I bought many nice glasses and dishes for my life here, to make every thing look nice. and just enjoy every minute while I am here.

trip to coventry

Although my school is locted in coventry ,but warwick university is kind of self community, so I still have to take a bus to get to coventry. I like this place, timid but tasteful.

actually this is the first pic I made myself into the photo after arrived in UK. worthful.

can you see me?

see the naked girl behind me? she is a heroine of coventry, there is a story of why she is naked.

this is traditional indoor market, very similar to cheap road in shanghai, really scared me.

coventry bus station.

coventry university, not so good as warwick,but also quite good!

But actually coventry is not like this, but I just didn't make any normal pic of coventry, maybe next time.just awaiting!

small house along the road.

the church where shakespeare was born and buried

I tried to upload where he is burned but something went wrong with my computer, it sounds really horrify

fisrt day of arriving

I gonna miss Shanghai!

after 12hours flight, before landing.

this might seems normal to you, but this is the first time I saw UK road, car running. I still remember the day when I arrived in UK, no words could explain that. tears around my eyepit.

this pic was taken on the way to WARWICK, by that time I had no idea of my future school and my life, I know UK is beatiful ,but I really missed Shanghai and home at that time 5hours after I arrived in UK- my dreamy contury, it seems no differece from my hometown Shanghai.

my first normal britain traditional breakfast, but I never had that kind of breakfast after, I am too lazy!

anohter wonderful breakfast.

my first buying tomato here, cost 1pounds=11RMB. but I am quite used to the price right now. but first time I do caculate the price all the time.

a welcome speech. in UK normally nobody give speech longer than 1 hour.and if the time is longer they will give us a short break. I like this style, no time waste.
