Once I visited a Chinese websites and saw these amazing photos, I was shocked by their beauty.
They are all famous females in Chinese history.
They do not only have gorgeous faces, but also pure spirits.
We grow up with their herioc stories.
Western and eastern people have their own criteria to judge one’s beauty~
Do u think they r fabulous? It’s totally up to u~
Finally, the election comes to an end this week.
There is a big piece of news on today’s BBC website:
David Cameron and Nick Clegg pledge ‘united’ coalition
Through this election, it seems that human rights are so important in western countries and British citizens really take voting seriously.
They care for the operation and future of their country. They understand how their voting’s gona to make a difference.
Therefore, it is not surprising to find out a crowd of people in polling stations even at late nights, waiting in a queue.
I remembered when I saw the final debate among candidates via TV, I could feel the passion and enthusiasm these political leaders own. They have different political views, but they share the same great wish that is how to make this country strong and people happy. Meanwhile, the citizen deputies elected challenged these three candidates with various concerns.
A new government thus is established and new policies will be implemented with no doubt.
Hope the new government can work out and bail UK citizens out of this financial crisis.

Heavy showers have been visiting London these days~
And it is so hard to see a sunny day~
Once our shuttle bus driver explained to me the mechanism behind it~
Luckily, it was the first time yesterday that I saw a rainbow in the sky here~
It is so beautiful that I cannot help myself.
There is an old saying in China that u can never point at a rainbow, otherwise something really bad will happen to u~
For me, I always believe rainbow stands for hope.
It is like a light that shows people the direction when u are in the darkness.
It is a ladder to the paradise where your dream starts~
My dream starts here…
After a tiring day of the part-time, Jenny’s boyfriend invited Crystal and me to dinner~
He came all the way from China to visit our beautiful Jenny~
I envied so much of their deep love~
We had a traditional Chinese dinner, which triggered our homesickness~
We talked a lot covering numerous aspects~
It is a pity that I lost the pictures of these delicate dishes~
Show u next time~
I had my first part time job here: to assist in the PhD Career Fair.
It was a great fun~
We all arrived punctually at 10 at the Queen’s Lawn.
We helped to arrange the site before it started.
We welcomed students in then~
We all made friends with each other when working.
We had a great chat together about everything.
…
When I was floating , I had talked with some staff from banks and got a clearer view of my future career path.
…
Though tired, we were so excited with everything going on.
I had gained a lot and it’s not just money, but also friends and an amazing experience.

This is the best movie I have seen in 2010.
Though the plot is not new or unique, I am still deeply moved by the sincere relation between Toothless and Hiccup.
What moves people most is always something that is the purest.
Here I strongly recommend this film to u~
Wish u all love it~
Hiccup is the son of the Viking Chief, Stoick the Vast, on the island of Berk. Hiccup’s village is beset by dragons which raid their stock of sheep. Hiccup works as an apprentice to the blacksmith, Gobber the Belch.
During a raid, Hiccup shoots down a rare dragon called a Night Fury with a bolas cannon that he made, but no one believes him. Attempting to get proof, Hiccup goes to the woods and finds the downed dragon, but can not bring himself to kill it. He frees it and it flies off to a canyon.
Stoick enrolls Hiccup in dragon training with the other village youths and leaves with a search party of Vikings to find the Dragon’s Nest, in order to wipe them out and finish the war. After being told that dragons are vicious, Hiccup returns to the forest. The Night Fury is still trapped in the canyon, and is missing a part of its tail from the previous crash landing, leaving it unable to fly properly. Hiccup decides to befriend the dragon, which he names Toothless, and eventually fashions an artificial tail wing and control harness. While helping Toothless fly again, Hiccup gains an extensive appreciation of dragons. With this knowledge, Hiccup is able to progress in dragon combat training to the amazement of his classmates and the jealousy of Astrid, who becomes strongly suspicious.
Stoick and his army return battered and tired, without having found the nest. Stoick’s spirits are lifted when Gobber and others begin congratulating him on Hiccup’s rise as a formidable warrior. Feeling a chance to bond with his son, Stoick honors Hiccup with a Viking helmet made from half of the breast plate of Hiccup’s late mother.
When Hiccup earns the right to kill a dragon as a graduation rite, he decides to leave Berk with Toothless to avoid performing such an act. Astrid follows him to the hideout and discovers his friendship with the dragon. She tries to run back to the village, but Hiccup and Toothless stop her and Hiccup asks for a chance to explain, and they take her for a ride. In their flight, they get caught in a herd of dragons carrying food and follow them to their nest. There, they discover that the dragons steal food to feed a much larger parasitic dragon that eats them if they do not provide enough food. After they leave, Astrid wants to tell the village of the nest’s location, but Hiccup decides against it in order to protect Toothless. Astrid agrees to keep quiet for the night.
The next day, during Hiccup’s graduation battle, he throws down his weapons and tries to show everyone that dragons are not as bad as they seem. Stoick shouts to stop the battle before Hiccup can continue, and the agitated dragon attacks Hiccup. Toothless hears Hiccup’s screams and rushes to save him. He quickly overpowers the dragon, the Vikings sent to capture him, and finally Stoick. He opens his mouth to kill the tribe leader, but at the last second Hiccup screams “No!” Toothless becomes tame and docile, and is quickly pinned by Vikings. Stoick confronts his son angrily at learning about his son’s friendship with a dragon. Hiccup accidentally tells him that he has been to the nest, and Stoick decides to use Toothless to lead them there, ignoring his son’s desperate warnings about the nest’s true danger.
The Vikings set sail with Toothless leaving Hiccup with Astrid, as he notes that this situation would not have happened if he had killed Toothless in the first place. Hiccup decides to use the dragons that the Vikings use for dragon fighting practice to fly to the nest to help his tribe. Astrid gathers Tuffnut, Ruffnut, Fishlegs and Snotlout to help, and all mount the training dragons and set off after the Vikings.
As the Vikings arrive at the nest, all the dragons flee the island in the resulting attack and the roused giant dragon sets all the boats on fire, including the one on which Toothless is chained. Hiccup and the others arrive, and, while he goes to free Toothless, the others try to distract the giant dragon. As the boat is sinking, Hiccup tries to free the still-chained Toothless but nearly drowns. Stoick saves both his son and Toothless.
After an aerial battle, Hiccup and Toothless kill the giant dragon; Hiccup is knocked out and falls into the explosion; Toothless dives in to save him. Stoick searches the rubble for his son, but only finds Toothless. At first, everyone thinks Hiccup has died in the explosion, but Toothless reveals that he saved Hiccup by wrapping him in his wings.
Hiccup reawakens in his home some days later, to find Toothless by his bedside. As he is getting out of bed, he realizes that his left foot was lost (presumably amputated after being severely injured) and has been replaced with a prosthetic made by Gobber; outside, he sees that the Vikings have invited the dragons to live in the village. Hiccup is welcomed back as a hero and receives a kiss on the lips from Astrid. Hiccup and Astrid ride their dragons through the newly-reformed Berk, as the war between dragon and Viking ends.
I love this museum so much~ And I cannot even think of any suitable word that fits it best~
To start with, I saw it as an ancient British castle when I stood in front of it.
Then, there is a huge dinosaur skeleton at the entrance like a loyal servant to guard the treasures inside.
Upstairs is the place exhibits the evolution of human beings. I learnt a lot from both visual and hearing material. I know the evolution of human body parts and why they are changing over time. Survival is the key word in nature.
My favourite zone is that of human beings. It gives a detailed knowledge of cells, muscles and stuff like that. I had learnt it for three years when I was at high school. But children here can get to know it whenever they want to.
What I love most is the series of pictures which show the process from women pregnancy to childbirth. Among them, the last one illustrates vividly how the baby gets out of mummy’s body. It is really shocking to me because of some kind of cultural difference. You know, in China, when we ask our parents where we came from, most parents choose to say they just picked us up from hospitals or refuse dumps years ago. They will never give us any scientific explanations; however, things are really different here. I appreciate that people are more open minded and things are science-based in western countries.
What’s more, I think children here are really lucky and they should cherish what they own. Here, museums are perfect places to give free education to people regardless of their ages and classes. This shows the greatness of this country.
Still, there are also other zones such as birds and earth.
Everything is fantastic there.
If you are in London, it is the place you definitely wish to visit.
