Evening in Kaifeng
Following the banquet, most of us attended a pub called Sun Dry, I believe, which was the first bar in the city. The entire place was filled with Henan University students, most of them were female English majors. There were a few male students among them who were also English majors, but this is not a common major for boys when compared with math, science, and engineering. They were interested in talking about American hobbies, school, and western traditions. It was very nice to interact with other students to learn their perspectives on life and how our two cultures differ. Students here do not go out in the evenings as much as Americans students do because the school gates close around eleven each evening. Yet, Chinese like to Karaoke and sing songs by Lady Gaga.
