However, I am not totally used to their habitsyet. Indeed, I was used to shaking my friends' hands every day in France.During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand ofone of my classmates whom I hadmet theday beforeandhe told me, “I think we already met！” I live a great experience at present, andI would just encourageanystudent to become a memberin a program at UC, Berkeley. 68.The writer comes from ____.
