Skipping classes & Halloween

I'm thinking if I have undergone a relatively depressing period recently. While, I'm fine now, but I'm still regretting that I skipped classes on Monday, as I didn't finish the assignments of those two courses. Then, I just don't want to go. On the other hand, it's midterm, we are busier and busier, so the opposite of being too busy is just relax. After skipping, I feel huge guilty when I look back at it.

Yesterday, I got the midterm scores, which are not good. After thinking about it and talking to my friends, I decided to figure out an approach to transform my old way of study, which turns out to be unefficient.

Though there are some sorrows coming from study, we had fun at Halloween. It was my first Halloween, and it was really a refreshment too. At five o'clock, I was prepared to distribute candies to the childern who came to dorms for "treat or trick". I like American kids, as they looked like little angels and that night turned out to be fun, as they were all dressed up and looked more lovely than usual. When they were saying: " treat or trick" in a soft and sweet voice, I was going to melt! When we sent out all the candies, my friends and I went to a house of a friend and saw many people wearing a variety of costumes: Mother Earth, Philps, Man in the Box, Snow white, etc. I even help the host crave the pumpkin. We went back late but somber, as it was a non-alcohol party. Well, which part I love most about this party? It's I can put on some make-up, as I'm too lazy to put on some make-up on a daily basis, so, at special festival or occasion, I can satisfy myself by putting those powders and creams on my face.

Homecoming Weekend

Another busy week has gone through. But there were also many interesting things happened, such as the activities related to homecoming. we watched the American football on weekend, and it's the first time I watch it. And Mrs. Johnson's husband sat right beside me, after the specific explanation, I understood it. Unsimilar to soccer, American football is much more violent and dangerous. I think the genes of attaction of human being are totally intrigued out in this game.

At the end of it, we won with 30 plus to 0, which gave me a sharp impression in this very first time of watching football. As for the outcome of the competition of homecoming King and Queen, the guy I like-Ben John finally got the glory as homecoming King. There are still many activities in the coming week, which makes the life in America exciting and hustling.
