Thanksgiving day

What a bad weather today!!! I planned to join the macys's thanksgiving pageant,which is the traditional item in Thanksgiving day, in Manhattan today, but the bad weather cancelled my plan. Then I went to my friends Jason's house instead of going out. Jason is a high school boy in a military high school which is located in Pennsylvania. We had known each other in Shanghai. He told me lots interesting stories happened in his school. He told me that everyday morning they were marching 3km with a 30kg package and the last 10 boys would be asked to clean the classroom. They have lots of physical practise such as horizontal bar and push-up every night. This cause that he looks much stronger and more mettled than he was in Shanghai. I believed that his mother will happen to see his change. He also told me that his school will offer pilot course next year. It's amazing! I feel a little bit jealousy. I had thanksgiving dinner with them and we ate chafing dish and turkey. To be honest, the turkey is not as tasty as I thought.

This is much better! I'm sorry you didn't like the turkey as much. How was the rest of the day?
