As a transfer student from KSA, I was curious about Thanksgiving. My mom in America homestead  invited me and two friends to have Thanksgiving lunch with her family. She was a wonderful cook. We all sat down to a traditional meal of turkey, gravy, cranberries, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, salad and pumpkin pie. The giant turkey was like a superstar on the table!

After lunch, we had some tea and a Arabic dessert which I had made. Then we played hide and seek – it was just like being kids again, so much fun. My first Thanksgiving in the US was an incredible experience. If you’re studying here, try to celebrate it with a local family or get together with your classmates to cook your own meal. Take part in this wonderful festival and celebrate what you’re thankful for – you won’t regret it.

How is it wonderful to change your life. Change your routine change everything you usually do. I think if you do the same thing everyday your life will be boring so you need to change. Everyone needs to break the routine and live one different day in his live. We should enjoy in every moment in our life. The life will be harder if we will make it serious we should enjoy and have fun this is our life and we only live once. We should have a special day in our live when we see the Halloween the best example. All the people do something strange, and they wear something also strange they don't care about anything some of them Professor, Engineer even Prince and King. Halloween is the best holiday in the USA and I hope we have like this day in my country. Also, I hope the Halloween to be formal holiday like thanksgiving and other holiday. I hope also we have day off in the Halloween ^_^......
