GEO Excellence Award Article IV

5Th Day Travel Diary
By - Choi Eunbi, Choi Yunseo
We all woke up at 6:30 A.M and had breakfast. It was yogurt, bread, salad, cereal and fruit. Almost everyone loved the jam called NUTELLA, especially Hyun-young, she wants to take it when she goes back to Korea. After breakfast, we had 2hours to prepare for the writing and speaking classes. Everyone did one's duties during the 2 hours; some did homework for the day, some took a shower, some listened to music, and others seem to take a rest.
Our first class was writing, we finished re-writing first and second essays and completed the third essay. All the topics were very similar with the subject from TOEFL therefore; it was very familiar to us. The third topic was about the best way of how to release one's stress. Every student wrote individual way of reducing stress and submitted to Darlene our teacher.
After the essay, Darlene prepared lunch for us. The menu was crab cake, beef, coconut shrimp, curry and Korean seafood soup. We all wanted to have crab cake which is famous among young Americans and Darlene cooked for us. It was very delicious that we even asked for the recipe.
After having lunch, we had our second class which is reading and debating. First we had to read article about American president- JFK and Lincoln, after we had debate on following topic- agree or disagree with having a bottle of water.

For the night, we decided to have a snow fight outside and have dinner as our last schedule for the day. Playing outside in the weather was cold yet, it was very fun. After the snow fight we ate dinner at a restaurant called Slider. I heard, it is a very popular place for young people to party and watch sports games. There we ate a lot of chicken because Slider is famous for their spicy chicken. We had a very good time eating delicious food. We were all satisfied with the spicy chicken.
