C'est la vie...

It's time for the annnual Cotillion ball. Cherished by many, hated by most, it's the time when Newport's finest young ladies enter society. More information about Jimmy's business trouble comes to light, and Kirsten's loan to Jimmy is not happy news for Sandy.

Sandy comes to Ryan's rescue once again, after he has a difficult stay in Juvenile Hall. Seth makes Kirsten aware of his anger over Ryan's situation, and Kirsten makes a compromise.

Faced with the prospect of life in a group home, Ryan decides to run away from Newport, but Seth and Marissa convince him to stay and hide in a vacant building project.

A new life for Ryan Atwood, the Cohen and the Cooper families, and basically everyone else in the wealthy, picturesque, secretive, turbulent community of Orange County.

For a freshman in college, you need to have some fun. Don't worry about those classic novels or other masterpieces in English. If reading classics is not fun for you, why bother? Find something you love to read, something that worth burning the late night oil, something to die for. Learning English is supposed to be a journey full of adventure and excitement instead of a task to fulfill as part of your plan to land a job. Don't lose your hope to master English language. You can do it since thousands and thousands of Chinese students have done it!
