俺接触的很多老美几乎都是工作狂,体育狂,娱乐狂..., 相比之下,很多老中是聊天狂,吃饭狂,攀比狂....

很多美国人,尤其是“各体户”,工作起来玩命,热爱体育,什么球都能打,由模有样,又特别重示和家人在一切的活动,象吃饭啊,看电影啊,渡假啊,等等。 有一点让俺很佩服的,是他们房屋的改建和装修,一会换换这个,一会弄弄那个,不亦乐乎。有多少钱都爱自己动手,把个屋子前前后后里里外外拾到的干干净净。再有些钱的老美一般都有佣人和园丁,室内设计师,请人弄这弄那。 既使这样,也还爱自己张落这个那个的。总之在倒腾房子方面,似乎从不闲着,今天换换这,明天弄弄那.... 

老中一般买个房子后都不再动了,大概跟工作不稳定有关吧。有的干脆连草都不剪,弄得在社区印象很不好。你到老美家看看, 一般东西都特多。再到老中家看看,很多是空空如野。 不过俺们老中有一个特点老美没有,就是开聚会大伙各带各的菜,吃完了就可劲地天南地北地东拉西扯,互相攀比,热闹也热闹,时间久了,来的老是那些人,吃的还是那些菜,聊的还是那些事,到后来,就慢慢的疏远了,过一段时间,又聚在一起,再吃,再聊,再攀....

相反,到老美家开Party,有很多节目,一般是座下吃饭,站着聊天,然后是参加主人安排的一些娱乐活动,请佳宾讲话,总之,聚会是有主题和目地的,节目丰富多彩.

俺看这样似乎更有趣,也跟着学呐。
