Glow Dance

Last Friday, I joined the Glow Dance Night held on our campus. I was interested in it because I wanted to try something different at the school. Also, I hoped I could meet some new friends there to enlarge my social network. I was looking forward to the night at first. I made up and dressed nicely. However, at the end of the night, out of my expectation, I hadn't gotten any new pals. Instead, I knew more than the language, cultural and national barriers does exist between the Americans and me. These make it difficult to get into the life of the school.
On that night, I didn't feel nervous in the hall at first. Yet, when I stepped inside the dance floor, I saw people around me in groups or pairs, dancing with the pace of  rock heavy music, regardless of people around. Since I was there by myself, it seemed that no one noticed me. I was totally freak- out because of  being alone. Anyway, I tried to enjoy dancing by myself. No girl had intentions to be friend with me. A few boys tried to talk with me. Yet, they spoke a bit fast, mixing lots of slang. They found no fun talking with me, and they were just gone! So, I was quite embarrassed and felt uneasy that night.
It was an unforgottable night for me. I felt like I have to improve my English as fast as possible, so that I can get into the life in the U.S. and no longer like living on the lonely planet alone.
