Dream.....






I have a lot of dreams....Travel! Money!Handsome boyfriend! Delicious food! Now I want to talk about my travel dream~ Do u know Provence? A city in south France.... It's famous of Lavender! This kind of flower is my favorite! I wish one day I can visit Provence and I want to live there forever..... There is an old story talk about Lavender.

Long time ago, there is a small town in the south France. There is a beautiful girl live in the town. This girl is looking for her truth love. One day, a handsome gentlman come to this samll town and quickly for in love with the beautiful girl. This man ask the girl to go with him. The beautiful girl was very happy. When she back home, her friends suggest her use lavender to see if he is a good person. (Lavender has magic power, it can make the ponish the bad people.) At the second day, this girl bring some lavender, and though them to the man. At that time, the man change his face. He is the devil, and he run away. The girl was very sad. She still have to wait for her true love. After that, the meaning of lavender becomes 'wait for love'.


Also, I upload some pictures. I love Provence!!!!!!

My favorite holiday

There are a lot of holidays in America. But in China, the traditional holiday is Spring Festival. Spring Fesival is my favorite holiday. ^.^ On that day, families all get together and celebrate the new year! There are some rules to celebrate Spring Festival. The most important food is dumpling.Also people eat fish at that day. Because in Chinese fish means people will get good luck in the new year. And the reson why I like Spring Festival is children can get money from old person. The old person give money to children is a traditional things in China.

On that day night, people will go outside to play fireworks. People play this because of a old story. The story said a long time ago, there is a dangerous animal called 'Nian', this animal will come out to eat people at Spring festival eve. People found out that the fireworks can make 'Nian' afraid and back to the forest. So this become a traditional thing. It is jollification on that day.

Welcome to China to celebrate the new year.

I was in front of a Chinese resturant. The first day I came to Iowa City, I was ate at this resturant. The resturant 's name is 'Szechwan Village'. The food there is really delicious and tradition. This resturant also have Japanese and Thai food. I recommend everyone to try this resturant.


Macy and I was sit in front of the Pentacrast. We were waiting for the Coridge Bus. It was summer at that time. The weather was very nice, the grass were green. And there are so many trees in campus. I like the summer sence here very much.

I was standing on the bridge. This bridge is lead Hancher to Burge. It was autumn at that time. The wind was warm and soft. It was very nice at that time.

Do you know what I was doing? Cut the pumpking. ^_^ It was my first time to cut a pumpking, it was really fun. Halloween is a crazy and happy day. I love Halloween. Hope we can have Halloween in China.
