Exchange student essay 100 words

English
1 answer:
Sergio039 [100]3 years ago

Answer:

It almost feels like as if it was just yesterday when I was on my own on a plane not really knowing what to expect but excited for what the future had for me. Now I'm back home with a ton of memories, e-mails to answer, and a lot of stories to share. I don't even know where to start now that I'm writing about my experience of being an exchange student in Appleton, Wisconsin for a whole school year.

Well, I've wanted to be an exchange student my whole high school life. I read about summer programs in a brochure from IFS, and I thought then that living somewhere else for a while and having friends from another country would be the coolest thing in the world. I would be on my own, have my own Indiana Jones adventure, and fulfill my dream of having something different. Pretty soon, at the end of my senior year, Mama and I were applying to IFS and we decided that a whole year would give me so much more immersion and would make the experience so much better. I had meetings in the weekends about rules, how to survive, homesickness, etc. Then I got an email. I had a host family! Next thing I knew, I had a flight booked.

I was so excited and happy and I was telling all my friends about it. I was researching about Wisconsin in books and in the Internet. Compared to what I saw on TV and what I experienced when I traveled to places like Los Angeles, California with my family, Wisconsin was different. It was more of farmland and countryside. I lived in Appleton and its population was around 70,000 and I thought it was a small town compared to our Manila. There was no traffic, they only had one major mall, and everything was in close proximity. I didn't even know what to think of the cold weather. I just brought cotton long-sleeved shirts with me. But when winter came, I needed to get a coat. During the winter, the sun would set at 4pm and it wouldn't go up until around 9. There were days when the temperature would go below freezing and I was wearing around 6 layers of clothing just to keep myself warm. I never even blow-dried my hair before. I had to do it every morning after I took a shower because if I didn't, my hair would FREEZE. The thing I liked best about the cold and the snow was being able to ski. People were so excited for me and telling me all their snow stories (since we don't have it in the Philippines). I have never skied in my life either, so I was excited and proud to learn.

“The Texas spirit of fun and hospitality lights up Paseo del Rio, the San Antonio Riverwalk. This  travel destination shimmers with color and light. Along the left bank, two lines of café umbrellas—tropical red, Cancun blue, emerald green, lemon yellow—shelter outdoor diners and adorn the cobblestone walk. Above the rainbow rows of umbrellas, white lights strung between oak trees along the walking path glimmer softly in the dusk.

Miniature lights rim the eaves and roofs of the buildings behind the diners and illuminate the drape of the oak branches bending over them.  

Diners can stay warm on cool, evenings with fajitas and margaritas as they watch the lights of the Riverwalk and the sunset glimmer upon the water. As they watch, a steady flow of trimmed boats putter to midstream from under the bridge on the right side of the river.

On this side of the river, the rock walls and the footbridge showcase the  beauty of the area’s natural elements and earth tones. Lights trace the arch under the footbridge. Luminaries sit atop both sides of the bridge’s stone-grey railings. At the far side of the bridge, more luminaries light the path along the water’s edge.  

People fill the path with laughter and conversation as they stroll beneath trees shimmering with countless lights. All along the river, this canopy of lights buffers the Riverwalk from the buildings rising in the distance. The lights, the good food, the water, the spectacle of color, the festive atmosphere provide a retreat—Texas style!”

In fact, in the second version, the description is nice but lacks the enchantment of details that makes the first one so attractive.  In the first version one can almost feel like if we were in there.  It's fantastic description that motivates us to rush traveling there.

The main difference between revising and editing a text are:

  • Revision involves making an edit of a text to improve on it.
  • Editing involves making changes to a text as part of a writing process.

<h3>What is the meaning of the word "Hysteria"? </h3>

This refers to the emotional state of a person where he is in deep panic and is not thinking clearly.

Hence, we can see that from the complete text, on the 272th page, there is the use of the word "hysteria" which shows the character in panic and makes a foolish decision.
