End of the Module

Okay, laugh all you want, but honestly what better way to really know America than to speak to Americans themselves? I remember when I was in elementary school and we were all given pen-pals from far-away states; it was so cool to talk to someone who lived a very different life from my own. Sure we both went to school and had families and such, but even within America our customs were different from each other's. My younger sister Rebecca had the same thing when she was in first grade.

I know that I have learned more from actually BEING in England and speaking to real English people than I ever could have from watching Bridget Jones's Diary or reading Harry Potter. So, maybe in the future, an assignment can be to go on facebook, find an American to become friends with, and see where it goes.

Being an American myself, I did enjoy being in this class so much, especially the small group. I felt like I learned so much from you guys just from listening to your opinions and ideas, debating back and forth about different topics, and I liked being able to throw my own personal knowledge in there occasionally. I hope to see all of you again someday soon. Until then, take care. :)
