| 15 years old from
Bankok- Thailand, to Arp- Texas. Her school in Thailand is called "Triamudom Sulesa School, M 4" In her spear time, she likes to watch movies, and her favorite movie is Legally Blond. Now, when she is her in Arp, Texas, she is staying with Mr. & Mrs. Crouch, which she describes to be very nice people. Her host mum likes to go shopping with her during the weekends, and they like to go hunting during the fall and this Christmas, they are going to take her to Arizona. Some of the things that Yim is doing her in America which she isn't used to doing, is riding with the school bus, she also thinks that Arp is very different, since this is the countryside. She says that it is peaceful and fine in Texas, and that people are friendly, and she is not used to shake hands and give hugs when she is meeting new people, in Thailand they are folding their hands between their chest, which they are calling to "Wai". Activities make the students join the classes, and she is doing more sports here, than she was doing in Thailand, and she thinks that sports are a great opportunity to make friends, and be a part of the American community. Yim wanted to be an exchange student, so she could improve her english, and she wanted to get an "Texian" accent, and she doesn't have the same opportunity in Thailand, because everybody speaks Thai. |
