Hi  again to all my friends:

*I should confess that before coming to US ,I thought I know English, but now I don’t understand much things, they speak fast and really fluent with Midwest accent, so communicating with Americans is one way for learning English:

 

*I went to Missouri anthropology museum ,they gave me a tour ,I just got some little points of people who were showing us the museum ,but I behaved like a smart girl, who understand word by word , shaking my head and the poor tour leader like a teacher who look at studious students much more , , just looked at me!!

*there was a program in Women Center ,for women in university to knit, yeah women gathered together and knit, I was really surprised ! because  I couldn’t say some simple words,  I wanna teach one of them about Persian cooking “lobia polo” but unfortunately I couldn’t translate some simple words…… of course don’t become so hopeless, I learned one word Jthey use it a lot its: wow again wowww and again wowww ……

*there is a famous sentence in this town,they say if you are bored with the weather just wait five minutes,yeah the weather is really changeable,now its raining, fifteen minutes later it becomes sunny and so warm,two hours after that it becomes windy and it continues…….

And now its time for writing,my husband suggests me to write in English and I accept. pls don’t accuse me to forget parsi language or sth like that,it really helps my english skills.

ok because its long time no writing I pointed some interesting ones:

1- go to the movies and watch” ye habbe ghand” it’s a real image of Iranian culture.

2- I am in the USA ,its really hard to leave your family,but its life, when my family ,relatives and I were going towards imam airport ,I was crying and so sad ,but all the other cars that were coming with us, start horning !!! yeah they believed  we are taking a bride to the airport ,its time for happiness ,it makes me really happy.

3-during my flights towards US, I was surprised with flight attendants ,I think, most flight attendants in Iran are young ,but in klm(Netherlands) and delta(USA) airways,I saw such middle aged or better to say old ones who were serving us, one of them was just like my grandma!!

4-in USA airways , free shopping is so usuall, it was laughing for me.we don’t have such a thing in Iran.for example after serving, flight attendants take sth in their hands sth like a dull, magazine or drink , move around the plane and say free shopping……..free shopping…………….!!!!!

5-while I was in a plane from Memphis to Missouri CO, they announced that if one of the passengers do a favor for them they would be appreciate, they offered if one of the passengers leave the plane,they will give her or him 300 dollars and a night hotel and tomorrow night he could take this flight. flight attendant says: one night vacation in Memphis, a passenger says sth like: in Paris ,flight attendant says : in paris??? The passenger answered: no  a pair of us! and all starts laughing and finally one lady accepts this offer and the plane took off!

6- my first experience while I was crossing the street was interesting. the street was not crowded at all, and my husband and I were crossing,suddenly I saw two cars one in right side and another in the left side, stopped in 4 meters far from us, yeah they were stopping for us, wow we never have sth like it in Iran ,they really respect passengers.

7- I went to a bank for opening a checking account. after 5 minute the bank clerk showed me some papers about Iran sanctions ,and said you are non resident alien we could not open an account for you!!!
