it is a pretty long time since my last coming here.during the nation's day i went back home and got together with my family members, went to see a lot of my friends.since i came back from my hometown,i went out twice for field work,donghai and lianyungang in jiangsu province and taian in shandong province, each for a short period of time,4 days.but thay are not in my issue area,so i went there just to broaden my horizon and for fun.
during my trip to donghai county,the crystals there gave me an unforgettable impression.donghai is famous for its crystal all over the world. in the crystal supermarket,many colorful crystals on display in the window,many solid color crystals and beatifully carved crystals,they look so wonderful to me!! i bought some crystals there myself,not for adorning, but for fun.
during my trip to tai'an,we went to climb the taishan mountain, not to climb up but to climb down.we went to the zhongtianmen by bus and then we took the cable car to the top of the mountain.after lunch on the top mountain,we climbed down the mountain.when we reached the bottom of the mountain,some of my friends got hurting legs^^.the tianshan stone there also gave me an unforgettable impression. as a geological student,i have seen many kind of rocks.but none of them has the same appearance as taishan stone.they all have a very very long history,and their history can date back to more than 2 billion years ago.time brings a great change to the world and so it does to the rocks.
in a few days time,i am going to the southeast and the south part of China for geological field work.this time,it will take me a longer period time,about a month or so.and i am going to lishui in zhejiang province,pucheng,jian'ou,jianyang and longyan in fujian province,maoming,gaozhou and xinyi in guangdong province,and in the end yulin and qinzhou in guangxi province.there it will be warmer than here in beijing,and the orange is harvesting at this time of year.during these few days that just passed,i have been so busily preparing for this field trip.i am looking forwar to it!! i think i will like it.i think i and my fellow-workers can get along well and we can finish our task there wonderfully.will you pray for me and my fellow-workers,chongzis?
