Thanksgiving Dinner and Thanksgiving Jamboree

Thanksgiving day is coming soon. I am looking forward to celebrating Thanksgiving day because this is my first time feeling Thanksgiving day here. In my opinion, only the United States of America has this memorial day, and no other countries do. I read some articles about the history of this holiday in my class and I know that President Roosevelt order this day to become the national holiday. The professor introduces some traditional food people usually eat on Thanksgiving day, such as turkey, corn, yams, cranberries and squash. I eat some of these traditional food in Thanksgiving dinner which is hold by Rosa. Rosa invites international students and out-of -state students to enjoy a big dinner and happy reunions. After dinner, I see a amazing show, Thanksgiving Jamboree. There are piano shows, guitar shows and dancing shows. All of the performers play very well. I like the dance troupe most because their pose and action shows the strength and beauty and music convey the emotion. They say a story by dancing and using their bodies. It is a great night.
