Last weekend 2 friends, my husband and I visited Thousand Islands. Saturday at 8am We took the train for 45min, Shanghai to Hangzhou. When we arrived in Hangzhou we booked a black car to our hotel, Sheraton and the journey took 2 hours and 30 minutes. When we checked in, the hotel upgraded our rooms, so instead of the view to the garden we had the view to the lake. Although these were good news but, the joy soon turned into disappointment, when the receptionist informed us that the outdoor swimming pool was closed. We chose this expensive hotel only for the view and the swimming pool so we screamed/ complained because there was no information on the website. He explained to us that this was the government‘s fault, as it has decided that every hotel should open their outdoor pools only on the 15th of July.

Yesterday during my english class Celeste asked me if I felt good, I said yes. It was true. I was having a hard time with my vocabulary and was a little distracted but I felt good. After the lesson while I was going home my vision started to become blurred and I had pins and needles on my left arm. I thought: “Oh no, not that and not while I’m on the street alone”. I knew what was happening to me, so I immediately wrote and sent a message to inform my husband, saying that I was having a crisis outside. I did it because I was afraid that my vision could disappear completely for a moment. I walked faster but with difficulty, because my sight was blurred. Finally I arrived home, took my medicine,  closed the curtains to block the light and fell asleep.
