Start of Week 4 and Our Foot Massage Adventure

Ayden Writes:

March 3, 2008

Today I went to school. My first subject was Chinese. During Chinese class my teacher was calling out words and the students were writing them down. My next subject was morning exercises. Today instead of morning exercises we raised the Chinese flag. The Chinese flag is red with four yellow stars, three small and one big star. The first thing we did was the raising of the flag. Next three people gave speeches. I don’t know what the speeches were about because they were in Chinese. Then we sang a song. I didn’t know the words so I decided not to sing. After raising the flag, my teacher told me that I would be getting a uniform. The uniform I got is very ugly. When I got back to my classroom my class was having math. After math class we had eye exercises. After eye exercises we had computer class. My next subject was music. We sang a song about spring. After music class, I went down stairs to meet my mom, my sister and my brother. They were all waiting for me. And that was my day at school.

On Saturday in the afternoon I got a foot massage that included back, shoulders, hands and legs. When Gavi, my mom and I got to the massage place, the employees showed us where to go and they gave us outfits to change into. First, they massaged our hands and then our feet. My mom was trying to talk to the employees in Chinese. She tried to ask them if they were students but instead she asked them to get hot water. The massage felt really good. I was sad when I had to leave.
