thanksgiving break 2011

I had four more days of break than others. I had only one ENGR 103 class on Monday morning, but I didn’t go there (overslept). That day I went to Wabash Landing movies to “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1”. This was boring, except the last scene, when Bella turns into a vampire. Then I went to “Happy Feet Two”. I was expecting it to be enthralling, but it did not meet my expectations. The first movie was better.

On Tuesday (or on Wednesday) three friends went to Aurora shopping mall. I was looking for a jacket, but I could not find anything I liked. The only thing I bought was a hat from GAP.

On Thursday we celebrated Thanksgiving, (actually Kazakhs don’t celebrate it). It was just a “motive” to gather Kazakh students in one place. We went to a friend’s apartment and had turkey dinner.
At Black Friday I went to Chicago with the same guys. We went through Michigan Avenue; I bought a jacket at Columbia and two sweaters at Banana Republic. After shopping we drove to the Millenium Park. Then we took pictures with Marilyn Monroe sculpture.

On Saturday I went to play soccer. On Sunday evening I eventually was able to start writing an essay and finished it by 5 am. (I got extension for this assignment).
