Happy Friday

This Friday, I was very happy because the severe weather we had one day off. In the morning we didn’t expect that bad weather will be an excuse for off class. My roommate went to school as usual, and then she called back saying nobody is in school and the campus and all building gates are closed. Actually, I don’t think it was necessary to cancel the class just because the weather like Friday. Of course, we always are happy if we do have to go to school even thought there is no good reason. However, this phenomenon will never happen in china. I told this to my friend in China, and all of them feel strange. It is ridiculous if one of student is absent just because the bad weather and it is 100 percent that he will be disciplined for his behavior. I attended my studies from elementary school to university in china for more that 14 years, and this situation never happened, never. Maybe this is the culture difference between china and USA. It is a very joyous thing attending school in USA because there are a lot of holiday except the summer and winter holiday. Further more the summer and winter holiday is much longer that in china. Ever thought it is not a good student always thinking about holiday, I think, the more holiday the better.
