Coming To America

Why did I come to the United States of America? Practically Platteville? I have many reasons that are considerable to choose the path that I am on now. These factors changed my whole life from one direction to another. I honestly cannot imagine myself doing what unlucky enough people have to do, which is studying locally. I was lucky enough to study abroad and to improve my life skills. Studying abroad was one of the dreams that I really lived and planned for. Because of the impact it will take, it was my first and main reason of why I am currently in the United States of America. Along with the function of studying, there are varieties of advantages that come along with it. As a person, I am most likely to be a better person by adjusting

Another impact that I will gain is to be a more responsible man. Living away from family can be challenging, but it sure will help me out to be a more responsible person at some point of my time abroad. Because the United States of America is my destination, I get to master a second language along with Arabic. Being bilingual is tremendously beneficial. Along with these factors there are many more advantages to be listed. But, theses rewards are not hugely important as what I listed previously but they are important. Another reward is building friendships with others, either friends from my country or friends from USA, or friends from other nationalities. At the same time, my expectations were different from the reality. When it was the first time that I came to the US, I felt it was something very different from other places I have been to. I have traveled to many places from east to the west of the world, but none of these places are similar to the US. What impressed my vision is that it is a very vast country to the point that when a person travels from east to west of the US would feel it is a different country because the accents and structure of landscapes are

This is a big thing to me, because I believe when a person travels to another country where totally another culture practiced there, it will positively influence him or her because of the impact it will take. To me, I found myself now being a different person than what I was 4 years ago. What is around me is a big influence on me. Moving to another country where it is way different from my background, gives me a better picture of how I perceive other actions and reactions of people, because now, I understand how the culture affects a person and affects the lifestyle of him or her. I remember one time , I awaked up at 12pm and I was hungry, it was the football week in the College I used to study there before Platteville, so iwent to the stadium and I saw a cafeteria over there, I stooped and asked the casher “ do you guys accept credit card ?” he said “ we only do cash” a mother of a student where saided to me with her children told me “ you don’t have cash” I told her “ I only have a credit card” then she said “ your are age of my san here in the university, let me buy what you want” she was so generous with me and she bought me hotdogs and soda. The US is a vast country, and country of opportunities, there is more diversity here in the US than Saudi Arabia, in terms of religion and race. So, having around me a different people would help me to
