作品：The trip to the U.S.

Although that I have been to the United States just last year, this time, it is quiet different, because it is the first time that I went alone to other countries. In this trip, I’ve met many new friends also teachers!
The day before I leave, my head was full of missing. But the second day, the day we leave, my feelings’s just like a flower that blooms in spring. When we arrived airport, I have totally changed.
Then, I am in the plane that gonna take us to Guangzhou.

Let me tell you about this trip now:

San Francisco Time
The time that we stayed in San Francisco is quite fun.
The first day, which is the day that we take off, we’re so tired in the plane, so as soon as we’re out the airport, we went to the hotel, because it is not safe when it is dark. And I slept at 1 a.m. , although it is too late, it is morning in Beijing.
The second day, we went the famous place of San Francisco, the cable car. Surprisedly, I saw the beggar that disturbed me when I went to the cable car last year, but he wasn’t drunk this time. After that, we went to the Lombard Street, and saw beautiful flowers. Just after lunch, we went to Fisherman’s Pier, and we’ve interviewed 5 people about did they know how did the Fisherman’s Pier change into a popular and a famous place (Landmark) just for a short time? And did you know how?
The third day is the day that full of technology, first, we went to the intel museum. It shows us the history of the technology world, how did the technology “grows”. After that, we went to Stanford University, and I have met my cousin that I haven’t seen him for about a year!
The “car” day, which is the third day, which is the day that we leave San Francisco, so, bye-bye San Francisco!

Los Angeles Time
The time in Los Angeles is quite fun actually, the first day in Los Angeles, we went to a shopping mall in the morning, after that we went to the factory of Sriracha HUI Chili Sauce, the air in the factory is full of plastic and chilies. Then, this day was finished.
The second day, we went to UCLA, it has a beautiful campus, and we even went to a library that is full of Chinese books, and some of the books there is the books that we have never seen in China! In the afternoon, we went to the California Science Centre, it also told us a lot of things about technology, and nature!
The third day is the “car” day again, so, bye-bye, LA.

San Diego Time
When we arrived in San Diego, we went to its old town, it is full of shops, but a lot of them are all Mexico “Flavor”. Then we were sent to the homestay family! What makes me unhappy is that the homestay family does not have AC, and they do not take us out! So we lived in this family only for two nights. But then……
The first day in school is very nice, we only need to arrived to school before 8:30! Too late for us, so cause we always get up at 6:30 in the morning in China, we will just keep on doing this. The school is good, and their maths is very easy! And they always use a computer to have test, write their homework, not like us! But they have one class that is boring, which is called “SOCIAL STUDIES”, very boring, it is all about geographic, politics and a lot of things!
The second day in school is good also, but what makes me thought weird is that the school does not let their students stay in their classroom at the noon, also break time!
The third day is a big day for me! Cause we’re changing a home stay family! The owner of this homestay family knows the owner of Ms. Sherry ‘s homestay family’s owner, so they took us to a beautiful beach that night. We had a lot of fun there!!!
The fourth day, we went to Costco and JC penny, also a cinema! We went shopping first. Then, we went to Costco, and ate a hot dog there! Then, we went to a cinema, and watch Hotel Transylvania III! What a nice day!
The next day, which is the last night that we can stay in the homestay family. That evening, we went to the swimming pool, and swam for a long time! We really hope that we can stay there again!
The last day, we only have a class for a half day, then we have learned what is a social community, why is it important in America? Then we have a graduation ceremony, after all of these, all of us have a speech, then it is all over!
Returning LA……

Los Angeles Time
The last day in the U.S. we had a lot of fun, because we went to Hollywood’s walk of fame, and we have seen Jackie Chen’s hand print on the ground! Then, we went to the Universal Studios, and had a lot of fun there!
At last, all of us went on the plane that will send us back to China.
Goodbye, United States!
