Hi everyone, Sam again! The last international event that I went to this year was the end-of-year picnic hosted by OU Cousins. This event was, of course, hosted by OU Cousins, of which I am a part, and it took place on Monday, April 27th, from 6-8 pm on OU’s South Oval. At this event, they had some sandwiches, cookies, and a few yard games as well for people to play.

I was actually able to go to this event with my OU cousin, Iris Winters, who is from the UK, and it was a really great final event for us to go to before she has to fly back home in late May. My Roommate (Soph) and I brought our own picnic blankets to sit on, and we also brought our own snacks like strawberries, and a small meat, cheese, and cracker tray. We met my cousin at the South Oval since she decided she just wanted to walk from her apartment at Traditions, and while Soph and I set up our blankets, she went to get a sandwich. The three of us didn’t play any games, but we did sit out on the Soval until it got dark and talked each other’s ears off the whole time about finals and our respective summer plans. We then gathered up our things, and we opted to drive Iris back to her apartment since it was getting dark. On the walk to our car, we decided that before we dropped her off, we should get some blizzards from Dairy Queen.

It was a really great time! I’m glad I got to go to one last event with my OU cousin before she left!
