Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
I know, it’s not Thanksgiving for all of you reading my blog, neither is it actually Thanksgiving here in China (though I do get a lot of messages from my Chinese friends wishing me a happy Thanksgiving). But living in an American community, I get to celebrate this holiday and experience all the good things that come with it.
- I get a day off school, which makes me and my students really happy!
- I got to see my first ever American Football game live today, as some of my American colleagues try to continue their holiday traditions and organize a football match (the so-called “Turkey-Bowl”).
- I got to enjoy one of the biggest meals of the year, including a real turkey (that is making me quite sleepy right now).
So, yes, there are many reasons why to be thankful for a day like today!
