Christmas Break

    This Christmas, I went back to my hometown in China. Although the price of tickets was pretty expensive, I still wanted to go back because last Christmas I didn't and spending time in America for one year is way too long and boring. Plus, all the work that we have to make up in school was very painful, and I don't want this to happen again. So this Christmas I decided to go back and see my family and friends.

    The first thing I did after I arrived was eat hot pot with my parents and my grandparents. I hadn't seen them for a long time and I hugged them deeply with happiness. They were also very happy to see me, and they said I was a little bit taller than when they last saw me. They had a great meal and the hot pot was very delicious since I hadn't tasted it for a long time.

    Later, I met my friends in China. We used to play soccer everyday after school together, and it's always been a pleasure to hang out with them. Although now we cannot play soccer everyday like we used to do, they still meet during weekends, and I can join them when I go back on holidays.
    Unfortunately, the food in China was too good, and I ate too much of it which caused me stomach problems. I got sick because of it and even threw up on the first day of 2018. But since my body is strong enough, and I exercise a lot. After going to the hospital and taking some medicine, I recovered well, almost in one day, and was able to fly back to America.
     Now, I am back, and I need to focus on my studies. I hope I do better than the first semester and improve myself.
