Writing exercise

Last sunday, I had inflammation in my stomach and could eat nothing. It also made me hurt even I drunk a little water, so I had to got a drip for a day in the hospital and took medicine for a week. I tried best to recover myself since I would travel to yunnan two weeks later. I went to yunnan once before, but it is still so excited that I can run out of the boring day to day’s work and relax myself for a while. I have a wish that I can have a trip to arctic with my friends. We can go camping beside sea and watch aurora and stars at night. Under the night-sky, we talk about anything we want with each other or just say nothing to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
