I arrived in New York two weeks ago. I am writing my diary in English because my English teacher Rachel says it is a good way to practice English. So far, I like New York and my school. I have three classes a day. Most of my classmates come from Japan, South Korea, Spain, Germany and Australia. There aren’t many Chinese students, so I have to use English most of the time. I am learning a lot! I am living in student housing, and I have my own comfortable room. Thursday, October 20

My English is hopeless! I was on the bus this morning and a man spoke to me, but I hardly understood him. I was so embarrassed (尴尬的). Why is my English improving so slowly?

I like them, but sometimes I can’t understand them very well. I think I’m feeling homesick (想家的). I miss my friends and family. Thursday, October 27
