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!
