Chances

Posted on May 14th, 2008 in Arts & Humanities, Business & Economy, life by jiajun925

When I was in China, I always heard that if you want to be successful, you’d better to go to America. Because it is free and democratic society and there are many chances for you.

I am already here for some months. I still did not find where and what are the chances for me.

Everyday I just heard about gas price going up and Hilliary and Obama won which state.

Italian pottery

When you own a house, Upside Living would be your best friend. They provide all kinds of favorite stuff, such as Italian pottery, weathervanes, wind chimes, painted glassware, Floral Designs, Fire pits, Hose pots, wood sculptures and so on. All of them look so unique and luxury. Especially I like Italian pottery very much.
All the households in my family like pottery. You can say Chinese like pottery. When my grandmother was still alive, she had a lot of old China pottery, such as jars, Cachepots, Dinnerware, cups Kitchen Accessories. Actually all her sets in the kitchen were pottery. In old times, in every house there were some potteries that were inherited from ancestors. They were kinds of family heirloom for all the members in the family. But some children did not know that. Sometime they did not take care of them so well, so after some years you hardly could find some pottery in somebody’s house. Another reason is that in modern society, plastic stuff and resin come into our life so quickly. All of the moms would let the baby hold the resin bowel. It is not only safe for the children but also for the bowls.
I think in some intelligent family, people always are longing for have some classical stuff to decorate the house. In such time, Italian pottery would be your best choice.

solar halo and earthquake

There is a grass ground outside of the apartment. In the afternoon of last Sunday, we were playing badminton on the grass ground. Because it was so bright that I put on my sun glasses. When I shoot up the shuttle, I saw a big solar halo around the sun. I thought something was going to happen.

In the second morning, when we woke up at 6 o’clock, we heard there was a big earthquake in Sichuan China.

And then I searched the internet, I found that, in other places, people also saw solar halo around that day.

I like sightseeing tours very much.
For Chinese, Boston is very famous to us. It is in our history book. You know, Boston is the capital and largest city of Massachusetts, in the eastern part of the state on Boston Bay, an arm of Massachusetts Bay. It was founded in the 17th century, it was a leading center of agitation against England in the 18th century and a stronghold of abolitionist thought in the 19th century. Today it is a major commercial, financial, and educational hub. I am longing to experience the culture there. I have Things to do in Boston this summer.
