Blog assignment 4
Part1
Answer: According to my experience, I could totally understand why Liu's need to be with other Chinese. His need to be with other Chinese is just a common reaction. When you enter a unique environment where has a different and strange culture compared with the one you have get used to, it is easy for people to get confusing. Facing so many problems, such as language misunderstanding and custom differences, people prefer to find a more familiar environment. Therefore, Liu want to get along with Chinese for releasing the problems.
No, i have not the similar experience with Liu. Though I also come from a another country, I love to get along with new American friends and learn their culture. So I would like to spend my time with American rather than Chinese.
The people who need to be with other people from my country are trying to protect themselves. I do not think this is the best chose for international students to protect themselves. As we all know, the aim we come here is not only for get a degree of UD, but also learn the skills of communication and learn American culture. If you just connect with the people who come from the same country with you ,you will never get new experience and learn the culture. Although it is really difficult to get familiar with new environment, the difficulties could make us grow up rapidly. In my opinion, American are so nice, so do not afraid to chat with them or ask them for help. I promise if you try it, you will love to make friends with American.
