long time no post

Nearly one month I have not written anything for my beloved blog! I spend most of this month preparing and enjoying FACES.

What I enjoy most is talking with the delegates and organizers. They are the most passionate, most thoughtful young people I have ever seen.

Lots of funny things happens too. I played Taiji in the rock music party, and I have to move three times faster than usual. To fufill the requirements of a game, Scavenger Hunt, I entered the lady's restroom with other four group members --three of us will definitely not be able enter again--to get a photo of ourselves in mirror. And An old-book store owner roared at me because I am going to take photos in her store. And on the farewell dinner, I gave the worst speech I can ever give, but still someone says he enjoys it and he is not kidding.

Stanford students seems to be busy with their extracurriculum activities all the time. They will be regarded as "Bu Wu Zheng Ye" if they ever do this in Nanda. Two education systems and the corresponding evaluation system are different. Perhaps it is hard to make a fair judgement on them if I am still inside the system.

When an american delegates talks about the ordinary postal mail, he says:"it is so 20th century". I enjoy this accurate judgement particularly for its odd wording. I copy it and say "it's so FACES that people are nice, that organizers keep warning us to be hurry because we are behind the schedule, that there are so few people majoring science and engineering, and that it is not so sad to say goodbye because the planned re-union on November in Beijing."
