It all started at 1:00am May 25th, when I was about to go to bed. Suddendly I heard "Bang! Bang! Bang!" coming across from the street, sounded like some explosions. I looked out through the window, OMG! the house facing my apartment was on fire! I knew it's a newly-built house, just finished the decorating, waiting for a buyer, so no one lived there. The fire spreaded out from second floor to the entire house very quickly. At first I thought the neighbours live next to the firing house would call 911, but it seemed that they were all gone for Memorial day holiday weekend. It's very likely that nobody except me noticed the fire. So I picked up my cell phone and called 911 (for the first time in my life). About a minute later, six fire trucks drove into the street, following by police cars and ambulances. It took the firefighters over an hour to put out the fire. Yes, it's really a huge fire, and something in that house or the house itself was extremely inflammable.

I stayed awake until most of the fire trucks and police cars left the street, and it was almost 4:00am then. I knew I must get some sleep ASAP because I had a wedding to attend in couple of hours!!

Then some Z's....
Then it was this beautiful wedding of Adam and Ashley.

Whew! What a day!

  留学于我而言最大的诱惑莫过于可以体验一种完全不同的生活，在地球的那一端，说着不同的语言，遇见各种各样的人，感受着独立的人生带给我的种种感悟。那些在国外留学的朋友们不知道有没有同感，每次回国小住一段日子的时候，那感觉就像进入了另一个时空，语言迥然不同，身边的人没有交集，食物，气候，心情没有一样是相同的。然后想起在国外的生活，仿佛那是一出戏，自己只是刚刚演完自己的角色，回到了家。我很庆幸我能在这个遥远的国家里演一个小小的角色,这个角色给了我太多不曾料想到的经历；我更庆幸的是在我疲倦的时候,可以退出这角色,回到一个永远称之为家的地方。
