When I first said in my school that I`m gonna be an exchange student, most classmates of mine were very proud of me, and some teachers too, but some were consern. I do remeber the last weeks of the semester. We had two history exams and my teacher said: "Never forget ideas and values of your motherland. You will have oppurtunity to compare and see the word from different sides of wievs. When you come back to school I will ask you what double standart is..." And so on and on. Many people said how young I`m to go out in the world, in foreigen country and they really upset my grandmom. Being here is so different about the way people look at things, valuesexpectations. Schooll. My school is completely different. It`s strickt. Students don`t walk in classes without permision, we stand up when we talk to a teacher in respect. We have exams, our planners and note books checked like veryday. I was supposed to graduate this year, now i hve to go back and study one more year, but it`s worth it.
