Forrest Gump I heard this movie's information a lot, but I didn't watch it before. Finally, I had a chance to see it. After I watched this movie, it really inspired me. I really appreciated his attitude of doing thing, even some boring things he also could do it again and again and better than he did before. I want to follow his step to do everything perfectly, but I always give up in the middle. I think I need to make some goals that can prompt me to get it. All in all, this is a good and classic movie. If you have a time, you should watch it, even I did, but I also wanna see again.

My ankle I feel very terrible because of my ankle. I don't know why it get really hurt after doing exercise. Especially, my left ankle is swollen. Tomorrow I'll go to podiatry. Hope I can know why it happened.

Thanksgiving in Colorado This is really unforgettable experience to me. We had a road trip. It was cool and took about 14 hours-drive from Texas to my friend's house in Colorado. The first day we arrived. It's around 10 a.m.. We took a nap because we are tired. Then my friend's family started to prepare the thanksgiving feast to everyone who went to her house. When I saw all of food on the table, I was so surprised. They prepared a lot food which had a huge turkey, ham, duck, ox's tail...etc. I almost tried each meals. Before having dinner, we took a picture which there are around 25 persons in. The second day we travel around some places near her house. We went to pipe peaks and Garden of Gods. I felt a little pity because we didn't reach the top of the pipe peak because of snow. But I was still feel both of them were beautiful,awesome, and spectacular. At night, my countryman and I tried to feedback to my friend, so we prepared many Taiwanese food to her friends and family. It was really special and cool that cooking in foreigner's house. The third day we went to snowboarding and this is also my first time to attempt it. In the beginning, I felt a little scared. Fortunately, my friend's husband he was a instructor for snowboarding, so we took a kind of free lesson. During this time,we took the lift to the top of mountain. In that time, I knew why so many people like to snowboard and ski. The view over there was fabulous and beautiful. In the end, I learned how to stop, move left and right and some tricks on it. I felt confidence. After we arrived home, we had the party called victory shot. Some guys drank a lot of wine and beer. I also enjoyed in that time. The last day I wish I could stay more days and live there. But it's time to go back to Texas. Before we left, we said goodbye and give my friend some hugs. In that moment, my tear just around my eyes. Hope I also have chance to visit them again.

Meet my friend again I'm really happy today because I meet my friend whose name is Sanica. I knew her three months ago because of training in Virginia. She is nice and welcome. Why I said that because she was kind and patient to listen to me to talk. When I was in Fort Eustis, she invited me to try the food of their country. I loved it, but just a little salty. It is still a delicious meal. Hope I have a chance to try again. Today she doesn't tell us that she'll come here to see us. I'm a little shocked and happy because she lives in Colorado. She is not suppose to be here. After we meet her, I take her to our senior's room to talk for a while. Then we are gonna visit her in Colorado on thanksgiving. I also search on the internet. Colorado is a beautiful place and also good for skiing or snow-boarding. I can't wait to see her. I'm pretty upset because I feel my English is not good enough. During our chat, sometime I can't say what I really wanna tell. Sometime I can't explain very well. I promise myself that I will enhance my English ability before I go back to my country.

Playing basketball It was really nice and warm, so I decided to play basketball with my friends. I haven't played it for three months. When I played in ten minutes, I felt my legs are sore and I almost couldn't breathe smoothly. I was thinking whether I am old now. But I guess I didn't work a couple weeks and ate too much. My weight is go straight up. I'm a little afraid now, so I make a decision that exercising every day as far as I can. There are many gyms in the America, especially on the post and also a lot of people working out in here. I like it and hope I can lose some weight before I go back my country.

San Antonio This is the first place I visited. I had been here one year ago. I had many good time in San Antonio. First, I met many people from different countries. For instance, Saudi Arabia, South Korean, Omen, Thailand...and so on. I can't count. I also learned some greeting form them. It was really cool stuff. I also came here to learn English in DLI. After two weeks, I was still shy to speak English, but I told myself. I could overcome this problem. Now I almost did it, but I wanna improve my English particularly listening and speaking. Second, I almost visited popular places in San Antonio, like as Alamo, River walk, Mexican Marketplace...etc. Alamo was very historical place which the most Texas people are proud of. This is what I thought. And River Walk is a really beautiful sightseeing point. Especially going there at night. In the Mexican Marketplace, I ate many kinds of Mexican food. It's totally different from Taiwan. I like to play basketball so I also went to Spurs stadium to watch NBA game. It was pretty awesome. Third, I knew some people from Taiwan here also. They came here to open the restaurant which called "Gin's Restaurant" The food in here were pretty authentic. If you have chance, you should try it. The boss he is nice and welcome too. When I first time saw him, he spoke Taiwanese. It was really familiar language to me. Last weekend, I also went back to Gin's Restaurant with my friend. Last time I tried their food again. Then I wanna cry, because that food just like what I ate in Taiwan. I wish I could live there. I also visited the American Tower. It was not tall, but view was beautiful. All in all, I had many wonderful experiences in San Antonio.

Fun in Texas!! I've been in TX for one month. I did many things that I haven't done in my country. It's really special for me. Like fishing, shooting. I also learned how to deal with fishes. I have a lots of fun here.
