Your not following our rules...

In class this week, we played a card game within our table. Before we started we had a specific set of rules regarding the game. After we read the rules we began playing and continued for 15 minutes. After a couple more minutes we began to play rounds of complete silenece. Couple more minutes went by and we started to rotate the winners of each table in a clockwise circle and one person that had the least amount of wins to rotate counter clockwise. The round consisting of new members made things interesting because after a few rounds we started to notice how upset each individual was getting including myself. We realized our rules were different because the first table you started with had a set of rules that only those members followed. So when our table members had two new others telling us what to do we started to bump heads. This is called culture shock, when we heard the different rules of the game we were surprised of how other members played. A similar situation had happened to me when my cousin from Ohio came and stayed with me for a month. She was 7 years older which already made a difference between us. She woke up early on a Saturday morning and began yard work outside. When I woke up, I rushed out to tell her she didn't need to do anything and that she was a guest so she should relax. She quickly told me that in Ohio her and many friends woke up early on weekends and always met up to do yard work! This made me realize how different our lives were just being 8 hours apart. It was a huge culture shock to know that my cousin and her friends did such a thing like yard work with enjoyment!
