I know it has been since December since I've been here but I really have been busy! I am taking 5 classes this semester :eek:and one of them is cultural anthropology. I have to do an interview with someone from somewhere else but lives in the US now. I have to have this turned in tonight and I really need help! Here's a bunch of questions I came up with early this morning. Don't answer all of them if you don't like, add some new ones if you get into it. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your help.
From what country did you come here?
Where do you live now?
How old were you when you arrived?
What was your first impressions? Were they different from what you thought they would be? How was the US different from your prior thoughts on what it would be like?
How were you treated initially?
Did people, upon finding out you were from somewhere else, ask you odd questions or treat you oddly? Can you explain?
Was it difficult to find housing and the things you needed?
Did you run into any prejudice? How do you feel about that at this point in your life?
If you were to be able to do it again, would you do it differently? How would you change your first experiences in a new country? What kind of advice would you give a person coming here for the first time?
What about the US do you love most? What do you dislike most? How do you feel about it here?

I've been sitting a swim meet all weekend and am getting a very late start.
