very appreciated for your scores, Jake. Please could you remove my warning, every time I saw the red "1", I feel a little bit guilty.

I know you are not the person who has gave me the warning, but could you try it?

Thanks

today i invited a canadian friend Janet to my home. she arrived in my home earlier than me and my daughter received her.when i came back home,my daughter told me that Janet didn't change her shoes. My daughter told me that she asked Janet to change the shoes but Janet just didn't listen to her and said :"I am wearing slippers". she was wearing slippers ,so she must had misunderstood my daughter.

How is the relationship between you and your friend? supposed, not much close, right?

How is the explanation from your daughter? Are you sure it was quite clear? Maybe, the cituation was like:

your daughter:  Please could you wear the slipper( which is inside)?
your friend:    No thanks, I have slipper already.

Basically,we can be straightforward to most US or European ppl. But most times, Chinese ppl alwayls consider more for the international ppl.

Whatever, if you still had a very good night with your friend and your daughter, can we regard the above story as a flavor in our life.

i am quiet easy going.i don't mind at all. she hasn't been in China for long,so definately she doesn't know the Chinese way.
I am quiet happy that my daughter asked her to change her slippers, not me. I can not imagin what she will react if i told her to change her shoes. She is a very nice lady though.

yeah,it is good topic.

I had read some books about cultureshock.In fact, some scientists identify five distict stages of culure shock-"hineymonn phase,rejection phase, regression phase,recovery phase,and reverse culture shock"

And I think culture shock is almost like a disease:it has a cause, symptoms,and a cure. people are overseas may suffer the stages that i mentioned, but some people have much more reactions than others.

So as a matter of fact, please to be kind to yourself all the time that you are overseas. if you do so, you will be a much stronger person, and congratulations, you can adapt to different lifestyle & culture,that is ,you willb e a citizen of the world!

the above pic tell me that I need learn more and more, thanks.  

Let us turn round to culture things:  have you guys realized that most UK ppl don't like eat chicken with head and feet, fishes with head and tail, actually, most such foods with whole body? I have asked them the reason, and the answer is such things look a little bit horrible, they got scared.

For most Chinese, it is quite normal. But...  so different!

congratufuckinglation, you had some taste of cultural difference. that's right, chinese has longer history than american because america is a country without own culture. And they are proud of it and chinese admire that. there are too many silly ass foreigner who come to china to do absolutely nothing but rip off ignorant chinese. just to prove how ignorant chinese are. wake up you chinks. be protective to your own culture, being a little more conservative and assertive is very needed to china nowaday. Do not lose chinese face.
and yes, foreigners also spit, lie, horn, speak loudly, they are human beings just like all of us. their blond hair, blue eyes and hairy leg do not make them special, but rather insufficient evolved.

still,some foreigners are very nice. for me, most of the foreigners i met are nice,especially canadians and australians. so far, no one has disappointed me.
B, an australian girl is interested in social work and she volunteered to teach English in Kenya.
T,a Canadian guy, is very intelligent and knowledgeable. He was one of the top students who were once sent by his government to India for a short time study
J,a canadian guy,whose purpose to come to China is to find a Chinese girl friend, is very nice and gentleman.  He finally married a Chinese lady and now live a very happy life in China.His mother is such a nice lady that I will never forget.

it only means there r both good ppl and bad ppl in everywhere.

I do agree with the fact.
Some girls in China always want to get a foreign boyfriend to show how different/good tasty/... she is! They are very poor, at least in my own opinion. Some girls fall in love with some foreigners, and have a very happy life forwards, because they just want to have a real love as most Chinese girls, congratulation to them, they deserve to have such life!
Yes, wherever you are, please respect yourself. But anyway, every one has own life value, so...
I have some good international friends, and have met a lot of international ppl. It seems it is not easy to distinguish the people's quality just as per countries, mostly, as per their own education and background.
