Down the Street..

Yesterday, we left school at 9:00AM for Di Hua Jie. The whole 6th grade went down there to buy Chinese New Year’s decorations for our lockers, as well as our found poems. On our way there, the bus trip was pretty fun-as always. We had some crazy-fun people on our bus which was extremely awesome.. we’d sing songs from ‘High School Musical’ just for the fun of it. We also had this one thing, where Quinn would yell “EVERYBODY CLAP YOUR HANDS!” Then the whole back of the bus would start clapping. It was hilarious!!!

Then when in Di Hua Jie, almost everyone bought loads and loads of candy.. One of my friends got way too hyper, and started creeping Anjoli and me out a little bit. Although, it was really amusing at how he tried to freak Jack out with his hyper-ness. While walking through the crowded streets, you would be able to hear people talking, and men and women from the stores trying to get people to come in and buy their items.The smells were mixed up- motorbike exhaust, as they came through the streets, dried nuts, and different foods, candy, and smoke from the temples.

Soon we realized we were having too much fun, so three of us went around to a small cramped store filled with decorations for New Years. There was red everywhere you turned. Red papers, envelopes, strings, lanterns! The three of us bought our decorations, and continued on enjoying the trip. But soon enough, the buses came by to pick us up.

On our way back to school, we stuffed ourselves with more and more candy!!! Soon enough, we started to get tired of it, so when we got off the bus, Katie and I felt like puking, almost! It’s not a good feeling. Trust me. The buses got us back to school in time for our encore classes, after lunch. Honestly, I was pretty glad we were there at that time, because I wouldn’t have been able to stand being in that street with all the candy for any longer..
