I am now having my Ester holiday, busy preparing for my forthcoming exams!

I won’t update my blogs too often during this period~

Please share your easter experience with me~

Enjoy your holiday~

Last Saturday, I went to Leeds Castle~

This was my first visit to a real castle.

And I believe it would be more beautiful if I went there in late spring when flowers blossom.

Most astonishingly, in China, you could see peacocks only at zoo, but they are just like ordinary pets in the Leeds Castle.

You can see them wandering around all the way~

The style of architecture is quite different from that of Chinese buildings~

You can feel that a lot of prestige when you are inside the castle.

I admire the sophisticated design of the castle~

Accidentally, I found a delicate paper screen with Chinese words on it in one of its dining room.

We Chinese could not possibly understand what it means and how can the residents there know? It puzzles me so much~

You could find many families bring their children to the castle. Kids can be well-nurtured in the place like this with so much history.

There is not so much entertainment in the castle, which is unlikely to happen to the palaces in China. Its surroundings are much like a wild zoo to me. You can feel the quietness instead of luxury there.

Lovely photos will be attached soon~

Something really interesting happens during these days:

Firstly, once I was studying at the fifth floor of the central library, I heard someone singing R&B out loud. The room was so quiet that you could even hear a pin drops. But the singer drew our attention when he suddenly starts to rap in the centre of the fifth floor.

I kind of waited for the guard to come, but after five minutes, the singer finished his song and left and there was still no guard coming~  Astonished!!!!!!!!!!

Secondly, one day I took the lift of the central library going down from the fifth floor to the second first one.  It stopped at the fourth floor and some guy came in. After a sec, he suddenly turned to me:”Is this up or down?” Intuitively I reflected:”Up!” while my index finger was pointing downwards at the same time.

Both of us were stunned and then he laughed “Down, right?”

 I nodded and felt so embarrassed!

Lastly, we had a lecture on Tuesday. A mobile was ringing for almost 2 minutes and no one ever turned it down. We all looked around and ever the professor stopped teaching and we were together finding the source.

Then, a man bent and opened his bag on the floor. He found his phone and switched it off. He was so shy and said:”Sorry, it is new.”

We all ended bursting into laughter.

Life is always full of surprise. And it is never lack of beauty, what we are lack of is always the eyes which can always find the art of life.

I start to learn how to enjoy every normal day we are leading and be happy for the trivial stuff in our life.

Spring finally comes~

The Queen’s Lawn is full of students and they lie on the grass enjoying the beautiful sunshine~

I cannot resist to sit on the grass, though my trousers get wet in the end~

The campus is splendid and everything seems to enjoy spring~

I had my second reading week at the end of February.

Before it started, I had made a detailed plan of the week!

I scheduled to make a review of all the courses, do sports and have some leisure activities~

However, things went completely out of order.

First, I slept quite a lot during the week.

Then, I started to watch an American TV series call Friends. It was so well-known but a little out-of-date. I was determined to finish the series as soon as possible, since it was so classical that it was regret for me to not watch it.

I am moved by the solid friendship among these six friends. Each of them has a strong character:  Phoebe is my favourite character. She is full of humour and always optimistic of her life. She loves singing, which is not so good to be honest. She had a miserable childhood, even worse than Chandler’s. However, she holds a completely different attitude. She can make fun of it and it means she can face it bravely instead of avoiding it. She fancies all her friends and devotes to help them without any complaints.    

Joey is my second favourite.  He is like an older brother and you can totally depend on him anytime.  I am not sure ignorance is fit for him, but he is kind of really ‘stupid’ sometimes.  He cares about food so much that you can find his most frequent line is sandwich.  He is sympathetic and you can see that from the way he treats his duck and chick.  He makes a lot of mistakes in the series and everyone loves him while laughing at him.

The couple Bings warms my heart. They two use their love to overcome so much difficulty in life. Monica feels unloved by her parents and she is critical of everything and tries to be perfect in every possible way. As I have said, Chandler has a really miserable childhood and is afraid of marriage and commitments. However, these two best friends finally get married and lead a happy life ever after.

Ross and Rachel have gone through quite a lot. There is too much about them and I do not know where to start.

Besides, many of my friends go back to China this week. How I envy them!

Sometimes, I dreamed of going back to home at night and missed my parents even more when I woke up~

The reading week is finally over and my life goes back to its original track.

Hopefully, everything will be fine~
