At a bus station, an old man asked me to notice the bus which he wanted to take. He explained: ”my eyesight is bad. ” “No problem.” I replied to him.

Then we started to wait for the bus. Suddenly, the old man said: ”Look, is the bus coming? Oh, yes, my bus is coming! Thank you!” But at that time, I still couldn’t affirm the number of the bus. I recognized the number when the bus was much nearer.

God, my eyesight is so bad now?Surprised

Dear youngstar.

thanks very much for your comment, my english is so poor that i don't know how to describe it in english.Cry

i think the most beatiful (you see, i only can use "beautiful"Yell) fireworks were the shape of a heart and a pentacle. they illuminated the night and vanished quickly, it made me feel unreal.Tongue out

i think most of girls like fireworks right? maybe most of boys too?

you could see a pic of fireworks from CCTV in my another blog if you like http://chamo41.blogspot.com/

wish you will like it!~Laughing

thanks for your admiration again!!

Hello mo, I have this feeling that you didn't complete your story. What really caught your eyes that night to  make it a beatiful night for you? Nice work, throw more light to it....add more life to it and keep it up. I will like to know more about the beauties of that night. You are a good writer.

Yesterday afternoon, my friends and I went to Wushan Temple Fair. There were all kinds of snacks in the fair, and we hardly miss chances of having delicious snacks.

I bought a bunch of roasted mutton from a merchant who came from Xinjiang. He kindly welcomed us to visit his hometown, and gave me a big one. All of us ate too much food like fried smelly tofu, wonton, cakes, roasted meat and so forth.

Besides food and drink, there were lots of groceries. We also met some merchants who came from India, Nepal, Italy, Pakistan, and so on. They could speak good Chinese.

In the end, we walked into Huichuntang, a famous traditional Chinese herbal medicine store which was set up in 1649. We sat down and had cups of fragrant herbal tea for free. In this store, they provide free tea everyday.
