Every second Tuesday in November is Melbourne Cup day
I knew it since I came to Perth
Even last time I've been Melbourne but I know nothing about this
And today is the second Tuesday in November
Which is mean Melbourne Cup day
In Australia everyone celebrate it
Well, let me simply explain a bit about this
Melbourne Cup is Australia's major annual horse race
Of course, it was held in Melbourne
'Fashion On The Field' is a major focus of the day
Ladies required to dress up nicely with a elegant hats
Gentle need a formal suit with tie
And many people will have a bet on the race
Indeed, I'm not to joining to this game and not really interesting about horse racing
Since the day before my teacher gave us a draw to pick up our lucky horse
So, I got the possibility to won a prize that she prepared to us
Today,we were supposed to finish our class in 12.30pm
Due to the racing is starting on 12am and my teacher couldn't miss out the race
All of us went to the library, there got a TV with the live show
There got quite some students and teacher over there
Library wasn't a quiet place for today
Everyone were so excited, actually I quite enjoy the mood
And guess what, my horse run the first CHAMPION
Was little unpredictable because at the first it not even run the top five
Although my prize was just only a box of chocolate but I love the feeling of winning
it makes me feel so great
Anyway, the first Melbourne Cup I play a part in with a very good experience
I will see U next year ~~!!
