Spring Break
If I get something beyond I expected, I will be extra happy. Such as spring break.
I am so happy that I have a long break in March. Adding two weekends, there are ten days available for me. I decided to go back China. Of course, someone pushed me also. In most people's opinions, Ten days are not long enough to go broad, especially china which in another side of the earth. Everyone was surprised and didn't understand why I made this choice in such a short period of time. But I did and I feel it's worthy.
Not only I met people who I missed in China, but also I found I am not a stranger in New York any more. Here, I have to mention about JFK airport twice. The first time was on March 8th, the day I left to Beijing. Ling who is my best friend in New York drove me to JFK airport. Actually, that was the day I've desired for a long time since the airticket was bought. But when I was on the way to JFK airport I even felt reluctant to leave. I wondered how I could have that emotion. But I have to tell the truth to myself, the feeling of reluctant really existed. The second time was on March 19th, the day I came back. This was the second time I arrived in JFK airport. It had big contrast with the first time. The first time was my first time I left my country come to a totally new place. Long trip made me sick and tired, homesick and strange feeling made me sad affectively. But this arrival made me feel a kind of coming back home. I called taxi myself. I saw flowers were blossoming. I even didn't feel that kind of sickness and tiredness. I had already been familiar with this city. I came back to my own room, suddenly, I was shocked. I had stood there for one minute. My mind needed time to shift from Chinese life to American life. I quickly adapted my life here and feel comfortable with it. I don't miss home like last two months. I find I'd like to live here.
This is what spring break brought to me.

First of all, ten days obviously not enough because the time staying at home is never felt long. I am happy to hear you say that you are already familiar with the New York City. I hope everything here is good for you.
