It is no secret that Cebu City is swarmed with people coming from different parts of the globe; Americans, Japanese, Chinese, Koreans, to name but a few. Having grown up in a place where a scenario like this is totally unusual; these people arouse my interest and they really bring excitement in me. I have seen a number of them many times, but never had I got the chance to talk to them or to get to know them face to face, eye to eye, side by side. I have been dreaming and figuring this out for so long and I never thought that this dream would be granted and handed to me in a silver platter, in such an unexpected circumstance last January 7, 2012, Saturday. A dream came true, should I say.
I got the chance to have a friendly interview with a Korean student named Byun Jae Hoon (Korean name) or Jay (English name). He is 24 years old and a native of Seoul, Korea. Listening to music, playing soccer, and swimming are the things he loves to do. He only has one word to describe Philippines and that is "beautiful". He loves the beaches here.
This interview taught me and showed me the idea of cultural diversity; how important it is to develop awareness of individual culture; and how to adjust with this individual in order to communicate effectively. Both of us did not come over on the same ship, but we are in the same boat so we have to build harmony with each other to reach the shore peacefully.
The best thing that made me so grateful about this first foreign interface is that, it is not only a "dream came true" but it is also something I can learn from and I can look back into with a smile painted on my face.
good way of expressing your thought here but the flow of idea is abrupt. It is like a fast forward then slow phasing then forward again.
