     Yesterday evening was due to be our celebration of the Winter Solstice. Origionally, we planned to have dinner in the small village out side of the campus. But when all of our classmates were gathered together and arrived at the restraunt there, the menu frightened us back. The price is even higher than that in Xi’an downtown! However the restraunt is not looking very well equiped. The heater didn’t work before it had been turned on for almost 10 minutes.

     After a bitter bargain with the owner, we reached an agreement almost unanimously that we should move back to the campus to have a more  reliable meal and a wiser expenditure. It’s ture that we did have a very exciting party yesterday. Our happiness was not influenced by the worthless trip at all. Instead, we recongnized that we are all more mature than the ones that we were two or three years ago. We know what we want and we will try to seek those aims practically and wisely. The “mean” way we spent money shows that every one in the class is sincerely caring for the interest of the whole.

        As a cardre in our class, I organized a collection of public diaries from each member. On the occasion of yesterday’s oparty I brought it to the dinner and have it passed on among all the classmates. They said it is really a good idea to have a shared diary like that. The content is extremely moving. However, at the beginning of this project nobody seemed to be intersted in it and some didn’t want to participate. Well, last night they all agreed on the value of the collection. And some are calling that the diary should be continued until we graduate. Funny isn’t it?

      I think we all love this class and each member of it. But we are lacking of communication or, say, expression of our true feelings. I name the diary as” piggy bank of memory”, hoping that our college life together will be instored and remembered in this specific way. When we get old on day,  the diary can still remind us of our youth and happiness today.
