Writing assignment #5: Your First Day or Week in Houston
Write about your first day or week here in Houston. Did you have any unusual, funny, or difficult experiences? What were your first impressions and reactions? Whom did you meet?
My first day and my first week in Houston were indelible. I was sleeping :-)) because time differs between Almaty and Houston for 13 hours. I merely went to Galleria once, but my impressions about that trip were not good; there were too much gays. In exUSSR to be a gay is the huge shame. That's why seeing them wasn't pleasure.
When I first came here before 9 months, the biggest problem that I faced is sleeping. This problem was very hard for me because I used to sleep only in my home. Also, I used to sleep with my own pillow and my own bed. The First two months I couldn't sleep very well. Sleeping is the only problem that I faced since I got here.
This is my fifth time come to America and third time come to Houston. My first time in Houston was about 10 years ago. So I remember nothing right now. Maybe excited, maybe a little bit strained. But this time, I just felt like normal. Nothing hard for me!~
My first week in Houston is not good because I arrived Houston just before the Hurricane Ike. That's why my first week in Houston is too boring. I spend all my week just eating and sleeping but now I am getting used to live in Houston and I like to be here.
Actually, this is the first time I came to America. I arrived here on Sep. 3rd, and I remembered when the airplane landed on Houston, the first reaction was fear. I didn’t know how a new life would be here, and how to cope with everything by myself. After relieving the fear, I just expected the life here. Everything for me was new .I tried to acclimatize myself to living in a new city. Now, I have met a lot of friends here, and also learnt different cultures. I’m happy for coming here.
my first week in the States was very disappointed. I arrived in september the seventh, 3 day before the hurrican; no electricity no where to go and even worst, the ATM machines didnt work.(you can imagin the rest)
My first two days in Houston was in the chinatown because I didn't know too much English that time. I thought I couldn't live in a place in which nobody could speak Chinese. But after that two days, I moved to campus. I had to use English to ask something or to ordered what I wanted to eat. I couldn't understand what they were talking or what I could say. That was a hard time to me.
I came to Houston around 18 months ago.My first week was great. I really like to see new places. On my second day in Houston, I took a bus but I didn't know where the bus was going.I took it just to discover some places but I got lost =) It was really fun.(But only first and second month was fun. Now it's kind of boring) =)
the first day,in fact it is the first night because i came to Houston at 10 pm, i was anxious and tired since i lost my hand-carried luggage at the airport. i had sent it accompanied with my sent luggage when i transited at the Los Angeles airport. after claiming, the lady at the airport told me that i had to wait for the next day in order to know exactly where it is. As reaching my room, i slept when i was arranging all my stuff. my first day was not interesting at all
