5th Speaking Circle Meeting Report
March 22, 2015

            On Friday, March 20, my group and I met at Starbucks in Wells Hall. It was the first week of school after spring break, and it was a good chance for us to talk about it. Faris went to Cancun and had fun doing many tourists things such as fishing, and surfing. He also said the weather there was so want and it was so nice to take a break from Michigan winter. Vickie talked about her trip to Orlando, FL. She and almost fifty students from MSU took a bus from East Lansing to Orlando, and it took them around fifteen hours driving. Though they had a lot of fun like visiting Universal Studio. Also, they enjoy the warmth over there. Ziyi visited her friends in Maryland for couple days. She said it was good to see and hang out with them. They did not do something special but relaxing and going out shopping and eating. Finally, it was my turn but there is nothing special about my spring break because I did not go anywhere. I spent my time in East Lansing enjoying the warm days and hanging out with my American friends.
            This meeting was so much fun for all of us because everyone talked about what s/he did and saw. Also, some of us got a brief idea about different places so they could go and visit for their next vacation. I felt we were more relaxed and happy because we just came back from a nice vacation. Though we forgot to take a picture before Ziyi leaves because she has another meeting. The meeting was more than an hour.   

            The meeting went really well. All the group members were so comfortable to speak because now we know each other better. Also, we understood each other easier than the first couple meeting. I think that because we do not have the anxiety of make mistakes anymore in front of each other. I really find those meeting are very helpful for us not just to improve our English, but also to learn how to communicate with other people from different cultures.

  1. Hi Ali,
    Nice selfie. I was wondering if you could tell me some of places in the U.S. that you and your groups talked about it and you think these good places to visit because after the end of this semester I might go to one of them. What is more, I agree with you totally that those meeting are very helpful for us not just to improve our English, but also to learn how to communicate with other people from different cultures.
