Today is a wonderful day! You know why? Because we have no homework!!!!!
Wow! You can not imagine that how happy I am.
These two days, from yesterday to today, both are fantastic days. Just Let me share with you my good feelings.
First, my homestay’s Mom was not at home last night. She went outdoor someplace and had fun with her neighbors. So I fixed my dinner on my way which is a lot of vegetables and phoned made a long-distance phone call with by my international phone card. I felt good as a bird fly in the blue sky.
Actually, Sophia who is my homestay’s Mom is a very good grandmother. She left a door key for me, in case when I back home, she was not at home yet. I felt very nice, because she never gave me home’s key last week. Today, I turned back the key for her, but she said, ”You keep the key, in case I’m not at home. ” I watched her with so surprised widely eyes. I thought she began to trust me, so she let me kept one key. It was just a good feeling, that’s all!
Sophia’s brother, George came in last night. We had a long conversation. We talked about how nice Sophia is, how about my school life, what did we do last Saturday, what do you think about wearing short pants, and the most important thing wais George invited me to his Country, Greece, for one month and everything is free!I said, “Oh!! Sophia must be very jealous of me.” “Ha! Ha! Ha!” George laughed.
I was so surprised about George’s invitation. I replied him , “ Thank you with my big smile. If I can go with you, it is my pleasure! I would, but I can’t. I have to finished my course and get TOEFL’s degree firstly. But it was so fantastic temptation that I felt my heart beating when I replied no.
Also, George let me tested a little bit Brandy. It was my first time to taste wine/Brandy in Canada. I swallowed a slit of Brandy, it was burned my throat and stomach and my facial features tied together when Brandy crossed my throat slowly. After that, I gulped down a full glass of water quickly I used very quickly speed to swallow a full cup of water and smiled a silly smile. George said, “Don’t tell Sophia! Shi~~~”
Anyway, this was the special experience. Ha! Ha!
Besides, when I backed home after school today, there were a perfect meal to meat and greeted me. Sophia said with a sweet smile, “See, Sophia is at home, so you have a good dinner, isn’t it? How nice if Sophia always at home?” “Ha! Ha! Yea, you are right!” ,I laughed.
I ate one and half corn, a bowl of cabbage, spicy drumsticks, spicy breasts. After that, Sophia let me had a try to drank a bit “ARELIA” which is a Greece wine to celebrated that I have no homework today. We raised up glasses with a half cup of wine, I said “see’ya”. (Greece language. It means “cheers”.) Sophia was so surprised and looked happy about what I said. And Sophia asked, “Who taught you?”, than she gave an eye contact to me and George. George gave me a smile eyes.
So it was a second time to test wine in Canada. “I think ARELIA and Brandy both are good wine.” “When did you drink Brandy? Last night?” Sophia asked surprised and quickly. George answered quickly, “Well, maybe Alicen drank that at her back home.” “Yea, don’t worry Sophia.” I said. “No, No, No, I smelled something wrong and why you looked at George?” Sophia asked me with a tricky smile. “Well, Well, Well lala~” I laughed but say nothing. Finally, George and me told truth to Sophia. “We drank a bit Brandy last night, just test!” Sophia laughed loudly and joked, “I knew it! I just knew it! See, I knew it. Next time, I can’t leave George at my house when I’m not at home.”
Although today is rainy day, my heart is sunny day. Wonderful two days. I will have a deeply sleeping tonight.
