I have been studying at Heartland for 4 months. What I like most are the interesting activities on Fridays when I can comfortably chat with my schoolmates to expand my circle of friends. It‘s also a great way to help me recharge my batteries and become acquainted with a new life skill. I wish Friday would come soon so I could enjoy it with my friends to improve my English communication skills. Fortunately, I vividly remember last weekend that we had the opportunity to compete with amazing friends in the sport of pools and billiards.
I admit that my passion is billiards and pools because of a variety of reasons. Firstly, these activities bring me comfortable laughter and recall beautiful memories of my time as a university student. Secondly, I was impressed with the interior decoration of the billiards sport center which coordinates traditional and modern styles that help players seem to forget the time to enjoy their life. Additionally, nothing pleased me more than giving the balls to the holes and making scores with the surprise of friends. I will never miss any chance to join interesting activities in the future.
Heartland always special in my heart not only because it’s an English school but also because it’s my second house. I will never miss any chance to join interesting activities in the future.

Going to Bourbon Street Billiards with my classmates was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the lively atmosphere and the hum of friendly chatter set the tone for a fun-filled evening. The place was buzzing with energy, and the music added an extra layer of excitement to the night. We all gathered around the pool tables, ready to dive into some friendly competition. The tables were in great condition, making the game even more enjoyable. I was immediately struck by how different and refreshing it felt to hang out with my classmates outside of the school environment.
As we started playing, the spirit of camaraderie took over. We cheered each other on, shared tips, and occasionally teased each other over missed shots. It was a great way to bond and break the ice with classmates I didn’t know very well. The laughter and light-hearted banter made it clear that everyone was having a good time. We rotated teams to ensure everyone got a chance to play, which kept the energy high and the games exciting. Between matches, we grabbed snacks and drinks, adding to the laid-back and fun vibe of the evening.
By the end of the night, it felt like we had created some wonderful memories together. The experience at Bourbon Street Billiards not only allowed us to relax and have fun but also strengthened our friendships. We left with smiles on our faces, already talking about our next visit. It was the perfect way to unwind from the pressures of school and enjoy each other’s company in a different setting. I can’t wait for our next outing, and I’m grateful for the great time we had together at Bourbon Street Billiards.
