I remembered when I was an exchange student in America in 2008, I had a lot of fun with my host family and I was kind of sad to go home in June. Since my birthday is in July and I came to America in August, I could not spend my birthday in America, which is kind of depressing. However, to my surprise, on a normal Sunday morning, about three days before I went back to China, I woke up in the morning and went downstairs to have breakfast, to my surprise, downstairs was decorated with many colorful balloons and small cute decorations. I was not sure what was going on at that moment because I did not expect they would celebrate my birthday at all. By the time I went to the dining room, I saw a box which had a card on it said “to Mengtian”. I opened it up and there were two cute dresses in it. I could not believe my mom bought them after we went shopping because I said I fell in love with those dresses first time I saw them, but they are way too expensive. When I got the gift, I was screaming and could feel tears coming out of my eyes. What’s more, all my friends showed up and celebrated my birthday with me. I had a really happy and unforgettable birthday in America. This was the best day ever, the best surprising birthday party and best gift I have ever gotten.
That's so cool, your host family seems really nice! Surprises are the best.
