9 days away from New York, the weather turned rather cool. Fall
had come and everyone is expecting the season of leaves changing. Now I looked
back at this unexpected trip to UK,
surely, there was something I experienced on the road worth a talk.

Tourists are used to ignoring another icon
besides Statue of Liberty in this city, the New York Taxi. Though it’s never
considered as one of must-do things on the travel plan, everyone can talk like
gossip girls whenever experiences of New York Taxi is spoken of. So it deserves
a couple of pages in the journey.

Last Weekend, my Japanese friend “Hiro”
traveled back to Tokyo
for his Labor Day vacation. When I heard about the plan, an idea came into my
mind right away. Why don’t we do something special and give Ladybird a surprise.
So I asked Hiro to be my personal “Worldwide Express Boy”.

A lot of things happened in the last few
weeks, something good and something bad.
First of all, three of my friends planed to
visit me from Taiwan,
two already went back; the other one is on the flight and will arrive here
tomorrow. These three girls planed to come at different time, one after one to fill
up my schedule of August. I think the August of mine should be called “Hang-out
Month”. I did nothing but hang out instead of going to center, volunteer and
swimming pool. Besides, I didn’t know a human being could get tired of hanging
out before- -now I do, very much so.

This Wednesday, we have a good topic for
our study group. “Books”, each one will share one of their favorite books, the
new lesson we are trying to practice is to arouse others’ curiosity with
English presentation.

Last week, I found two members in the
center to join the study group, and we carried on our meeting again. The discussion
with new members was smooth, I was really happy that I found someone to share
the same desire.

I had an idea to make a plan of Boston trip, then I did.
Here is the plan.
DAY 1

July 18  2009
Friday afternoon, I was studying in the
Center. Concentrating on a text book is something extremely hard, I fell asleep
again and again after reading a couple of pages. Altoids peppermint and Starbucks
coffee were so useless. I thought the reason was because Friday night is
coming, and I am going out with Misato.

I feel good about last week, because I did
study almost everyday. In the whole two weeks before last week, I left my study
behind and hangout with friends every day and every night. That did leave me a feeling
of guilt, though I had a really good excuse.
