Study abroad experience #1 (permalink) Wed May 12, 2010 9:20 am   Study abroad experience
 

I am very lucky to know this very useful URL. The man who responds my writing must be a very kind person :) anyway, I would like you to check my writing whether I have answered the following question or not and please make some corrections if necessary and off course I need to know the score :).. Thank's nice man :)

QUESTION:
YOU ARE PLANNING TO STUDY ABROAD. WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WILL LIKE AND DISLIKE ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE? WHY? USE SPECIFIC REASONS AND DETAILS TO SUPPORT YOUR ANSWER.

Studying abroad is one of some people's dreams. It is not easy to get the opportunity to study in other countries. Some people believe that they will get more benefit by studying abroad compared to studying in their own countries. I definitely agree with that opinion. However, despite I believe that I will enjoy studying abroad, I have to ready for something that may occur. The following explanations elaborate the probable experience that I think I will like and dislike.

First of all, I do believe that I will like most of the experience when I was studying abroad. While I am studying abroad I will learn the local culture which is different from my own country's culture. Since I plan to study in Japan, I am sure that I can learn more Japanese culture there such as the language, the art, and the custom. For me, learning Japanese is always interesting.

Even though there will be a lot of enjoyable experience, based on some of my friends' experiences, I will face a few difficulties abroad. One of the problems that I probably face is the food. As I will go to study in Japan, I have to get used to eat Japanese food such as sushi. Indeed, I do not like sushi. I cannot imagine how I can eat something that is not cooked. However, my friends said that I have to familiar with it.

To sump up, studying abroad is always fascinating for me. A lot of great experience that I probably get will shape my self to be a knowledgeable person. However, the experience will not always sweet. I have to ready for something that I dislike.

Studying abroad is one of dreams OF MANY PEOPLE. It is not easy to get the opportunity to study in other countries. Some people believe that they will get more benefit by studying abroad(,) compared to studying in their own countries. I definitely agree with that opinion. However, despite THAT, I ALSO believe that I will enjoy studying abroad(.) I have to ready for /something/ANYTHING/ that may occur. The following explanations elaborate the probable experienceS that I think I will like OR dislike.

First of all, I do believe that I will like most of the experienceS when I AM studying abroad. While I am studying abroad I will learn the local culture which I PRESUME will be VERY different from my own country's culture. Since I plan to study in Japan, I am sure that I can learn more ABOUT Japanese culture WHILST I AM there(,) such as the language, the art, and the customS.
For me, learning Japanese HAS always BEEN interesting.

Even though there will be a lot of enjoyable experienceS, based on some of my friends' experiences, I will ALSO HAVE TO face a few difficulties WHILE THERE. One of the problems that I WILL probably face is the food. As I AM goING to study in Japan, I WILL have to get used to eatING Japanese food such as sushi. Indeed, I do not like sushi. I cannot imagine how I can eat something that is not cooked. However, my friends said that I WILL BECOME familiar with it.

To SUM up, THE IDEA OF studying abroad HAS always BEEN fascinating TO me. A lot of THE great experienceS that I WILL probably HAVE WILL get will REshape ME to beCOMING a MORE knowledgeable person. However, the experience will not always BE ENJOYABLE. I have to BE ready for ANYTHING that I MIGHT POSSIBLY dislike.
