I came here back in 1996, and if nothing else, the high school blew my socks off!
I came here in 10th grade, middle of the term. After going through some paper work, a smal orientation and picking classes, I was sent to my 3rd period class, English Lit (or English II). Well I was sitting there, totally dumb founded. I had never imagined girls in America were so pretty. And they were wearing such **tight** clothes!!
Well the lunch bell rang, and I didn't know what to do. I was looking around, and this girl (She is probably the prettiest girl I have seen) came up to me, and asked me if I was new to the school. I told her I was, and she invited me to have lunch with her and her friends. Ofcourse I agreed.
She seemed very fascinated to meet me. She asked me all about where I am from, how did I come to US, and how do I like it. We got lunch and sat down at a table. Soon, her 7 female friends joined us. They were all so excited to meet me (???). I was getting asked all sorts of questions, about my country, classes, where I live and what not. One of the girls, even bought me ice cream 🙂
This was just like a movie! I come to the US, and first day of school, I am surrounded by girls. I couldn't believe it. It was just like an episode of some sitcom, or a Disney kids show. After lunch, the girl and one of her friend showed me around school. The school was exactly like I had imagined an American school would, huge, nice looking and full of hot chicks.
Well I stayed friends with her for 3 more days, after which I might have said something she didn't like and quit talking to me. I don't know what I did. During class on the 3rd day, power went out. It was just totally pitch black. Everyone was chatting and what not. The girl asked me if I wanted to come sit by her. I was half sleepy and I think I rudely said "NO". After that, she never talked to me. I still don't know why.
Other than that, I literally turned red, when I saw a girl and guy kissing. I had NEVER seen anyone kiss in real life, except in movies. Let's just say that it was a unique experience seeing that. Also, I was quite amazed to see Asian girls. I had never seen such pretty Asian girls in real life (only in martial arts movies), or even imagined one. Not to say that other girls were any less pretty, but still.
Something else which also baffled me was the cars in the student parking lot! Most of these cars were something very rich people drove back where I was from, and felt really proud to do so. Here, kids were driving Lexus' and Acuras. Not to mention that some kids even drove Corvettes and totally pimped out Supras.
I will probably never forget this experience. Although, if I could go back and change one thing, I would change the clothes I wore, and get a new haircut!. I am sure I must have looked like a complete dork.
