Foreign exchange. I want to go to France so bad. Why do people from other countries stareotype us?? Well I guess we do it too, but they do it more. I mean. all of us arn’t fat and lazy. Its stupid. They think its funny.
Lauren
Foreign lands are new, are exciting. Foreign people with foreign accents, eating foreign foods. There’s bad foreign too. Scary foreign. Foreign substances in the body tend not to be so enlightening. I want to be foreign somewhere. I want to be foreign in Europe.
Katie
foreign means coming from a different country, or more generally just something that is not familiar. Something alien, something that you are not accustomed to.
James
Have you ever felt like you were in some foreign country? That everyone else spoke a different language and thought differently then you?
I know I do all the time.
I stick out, I feel odd…but you have to realize God understands us all…he loves us all and he’s always there for you when no one else will listen. :)
You’re never truly foreign in the eyes of god
Jack of a few, but master of none… I love to dabble in foreign languages… know a bit of Mandarin, Teo Chew, Taiwanese, Cantonese, Spanish, and German. English was once a second language to me.
The kinds of people who are mysterious and interesting to meet. You find them at certain stops throughout your life and their adjective can refer to their nationality or just how they like their cheeseburgers. Either way, you are most familiar with yourself and so meeting someone who is wholly foreign can do wonders for your view of life.
Not of a land, not where it belongs, like a body. debris when its inside the body. Also exotic like a language and fascinating like well a land.

We were so far apart, and yet only inches away, barred by language, by custom, by our families. It did not matter that you and I were both people. It only mattered that I was from here and that you were not. You were foreign. A stranger from another dimension. A wall of glass stood between us that could never be breached.
when someone comes from another country. something from far away. A person or object not from where you are. Oranges come from California. foreign exchange students go to my school. one is from France.
Grace
Ireland is the most foreign place i can think of at the moment. except for those Chinese foreign exchange students that really can’t speak any English and talk very loud in the union. they are foreign. and those really hot Russians. and the Swedish exchange student who is cheating on his girlfriend and sits next to me in civ pro.
Gracie
Foreign studies includes languages and cultures from different places around the world. But if something is foreign to you then you are unfamiliar with it. Hence a foreign language, or foreign food.
Erin
foreign? when i think of foreign i think of france mostly. i think of nice places that speak pretty languages.
mari
Right now, I feel as though I’m a foreigner everywhere. I don’t really have a homebase anymore. I love my family, but I feel as though I don’t know where my heart lies anymore. If home is where the heart is, then I don’t know where I am. I love creating relationships, but I seem to be left behind.
Anna
not anything I know, so don’t ask me. or maybe I do, psh. oh well. I like trying new things, it’s different and makes me think. weird sometimes and maybe even interesting. changes of how I look upon things.
tourists. stupid tourists. lovely food, amazing places. sprawling castles and landscapes. Amazing accents. gorgeous guys. such a totally different attitude. a different atmosphere, a breathe of fresh air

and behind you, a trail of light, synthetic glowing petals fallen from the hem of your dress, like something foreign.
“And I solemnly swear to defend you against all wars, foreign and domestic,” Walt said as he slid the ring on her finger. “Uh, Mr. President,” the Secretary of State/Best Man,” whispered urgently. “I don’t think that last part was meant to be part of your wedding vows.”
Izolda
I know a foreigner, he’s really nice. I don’t know how it would feel to be foreign in a country where everyone knows things you don’t. I guess it takes time to get used to it :)
something from a different place.
something unusual.
another country.
unexplained.
not from here.

This whole thing was new to her. She could no longer pretend like she didn’t care. She could not say she had no heart. Because she had found love.
She didn’t know what to do with it though.
Jaymie

I want to meet a foreign person. Not meet, really get to know. Fall in love maybe. People around here make me tired. Maybe that’s the answer. Foreign. Foreign is a band. I should listen to it.
ana
it is a place called home. Like all the places of her mother; like all the places of his mother. I see bright stars gazing down at me, the wind behind my back, and the smell of lovely peppermint in the air. Hear that bell ringing? This is not who you think it is. So don’t assume. I’m here because I’m here. Like everyone else.
I think it’s cruel to refer to this word as if it were something to be feared and avoided. But even in this modern world, where multiculturalism is growing stronger and stronger, we’re all still prejudiced against the unknown. That’s what I mean by ‘foreign’.
The country was glistening like silver, enflamed by the sun, and she saw it from the dock of the galleon, through her telescope. She felt the wind rush through her hair, beckoning her to step upon its sandy shores and explore the people and cultures.
I wish I lived in a foreign country–a country that was not the United States. I guess being adopted and having no real cultural identity has made me want to learn and immerse myself into other cultures, and other places.
I also think how being ‘foreign’ is bad–is ultimately seen as being an enemy or one who does not have the same values as the majority.
Sandra
you are strange to me and I won’t be able to touch you
Ylan
people fear foreign. I love it. Language culture whatever. its scary I guess but you get over that and forget your world and emmerse yourself in someone esle’s. learn a new language. say a gibberish word that paints a picture in someones mind. foreign isnt all so bad with the right attitude. why would you spell it like that? eign? whatever. I don’t like foreign food, for the most part. sorry. biased palette.

That´s how everybody might describe me if they take some time to talk to me. I am new to this country (usa) even if I am an american citizen. I have lived in a foreign country my whole life, and until now I come here. Its good I guess, to see things from different points of view like I have.
Dann
Well this is a timely, if not loaded, word. A friend and I were play a round of “words with friends” tonight and she dropped “wop” on me and then was shocked the game accepted it. Naturally I was confused, what’s so weird about that, right?
Then she told me “wop” is a derogatory word for illegal immigrants in her part of our country. Apparently it means: “without papers.” Meanwhile my first thought was “doo-wop.” I can say the game also accepts the word “haji” too. Who only knows how they decide which words are playable and which ones don’t count. You can play orgeat, ciao, and ahi, but not shiro, aki, or hola. I think they’re biased.

I wish sometimes that I was foreign, but if I was foreign, I wouldn’t be foreign anymore, not to whatever country I moved to. So, really you cannot be forgeign truly, you can only be a part of something else.

foriegn languages. foreign cities. to everyone, there is something foreign somewhere. we, as humans, need to appreciate culture and foriegn cities. they are beautiful, historical, and un-appreciated. to others, canadian cities are foreign, and canada is foreign. to us, places such as, germany and australia and korea are foreign because we are unfamiliar with that area of the world.

We all feel foreign sometimes. A lone mushroom, poisonous in a field of harmless flowers. But it is times like these that sculpt our existences. It is times like these when being foreign is beautiful, a mold in the individual persona.
different. uncomfortable.someone or something oftentimes unwanted. I consider myself a foreigner at my school…no friends, nobody to talk to, nobody who understands me. I consider myself a loner…a foreigner..
