My Homestay Mother

     I feel I am so lucky because I have a very nice homestay mother. I have an more intersting Winnipeg life because of her. My homestay mother is a thin with brown hair women. I feel she is like my second mother and I love her so much. My homestay mother is so kind. I can do and eat anything I want at home and I can bring my friends to came home. She said:" Because here is your home." I am so happy and I don't wanna move out even though my home is far from school.  

     When I just came here, I didn't know English. For sure, I just know some simple sentences and words. Even though I didn't know how to speak English, my homestay mother also talked to me. She didn't seem annoying, it made me felt comfortable and have an courage to speak a little English with her. When I said wrong sentence, she always correct for me and tell me how I can say it correctly. In last winter I was so clod because I just came here and my city is very warm city. Before I was afraid to tell her because I thought it was not good idea, but I really felt cold and I couldn't sleep well at  night. I felt the whole house was clod! Finally, I couldn't bear it, then I told my homestay mother I felt cold at my room. She was surprised and she said she has already turned on the heater. Second day, she brought a new small heater with her when she got home!! I didn't know what I should say at that moment, I just said Thanks to her. I still use it until now.:) 

       Sometimes, my homestay mother invite my roommate and I to join some activities with her. Last year, she invited us to went to Ballet! She paid for us! That day is my first time to watched ballet performance at Winnipeg. I felt so excited and happy. It was awesome ballet dancing! Before I came here, I know art in Winnipeg is very famous. Also, my homestay mother drove us to a small town which is outside of Winnipeg, to visited some beautiful gardens in last summer. Even though the weather was so hot for me( I hate summer's sun), I also came with her and I was glad I came because those gardens is amazing! I didn't know the garden can be created like that before. The gardens owner was also good to us and asked some questions to me and my roommate. When they know we are from another country, they was very happy because no foreigner visit to their garden before. 

      The Chinese New Year of this year is the most happy day for me. My homestay mother made a very big dinner for us! When the dinner started, my homestay mother and her boyfriend said to us:" This is for Chinese New Year for my roommate and I because we don't know how to cook Chinese food, so we cooked other food instead.Hoping you guys will like." My roommate and I was very very SURPRISED! Because we thought it's for her daughter, her daughter doesn't live with us. On Chinese New Year, she came home for dinner with us. During dinner, we talked a lot about China. We drank and laughed. After dinner, my homestay mother's boyfriend gave us cake which is he bought. And!! My homestay and her boyfriend gave us red pocket and card!! We were MORE SURPRISED! This meal made me very moved! I love my homestay family! We said to them:" Thanks very much!" I almost wanted to cry because in China, all the family will be together at that day, and I was with my family too!:)
