Staying in the dom alone
2015-01-12

Because of some reasons, I cannot go home on time like my other roommates. I'm waiting here to wait for a file in order to get my visa down successfully. U know what? China's post service is so inefficient, especially EMS. I booked the air ticket of Jan.14th, but due to that file, I cant get my visa and so I cant go home. I will cancel that booking tomorrow.

As a result, I'm the only one that left in the empty room. When I talk or make a call, I can hear ECHO! So terrible. And I have always been a horror-film-lover. and what I see usually orients with the theme of "horror", so u can imagine how brave I should be in the dom. What's more, the floor is empty, and maybe 2 or 3 people are left in the whole building. And there's no toilet in the room, I have to go to the public toilet. China's toilets are kind of "special",I think most of foreigners have the same feeling with me, also in the flims, toilets have always been the NO.1 place to be caught by the ghost.

On the other hand, I can see some good aspects of staying alone-----quiet and free. It's so quiet that u have the feeling of stepping into a grave. But if i want to read and practice my spoken English, there's no need for me to go out in order not to disturb my roommates. Even I can have a party in the dom. I DID yesterday, one person's party and one person's film. Haha, amazing experience.

Yesterday, I was a little rusty, having junk food , no reading and having a very bad sleep. But today I'm getting better,doing some reading, eating healthy and making my promise to buy my sister a gift. Even though no class, no exam now, I will try to get up earlier tomorrow morning and have the most important breakfast. Staying alone can be meaningful as well as unforgottable.

As an English major, it's so significant to practice English everyday. Last term we had so many lessons . I think what I need to do in this holiday is to keep my strengths and redeem disadvantages. I MUST do my best.

Good night.
