living in America

Well I just wanted to write down a few of my thoughts on life in America. Lots of people ask me what the biggest differences are between England and the U.S. and it gets kind of hard to remember all the little things that in the beginning were a big deal, but now I don't even think about.
I think at first my biggest shock was the blank expression I would get from people when I spoke! I just couldn't believe that I wasn't being understood, what was wrong with these people? I could understand them!!!
I don't think my little town in the middle of nowhere accent was all that common here in Orem Utah, so eventually I got over it and began to forgive people for their ignorance, after all, I am the alien..... right?
