It's been days since I last blog. How's everyone in Singapore?? Hope everyone are doing fine back in Singapore.
The time now is 6.46pm, Thursday in Oklahoma City. Yesterday was a thrilling experience that I've encountered. First time in my life did I heard the tornado warning and the tornado siren. Yes! Oklahoma City was been hit by a tornado. Some of the buildings have been damaged and thousands of houses had their electricity cut off.
I was on the bus from our gym outing back to school when the siren went off and we were like in the bus going around our campus looking for the other group of the people (FYI, we are splitted into two groups). The rain were heavy and the wind were very strong, from the bus view, I can see cars been moved by the wind. Yes, the cars moved, by the wind, can you imagine how strong the wind is?
Initially we were planned by the school to go to Quil Springs Mall, which was deemed cancelled due to bad weather condition. And we should consider ourselves lucky as the mall got some damages during the tornado strike and we were just end our lesson, which if the tornado comes a bit later, we will be hit by it.
But well, it's quite an experience and first time in my life did I experience it. The only thing is I didn't see any tornado, but hey, if I do see a tornado, I think I won't he here type this entry anymore.
Well, three weeks has passed by very fast and we have to bid a goodbye to our OCU campus very soon. Well, it's been a wonderful time here in Oklahoma and the professors here are very very friendly people. This Saturday will be our big day - Graduation Day. But I have yet to get any white blouses and pants for that even, darnz.
Will have to go to Penn Square Mall to get it tomorrow in preparation for Saturday's 1st Graduation Ceremony. Argh ~~~ I'm so excited.
Alright, let's rewind back to last Saturday. We were organised by our school to go Dallas for Shopping. And I can tell you, the mall is BIG, and I mean it. It's BIG. It's almost three combined football field, and it's that big. Well, there were many discounted items there as many factory outlets are there. But not all designs they have it there. Mainly the designs that could be found online cannot be found there as they are new items. But there are several good buys there. I bought quite a few things there and when I got the chance, I take pictures of them and post it up to show you all.
Next week I'll be going New York and will be visiting their factory outlet again. It's another bbig big outlet which have discounted stuff. Oh, did I mention that their Levi's is superly cheap. It's US$20 to US$30. Cheap right. Will, anyone can tell me which number is the most comfortable for Levi's? I want to get my first Levi's jeans here in America. Haha.
Alright, I'm going for my dinner at the Spaghetti Warehouse near to my hotel. When I'm back and if I'm not tired, I'll take some of the pictures and post it online here.
Stay tuned.
