Topic 5

Hey yo ! What's up? How was your holiday? I have heard from some of my friends that they traveled to others places. That is so great. However, my holiday is not that great. Begin of the week- off, i started to preview whole lessons in session B, recognized new worlds and tried to learn them. After that, i went around my neighborhood where i have just moved in for 2 months. I found a beautiful park that i can play basketball for free time, some interesting pubs to drink alcohol but I couldn't buy any drink because i am still 20, What a law! I could drink in my country, and now i have to wait until i am 21!!! That's it. With some people, that is a little boring, but i enjoy that.
On thanksgiving, i went to my relative's house to have dinner. We fried a 20 pound-turkey. This was my first time to try turkey. It was not traditional American turkey, we added some seasoning for more taste. I was given a leg and a wing, as my cousin said: " the leg for your stronger feet in the USA and the wing for you to "fly" higher in your furture". After having dinner, we gathered together, watched TV and talked a lot. We didn't go out for shopping for Black Friday because people are crazy about it. However, I went to Walmart in the next day., there were still some supplies last. I bought a bookshelve, a cooker, and a heater and some foods for next week with a good deals and saved some bucks.

My bucket list

      My bucket list is not very complicated, however, it is some things i would like to do before i "kick the bucket". First of all, I have dreamed for a day that i could buy a yacht to travel around the ocean, fishing and relaxing with my girl. I want to learn how to use weapon, especially train to be a sniper and go hunting in the forest. I want to travel to Hawaii and Amazon, but with dangerous, I mean travel by survival in wild life. My idol is Bear Grylls, you can see him in Man vs Wild program on TV, he is very outstanding in wild life. I want that one day i can go and survive like him. I want to learn how to fly a plane, a tank, a helicopter,... . Those have been in my bucket list for a long time. I wish one day i could make that list come true.

       

      Currently, I have added few things to do when I was thinking for blog topic 3. I have just found that I want to go around the USA by car, It sound crazy but i like it. I want to visit 8 Channel Islands off the coast of Southern California ( after reading Mr. Mark Herbst's bucket list). They are very beautiful and wild. I want to try scuba diving to watch the marine life.

     

      Few things in my bucket list i have done is traveling by plane and going to the USA. However, It has not been happened as a normal traveling. I mean this is my first time in the USA, first time go abroad, first time a take a flight, and i will stay in the USA for a long time. It is not a traveling at all. :'(

My extremely experiment 

         I couldn't swim when i was a child. My parents told me "you should take a swimming class, son", but i was very lazy at that time. In contrast, I very like going to swimming pool and water park, I like water !

         One day, I went swimming with my aunt. I usually swim near the edge of the pool, however, i decided to jump from the deep side, and my foot couldn't reach the bottom. As a result, i drank much water and got shocked. Fortunately, there was a guard-life who had known that i couldn't swim but still want to try deep water level. He saved me and my aunt was very scary.

         After that accident, I joined a swimming class so that i could swim.

            Hello, Welcome to my blog !
         My name is Quan, i am 20 years old. I come from Vietnam, a beautiful and a peaceful country.
When I was 16, i was very lazy and didn't like going to school, i prefer playing basketball all day then spending time in school. At that time, i made my parent sad very much. One day, I suddenly recognize that if i only play, play, and play, I won't have a good future. So, I decide to focus on study. I move to the States to study and make my future more successful.
         I have just been in the US for 1 month. It's not a long time but I have got a lots of something new : new friends, new culture, new environment,... I am very interested in the living in US. It makes me change my life style, build my character. I feel my self becomes better.
         My hobbies are basketball, fishing and traveling. I like basketball the most. I can play basketball every time. When I hold the ball in my hand, i have a feeling that i can do everything, copy the move of famous players such as Kobe, Lebron,( not 100% their move but i like that feeling).
        Finally, I hope to make friend with everybody in my class.
