.J WWW The Pain in Spain sfays Mainly in fhe Plain. Thaf was abouf fhe exfenf of whaf l knew abouf Spain before l wenf fo live fhere for a summer. Whaf i found was more fhan bullfghfing or flamenco dancers - l found warm and friendly people, eager fo share fheir life wifh me and foler- anf of my sfruggles fo say somefhing coheranf in Spanish. Alfhough fhey can 'f drive unfil fhey're 18, Spanish feen- agers offen meef fogefher in faverns fo eaf, falk, and drink because fhere is no drinking age limif. Girls and guys fend fo go ouf in groups, insfead of dafing, and, in place of drag- grng Main , fhey walk fhe 'Loose-o rpicfured herej - which saves a lof of gas. l spenf parf of my fime wifh a fund , o group of guys who roam fhe sfreefs lafe af nighf in medieval clofhes, playing guifars and serenading fheir girlfriends. Thaf was greaf, especially when fhe girls invifed us in for food and wine. Living in anofher counfry can really give you a differenf perspecfive on life in The Unifed Sfafes. Somefimes we fhink, Why doesn'f everyone wanf fo be like us, fo have fhe fhings we have? Now l know fhey have a preffy good life of fheir own. - John Bloedorn LUKKIINILJX' Q A0 Y ,s,. k 773, U Aeggfg-'eg 1, ,fa .W .

The lirsf days in school were very hard for us, buf lofs of people hekned us gef along. lf was very confusing fhaf we mef newpeople in each class. ln our German schools, one group of sfudenfs sfays fogefher in one room, buf fhe feachers and subjecfs change. This way, we pracfically grow up wifh fhaf one group and become very close friends. Anofher difference is fhaf all subjecfs are required. For example, we had fo fake English from Hffh fo af leasf fenfh grade. Dafing is also differenf. lf is nof unusual if a group of four girls and fwo guys go ouf fogefherf buf if you have a dafe, the girl usually pays for herself People here seem fo like sporfs a lof. They Uke fo wafch and give fheir favorife feam much supporf. The sfudenfs in school fake sporfs very seriously and spend a lof of fime pracficing. When we play a game, if is for fun, nof for so much compefifion. lf you wanf fo improve yourself you have fo join a club. We can'f fell whefher life in fhe Unifed Sfafes is beffer fhan Germany or nof, buf we sure enjoy if here. - Gerfje Kunsf and Kirsfen Meyer One imagines fhaf fhe world is like his own counfry. buf if's nof. Uruguay and fhe Unifed Sfafes have very differenf culfures. For example, in Uruguay, my mofher has fhree maids, buf no machine helpers. We can 'f go fo fhe grocery sfore and buy prepared foods,' we make everyfhing ourselves. ln Uruguay, everyone drives however fhe y wanf fo. We don'f have rules of fransif fo obey, as in fhe Unifed Sfafes. ln my counfry, if was summer when lleff - we had 4000 fo M0 Ofemperafures. When l arrived in Denver, if was 00. When lrefurn fo Uruguay dur- ing your summer, if will be winfer in Uruguay, so l will have a whole year of winfer. - Juan Pablo Fernandez . sf HUHJSXE 'XY 2 .
