Winter Break

Winter break was the best time I had because of Christmas, New Year,and my 17th birthday. For Christmas, my family and I played poker. Our rule was that if we want to play it, we must pay 10 dollars for it. It was pretty a good idea because everyone just paid to play it even though it was expensive. I never played it before, so I was a person who was losing first. My cousin explained how to play it, and wrote down on the paper for me what full house and straight are, but I did not still get them, My cousin won. Then, she bought pizza at a restaurant for us. We enjoyed with the food, and we went to our own room. After that, I did not want to sleep because I was so excited. After I downloaded a movie " August Rush", I watched it with my two brothers Minwoo and Jinyoung in my room. And then, we went to sleep.

On New Year's morning, my two brothers and I lined up front of my grandparents, aunt, and uncle after we groomed ourselves. We bowed down them. Each person get a lucky bag, and there was money inside the bag. Also, I planned out what my goals are for New Year. First is to get good scores on SAT. Second saves money to buy a SONY laptop. The last one is to lose weight. Everything is up to me how I spend time in 2011. I know this year is very important because I should start preparing for SAT1 and SAT2. I really hope my first desire will come true next year, so I can get accepted from UCSD.

My 17th birthday was not that good because that day my friend and I planed going to Grove and some places we can enjoy ourselves, but she had to go to a trip, and I had to go to tutoring. Therefore, I was kind of depressed. After I came back home from the tutoring with exhausted, my family and I dined out at Pho restaurant to celebrate my birthday. I got money for gifts. I thought I would get shoes or clothes, but I satisfied with them. My parents and two sisters who live in Kroea called for my birthday. I was so happy to hear from them.
