the Getty center so I'm going to talk about it the next time!
