American Public Transportation

In China,there is an old saying ,says if you want to be rich,mend roads first. The firse time I arrived at Los Angeles,the strongest impression is there are so mang cars,but only few people.All roads were filled with speeding automobiles.America is the most developed country in the world,it has the best roads.Driving a car here is pretty convinent.
When I arrive in Fullerton,a lot of parkings come to my sight.Whatever you are a student or a professor,driving home is so commen that nobody will be surprise at it.
I lived with a friend of mine two weeks ago,but now I just moved into a nearby apartment .Because I haven't got a driving licence,I ride a bicycle to school everyday.But I plan to buy a car in three months,because I think it is much too inconvenient if you don't drive a car.In the USA,cars are like our legs,you can go nowhere if you don't have legs.
From my perspective,transportation here goes a little bit extremely.There are so many cars but very few buses and subways.It may be difficult to say whether this situation is benefit or harmful.On one hand,it is commen for residents to drive to work or home,cars make their life handy.On the other hand,little public transportation brings much trouble to international students like us.It's impossible for us to buy a car in the first several weeks.We must endure the inconvenience for couple of days.
In my hometown,there are much public transportation as well as many cars,it is convenient for most people,including residents and students.Public transportation is pretty cheap,taking subway only costs 2 Yuan.you can go nearly everywhere by public transportation.However,there may be much more traffic jams in China,because of too many buses and bikes.
So, I think it is not easy to say which transportation system is better,they both have advantages and disadvantages.What is more important is to take advantage of strong point and improve our weak point. Only in the way,can we make our life better and more colourful!

I have read Helen's and Leah's journals.

A Sunny Girl Called Sally

Hi!everybody,my name is Sally,I'm from Beijing,the capital of China .I have been here for two weeks and begin to adapt the life in America.I like living here because of the sunshine and beautiful sights.
My hobby is sport,I like basketball,diving and swimming very much,but my favorite sport is gymnastics.Though there are many perfect gymnastics players in China,I like Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin best!Besides sport,my another hobby is travelling,there are plenty of places of interest in China,especially in Beijing.You are all welcomed to come to Beijing,come to China!
My dream is to run my own business in either China or America.Before coming here,I opened a on-line shop at http://www.taobao.com.%20i/ sold many kinds of goods for pets,including pets clothes,pets food,pets medicine and so on.This is just for hobby.I am interested in dogs.However,my dream is to run my own business,that is why I come here to study economics.After this American Language Program,I will begin to study master's courses in this University.
I think I am a brave girl,but I 'm afraid of snack.I see it is a horrible animal.Last time I went to the zoo with my friends,I cried when I saw lots of snack.,a lovely rabbit was among them,it was the food for those unly snacks!What a pity!
I am a sunny girl who like making friends.When you are in help,please do not forget me!Thank you~
