It was a ______ holiday! because ...
I think it was a MARVELOUS holiday. I did not go anywhere except for my Taipei house. I went visiting my grandma in the hospital and she's been doing fine however the doctors are still looking after her carefully. At Taipei, the weather was not so good with some rain but we still had some fun. We went making Brittle Plums but these Taiwan plums look different because it's way smaller and it has a color of apple green. It was a special but tiring experience! When we arrive to Taichung, I knew rest of my holiday would be boring because I have no where to go. Fortunately, my mom took us to shopping and afterwards we went swimming. My sister also baked some delicious cookies and carrot & bannana cakes HERSELF, WITH NO HELP! IT WAS VERY VERY GOOOOD! During this spring break, the happieset event I did was volunteering. I went to a school for blind kids and I get to help out. I played with them, sang with them, communicate, interact, taught them math, had ceramic classes with them! Everything I did with them was very very fun because I learned so many things. People might think those blind disabled kids are disgusting but I don't think so because some of them are very very cute! Eventhough some kids had autism and some can't talk, I feel very happy spending time with them.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to accomplish everything on my list that I was planning to do.
But I did go exercising, because on the first week, I went running at a very big park near my house and I also went biking.

It's a nice song in which the singer expresses his love for a blind woman named Mary. My favorite verse is the third one. Check it out!

PS Why was the secret word "chattel"?
