i’ll try to get a mobile phone as soon as i arrive in the U.S. But i recommend my friends in China to contact through internet:)

we got up too late, so we didn’t have time to play around anymore. we got on the bus and went all the way back to the station. we took a lot of pics though:

It was 7:30 when we got back. I really needed to rest.

quite busy these days. and quite a lot of things to write.

i’ll try to catch up with the regular progress in time.

We confirmed the place and time of Mingyuan Li’s arrival while eating. We decided to slept on the bus while waiting:

The sky in the country was fresh and clear. The cloud on the grassland surely surpassed its peer on the city with imagination and speed(of change and motion). The charm of the moon was impressively magified.

Mingyuan Li got on the bus at 4 a.m. He had been holding his mobile phone all along the way, hoping to chat with us, but the low battery charge restrained him. He was almost in tears when he saw us, especially when he saw the food we collected for him from the dining table.

10 a.m.: we began our exploration on the grassland. The rain bothered us quite a bit, but when i saw the grassland, i thought i was in the world of fairy tales.

we happily ran around:

found something really beautiful:

saw a world we never saw before:

i was fascinated by the sky:

i couldn’t help enjoyed it:

and Mingyuan Li and Ye Li decided to join me:

Let’s take a closer look at what has happened, or what has been like:

anyway, we were all happy:

and we got on the bus, travelled through sun shine and rain fall:

to the horse riding site. i was ready to try:

but the rain again stopped us, and we resorted again to cards:

Finally we got on horse backs, and i was about to ride wild in this beautiful land:

But with no luck, my horse couldn’t make it faster than the speed of my running. “He did his best.” the horse man said to me.

After horse riding, we headed for

the General’s Lake(Jiang Jun Pao Zi):

and then we advanced for the hills:

which reminded me the default wallpaper of windows XP: bliss

with further exploration, i found more:

and more:

we all wanted to express our feelings for such beauty:

and my way was to explore a higher hill, of some distance from our current stand point. i made it to its top:

but we found that the dark clouds were again approaching:

so i have to hurry back:

we escaped to the woods:

where those three performed an amazing act, which they insisted to be kept as top secret:

we kept walking. under the afternoon sunlight:

we found a tree standing alone:

i was again inspired:

so were others. but later i found that some of them were more inspired by the background of the pic above… again we came up with an … idea. i also participated in this top secrecy.

after this final act, we headed back

had our semi-mongolian style super:

had a walk, watched TV, played cards over night, and went to sleep.

after a whole night devoted in FF8, my head was deadly aching. However i still needed to join Dr. Yong Ren outside school gate. We were going to meet the academician Youping Li, and our task was to talk some sense out of our conversation. Half asleep, i said something to make myself more conscious. Totally expected, the conversation was carried to a summit, and then ended in contention. We left the academician’s, and Dr. Ren decided to celeberate this confrontation with a dinner. When i sat in front of the dining table, my mobile phone rang. A few seconds later i knew that i was late for the graduation travel.

i hurried to the gathering point. i was very sorry for the inconvenience i caused. However, a short time later i saw how trivial this incidence was compared to the chaos we were going through. first we headed for the wrong rail station. after we hurried to the right one, we found that one member was still on her way to the station. we decided to leave Mingyuan Li to wait for her outside the station. The majority rushed into the station. in front of the ticket gate, Cong Li volunteered to stay and to wait the two outside. With three left behind, we made it to the train by running with full speed. Personally i’d always believed that at least Mingyuan Li and Cong Li could make it to the train as well. i kept this belief until the train started to move.

Adios, the chain waiting triple.

One hour after our card playing on the train, exciting news arrived. Mingyuan Li managed to find a certain bus station, and was waiting for a certain bus to a certain direction. He was told that the bus might take him somewhere near our destination, but he was uncertain of actually anything. Everyone on the train discussed his situation, and all agreed that it would be a exciting and challenging journey for him. And then we continued to play cards.

At 10:30 p.m, we got off the train. The first thing we did was to find our driver. He took us to a local restaurant.

played games all day…

i’ve been travelling with my classmates from July 4th to July 6th. I’m preparing the pics and will post my travel journal later.

there are some photoes here:

played games all day: Final Fantansy 8

I played this game in high school, but didn’t finish it. Square touched me as a beautiful image of the sensitive part of my heart.

Now when I review it, I don’t feel that touch anymore. Instead, I’m trying to enjoy the story in a more pleasant and comfortable way. And I play way much better. Guides and trainers are no longer necessary:)

Looking forward to play the game of my life.

surveyed info about consigning.

i’ll go to fetch the air ticket for Liao tommorrow.

dinner with classmates. a lot of fun pics were taken. maybe it’s too much fun…
