I’m sorry that you are leaving so soon but I am glad that you have had the opportunity to get to know an American family.
On Saturday, I went to Northern Virginia with my roommate. I remain only 2 weeks befor I leaving. So I want to say goodbye to my roommate’s family. Anyway, when we arrived her house, her brother was walking with his dog. We wanted to walk together. By walking together, I was talking with her brother. He is 18, but he already entered colleage, and he said he is taking classes. I was confused a lot. Becase, in Korea, we enter a university when we are 19. But he is sophomore. So I asked when did you start to go school at first. We go to school at 7 except preschool. He said he went to school when he was 5. And semester starts in fall, but, in Korea, our semesters start in spring. After that, I noticed that my roommate graduated in this summer. During walking with dog, almost 1 hour, we were talking a lot about differences between Korea and America. I will miss my roommate’s family after I leaving here.
