Tuesday1pm~3pm/Week8-First Draft/Sieun Kim

My house in U.S changed my studying abroad life to a valuable memory. I was a timid child and had passive attitude before I lived in U.S. So I always worried that I won't make many friends in America. But it was different than I expected. Life there gave me a chance to experience variety of things with many new friends. I had lived in an apartment not many things located inside when I had lived in Korea but in U.S, I lived in a house much larger than my apartment in Korea. It was a three-storied house with a swimmimg pool. My room was on the third floor. Since my room was small, there was only a bed setted for me and some dolls I played with. But other rooms were big enough to play. In my study room, there were supplements for art, for example, some drawing books, crayons, markers, and stickers.There also was a computer so I played games and sometimes wrote poems. I often took a bubble bath in the bathroom, cooked in the kitchen and did school assignments sitting on a rocking chair in the living room. In the basement, there were camping equipment, tools needed for house repair thrown on the floor and my father's car. One thing unique in my house was that there was a tree house in the garden. The tree house was decorated similar to an attic in other friends' house. There were a little TV with DVD player, toys and blankets. I climbed up to the tree house whenever I wanted to take a rest and watched a movie. My friends visited my house very often because there were many things to do and could play on my tree house. So it was not difficult for me to have many foreign friends and adjust to new school environment.
