Thanksgiving break was amazing. I managed to divide it so I got done with all my homework by Wednesday and had some days to enjoy and relax a little from school life. After all it\u2019s not called a \u201cbreak\u201d for nothing.<\/p>\n
Just like last year, I stayed in my dorm during the break. I wasn\u2019t alone, as my roommate is also a international student and stayed here. Until Thursday nothing much happened in the city, but that\u2019s ok because I was working on homework, so I had very few distractions to procrastinate. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019m not saying that the whole city and university shut down because everyone is on break. Usually some staff that stay here during break provide us with events related to thanksgiving, like a special lunch\/dinner or even the ISSS bus trip to Tangler outlet on black Friday, (Which I signed up but didn\u2019t went). What I\u2019m trying to say is that usually these events occur towards the end of break. As an example, I went to the barbershop to get a haircut the Friday before break and the place was closed. I guess the owner didn\u2019t expect a lot of clients with most of the students going back home.<\/p>\n
My Thursday was very funny. Last year I went to the house of a friend\u2019s grandparents and this year they invited me and my roommate to go again. \u00a0They were very kind and friendly to us and we all had a great time and ate tons of foods. By the night, a friend of mine said she wanted to go to the Coral Ridge mall because she herd stores would be open by midnight for black Friday. So I, my roommate, another friend and she, went to the mall. When it was nine something we decided to go to the movies to wait until midnight. So all four of us got to see Thor: Ragnarok. The movie was great, but, when it was over, at midnight something, the mall was closed. So our friend was mistaken that the stores were going to open at midnight. So we called a day and went back to our places.<\/p>\n
Friday I went back to the mall to search something for my brother but I didn\u2019t find what I was looking for. The mall was very crowded, I never saw it like that before. I guess everyone was after a good black Friday deal. It was just like I see on movies and news. Crowds of people going from store to store full of bags and some stores announcing their deals through a speaker. Thankfully I didn\u2019t saw anyone fighting over a product like they show on the media. For the rest of the day and the weekend I just relaxed and enjoyed my time. Although on Sunday I studied for an Calculus exam that I had yesterday.<\/p>\n
So, this was my break, I hope you all had a great time too and had some time to restore your selves for this last couple of weeks and finals. I know I did.<\/p>\n
See you soon!<\/p>\n
