Hurricane

Because of the hurricane sandy's arrival, I'm out of the door, I stay in the dormitory, I very boring, I don't know what I should to do, and I also can not sleep in the evening, ears to hear only the wind and the rain, I have some fear, hope the hurricane sandy to pass it as soon as possible。

There is one of my senses that I want to share.Having quiet in heart.I never realized I have lower english level,until I find it is hard to speak and to write essay.Sometimes,a little different pronunciation also can make other confused.Don't have enough vocabulary stop into deep communication.I can't blame other,that's my personal business.I am confused.I start to think about myself.What should I do ? What 's I really want?I got answer from Pain.I can't waste time anymore.I start to know own mistake.I appreciate what I have,and then share happiness with other.After that,everything becomes better step by step.English becomes more and more wonderful,including sentence structure and regular of word and so on.

Virginia

    This weekend We went to the Virginia. and We went to the hair shop in Korean town.

We found Korean restaurant we went to Korean style BBQ restaurant, We ate Sam kyeop sal and

beef. It was delicious so I enjoyed the dinner. because It's been a few month since I ate Korean food

And after that we went to Korean market we bought Korean food,Korean snack and Korean noodles.

It was enjoyable weekend.

Hurricane

        I heard a bad news from my friends. They told me the hurricane will come to our city.During that time our house will be no water and no electricity.We are all afraid because we have never had a hurricane.My roommates went home this afternoon.At the same time,we were very excited because we don't have classes on Monday.
       We went to the Wal-mart and bought a lot of food and candles yesterday. Flashlights were sold out. When we checkout,the cashier did not say "have a good day" but said "keep safe".
       Now,I am waiting for the advent of the hurricane with my friends.

HELPLESS

   This evening, I had a bad experience at mall. I didn't know that I must sign up my name on the back of the debit card. What's worse， I didn't take anything at hand which can prove my identity. So I got into trouble when I bought something in a store. The shop assistant told me seriously that I must show something with identity and having my photo on it otherwise they don't trust me. I was shocked by it. Even though I had my gull card picture on my phone. They said that doesn't work. I was alone at that time and didn't know how to do. I was afraid that they would turn me over to the police or confiscate my card. Later, for some reasons they let me go. I tell myself that I must keep my passport with me in the future. Because I'm not in China now,and without it I can't prove my identity. This experience really gave me a wake-up call.
    As we all know, hurricane sandy will come soon. I hope everyone will be safe at this time.

SANDY

Yesterday my friend told me, Sunday there will be a terrible storm ---SANDY, Sandy are  hurricanes and storm combined might snow. therefore today I go to WAL-MART to buy somethings . when i came to the WAL-MART , i think it has many more people than usual, maybe everyone are in order  SANDY to buy food . when i came to water area , i was very surprised , on the shelf the whole row don't has any water .and I later found out that the bread is sold out... ,it's so exaggerated! i think everyone's guard consciousness are very high,they know to buy bread and water in the terrible weather . I'm worried about tomorrow will without electricty,if  just don't have network ,i can hide in my own room . Do not worry too much, but if don't have electricity , I think will be very horrible!

Preparation

On Friday night, I went to Wal-Mart to purchase water, candles, and some foods to prepare hurricane Sandy.  Look at this picture. This is a picture of Wal-Mart. Usually, we can get many bottles of water. However there were only one or two bottles of water.

I have never had experience to hit hurricane before. In Japan, we hit typhoon many times. 

I think hurricane is much more big and dangerous than typhoon.

I'm scared. I don't know what will happen in 2 or 3 days.

According to some people, we won't be able to use Internet or electronics.

I hope it passes as soon as possible.

The past and the present

         In the past,I was very naught,always maked parents angry,also did not love learning,every day only know to played.As time past, oneself also slowly grow up,also sensible point. Now, I am a person in the United States, what matter all must depend on oneself, I want to be strong and brave,can't let parents worry about me, I want to let them know that me in the United States had a very happy and very healthy. In fact I now have to learn English well, this is the most important. So from now on, I will study English hard, come on, belive in yourself!

Pumpkin Carving

Pumpkin carving, this is my first experience to try on this Saturday.
That was very exciting, but it made me tired.My arms and fingers are so tired.
First of all, I cut the top of the pumpkin, and pick up seeds and contents.
Then carve. I wanted to make like zombies. However only one of my friend could recognize it.

I don't know the meaning of Halloween exactly. Some children say "Trick or Treat" and they gave candies and chocolates from neighbors. That's exciting!
In this season, we have a lot of exciting events, not only Halloween, but also Thanks giving day, and Christmas. I'm really waiting for Christmas season.

Funny Sunday

It was sunny today. I was excited. I got up at a quarter to nine. I made a appointment to meet at fourteen o’clock. After I had my lunch, I went to the Wal-Mart . It was hot outside. When I arrived, my friends didn’t arrive. I waited for him in front of the KFC’s door. I haven’t seen them for six days. And in six days, we didn’t come into contact with others frequently. About ten minutes left, my friends arrived one by one. After we greeted,we went to play tennis in school. The match last for tow hours.Oh!I fill very happy today!

ZOO

 

 

On Friday, I went to the salisbury's zoo to see the animals with my friends.

For the time being we didn't see complete department of animal he went away

just see the alpacas.a parrot. Cattles. A leopard.Sika deers.. I'm straigh

think alpacas are very lovely, but I see in the zoo of alpacas are not like

this, it has brown hair,it is very fat. Sat through the ground to be not moved,

it is very lazy.My favorite animals is the leopards and owls in the zoo.zoo has

two of the leopard but yellow the leopard has not come here, we  outside look

at that one is rest black leopard stood in cages.the leopard has been lie down

and rest, when kid go to the cages , it turned peep our eyes,the eyes is good

sharp,It is carnivorous animals. when Children left it lie back, I think

because it felt like  kid's meat is sweet! lol..
a owl like prince standing on the branch, its action is very elegant,owl is

from the top down at us, i think it is probably in despise always call it

"honey" ,it have individual character. I think it's name should be the prince.

But my friend said it don't has name, because zoo's workers think zoo's animals

are not pet,so they don't need a name, but I don't think so .I think they

should have a name, we are to treat animals as friends ,so why we have a name

but they don't has. another owl a very gentle, probably. i think it just look

at we that its a girl.when i has more leisure time, I will walk the zoo.

Annapolis mall

I went to the Annapolis mall on Saturday. Now weather gets cold. I bought a jacket, sweatpants.

On Saturday too many people was in Annapolis mall. However we didn't have enough time, so

we might have to go again on this weekend. I want to go to bigger shopping mall in New York

woodbury outlet. I have to buy jeans, parkavest and sweater for winter. We ate dinner in mall.

We are going to go Virgina on next weekend.

Halloween Party

       Friday, I went to the Zoo to participated in a Halloween party. There are a lot of kids wearing Halloween dress. They were very cute. There were a lot of people in distributing candy. We went to a haunted house, and there were real person dressed as a ghost to scare passers, they dressed up as doctors,nurses, devil, monster and so on. A lot of people were scared and scream. We took the picture with a "ghost". Walked along the road, we saw a lot of people dressed as ghosts, and they were dancing. We played about half an hour, and we left the zoo. That was my first Halloween party that I have ever been.

Very cold weather

                        This week, the weather suddenly became very cold. Remember last week I just wearing a shirt, I will now wear quilted jacket, so I am very cold. Because in my hometown is not very cold, perhaps I am a little not to adapt to it. Hope I can quickly adapt to the weather here.
I know that winter is coming. In fact I like winter, because it will snow in winter, I love the snow. And I now in the United States, Christmas in here, here will be snowy. I think it is really beautiful, hope Christmas come early, I'm looking forward to it.

Self-talking

     It had many tests for me last week and this week is relaxing relatively. So I bought the bus trip ticket to NYC. Mr.Cooper introduced a branch of interesting things we can do there. I'm curious about it. Though one day is really short for us to travel there, getting the experience is also cool.
     Halloween is at the end of this month. We can see pumpkin everywhere now in campus or apartment. I hope I can have the chance to carve one. It's fun.

braid.. braid.. braid..

since in Salisbury their is not much to do, I spend my week end to learn how to dread with my cousin. we go in an African salon in town in we spent the all day their learning on dolls how to dread. It's an exiting experience for me because I had always wished to learn that. it would be economic also for me to, I could braid my own hair. here are some extract of braided hair, that I took from Google

Cold weather

     I don't expect that Salisbury is getting cold from last Sunday. My parents said they would send my cloth to here. However they don't prepare at all. I don't want to die! Then last Saturday, I went to outlet to get cloth for autumn and winter like sweater, parker, and long shirt. It took me about one and half hours, but I could get more reasonable than I expected.
     I heard that the temperature of this area is similar to north part of Japan. However Tokyo, where I lived is not colder than that area. I don't like cold place... I guess whether I can survive in this cold area or not.
     I'm planning to go Texas this coming spring break. My friend's family invite me at Christmas, because I don't have any plan and I would be alone...This will be my first experience to spend Christmas season in the United States. I can't wait without cold temperature.
I hope Texas is warmer than here. I'm looking forward to going there soon.
     Anybody have a good idea to survive?

The cold and rain sunday

           I have rested for 2 days. In these days, I felt very bored. I didn’t know to do what. Although I had a lot of things to do, I felt uncomfortable. I was ill because of the cold weather. I was tired, sleepy and had no strength. My friends are worried about my health. in fact, it didn’t matter. I was always in the room with air-conditioner and opened it in a high temperature. So when I went out, the  low temperature disagreed to me.At last, I was ill.

Relaxing Weekend

I had a good time last weekend. On Sunday morning, I stayed at home and did my homework. The homework wasn’t difficult. After that, I played tennis with my friends. It was tired, but very exciting. In the afternoon, I cooked dinner for my friends. It was a little difficult, I think. After dinner, I play the computer game in the room. I can play very well. I had a relaxing weekend.

Yes!!!!!

Today, I passed the driver's license test. It took about one month to pass. I needed a lot of statements such as apartment residence and bank statements. Also, I needed to pass the drug and alcohol test. The law test was difficult because there were a lot of words that I didn't know. In addition to this, all of the questions were written in CAPITAL LETTER. To tell the truth, I failed before. I studied hard for law test. After law test, I took driving test. I was very nervous. If I fail…
However, I passed ! I'm very happy. I don' have to bring my passport everyday.
