昨日总算所有申请都弄完了. 下午把一个University of Rochester的朋友送到Rochester机场. 她要飞到遥远的休斯顿去, 就像候鸟迁徙一样. 在机场外, 我仿佛能够闻到阔别已久的旅行的气息. 晚上Jamie和Nick都到不同人家里去搞过夜的晚会, 而Lisa和David很早就上楼睡觉去了. 于是客厅里空荡荡的.
听Lisa说纽约时代广场在新年夜晚总是很热闹. 于是11点58分我第一次在美国打开电视, 看那些熙熙攘攘的人群兴奋地倒数新年来临, 踌躇着什么时候我也可以在那里迎接新的一年. 12点钟声敲响的时候很多人接吻, 焰火如雨.
2010年来啦!
Yesterday, I finally finished all my college applications. In the afternoon I sent my friend from University of Rochester to the airport in Rochester. She was going to fly to Houston, just like the birds which migrate in every winter. Outside the airport, I could smell the sense of travel, a sensation I almost have forgotten. In the evening, Jamie and Nick went to different parties and were going to sleep over. Lisa and David went upstairs to their room pretty early. So the living room was left empty.
I heard from Lisa that Time Square in New York City is always crowded with celebrating people on new year's eve. So at 11:58 PM I turned on the TV for the first time since I arrived in USA. Looking at those excited throngs counting the seconds toward a new year, I was wondering when I could also welcome my new year at Time Square. At 12:00 PM, there were many couples kissing, with fabulous fireworks flowering like rains behind them.
Here 2010 comes!
