Life is not as expected.

Before I came here in the US, I was worried about how my life is going to be like. Being away of my family for such a long time, was my first new experience. My first days here in the US were kind oh weird for me; I was half excited and half nervous. During our first week, we went to a place called Dry Gulch. There we spend 3 days in what was called Earn Your Wings (E.Y.W). Actually, E.Y.W takes a week: It is a time when all freshmen gather together to know each other. They do several things to keep forgetting that they are away of their family, maybe. After E.Y.W, we had another week of Orientation; I started to experience the American life: Pizza was my favorite food, I tried ice-cream for the first time, hot dogs, hamburgers,... The food did not taste good for me, I asked myself if I will , one day, be familiar with that kind of food, briefly I did not like the food during my first days.
Now it is the first week of classes. I was really worried of how I am going take my all classes in English which was a new language for me. Since my primary school until I finished my high school, I took all my classes in French; except, the English class that I started to take in high school. Calculus and Bible class were my favorite; Programming was a little harder for me. It is because I was not much familiar with computers; I did not even work with any software before. I was about to quit my major (Computer Engineering), but I remembered one word that the Minister of Education (Jeanne D’ Arc Mujawamariya, in Rwanda) told us before we left our country. She said:" Never give up." .Yeah, never give up. I tried to be away of giving up, until I finished my first semester. And I think I did pretty well during my first semester, Things became completely different than expected!
