I come to America to improve English and experience American life. Sometimes, I am surprised that there are some diffrences between UWEC students and Korean students.
At first, UWEC students say ‘hi’ and talk when they meet someone who has not seen ever, but Korean students don’t say that with someone who has not seen ever. When I moved in my dorm, I saw American students say 'Hi' each other, but I thought that was because they are friend. But, American students also say 'Hi' to me and then, I realized that they also say that to unfamiliar people naturally.
Secondly, Many UWEC students are not care about their clothes much and usually wear casual clothes, but many Korean students are care about their clothes and makeup so some students wear different style of clothes. In Korea, there are many girls who wear casual clothes in one day and wear skirts and highhills in another usual day although there is not time to make a presentation, but I cannot see that in UWEC university.
Finally, UWEC students are not care about age and they are all friends. but Korean studnets are care about age and they try to polite to older students before they are friendly each other. However, some American students even do not know their friend's age and grade like junior or senior exactly. It was very interesting to me.
