We made jack o lanterns, sang songs, played games, and chose the cutest costume in the class. When we had around 10 people in the party, all the girls were wearing a dress like Cinderella or Bell's except for one girl. She was wearing a devil costume which she and her mom made together. Her costume was super cute and everyone was saying that it was the cutest In the class. Her costume was the most popular one. I also thought hers was the cutest. It was so much fun having juice and snacks together. Did you wear a costume for Halloween? What kind of costume was it? What are you going to do for Halloween this year? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mel-u/message

Where do you go by car? Can you drive a car? When did you get your driver's license? Which car do you ride? (what car do you have?) Do you need a car in the town you live in? When I was in Japan, I didn't want to drive a car. I thought it was scary. I didn't need a car because I lived in Tokyo. But now, I'm liking it because it's fun to drive a car. I go shopping by car. My family and I went to Canada by car in summer break. I live in Chicago, therefore it took us about 10 hours by car. It's long, right? I got exhausted but it was fun. I don't have a driver's license, but I got it in the US. I need a car in my town. Buses and trains are available but they're not convenient. I have a blue Matrix (car). I think it's a really cool one. I like listening to music while I drive a car. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mel-u/message
