Color Theory Class.

A.k.a. the OH-GOD-SAVE-US class. This is our teacher, Wang Xiaoming, telling us how our homework sucks. OH GOD. He's a nice guy, though. This class is just tuff, is all.



Let me expound, using my own homework. "Your fish look too realistic."



"This is passable."



"The tree looks awkward." Okay, I admit it. It does look strange.



"The red could be a little darker."



Hanging at my classmates' dorm after homework check-up.



Pretty ladiiiees.





Have I mentioned that I ended up spending three nights in one week with these two gentlemen just doing homework in our cold, cold classroom? I guess I was really kind of bored.

Anyway, two said gentlemen are Liu Fengyuan... 


... and Wu Chenyang. 


They look sooo tired. XD




The truth is, I wasn't planning to pull all-nighters at all, but the first one got me started. How? I left the classroom too late and realized that the gates were locked. OTL I didn't want to jump them gates... 

I got a flower the following morning, however spontaneously. That was sweet though.



Later...



That night, Liu Fengyuan was playing with calligraphy ink.



Prettyyy.



Day 3.



Ahaha!



We did steal a few winks of sleep every now and then.



5:30 AM -- off for breakfast at Shaxian, before heading back to our dorms to catch some zzz's before morning class! Que Yifeng, Liu Fengyuan -- wondering what the hell I was doing lagging behind XD-- and Wu Chenyang.



Day 4... ?



Aww, such a short lifespan. 8 (



Four weeks of mental torture had come and gone. Grading nao.


My column. I was the first to put up their homework, just cos I wanted to get that over with.







Whuuut. I'm sorryyy.












I did help out a handful of classmates put up their works that day, and ended up spending the whooole day in the classroom.















Chen Wennn.





Zhang Xiaolong, he whose height -- or lack thereof -- gets in the way! XD



Color class, still life version. Gah.





GAH.



Oh yeah.



More tug-of-war!









Our class just kept PWNing all. XO



The talk that I didn't end up attending. Short attention span.



At Wang Laoshi's kewl office, gaping at the awesome homework that was not made by us.









Mm-hmm. 8 )

Lingyin Temple (Pt. 2).

More photos from that trip.





Yuxi and Lai Chenlin.













Ha-ha.

































In the temple museum, where taking photos wasn't allowed...









So that's all I was able to. *___*



A Japanese monk. His statue was erected to symbolize goodwill between the Chinese and the Japanese peoples. But, uhmm... the "Japanese" in "Chinese-Japanese friendship ties" engraved on the plaque is crossed out... XB

Buddha-sama.



Gah, that day was the first day in a long time it didn't rain, so a lot of people went downtown -- it took us three hours to get back to our dorms because of the traffic! I don't regret it, though, if only for the peace of mind visiting temples brings.

Winter Break + Back to School + Lingyin Temple (Pt. 1).

Lunch out with Uncle! This is he and his grandson. 



Outside the restaurant.







That day was also Chloe's birthday. We went KTV-ing that night. Whoo!



Now, back at school! Homewaaark. Aaall. Rejeeecteeed. In the end. =^=;;;





In class...



Ah, photos from the freshmen tug-of-war game, which my class topped, BTW! Ran down the rest of the 36 classes without a hitch, yup yup! ; O These are my classmates doing their thing during the first few rounds.









From when I visited the Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou with three batchmates.



















The stone bed on which Qigong, a Buddhist deity, apparently once slept. It is said that if you run your hand all along the edge of it, you'll have good luck!







A classmate's friend. I never got to know her name! =x=;





Yuxi, a classmate, bending over to get back to the outside. D8







Lai Chenlin, from Cartoon and Animation Class 2. (I'm from Class  1, FYI.)







Till the next *coughfloodishcough* post!
