Chapter 802: Hot Dog Festival
readx;? American colleges and universities pay attention to wide entry and strict exit. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It is not difficult to get into a good university, but it is not so easy to actually graduate from a university.
Therefore, after entering the university, the study rhythm is often extremely intense, and you have to deal with various assignments and exams every semester, which is more stressful.
Therefore, in order to release the stress, some students will spontaneously organize some very special activities.
These activities have become a culture and tradition on campus over time.
For example, Stanford University has a kiss festival where students gather to kiss each other on the first full moon night of each semester with the biggest kiss festival in the world.
Tufts students like to run around the stadium naked, and since the '70s, they have stripped themselves naked and run around campus in the middle of the night before the start of the winter semester.
Brown University has a "Donut Streaking" event, in which more than a dozen unrestrained students will hand out doughnuts naked to students who are hungry and studying hard during exam week.
Han Xuan had never actually spent exam week at Brown University, and naturally he had never seen the traditional doughnut activities at Brown University.
At this moment, news suddenly came on the radio that at half past eleven on the grass at the main entrance of the school, there would be a big stomach king competition.
According to the female students at the radio station, the organizers wanted to choose the guy who eats the most hot dogs, and the first prize was a "cheese hot dog" made of gold, which will be held every year for a total of 10 years.
In addition, there is also a news that from the second half of the year, the semester system of Brown University will be adjusted to start on September 1 every year, with final exams in mid-December, and then more than 20 days off.
The school starts in January of the following year, there is a spring break of about two weeks in March, the beginning of May is the time for the final exams of the spring, and around May 20th, it is the summer vacation of up to three months.
Students are free to take summer courses, go out to work, or rest at home, depending on their personal preferences.
Students who attend classes are able to earn summer credits after passing the exams, which is beneficial for graduating from school.
It seems to be good news, but now the students in the warehouse who heard the notice are complaining.
Because Rhode Island is close to the northern part of the United States, classes are not a pleasant thing to do in the cold winter months.
However, this is not what Han Xuan and Isabelle, special students who don't have to attend classes all day, should worry about.
It's late April, and there is still more than half a month to go before the summer vacation.
Isabelle asked, "I want to take advantage of this summer vacation to India, what do you think?"
"Yes, I recently designed the content of the questionnaire.
We should learn Hindi, there are teachers who teach Hindi in the language department, and we should ask Principal Gregorian in the evening. ”
Han Xuan was worried about the huge treasure buried under the temple, and planned to try it to see if there was a chance to get his hands on it, so he said with interest: "Let's go, let's go eat a hot dog, I'll treat you." ”
Isabelli said with disdain: "As I said on the radio just now, today's hot dogs are sponsored for free by the company that makes them.
But you can treat us to Starbucks coffee, I love the caramel macchiato, it tastes perfect for me......"
Grandma arrived suddenly, Han Xuan definitely didn't have the heart to continue researching, he happened to be busy for more than two weeks, and he should always have some time to rest.
clapped his hands to attract attention, and said, "You all have a holiday today, you can rest freely."
Tomorrow is Sunday, so we don't have to come, we'll continue next Monday. ”
Han Xuan privately promised that in the future, he would give priority to hiring these people to work in the Snow Mountain Investment Company, so they would be so desperate, even if they were tired, they didn't dare to say it.
Every night Han Xuan didn't leave, and they were embarrassed to go, hearing that this tyrant had a rare change of personality and said that he was going to take a holiday, there was no cheering, and some were just weak.
With a happy smile on his face, he thought that he could finally get a good night's sleep......
Grandma Tang Wan said at this time: "By the way, your grandfather asked you to pay attention to today's express."
Boeing delivered a 737-500 transport plane to the SOS Group, and it made its first test flight today, as if it had sent something to you. ”
"What sent?"
"I don't know, but it's going to be soon.
He told me in the morning that the plane had taken off and was coming to Green Airport in Providence. ”
"Oh.
Dawson, you go to the school mailroom and ask if there's any of my delivery.
Otherwise, go to the SOS 24-hour convenience store, it may be delivered with the goods, the bicycle is at the door, you can ride there. ”
Dawson touched his nose: "Let's walk on my legs, I don't know how to ride a bike."
When I get my things, I'll look for you at the main entrance of the school?"
"That's right......"
The gates of Brown University are tightly closed, and it is rarely used except for the annual admission of new students, and vehicles are not allowed to enter the campus, so two small gates are usually enough.
On the grass next to the fountain, several long tables were piled up with red hot dogs, already roasted.
Pooh was attracted by the scent of hot dogs, and was so hungry that he almost went crazy, and Han Xuan pulled the chain with great difficulty, not letting it make trouble.
Many people, like Han Xuan, didn't know in advance that the competition would be held today, and they were coming from all over the place after hearing the announcement.
Seeing the colorful banners tied between the two trees, with the words "Tyson Food" written on them, how could Han Xuan not guess who the organizer was this time, it must be the fat man in Orlando again.
Orlando, a scumbag, finds school life boring, so he often organizes messy activities to add fun to himself......
Today is Saturday, so there are no classes.
There are many students who have time, and there are nearly a thousand people standing on the grass.
Orlando was heard holding the microphone and shouting, "Welcome!
The game lasts for 20 minutes, not counting bread, only eating hot dogs, drinking water is allowed halfway, but not going to the toilet, whoever eats more is the first place!
See this trophy in my hand?
It weighs a kilogram in total! If anyone can get it, then they won't have to worry about living expenses for the next few years!
But I don't think it's very likely that you'll win, because I'll be participating!"
After speaking, he patted his stomach proudly, this capacity alone was enough to kill the vast majority of people present.
But there are always some who don't admit defeat, such as Owen, the bodyguard who can also eat, he muttered: "It's so arrogant......"
"You want to try it too?"
Han Xuan didn't wait for him to answer after asking, put his hands to his mouth and shouted: "Orlando!
Is the competition only for students from our school?
Can someone else?!" (To be continued.) )
