Abdul asked the students what their favorite mode of transportation was and most replied a Porsche 9285. Abdul was confused since he had never heard of a species of camels by that name. When he asked what their favorite group was, he was told R.E.M. Abdul thinking that a new terrorist group had arisen, almost phoned home immediately, but was persuaded not to, when the students explained that it was a musical group. Abdul really didn't like the fact that Ronald Reagan was the fa- vorite male idol in the world. Once Abdul became more accus- tomed to the American tradition he was able to understand what they did. He found that most students lis- tened to ZOO 98, because it would play more of Walk This Way by RUN DMC than any other station. Abdul discovered on weekends stu- dents would attend football games or see a movie like Ferris Bueller's Day .. f gffaf .Q 'fa ., a Ni. ma aw LT f f W ..

Abdul also learned that the Mount was not just a hill but a nickname for Mount St. Mary's High School for Girls. Abdul had a hard time under- standing some of the favorite past times like snow skiing in Colorado, seeing a concert at Reunion Arena in Dallas, or even water skiing on Greers Ferry Lake. He did like the fact that few people enjoyed going to Chernobyl for their Spring Break. On weeknights, Abdul learned that most of the students would watch Wheel of Fortune, mainly to see Vanna White, then would go and eat their favorite food, an Italian din- ner. Afterward they would read the latest edition of Sports Illustrated and watch 20f20. They might even go shop at Dillards or at Camelot Music. Abdul left with a basic grasp on the culture. It was quite different from his great homeland of Libya. One thing he never understood was why the students would eat some- thing called Fruit Loops for break- fast, or watch a TV show called Max Headroom. ' PS'-L .- g fl f A N.
