Did you figure out what I meant by “wind flat waves quiet?” Omar didn’t. “Wind flat waves quiet” means tranquil; it describes that there is no wind and there is no ripple on the surface of a lake.
I went to North Allegheny High. I was surprised that the school buildings were only one or two floors. My previous school in Shanghai was six floors, but very small. We had only a basketball court and rarely had opportunities to work out.
I spent the first day with the principal. She asked what I like and what classed I wanted to take. I did not know I needed to choose. We as students in China had no choices; all courses had been predetermined by the school. My mother was surprised, too. I could see her confusion when she read the class brochure.
