Arrival of cool days

Hot 6631 views. 2015-11-1 10:03 | colleagues, building, distance, company, getting

This week is somehow getting cold. Now I finally put on my coat, and wear suit in the office. Yesterday, the company organized us to walk from the old work place to the new building where we moved in a couple of days ago.

The distance is 8 kilometers, not that so long for me, I got up early and did enjoy the walk with colleagues on the way. When we arrived the destination, everybody was gifted a box of one pair of chopsticks and a spoon. They are all made of stainless steel. Huh, it seems interesting. The reason for giving out such a box for everybody, probably it is to do with the tradiation of moving another new place that usually people will hold a ceremony by gathering together to have a party dinning and drinking. That may be the reason, we can go home and try to use them as the symbol of happiness of new beginning.

The rain is now still going, I can see it through the window. It is the sign of the tradition scenery here, ripples of waves spreading over surface of lakes and streams. The wet roads and drizzles add the mestry and romance on local spots. I can spend the afternoon to walk around the west lake again to see another version of its beauty. 

Have a good sunday.

Your company is warm and caring by organizing the walk from the old office site to the new one. This shows they don't forget their past. Employers like them can be trusted. I also occasionally go back to my previous work places for reminiscence and see previous colleagues. Everybody is happy and I invite them for a hearty lunch nearby.

Oh, the weather department announced that temperatures would drop 8 to 10 degrees today. I don't have any suitable winter clothes and I hate to buy clothes because they usually don't have my sizes because I am tall and quite slim. The clothes are usually too short and too large for me. Must buy some clothes this week otherwise I would probably freeze. Last winter I used the heater and the electricity cost was sky high (embarrassed to mention the high amount).

Envy you for being able to walk the famous west lake whenever you want to. Nothing is better than to enjoy such natural and simple scenery. So pleasant and refreshing to the eyes and mind.

Last weekend , my husband and I went to the People's Park to enjoy the chrysanthemum show . There were many kinds of chrysamthemums .A lot of familiies went there . When travelling , I never like taking any photos .Instead , I want to enjoy the scenes with my own eyes . However, many other people ,including my husband and my close friends , like taking photos of beautiful views . I understand they want to treasure the beautiful moments . But I want to get closer to nature . What about you ? Later , my husband and I took a photo of ourselves and sent it to my faraway son on Wechat .  A wonderful work !

Yes, sometimes, I just go for the nature, do not take any pics. Enjoy the nature without any disturbance, and have the beautiful scenery impressed into mind.
Unless there are some good impressive views, then I might take few of them.
