After having done my semester abroad, I've come to the conclusion that attending school in another country, english speaking or not, will always be difficult. Many people think that because their exchange school teaches in the same language their taught in then everything should be fine. But no, the language may be the same but the usage is different. Just like how from state to state we are able to hear different slangs, pronunciations, and means; here in Hong Kong its the same way only magnified ten thousand times.
