Christmas shopping

　　　I had never been to Canterbury because I thought that the town is only good for shopping. I need to save my money, and I am a person who is easily obeys her own desire. So I need some reason to go to there.
　　　Anyway I want to Canterbury with my ex-class mate who went to Broadstairs to watch the fireworks with me. There were so many people enjoying Cristmas shopping in spite of the cold day. We had lunch at the Italian restaurant which was build along the main street. I had heard that English spaghetti is not aldente even in restaurants. Indeed, it was unbelievably soft although its taste was not bad. It was a strange thing for me because I like aldente spaghetti. Every day I'm surprised by English culture, and enjoy it. Then we went to many shops until it got completely dark.
　　　I bought pierced earing which is shaped a ball of football. And I boughut "Mini Chris Mouse." It is a little stuffed mouse which wear the costume of father Christmas, and it carrying the green bag with sweets inside. My room became slightly Christmasy because of it and a card which was send from my e-maile friend.
