The Mid-Autumn Festival

Tuesday 13th September,2011 Sunny

Yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival but every kid still needed to go to school. My classmates and I shared some fruit and mooncakes after lunch. I ate one yummy mini mooncake and many peanuts. Then, every class went to the playground because we had to attend an activity for the Mid-Autumn Festival. It was to solve some lantern riddles. At last, I finished my riddle so I could get a small present. However, all the presents were sweets and pencils. I didn’t want this kind of presents and I didn’t take any.

The school ended at ten past three. My mum said that my brother and I could sleep over at my aunt’s place if we finished our homework before dinner. At last, we finished our homework by six. We went to my aunt’s home to have a union dinner with my grandparents, uncles and aunts and cousins. We ate many delicious foods. My cousins, brother and I watched TV after dinner. Then, Dad and Mum left. My brother and I read many books and played the light sticks for hours. We went bed at a quarter past twelve. We slept together on four big mattresses which were laid on the floor instead of on the bed.  It was an interesting way of sleeping. I hope that we will also have lots of fun the next Mid-Autumn Festival.
