Red storm v.s. Duke

Today i went to see the basketball game in MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. I am there to support St John ’s basketball. It was very surprised that many people came to see the game. I was wrong to underestimate that it was a small game and many people came to support the game.

Seating it the place where NBA basketball game was held, and looking around the court I felt so excited. The place was not as big as I was imaged. But the LCD screen was just like what I saw on the television. St John’s Red towel was hanging on the seat around the court. All you can see is all red.

During the game when some team called break off, the music will start to play and the cheer squad start to dance. It makes us not feel so boring during the break off.
Although we did not win Duke, but I still feel worth to spent $15 dollar to take a look at Madison square garden and support our school. Some day I will come and saw a real NBA.

Snowstorm

My mom always asks me is it cold in New York? Is it snow?
I always answer “no”. I start thinking that maybe I won’t see the snow storm in this year and feel lost.
But haha~~
I finally experienced the snow storm. It was so interesting. The school even closed because of the storm. In Taiwan, we only closed the school because of typhoon.

This was the first really snow storm in New York and I felt so excited. At the beginning I thought it was just rain hitting on the window and making noise. But when I stand by the window I know that I was wrong: it was snowing.

The whole roads became white. It looks like a heavy precipitation. Therefore, my roommates and I decided to go grocery shopping when it is snows. We walk in the snows and play with the first snow of this winter. We jumping up and down, trying to catch the snow, laughing and screaming. It was the first time for a lot of us.
However, I must admit that it was very hard to move and when snow hitting on the face was really hurt. Moreover, the traffic was so bad and snow becomes dirty. And snowing seems to become a very dangerous thing to the driver.
However, I still like the snow. Love the feeling that my feet sink in snows. And expect it snow larger next time~~~~hahahhahaha

snow skiing

Snow skiing
This was my first time skiing because there is no snow in Taiwan. By the way, compared with the weather in New York, Taiwan is so warm. One who have not been to Taiwan should go once. Anyway, the snow ski was really fantastic but very tired.

We went to Hunter Mountain. We went there with students comes from others school in New York and the only thing in common was that we all came from Taiwan, which means we don’t know how to ski. The weather was freezing outside but all of us were very excited. After we got the tickets we can’t wait to queue up to the equipment for ski.

Everything was new. The ski boots and ski were exceptionally heavy. I was already exhausted before I started the class. Since we all don’t know how to ski, we must attend a class before we could ski by ourselves. The couch taught us for almost one hour. He taught us how to walk on the snow and how to control the direction. During the class, I even thought that it is enough for today.

When I finally could ski by myself I was so excited. I start to ski down from the higher place. Everything was fine in the beginning until I lost the control. I felled over when the pace was getting faster and faster and finally lost control. Amazing things happened; it doesn’t hurt as I had expected when I failed down. Actually when I felled down and laid on the snow, I felt so great and relax. Haha

Happy time always go fast and also come at the right time. After faling several times I was tired and hungry. Snow ski is an exercise that can help loss a lot of calories. I have no more energy to move anymore with this heavy stuff. On the way back home everyone on the bus fall asleep.

I have a Wonderful day with my lovely friends.
