We had a X/mas party this afternoon. There were a lot of food. We played Santa games- exchanged gifts. We put the gifts under the tree, and then Santa started to give gifts to people. Everyone needed to guess whom sent him/her the gifts. It was a lot of fun.

It has been 23th weeks. I can feel the baby's move since 3 weeks ago. She moves a lot every time after I have meal. I guess she loves food very much. The first time I felt her move was on the way flying from Seattle to Shanghai which was also my birthday. hahaaa, what a nice coincidence! :)

Wish her happiness

One friend brought us this tiny Disney puzzle. We thought it shouldn't be too difficult to put together. Since each of its unit is so tiny, we had hard time to recognize the images. It took much more time than we expected. We were very exhausted after got it finished..... Next time, I guess won't play any puzzle which has smaller units than this one does.

We know the robot technology is getting matured. We went to Akihabar in Tokyo to buy a robot whose name is KHR-2HV. It is amazingly agile. the KHR-2HV includes many controls, gears and servos, along with improved software and looks. It can even manage back flips and cartwheels if you've got the technical chops to slap this thing together.

You can see the video here @ Youtube: KHR-@HV Robot and KHR2HV Box Lifting, and also report @ Engadget.

Alien brought 2 wigs to the office. People were excited to try it on. It is halloween today. do you have a party tonight?

One Sunday morning, we passed by People Square park, we saw a lot of people gathering together. Then we realized that this was an event of 'match maker'. Young people's parents worry about the marriage of their kids. They are trying to find the boy/girl friends for them. Hope their kids can have a nice marriage with a very 'matched' significant half. They get together on Sunday morning to exchange the information of their family, the profile of their kids such as height,  income, real estate, and occupation; and also their expectation of the profile of the girl/boy. The marriage is not only the kid matter and also the family's. It become extremely important to the parents of the one-child generation.

A good girl friend of mine ask me to bring a pair of pant for a baby from China to US. It seems it is only available in China. This kind of pant is very cute. It has a big hole in the crotch, so it is each for baby to go to bathroom. very special, smart, convenient, and lovely.

Harbin in Winter is a white, dream, cultural, and different city. Ice and cold are part of their life. They utilize the ice and benefit from its charater. One of the suprises to me was they were enjoying to have the ice-lollies even during the Winter. You can see many Russian and their shops on the streets frequently since the city is close to Russia.

Xin Jiang, Xin Jiang, Xin Jiang is one of my dreaming destination for trips. Finally, I visited...

It made me realized that Han ethinic can be a minority in somewhere, like Kashi in Uygur Autonomous Region. It doesn't look like a town of China at all, differnt culture, language, religion, and scencery. Respecting to their originality and preference is what we can do best to the minor nationality in China, like Uyger. It looks like a differnt world, and a peaceful land...

People were passionat with asking more and more singing after he said it was the final song to be delivered. It ended up with around 6 songs after the "final" one. It seems like the ways to bargain in the Xiang Yang market. People feel satisfied when they can get discount or the same price but with more free gifts. It's very fun and interesting~

btw, people's sceaming blew away the hot summer~
