Day 168

 31/08/2020 Monday, Sunny

It's bank holiday Monday. We went to the Thetford Forest with Mr Yu and his family as well as Mr Sun and his family. We arrived there at around 12AM and the car park is already full due to reduced capacity during the pandemic. Mr Sun and us parked at the layby opposite to the junction leading to the entrance, while Mr. Yu drove to the town and parked at Tesco.

It's a long walk before the two groups meet and all of us continue to walk in the park. About 17000 steps in total. Really exhaulsted and can't wait to get back to the car and go home.

Day 257

 28/11/2020 Saturday, Cloudy A shocking news from my alma mater Wechat group, one classmate died from illness one day ago. 怀念丫丫  有的同学居然再也见不到了 她，永远的离开了这个世界 从今以后，只能从记忆中搜寻她的片段 五年的青葱岁月 温文尔婉她 或许只有只言片语 青春的印迹却不曾磨灭 再也见不到了吗 就在去年，毕业20周年纪念会上有你 还有筹划中的30周年呢 永别的到来，竟是这般猝不及防 你的躯体就要永久的消失于这世界 我们心中的痛才刚刚开始融化 一个不经意间 涓涓细流化成滔滔洪水 瞬间吞没，泪崩 夜空里，点点星辰 那，有你的归宿 安息吧，我的同学

02/05/2020 Saturday, Sunny After a week of rainy days, it's sunny again. Come across Chen Haowu on Youtube, who was one of the designers of China finantial system reform. Suprise to see he takes such a negative view on the reform result, i.e. the current status of China. An interesting view of his is that the finanace reform is a silent revolution. It changes China from public ownership to private ownership, from planned economy to market economy, from allocation by labour to allocation by capital. The formers are the three pillars of the classical socialism system. On the other hand, he seems to think China need adopt a faith/religon in order to counteract the vicious side (e.g. the unbounded pursuit of profit) of the market economy. And he's seriously considering Christianity. He also introduced the story of a Methodist Priest Samuel Pollard from Cornwall, England. In around 1900s, the priest converted a very large group of residents in Shimenkan, Guizhou province to Ch...
