So, here i am in USC, prestigious expensive( not important) private school in LA (now, this is important) ! LA, wohooo~~~!!!
It is almost nearly to a month since i have been here, the country i thought would be able to change my life. Leaving hometown going overseas to pursue my study maybe a dream to many and i bet many would do anything just for the chance, but for me, it means leaving my home,my family,my friends and building up an entirely new life in a place i am not used to. It means independence- deciding and doing what i think would be the best for me, with little guidance from friends whom i must be grateful of.
This university i am studying right now is truly a university of diversified culture and background. It's almost like Malaysia, where people of many races lives together. Here, we have many different people from many different countries, we have china chinese, taiwanese, hong kong geh pang yao, koreans, japaneses, singaporeans, indians etc. Apart from the local whites and blacks, almost half of the majority in my university comprises of asians, some of them are american born asians. Its a good and bad thing; good part is ,with asians, i don't feel lonely(haha); bad part is ,with them, i don't really feel i am already in US.
Enough with races, let's talk about how these people look like ( not because they don't look like human that i need to depict them). The people here are very health-conscious. Many of them are at the top shape and many more work hard to gain that. I see many people working out in gym, jogging around campus and playing all sorts of balls...hehe.They are really fit! Nice postures! Muscular,handsome and real strong looking for guys and sexy,slim and gorgeous looking women! Leng zhai and leng lui are almost everywhere here! Everwhere i turn, i see them, it is unavoidable... Even our president addresses us as 'a bunch of good looking people' in his welcoming speech. And reality proved his words being truthful. Because of this, i have cultural shock for the first week as i have never seen this 'scenery' before, felt like i was living in a movie.
( You might wanna SKIP this part if you are allergic to NATURALISTIC depictions of movements and appearance of human in action.)
One more thing here is that if you see half naked guy walking on the street, don't be surprise, it's normal. I have even seen half naked guy jogging and his pants felt like almost dropping off,showing some of the cleavage of his pp....yeww~ disgusting!
oh, and do you remember in movies or dramas, where the girl jogs and her b*****s are shaking vibrantly? It's the reality here. Even some guys,not that i purposely observed, are able to do that.
So, how about the behavior of people here? They are respectful and real matured i must say, as whatever opinions you have,no matter its crappy or not, they will not despise you. And they are really good in giving their opinions, expressing themselves verbally. One thing that i must learn. But they do look less approachable, as if they are in their own world. However, if taken the chance to know them, they are actually kinda friendly.
I am actually writing this in one of the libraries here, they have windows 7 and mac os here and the environment is real cozy.
So, until next time, signing off now and wish you have a good day living your life X)
