New life in Columbus

Unconsciously, I have stayed in OSU for almost 1 month. Time really flies. Although I have been in the USA several months ago, it is my first time to live here as a local people instead of a traveller. During these days, I made many new friends, saw numerous "strange" stuffs, and also met a sort of problems. Anyway, let me share my experience with you~ :)

If someone allows me to choose a color to represent the city Columbus, I will pick red, the color of Ohio football team, as my answer. It seems that nearly everyone gets a fever on their football team. When the game day come, the whole city becomes a sea of red because everyone dress something red. I cannot image somebody has the courage to wear green. As a result, whenever and wherever you go on game day, you can see the "red" army laugh, chat or acclaim. However, the football competition, such a exciting event, causes inconvenient to me since on game day, routes of buses are all changed and I am a terribly bad direction-recognizor! What I can do is stay in my doom on that day. I do not know much about football but I truly appreciate their enthusiasm.

Columbus is a nice place where you can see cute squirrels, breathe fresh air, and view the magnificent sky sight. In china, pollution is so serious that I feel the land is shrouded by a grey vault. I cannot help to looking up and taking photos of the sky. Nevertheless, the weather there changes quite irregularly and I have problem to adapt it. You can never guess what the sky looks like next second. I have to bring my umbrella with me all the time to prevent the hateful unexpected rain. A whole sunny day is what I beg right now.

What's more, I want to talk my american roommate. I seldom see her since she even does not come back doom at night. I wonder where she went and why she did not go back. Does she not like because my poor English? I really want to figure it out but I am afraid to do.

In a nutshell, my new life in Columbus is bittersweet eye-opener.
