Exchange Diary (CityU Students)

Today I went to Wal-Mart(a super enormous supermarket in US) to get some food. Normally, we would buy as much as we can each time, because we do not have a car here and Wal-Mart is really far away from where we live! But shopping in Wal-Mart is fun. The food in US is relatively cheaper than Hong Kong and we could find many interesting snack here. After the crazy shopping, both of us were so exhausted.

University of Oklahoma offers countless activities or events for exchange students. Today is a resources fair which we may know more about different societies in OU. During the fair, we played bango and the prize of this game was really attractive! We all had fun from this.

People in OU are nice to everyone and they always willing to give us a hand for everything. After the fair, I got lost because I still cannot remember the way back home. Suddenly, one local student just stepped forward and showed me the way. This was really warm and touching.

My host university is located in a small town which takes us 40 minutes to the city. Today, my friends and I went to the Oklahoma City to have some sightseeing and visit around. In there, I could finally find some tall buildings, as Normal, where I am living in, does not have. In the city, there are so many different kinds of museums. It was a pity that we did not visit any one of them, since we only had limited time. The shopping mall there is extremely big and the goods there are cheap! Both of us did a little shopping there.

Today was so excited as my friends and I went for the NBA game. Oklahoma City has a NBA team called Thunder and they are quite famous here. When I went to the arena, there was full of people. Everyone was wearing a T-shirt with Thunder logo on it. Throughout the whole game, the atmosphere was great! Everybody shouted for Thunder. ”Let’s go Thunder!” That’s what we usually say during the game. And this time, Thunder won again!
