How to deal with culture shock!

I have been in Tasmania, Australia for a month. I become aware of how differnt everything is, and sometimes i don't have any ideas to deal with it at all. People's ways of dealing with each other are different. After a seminar on the last Wednesday, i have gained some understanding of the new culture in dealing with people from my supervisor,Dr. Thao and my friens from differnt countries. Many thanks for their suggestion. Hope I will feel more familiar with the new culture soon.
