Biggest shock

My biggest shock was new culture and communicate
I came to the USA and everything was new. I was in the new world and the new weather .I came in March 1999 the weather was cold and sunny .I would go out side and it was cold .I was not comforted the weather .I was thinking lick sunny and I was farthing .
Communication was very difficult I said the same words different accent, so it was difficult to communicatioen and to Learn.
My sleeping time was changed I couldn't sleep that night and I slept to the day . Between Ethiopia and USA there is eight hours different . Ethiopia was eight hewer advents’ the winters was nine hours .
Every one was work .I was staying home I didn’t have ideas on how to apply forJobs. Took bus and shopping was difficult .My country I woke ever day but I couidn't wake to the cold and winter
