Hanging out in Chicago

It was a long weekend last week for the independence day. All of the interns left this small town to enjoy the long weekend. I decided to go to Chicago to hang out with my friends.

On Friday, I watched a firework show sponsored by the company that I interned with. It was not a big show if compared to the government organized firework show in China. But is was great to sit outside and watch it with friends around.

After some shopping on Saturday afternoon, I hung out with couple of Chinese MBA folks in Chicago. We had some great and cheap Cantonese food in China tonw and headed over to the bar area. Unfortunately, a friend of us locked his car key at the trunk. We felt very sorry for him as he was so worried about it. We stayed with the friend and waited until he figured out how to get the key out.

Then, I had a big day on Monday. I want boating! It was my first time in US or let me say, it was my first time boating with my friends only. We had great weather that we prepared enough foods for this event. After one hour sailing on the lake michigan and enjoying the sky line of Chincago, we anchored somewhere in the lake. I jumped into the lake and swam. But the water is still very cold. It was a great Monday and I was glad that I spent time with my friends. I am pretty sure that I will come back to Chicago again this summer.

I am almost half way on my intern. Wish myself good luck.
