Some feelings in OSU theses days
Seven days have past since we arrived at OSU.Beautiful fireworks,happy shopping experiences,helpful classes,wonderful RPAC,unforgetful zoo trip...I was very happy these days with all the classmates and teachers.
Through the activities,I found Americans very friendly and warm-hearted.There are Americans greeting you with a smile wherever you go.When we ask them for directions,they answer us very patiently.Furthermore,they are very polite,for example,drivers will stop at a distance if the pedestrians are in their ways,in Wuhan,you know,drivers and pedestrians always compete for the road space,so there is always a heavy traffic....>_< American people's hospitality warms my heart and let me feel at home.
About OSU,it is a very beautiful school.It's clean everywhere and buildings have their own styles.The Ohio Student Union is a good place for relaxing,studying and communicating with others.RPAC is a wonderful place for sports.And the dormitory is much better than that in WHU...-_-# We can see the students in OSU have a very colorful campus life and they can always find a place to do what they want to do.I like OSU!
Yesterday Brieanne had a class with us about food culture in America.I'm very interesting in food culture.I found that people in America attach more importance to atmosphere
than food itself.Actually I have not got used to American food these days,but I believe that American food culture has many things for me to learn and I'll try it.
Let's enjoy the next seven days in OSU^_^

ZOO!!!!!!!!
Today it’s our ZOO day, which I have been
waiting for it since several days ago. I love animals and it was really
enjoyable for me to see lots of wild animals here because at home I don’t
really have the time.
One thing that surprised me is that the
polar bears were kept outside. I always thought that those kind of animals,
which traveled far too long to be here, should be kept indoor and as a result
their living environment would be much like the Arctic .
But then when I saw their place, suddenly I realized that it’s summer now and
if they were home it would be daytime 24 hours a day. And I don’t actually know
much about their life, for example I thought polar bears are carnassial but I
saw them eating aquatic happily. And this is how I know that there are still
plenty of things to learn. Not only things about animals. Whatever we think we
know now may not be true sometimes. So never assume something as a matter of
course. The cautious attitude should be taken all the time as we learn or see.
It’s a pity that we are back so early. I
thought I can stand the heat and keep walking until at least 3. But
unfortunately, the burning sunshine was literarily KILLING me and even made me
dizzy. And I want to thank Mike, Susy, Brieanne and Hans for taking us to the
zoo. It’s a very nice trip and I hope you enjoy your visiting as I did.:D
Here's some pictures!
Two polar bears are playing with each other! They are pretty cute! >//////<
I don't know what this is but the picture was taken just in time. It's like it was smiling! FUNNY!
This is a manatee, or sea cow. I think Susy once told us that this is her favorite. And now I know why! They are soooooooo lovely.
