Traveling to earthquake damaged town –part2 People have nothing to eat in one week after the earthquake happened because all roads were ruined by the earthquake. There was a lot of helicopter on the sky trying to help people but they could not find a place to land and one helicopter crashed when trying to land close a mountain. People were searching potato under the ground which farmers planted while the government army arrived one week later. The guider told me there are two dogs live in the high school and don’t leave because their host is under the building. The two dogs can find some bones of human sometimes because there are still more than 20 persons buried under the crashed school. She cried when she told me her nephew is one of these buried under this school. After traveled this town, I know human is so small in front of disaster like earthquake. We should live a wonderful life, because we have a chance to live while so many people did not.

Traveling to earthquake damaged town -part1 This weekend I had a travel close to Chengdu city. I traveled a town damaged by a serious earthquake 5 years ago. This town was surrounded by a lot of mountains. It is about 1 and a half hour to arrive there by bus. I watched the pictures before earthquake and pictures after the earthquake. It's so sad almost all buildings were damaged. The small town is very new now because all of the houses were built after the earthquake. Most of the damaged buildings were removed, but there is one place keep in the same state after the earthquake happened. It is the high school in that town. So the town is quite new and beautiful except this high school. This high school is kept this state to remember the earthquake. A lot of persons could not help to cry after the local guider introduced the high school and the information of this town during the earthquake. There are a lot of sad stories. This town had about 9000 persons living there before the earthquake, but about 6000 was killed in that earthquake. The high school I traveled was the best place acted in that earthquake. A lot of people escaped in this high school. Another grade school was not so lucky, most students and teachers was killed. When the government wanted to choose a place keep the state to remember the earthquake, people did not choose to keep the grade school because too many persons died and made people so sad. That's why the not serious high school was chosen to remain the state. There was also a lot of sadness in the high school though it was the most not serious damaged place during the earthquake. There was 8 teachers and 20 students killed and they are still under the crashed building now. It was the class time when the earthquake happened, all students was in classroom. The 4 floors classroom building crashed into 2 floors. , The building fell down after most students escaped from classroom. There were more than 100 students and teachers running in the stair room while the building fell down. They were so lucky the whole building crashed except the stair room. There was one village in that town was not so lucky, the whole village was buried about 50 meters under a mountain.

Sad Expression There was an earthquake in Sichuan province in China. People are sad. Sichuan is the hometown of Panda. A lot of pandas escaped to the trees and dare not to go down to the ground. Can you see the sad expression on the face of this Panda?

Scary earthquake this morning in China There was an earthquake clothes to Chengdu in Schuan province in China 13 hours ago. It was very strong, 7.0. It was scary. A lot of people ran out of the appartment with bedgown. The earthquake stoped when I ran to the door of the appartment. Then I hesitated if I should continue escaping or stop? But I still ran down to the ground when I saw a lot of person running down to the ground. I was so stupid that I spent 3 seconds looking for my shoes when the building was shaking. Thank god I am ok. As reported, 156 persons died till now. And more than 5000 persons got injured. Bless for all those unlucky people.

Hiking It was a sunny day yesterday. I went out hiking to a mountain named Qingcheng Mountain close to Chengdu. Qingcheng Mountain is the cradleland of Taoism. There are a lot of temples in those mountains. The mountain is very tall. There are two ways going to the top of the mountain. The first one is to take a cable car,the second one is going to the top of the mountain by foot. I choosed the foot by foot way. It took me more than two hours to arrive the top of the mountain. I was too tired when I finally arrive the top of the mountain. But I think it was worthful to take the foot by foot way because the view on the road was so good. After 2 minutes resting,I started enjoying the view of the mountain. It was so beautiful looking around from the top of the mountain. I took a cable car when I went down to the foot of the mountain. There were an interesting service on the mountain. Some people provide litters to carry visitors to make a living. I saw some people experienced the litter service but I dare not to. I think it too dangerous to sit on a litter on the mountain road. 我不知道爬山应该用哪个动词，请本土的朋友帮我改正，谢谢！

spring It's spring now. There are a lot of trees outside my window. They are turning green every week. I like those green leaves.

China Is Changing--2 still yesterday I've wrote about the life my parents experienced 30 years ago last time. I would like to write the life when I was young. It's about 20 years ago. Not like my parents,I don't have a memory of starvation. China already ended the communal way of life after a reformation. As I wroted last time, all people from a village had to share a piece of land at the same time. This way of life ended up when I was born. The piece of land belonged to the village was divided to smaller pieces and every family has one piece for at least 20 years. So every family worked very hard on their own land because they could have all the production. That's why I never experience starvation. I am the first kid of my family. I had a funny childhood, but I only have one younger brother because China started the one child policy when my parents got married. Acually ,my younger brother was born illegally. I heared a lot of funny stories about how my parents escaped from the planned parenthood group to have my younger brother. My mother swam to the other side of the river behind our house while my father fighting with the law execute group one day during the pregancy of my younger brother. My mother and I lived in a relative's home for 3 months untill my younger brother was born. We had funny childhood though we don't have a lot of money. My parents worked very hard and saved every penny so I and my younger brother could go to school to have education.The most interesting thing for me and my younger brother was fishing and catching lobster and catching frog. We went to river to do these things everyday after school. We felt happy when we caught even one small fish like 1 inch. We caught frog and made it to frog meat tied to a line then threw it into a river as bait in order to fishing and catching lobster. Lobsters was so stupid. They tackled the frog meat very tightly and ate the frog meat. We draw the line tied to the frog meat so the lobster came. We could caught a lot of lobsters to make a delicious dinner. I'm still very happy when I remember this experience. I don't know if you can understand what I felt happy. you can at least correct my mistakes in this article.Thanks！

China Is Changing--1, Yesterday Yesterday People in china were very poor in my parents's generation. I did not experience that ages, but I heard a lot of stories from my parents and some other old friend. I was born and grown up in a small village. So I heard a lot of stories about the life in the village. People did not have their own land before the year of 1980. Every village has a piece of land. All people from the village have the piece of land at the same time.There are about 20 families belong to a small village. All people went out to work at the land and went home on the sunset. People worked everyday but every person could obtain little food and money at the end of the year. That little food is even not enough for a person. Further more, people could not buy enough commodity even if they had enough money because they needed tickets to buy any kind of commodity. There were a lot kind of tickets,like ticket for rice, pork, bean oil, cloth and so on. You need a ticket if you want to buy anything. That's because the new China were lack of everything. People were too poor to buy any staff. My parents told me they were hunger everyday. They could not eat meat until the New Year Day which means they could only have one day eating meat every year. I think people did not have momentum to work hard on a piece of communal land is the reason why they did not create more food and other commodity. This is the life in China 30 years ago. But life had changed a lot during the later 30 years. It's so later now. I have to sleep again. I would like to write about what happened later in China.Hope this can help people from all over the world to know China.
