The Westuren Restaurant----Tacos
















On the twentieth of December, most of our classmates went Tacos on the Zhujiang Road to have dinner with the grade 12 students.
Tacos is Mexico restaurant. I had been there with my mother. This time, I ate dinner with my so many classmates, which were my first time ate dinner with my classmate.
I came to Tacos at 5:30, everybody almost has arrived there. When I walked in to Tacos I saw my friends Ada, Cherry and Helen, I sat with them..Then we took the menu and ordered we ate. I ordered Rice with Baked chicken and Cheese and a cup of Ice Coffee, because there has Taco’s symbol in there, it means this is feature in Tacos.
There were so many students in there, so it looks messy, we did not have enough tableware and even my food sent to another table, so I waited for a long time,
I ate those food and think it taste so-so, but I like this restaurant because I like there environment and we had good memory in there.

Nanjing University ART EXHIBITION





Yesterday, our class went to the Institute of sculpture Art of Nanjing University. We saw lots of sculptures. There are two kinds of art being shown. Most are Chinese famous people another kind is about joy of life. It all by famous artist Wu Weishan, except one sculpture. For this one his teacher Xing Bingming and Wu Weishan worked together. Most artworks are contemporary. It was contemporary.
In the institute of Nanjing, I saw lost of sculptures. It makes my eyes confused; However, I was intested in a sculpture that I first saw. It is a sculpture called "Lao Zi"
Lao Zi was made in about 2002 by WuWeishan, The artist uses mud to make this, and then his assistant based on this to use copper make this. Lao Zi is one of person in Chinese history. He is very famous people. It is about 3m high, but the strange thing that was in middle of the artwork is empty. Inside of that are curved many words that he wrote about Taoism. One of LaoZi's hands paints at the sky, another points at the ground, looks quiet.
Lao Zi makes we feel quiet. He closed his eyes. He closed his eyes one of his hands point at sky, another points at ground. It makes me think about what he wrote about Taoism. The main I idea is theory that man is an integral part of nature First, I saw this artwork, I was thinking about why was the middle of the artwork are empty, what is it inside? I came into the inside. That was carved many Chinese old words. The artwork looks thinking about something, it remind me think about an artwork is Thinker, it made by Rodin. They all think about something but one is Chinese old man, another is western young man.
The artist intention is hope people like Lao Zi erudite inward and full of learning.
I like the artwork "Lao Zi”, becanse I think it is different from other. Other artworks have a person sitting or standing there, and are not special, but this artwork is not commonly. This artwork full of lots of deep ideas and makes people think something about old China. It makes me understand a lot about hoe to do. To be human must kind hearted, that is human's realm and erudite inward and full of learning.
