Thanksgiving

Since last Saturday, we start to see people with suitcases walking on the street. They are traveling home for Thanksgiving. This is a great American tradition which they take seriously. I don't know what they thank for being given, and I don't know what I can thank for (there are just too many things to thank). The holiday may have lost its original meaning but I'm still happy that I'll have nearly a week without any class. So thanks for giving me a week to take a breath. I'm almost worked to death.

I guess the number 1 is arguably X'mas. They also take Thanksgiving very serious, but unlike X'mas they don't give presents to others.

Taking a breath is better for health.

Take care and take it easy!
