银川――沙湖――影视城――银川――中卫――通湖草原――沙坡头――中卫――西安

宁夏,是一个很美的名字。在这里第一次坐船在湖里芦苇中穿过,在沙漠里走,骑骆驼,黄河里漂流。

火车上,一路就可以看到这个地区有更加北方的感觉。没有繁华的树木,只有荒芜的平原,时而路上看到的羊群都有着很厚实的皮毛。看着火车边上那个牧人,可以想象这里百姓的生活。下了火车,银川没有大城市的气魄,正是这种简单给人亲切的感觉。阳光很明媚,空气有些干躁。这里一年几乎都没有雨。晚上和白天的温差很大,听说前几天,早上还穿羽绒服。这几天中午又可以穿短袖了。

沙湖
这是一个长有很多芦苇的湖,坐着船从芦苇中经过,迎面吹来微风,很舒服。穿过湖,就是一个沙的世界。有很多有意思的玩的东西,不过都很贵,骑骆驼20,滑沙20,降落伞,热气球100,水上摩托车,骑鸵鸟……看沙雕,在沙子上跑,所有的地方都是沙子,有一点沙漠的感觉了。但是,在沙漠里走路的感觉不是很习惯,很容易就累了。然后很快又渴了。这时候看太阳真是一点也不可爱。沙子被晒得滚烫,光着脚丫踩时间长了有点受不了。

西北影视城
很有意思的地方。“来时是游客,去时是明星”。有很多的电影都是在这里拍的,比较有名的《大话西游》《红高梁》……很多啦,我都不记清了。才深刻的发现电影真是一门艺术啊。就只是那些破地方,简陋的房子,布局,加上画面的处理,居然能拍出那么多的好电影。还要很多的道具依然在那里摆着,可以顺便拿着玩。再来套古装的衣服,就更有味道了。哈哈。。。最后,大家都舍不得走了,还没玩够,司机就催我们该回银川了。

晚上,逛了逛市中心。这里的水果超便宜,非常甜的枣0.8元/斤,非常漂亮的苹果1.2元/斤,非常好吃的绿葡萄1.3元/斤,西瓜0.25元/斤。

通湖草原
这里是属于腾格里沙漠的边缘,有一个湖刚好在沙漠的边上,于是有了一小片草原,也有了人居住。去的路上,需要穿过沙漠中的一条公路,两旁都是一望无边的沙漠。很有感觉。也有点吓人。因为如果迷路在里面,周围都是一样的沙丘,肯定分不清东南西北。又没有水,真不敢想象。跟拍电视似的,到了蒙古,要献哈达、要喝酒、听他们唱蒙古歌。然后就是玩啦。沙漠冲浪很有意思,一辆超大的卡车在沙漠里乱开。有失重的感觉,好像卡车都要向前翻了。到了四周都是沙漠的地方,有几个滑沙板,然后自己拖着滑沙板到一个沙丘顶上,坐在板子上滑下来。那个板子可不算轻,还要拖上山,真是累啊。冲下来的时候,倒是很爽。然后,骑骆驼、骑马,刚走近它们的时候,真是臭啊。骑了一会就感觉不到了。骑在骆驼上很颠,一晃一晃的。骆驼很温顺,属于任劳任怨型,被人牵着鼻子,让它就怎么走它就怎么走。都不知道这里的马怎么会事,怎么踢都不跑,就知道慢慢悠悠的溜达。气都气死我了。然后去蒙古包里面,坐一坐,吃点东西。

沙坡头
没有进去。因为时间的关系,加上大家都很累了。只在外面黄河漂流了一下。最没意思,又最贵的就是漂流了。然后,去火车站准备回西安。治理沙漠真的是不容易的事情。回来的时候,头发里,衣服里,鞋子里,耳朵里都是沙子。第一次见沙漠的新鲜,兴奋很难忘,留下美好的回忆。但相比之下,我想我还是更加喜欢南方的秀丽。

今天终于发现了表哥升职那么快的秘密了。先是店员,2个月后是店长,5个月后成为了业务经理,直到现在。一方面,表哥是优秀的。另一方面,就是每个人所期待的机会。因为当时那个公司刚到重庆来发展,正处于发展阶段,也正是急切需要选拔人才的时候。这给了我找工作一点提示。如果是新部门,新行业,肯定有更多的挑战和学习机会,自然也有很多晋升的机会。

真的应了一句话。【传9:11】 我又转念,见日光之下,快跑的未必能赢,力战的未必得胜,智慧的未必得粮食,明哲的未必得资财,灵巧的未必得喜悦;所临到众人的,是在乎当时的机会。

我们去参加了一个韩国弟兄姐妹的联谊会,认识了一些韩国朋友。第一次,这么近距离的了解韩国文化。哇,他们很多的汉字都是中国的,而且发音都和中文有很相似的地方。当汉字写下来的时候,都能够认识。感觉像是中国的方言。实在是太像了。他们的英语,哦,很重的口音。还是有少数的几个人讲得还可以。有几个人的英语,我实在是很难听懂。所以,还好不管每个人的英语是什么水平,大家都敢于说英语表达自己。可能是因为大家水平都差不多差吧。:)

韩国人文化特点:
1.第一次见面,他们就问你的年龄,为的是用什么方式的语言来和你谈话。他们特别尊敬长辈,有特别的敬语。是一个很有礼貌的民族。
2.当玩起来的时候,就不是那么分辈分了。大家都一样。在我们一组的有一个41岁的大叔,给我的感觉很平和,一点也没有家长的架子。和我们一起做游戏,嗯,很容易打成一片
3.他们之间不是那么讲究。海霞吃剩下的一口煎饼,那个男孩一口就放进嘴里嚼着吃了。他们很礼貌的不断问你是否要喝水,然后就把他的水杯递给你。
4.韩国有1/4都是基督徒。所以那里基本上都听过福音,或者去过教堂。

发现:学英语蛮重要的,会了英语,以后可以和任何一个国家的人交流,因为全世界人民都在学习英语。然后,我的英语经过一年的学习,确实有所提高。嘿嘿。。。

A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, rocks about 2" in diameter. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.

He then asked once more if the jar was full. This time the students were sure and they responded with a unanimous "Yes!" The professor then produced two cans of beer from under the table and proceeded to pour their entire contents into the jar -- effectively filling the empty spaces between the sand. The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The rocks are the important things - your family, your partner, your health, your children; things that, if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, your car."

The sand represented everything else. The small stuff. "If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued "there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you."

"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party and fix the disposal."

"Take care of the rocks first -the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand." One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the beer represented.

The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of beers."

I cannot believe it. Nearly at the same time, two of my papers are going to be published. I got the advice notes yesterday and today. One is Modern Radar (radio detecting and ranging), a core magazine in China, which I talked about one month ago. But not until today I got the advice note. The other is 2006 CIE (Chinese Institute of Electronics) International Conference on Radar, which is written in English. Marc, I’d appreciate your help for that paper again. :) maybe I need your help again. :)

These remind the verse and my prayer about two weeks ago. Numbers 6:24 Say to them, may the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile upon you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you His favor and give you His peace. The book said a blessing is not a blessing until it is declared! Speak that blessing in the name of Jesus! Declare you are blessed with God’s supernatural wisdom and receive clear direction for your life. Declare today that you are blessed with creativity, courage, talent and abundance. You are blessed with a strong will, self-control and self-discipline. You are blessed with a great family, good friends, good health, faith, favor and fulfillment. You are blessed with success, supernatural strength, promotion and divine protection. You are blessed with a compassionate heart and positive outlook on life. Declare that everything you put your hand to is going to prosper and succeed! Declare it today and every day! (Deuteronomy 28:1-14) it also reminds me the book . From then I’ve prayed everyday. Now I get parts of them. :)

God speaks blessing over your life and mine in His Word. :) Declare it today!

The Dragon Boat Festival, also called DuanWu Festival, is one of the most important traditional Chinese festivals. People eat Zongzi and race dragon boats in memory of an ancient patriot, QuYuan who lived during the Warring States Period (475~221BC).

Dragon Boat Festival falls on Wednesday, the 5th day of 5th lunar month, and along with paddling frantically across local lake, eating Zongzi is the big tradition of the day. Zongzi are a glutinous rice dumpling wrapped with green bamboo or reed leaves into the shape of a pyramid, and filled with red bean paste.

Last Sunday I just took an exam named TOEIC (test of English international communication) which I have prepared since a month ago. Also, I had a tutorial class where I learned a lot. Our English teacher who came from US is a business woman in consulting in Xi’an. She taught us how to write a resume, have an interview, what success is and how to accomplish it. Her definition of success is that truth is the foundation of all human virtues which is pretty special. Which impress me most is “small” talks create closeness, such as holidays, weather, travel, sports, news, shopping, movie, singers and music. Moreover, we had some games like drills, limited wishing, and mind map. A great communicator should be structure, visual, auditory, hands on, get centered, think creativity, receptive and inquire skillfully.

In that afternoon I also had a written examination for applying IBM summer internship. Hmm, it was a terrible exam. The contents which were all math calculations were not difficulty and written in English is no problem for me. But the problem is I never took any math calculation in English that day before. So you can imagine the result. : ( maybe I should do some practice like these.

我晕。周日又有好几个事情撞车了:托业考试,IBM的笔试,一个学习的挑战。我都非常想去。要是我会分身术就好了。常常觉得时间总是不够用。

每次周末都有好多事情要做,通常,周末是我最忙的时间,日程都是排得满满的。
23rd-May-2006 08:50 pm - 黄巢山之行
girl
19号晚上出发,本来预计是6点出发,结果近7点了才出发,到了山下的时候,天已经快黑了。然后,包车又只到山下,因为包车是公共汽车,爬不上那个山。还有30里的山路在前面等着我们。结果大家都坐“BengBeng”上山。感觉肯定很有趣的,40个人,好几辆这样的车,特别的破,然后很慢的爬上山,甚至有一辆是走的S型。中间还有一辆恰巧在回民的墓园那里坏了,在两旁都是墓碑的公路中走,那几个女生都吓坏了。然后,到了“BengBeng”的终点站,还有3、4里的路需要走着去到公园。很少人有这样的经历——走夜路。晚上的风很大,然后,周围都很安静,只听见风吹树枝摇摆的声音加上我们浩浩荡荡的大队人马的声音。大家都很兴奋,没有一点害怕。据说,这条路不是很安全的,还好,大家都安全到达了。

因为没有集合的地方,加上到了都已经9点半以后了。什么东西都拿得乱七八糟的,一会肉又找不到了,一会菜又不知道放哪里了。我们几个负责的人都很紧张,害怕因为我们没有安排好,大家会责怪。晚上,大家简单的烤了一下肉,就已经比较晚了。我只吃了一片肉和半片土豆。嗯,味道还是非常不错的。刚开始,又该结束了。到了该休息的时候,发现几乎每个房间里都有各种各样的虫子在墙上趴着。低一点的,就又用鞋底拍死它,高的也没有办法啦。我早上起床的时候,才发现有一只蛾子在我的被窝里。晕~

下午爬山。我们谁也没有爬过这山,但是我们却走的是最好的路线。整个山是一个峡谷,我们从一边绕到另一边。刚开始是从山脚出发的,到山腰后一直都沿着一个很窄的人工水渠横行在山腰上,如果不是很清楚的看见对面的山,就像在别的地方走什么路似的。还可以大声的喊,有很响亮的回音,感觉就像只有我们这一群人,特别的安静。走着走着,不知不觉离我们出发的地方很远了,怎么就到了山谷的小溪边,然后我们沿着小溪继续往前走了很久,路上还碰到山里传说中的野猪一只。不过,遗憾,这只小山猪已经命归黄泉啦。才发现原来野猪是有毛的啊,是那种灰色黑色的有着整齐的花纹。然后我们找了一个比较开阔的地方休息准备找回去的路,我们绕到当时在对面看到的另外一边山上。真的是路上惊奇不断。又上到山顶时,发现一种好美的花。唔,很难用语言描述,还是看照片吧。蛮特别的。再往上爬,绕到另外一座山上,发现是一大片绿色的小麦地,再走一段又有一大片金黄色的大麦地。当我们沿着山路走,以为可以就这样再沿着山腰走回家。结果没想到前面没有路了,才发现途中遇到的那只野猫跟着我们走了好久。到现在还在“喵喵”的叫。没有路,在梁的分析之后,我们选择了沿着没有路的路往下走。(梁总是能给我们很多的帮助,特别是这样的时候。大家也特别的信任他。)又到了小溪边,大家比较安心了,至少我们没有爬错山,可以沿着小溪回家。大家都在小溪边跳跃着往前走得很快,有点地方有很高的石头没有路要往下跳的时候,男生总是会留在那里等我们,帮助我们。所以,大家像是一家人,路上没有一个人会落下。途中,我们会定时的报数,保证每一个人都在。爬山一共有31个人,可不算少,每隔一段距离我们都会停下来等大家一起走。

感觉这次爬山久像是“信心之旅”一样。有高山,有低谷,有平坦,有崎岖,没有路时的担心,害怕回不去,害怕走丢。但是一直我们都在一起彼此鼓励,彼此帮助。

最大的感触是:我们有最好的天气-阴天,不晒,不热,偶尔还有徐徐微风。去之前,天气就预报说是有雨,结果到晚饭时大家都回到住的地方了才开始下雨。最好的路线。最好的DXJM。

晚上,回来有电影《戴德生传》。真是一个不平凡的人。离乡背景的来到中国,为中国摆上了他的妻子和孩子,他的一切。他最有名的一句话“纵使我有千万家产,绝不留下一分不给中国;纵使我有千万条性命,绝不留下一条不给中国。”他的生命实在鼓励很多人。有太多可以写的地方,还是写他的书比较完整。最近人民出版社出版了一本书,忘记叫什么了,就是写他的生平的。有机会一定要看看。

我想从另外的侧面来再总结一下这次活动。因为需要和当地的公园联系食宿等方面的问题。籍这个机会也让我看这个社会更清楚了一些。嗯,这个社会各样的关系比我们想象的要复杂。但是,导致复杂的原因倒是很简单的——每个人的利益关系,就是钱。这个公园有它自己的利益均衡分配方式,每个部分都有相应的人提成。我们跳过一些提成,就把这里很多一直的默认规定打破了,引起他们内部的一些冲突。然后,就是本来说好的一些事情总是不断的变化。然后又需要再和公园的负责人谈判,甚至有的时候他们出尔反尔。真是极大的挑战我们的温柔、忍耐。特别是快离开时,因为包车的事情,他们的负责人之一发了好大的脾气,气得把嘴里的饭都喷出来了。看他那样激动,我心里还有点暗自觉得有点好笑。大家不受别人的情绪影响,还是很好的。
