After dinner, when she returned to the dormitory, Wen Jin opened the WeChat video chat on her mobile phone and began to call her mother.

After a while, the smiling faces of mom, dad and brother appeared on the phone screen. Wen Jin shouted loudly: "Mom, Dad, Doudou, I arrived at school early this morning, and it has been less than 48 hours since I left you, but I feel like I miss you so much!" ”

When mom and dad saw their daughter's happy and excited face, they knew she loved her new school. My mother asked with concern: "Xiao Jin, the first time I took a plane to such a far place, were you scared on the way, did the transfer go well?" Why didn't you get in touch with your family sooner? You don't know, at night, your dad and I look at our phones every 5 minutes, and we can't sleep at all, for fear of missing your WeChat or phone calls. ”

"Mom, don't worry, everything is going well on the road. Actually, I've been thinking about you for a long time, but counting the time, it's still late at night over there, so I've waited until now to video with you. Wen Jin smiled and continued: "However, next time I will no longer have to serve unaccompanied, I will be laughed at by my classmates." As soon as I arrived at the Boston airport, I saw the teacher sent by the school to pick us up, and we waited at the airport for several students, and then the teacher drove us back to school. Our school is quite far from the airport, and it takes nearly three hours to drive by car, so it is early in the morning when we arrive at the school. ”

Dad Wen: "Xiao Jin, did you not sleep all night, did you sleep for a while when you arrived at school today?" ”

"When I arrived at the dormitory, I was very tired, but I still managed to go to the placement test. I came back at noon and stared for a while, and in the afternoon, I packed everything by myself. See if I'm capable? Wen Jin couldn't help but feel proud of herself when she said this.

Dad said distressedly: "Daughter, then your jet lag must not have been reversed, right?" ”

"I've been asleep on the plane, I've been in a state of excitement when I came to school, and I don't feel sleepy now."

Mom said: "These two days are the weekends over there, remember to go to bed early and rest more, otherwise you will lose your concentration when school starts." ”

Wen Jin nodded and said, "Well, mom, I know." ”

Dad asked again, "Are you ready for class?" ”

Wen Jin said: "No, I am still discussing with the teacher about choosing a course, and I may have to take two more placement tests, because I want to take a more difficult course." ”

Mom looked worried and said, "It's so complicated? ”

Dad said, "Xiao Jin, go to the United States in the first year and give yourself more time to adapt to the environment." You used to study at home, and you didn't have the concept of classmates, so you must make more friends when you come to the United States. ”

Wen Jin said, "Dad, I understand. Well, however, the tuition fees here are so expensive, I must take more courses, choose more difficult courses, and pay the tuition back. ”

Dad was amused by Wen Jin and said, "Good daughter, don't be tired of yourself, your body comes first." ”

Mom said, "Xiao Jin, are the dormitory and canteen conditions of the school okay?" ”

Wen Jin was excited when she heard this, and energetically introduced her mother and said, "Our school is so beautiful, and the facilities are absolutely first-class!" Our school cafeteria is huge, and each meal has cold dishes, hot dishes, staple foods, desserts, drinks, fruits, etc., the variety is very rich, the taste is also quite good, and they are all eaten casually, unlimited. I'm definitely going to get fat when I go to school here. The dormitory we stayed in was a small old building, like the castle where the legendary princess lived, very beautiful. I stayed in the double room, the room was spacious and light, the key was that the bed was very comfortable, and I had my own desk, cupboard and wardrobe. Bathrooms are shared and available on each floor. My roommate ......" said this, and her tone was a little low: "It's a Surinamese girl......"

Mom didn't seem to hear clearly, and asked, "Where did you say?" ”

Wen Jin said: "Oh, it's Suriname, before I met her, I had never heard of such a country in the world. After checking Baidu for a long time, I learned that it was a small country in South America. My roommate's name is Emma Bouterse, isn't that weird? ”

At that moment, the door opened, and the girl named Emma walked into the dormitory, threw her freshly picked dental floss on the floor, and went to bed in her big dusty boots. She sat on the bed and looked at the new textbook she had just bought from the bookstore.

Wen Jin quietly pointed the computer's camera at the girl and whispered to her mother, "It's her ......"

Unexpectedly, the girl who looked very smug was very alert, with an angry face, and asked Wen Jin unceremoniously: "Hey, Tina, what are you doing?" ”

Wen Jin just felt that there was no need for a formal introduction, and she was yelled at by her roommate, which made her very embarrassed, and her whole face turned red, she said, "Oh, I didn't mean to offend, I just wanted my parents to see you." ”

Emma was a little angry and said, "If you want your mom and dad to know me, can you officially introduce me to them?" Why are you holding a camera and quietly pointing it at me?

Although Wen Jin didn't understand why Emma's reaction was so strong, she still hurriedly apologized, saying, "I'm really embarrassed." She tried to adjust her emotions, endured her grievances and displeasure, and said, "Emma, would you like to know my parents?" ”

Emma lifted a strand of frizzy black curls in front of her big head, jumped out of bed in her big leather boots, and said, "No problem! ”

Wen Jin was speechless at Emma's informality, she reluctantly dodged half of her body in front of the computer screen, asked Emma to come over, and then, to the parents on the screen, said in English: "Mom and Dad, this is my roommate Emma Bouterse." ”

Emma grinned with thick lips and waved at the screen, shouting, "Hi, nice to meet you!" ”

On the other side of the screen, Wen Jin's parents greeted Emma with a smile: "It's nice to meet you, I hope you and Tina can become friends." ”

This is Chenchen's first day away from his parents alone, living in a dormitory in a foreign country, Steven on the opposite bed has fallen asleep, but he is alone in the comfortable large single bed tossing and turning, In fact, from the day he got the offer (admission letter) on March 10, he was silently looking forward to the arrival of this day in his heart, and when this day came as scheduled, on the contrary, it made people feel that everything was so unreal.

He raised his arm and took a bite, feeling a hot stinging pain in the darkness, and when he looked closer, he saw two neat rows of tooth marks on his arm, and then he smiled stupidly. Chenchen is excitedly looking forward to the day when the new students will register tomorrow, looking forward to meeting the new students, and looking forward to the start of classes. In this way, with a beautiful vision, he fell sweetly to sleep.
