26th, Sep, 2004: Autumn comes

Yes!! It's almost October. I can feel that it's already autumn. Green grass has already turned yellow. Fallen leaves on the ground. Those are the indications for the autumn. I can't wait for the Xmas come. I can't wait for the season holidays. I still don't know what I will do for this year's Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'm not planning to go back to Hong Kong during Christmas. It's so inconvenient to go to the airport. It's not cheap to go back either. So that means I'd have to stay in the US for the long, cold and boring winter. I'd go nuts for sure. I bought a Chinese wok for cooking mouth watering dishes. I still cannot find any International or Oriental grocery store. I need real rice for cooking. Not American long grain rice.......T_T. I really want to practice making fried rice I'm afraid I'd end up playing christmas songs in my apartment by myself. T_T
