Shopping in Walmart
When I after work yesterday afternoon, my boyfriend gave me a call. He asked me to wait at the bus station. His friend and he would drive there to pick me up. Firstly we came to a small resturant serving Wuhan specialties, because the three of us are all from Hubei province. After dinner, we headed over to Walmart streightly. We walked around there and selected the daily commodities we need. At around 9:30, we drived back home. When we arrived home, it was 9:50. I felt so tired and took a shower immediately then went to sleep.

When I1
I think some of my friends are confused between "what is proper" and "what is acceptable". With due respect to Morpheus, it is "the Hubei province" and not "Hubei province". Likewise, it is the Ontario province, the New York state, the United States. The definite article cannot be dispense with!!!!

Dear brandon,
1.I'm not confused between "proper" and "acceptable. The points I mentioned (clearly) were the cases that were perfectly "proper" and originally either better than your choices (like drove back) or equally correct (e.g. Hubei specialities versus Hubei cuisine), or that your option was wrong and the original was correct ( like three of us vs the three of us).
2. Yes it's The United States, but never " The New York State". There is a huge difference between the two. We either say the state of New York or New York State. You might have confused this with phrases like The New York State Penal Code, where the article is actually for the penal code, not New York.
