South African Journey

What American people should know about South Africa

We don’t ride around on elephants. We don’t live in bushes. We don’t have lions as pets. We have one of the best constitutions in the world. Most of us are not polygamists. Although we have them but we stick to our cultures. We have great democracy. Theft and crime is a problem but it’s not at evry corner and we are working towards fixing it. We have great tourist attractions and Mandela is not our only tourist attraction. We all accept that we are different and are individuals. We are a rainbow nation. We try our best in sport and everything we do. That is a summary of South Africa.

My interpretation of American teenagers.

They try to much to be “all that” in other words to be popular. They into things teenagers are not supposed to be into like alcohol, drugs, parties, and  sex. Sex to them is a big deal. They back chat; they worry to much their weight; they worry to much about their looks, etc. High school and college seems to be the time they decide to control themselves and not listen to anyone. The popular pick on the less popular. They want a lot of attention from the opposite sex, they even forget about school and studies. And they want cars at very young ages, but then again every country is miss understood when it comes to certain things.
