"Wo wust du?" Was ist das?
Du meinst (meinen = mean) "wo wohnst du?" (where do you live?).
Ich wohne in Los Angeles. (note: as you can see, the pattern "I live in..." in German works just like in English; the verb is wohnen, another -en regular verb)

Re: Let's Talk (All Students Must Participate)
Ich wohne in Vereinigten Staaten.
Teacher's Corrections:
...in den Vereinigten Staaten. (like in English, for countries that use a plural, "the" is added; e.g., I live in the United States versus I live in Germany).

Of these facts there cannot be any shadow of doubt: for instance, that civil society was renovated in every part by Christian institutions; that in the strength of that renewal the human race was lifted up to better things-nay, that it was brought back from death to life, and to so excellent a life that nothing more perfect had been known before, or will come to be known in the ages that have yet to be. - Pope Leo XIII

Re: Let's Talk (All Students Must Participate)
Die Deutsche sind schoen, sehr schoen! Ich heisse Papashaw, der Diamat werde lehr. Ich bin es geht so.
Teacher's Corrections:
Die Deutschen sind schoen... (singular: der Deutsche; plural: die Deutschen)
Diamat ist der Lehrer
About telling people how you are doing:
Es geht mir so lala (= I'm doing sort of well)
Es geht mir gut (= I'm doing well)
Es geht mir schlecht/Es geht mir nicht gut (I'm not doing well; don't use this expression, since it suggests illness; In Germany, we generally don't ask people "how are you," unless they are really close to us)

Es geht mir gut, und dir? (Note: ich becomes mir and du becomes dir; don't worry about the grammar; for now, just consider this as a fixed expression that's simply good to know)
