These two days I may be the unluckiest guy in our group.
I lost my cell phone, which absolutely is out of nowhere. I seemed to hold it last minute, and this moment I cannot find it! At first I remembered clearly I had put it in my bag, then I was sure I had used the last minute before I arrived GRC. But it was just gone. I'm really upset~
Next day when I attended my lecture, I was told that my card still didn't work. In other words, I may have to get cash out of my card in USA. And it is dollars, which should not be spent at all~
Jesus, what wrong have I done?
I hope I could have some good luck in future:(

Thoughout these days I've been exposed to a beautiful picture of China again and again, that is, in next 20 and 30 years, China will be a powerful country only next to USA. But I think, as long as China cannot solve its numerous social, political, economical and environmental problems, China cannot walk that far.
Besides, even if China has walked that far, so what?
Nowadays, economically, China regards USA as her goal, money oriented, efficiency oriented. China cares too little about history, culture, environment nowadays. A lot of historical legacies were ruined. Our environment is sacrificed. Our culture, our history is abandoned. Look at what happened in Tai Lake, in Xiamen, I cannot be more than worried.
Politically, I simply have nothing to say.
To me, I prefer European kind of development. People care more about equality, democracy, culture, history, human rights~ I know it maybe a farer way to go, but at least we should go the right direction, shouldn't we?

Today I heard that in USA, there was no such rules as prevent juvenile cases from media. In other words, if journalists want, they can expose those teenagers to the public.
I was very surprised to hear that. And even more puzzled about American society. As a society emphasizing so much on children, how could it leave such a loophole, if it is? And as a country so much relying on legal system, how could it leave such an important part to simply people's morality? Isn't it a country believing in the initial evil rather than initial good?
I'm very curious that how Americans keep that balance, the economic driving force and public conscience.

I'm shocked to see so many ice cream bars surrounding me when I'm in Virginia Beach.
I'm shocked to see so huge a burrito in a Mexican restaurant.
I'm shocked to see so large a single slice of pizza in ukrop.
I'm shocked to see so low prices for chocolate, ice cream, coca cola, chips, ect.
I'm shocked to see so high prices for water, fruit, vegetables, ect.
After all these shock
I'm not shocked to see most Americans are overweight.

After more than a week stay in USA, I feel it's not a place for me.
True, America has advanced technology, an awful amount of different food and other stuffs. It's modern, young, energetic, ect~ But to me, it has no culture at all.
I cannot identify myself if I move to USA. Who am I? Here I cannot trace back to my ancestors long long time ago just in daily life. I cannot feel that I belong to somewhere or something. I could only feel that I'm a lonely individual, that's all~
Maybe I'm not familiar with American culture. Maybe it is just not my cup of tea. I like a place with history, where life slow, peaceful, just as it was hundreds of years ago.
Am I out of date?

I've got ill since the day we went to virginia beach~ My throat hurts like burning~ I like eating, but can't~
God, is there anything more cruel than separating me from delicious food???!!!
Even worse, I cannot shop or even ramble too long because I cannot be tired. Once I get tired, my throat takes revenge.
Please, please, please let me better off soon:(
