to fragrant hill





A sunny day today, with my friends of office, together, to the fragrant hill.
Cause long time no outdoor exercises, i was a little exhausted at the begenning, just walking, climbing with complainting the countless stages. luckily, as I walking and walking, then looked back, the past road just sit there and pushed me forward.
got and share a poem from the TV series

WANDER-THIRST

Beyond the East the sunrise, beyong the West the sea,
And East and West the wander-thirst that will not let me be;
It works in me like madness, dear, to bid me say good-bye;
For the seas call and stars call, and oh! the call of the sky.

I know not where the white road runs, nor what the blue hills are,
But a man can have the Sun for a friend, and for his guide a star;
And there's no end of voyaging when once the voice is heard,
For the river calls and the road calls, and oh! the call of a bird!

Yonder the long horizon lies, and there by night and day
The old ships draw to home again, and young ships sail away;
And come I may, but go I must, and, if men ask you why,
You may put the blame on the stars and the sun and the white road and the sky.

-- Gerald Gould (1885-1936)

Vocation in Nanjing

Because of the ORSC meeting, I had a chance to go to Nanjing the third time.

Nanjing, a special city seems quite different to me compared with before. It seems more organized and cooler(the last two times i went there is in mid-summer~). Thanks to Pengpeng's guide, I got to know more sightseeings and culture of this city:) The experiences in the tower of Ji Ming temple can always keep in my mind as I saw the whole NJ city from the top, and felt the city's fantastic. Now when i read some books referent to Nanjing or Jiqing or other names of NJ, i feel more familiar~~

Also give some pictures:

Being busy as meeting staff
a dog seal:) you can easily find a cute dog you like in NJ.
The Thin West Lake.

Kids travelling in the park, always a boy hands with a girl, haha, wonder why?
Qiong Flower, not easily seen in other places.

Da Ming temple

He park and the 'unique corridor'.
A huge family of elites came out from this house.
