Blog 2 An exciting basketball game

I think I am very lucky because my host family is really great, they have held several
activities for us, enabling us to know more about Singapore. Recently, they had booked the basketball court in NUS in advance and invited us to go there. Surprisingly, there were many young American people playing basketball there, which made me very excited for usually they play very skilfully and aggressively, and I am always looking forward to strenuous games. Since this was the first time I played basketball with American, I feel a little bit nerves. Sometimes I could not understand them precisely especially when they used some daily English like “oh my legs are out” which I was totally unfamiliar with, and I did not adapt to their tactics very well . However, I could match with them in terms of speed and strength, so gradually we established partnership which let the game flow more smoothly. And I became more confident and aggressive as well as my team members, after a two-hour long exciting game, we crushed the other team.
Because of my dear host family, I have another unforgettable memory, I really appreciate for
their kindness, thank you very much my host family!
