Living As Usual


                Last week is my first Fall break in America when I study in Webster University.  Although most of my classmates prefer to out of St. Louis, I still stay in here with my girlfriend. because my girlfriend did not have break, she was required to study as usual, and I need this break to complete some tasks.

                First of all, I spent two days in order to get driver license. To be honestly, exam is not easy for me. There are some rules and operations are different from which I learned in China, that is why I failed in the first time. Besides paying more attention on drive situation and signals, international student feels invariably nervous when talking about officer in English. I failed the first test due to I did not do more exercises. In contrast, I nearly drove around half St. Louis with my girlfriend's help on my first day of fall break. I  concentrated every way and signal while I was driving. Then, I found more relax on the second test.  I cannot forget what was feel when I passed the road test; I really excited because it does mean I can drop the permit license and drive alone to anywhere. In past two months, my girlfriend always accompanied with me, whatever drove to school, supermarket or other restaurants. I really felt sorry to interrupt her schedule, I knew it is very difficult if someone could encourage you forever and give your hand except having fallen deeply in love with you.

                Secondly, in the middle of break, I decided to move into another apartment. Consider with more convenient traffic conditions and comfortable environment, Ballwin is my best choice. On one hand, I can arrived school about 20 minutes. QT gas station, Wal-Mart and banks around here, it is greatly reducing the time as before. On the other hand, some of my friends also live in here, we can body build , study or travel together. In addition,  I am satisfied with the social amenity. For instance,  laundry room, gymnasium underground my apartment, swimming pool is nearly 3 walk away. I can take care myself, and save more time with my friends. Of course, I must be tired on moving day, I believe I can love my new environment, because I do not want to move a third time.

                Finally, I spent the rest time with my girlfriend,  we went to a cinema, shopping mall and walk around one lake as other lovers. When we back home, we were cooking together and talking our plans in next semester, we enjoyed our selves. Admittedly, we lives in here are still colorful and comfortable, but meanwhile it is also full of tension and competition. I must get ready for challenges at any moment, because I have a responsibility to give my girlfriend a home life.
