以下是引用cinderellaaa在2008-6-7 17:13:00的发言：可是不是每方面都要show额咯，我是本着入乡随俗的原则滴～学习上肯定是尽力摆脱平庸姿态．．． Just be yourself. The thought of 入乡随俗 to force yourself to wear what other people wear is just silly. People seriously don't care at all and will not appreciate your effort. I don't see ANY advantages of doing so. After all, you are just another typical Chinese to them. 学习摆脱平庸姿态? So what? That means nothing at all. Everybody knows Chinese can study well. In fact, paying too much attention to study is a very common and serious problem for Chinese. I have seen many people with 4.0 GPA in US. They are still losers to me because the only thing they know is how to study by themselves. They have very few American friends and they don't know how to socialize with other people. Not surprisingly, they can not find a job here after they graduate because frankly speaking, they are not part of the American world. After all, studying is not your only goal here. Learning how to interact with people, making friends and experiencing the different culture are just as important. Of course, I am not saying everything 入乡随俗 is bad. In fact, doing what other American normally do such as going to party, going to bar and going to movie theater are good ways to start making friends and learning how to socialize with American people. Having a good appearance will give you an edge when it comes to interacting with people and making people notice you. This is a good way to start being popular and start your success in America. On the other hand, even though dressing beautifully is beneficial, you don't have to do it. But if you have already get used to do it in China, why do you need to change your style? Do you know why American wear jeans and T-shirts? Because they are lazy. That's all. Jeans and T-shirts are convenient for them to wear and do the things they normally do at school. I hardly see girls having makeup at all at school. But when it comes to partying and dancing at Disco, I see almost every girl wearing mini skirt and having makeup.
