When I first came here, I was afraid to speak in english. However, gradually I got in touch with english and my fear about english dissapeared. In addition, I didn't know about the culture of America, so when people say "How are you?" it is difficult to say immediently "Fine". Of caurse, although I still have many troubles behaving correctly in Chicago, I'm learning a number of things about America culture in a class.
I am so glad, it is a process!

You do?? Actually, now I'm in a trouble with "How are you?". It's really hard to anwer. Especially when I feel tired, I don't want to say bad, frankly. So I have to lie that "I'm fine". It bothers me sometimes.
