Click on any rule below to see how I broke it when I moved to America (except the ones about skirts & socks).
These were the physical steps I took towards my new culture. It was exciting at first, but that didn't last long. I ended up feeling very confused and depressed during high school. Although American culture is well known in Korea, actually blending into it was a difficult experience. Even now, after 10 years, I still feel like there are two points of view of the world fighting inside my head. At first, it was frustrating. But now I like having the wider perspective.
