Was trying to change the design of my blog so that I can put larger size pictures up here, but ended up almost lost my entire blog. And then encountered a huge database error, which really stressed me out. Thank God, everything is finally working fine now, so to avoid additional headaches, I think I just have to stick with this for now.
It’s getting really cold. Every 15 minutes I spent outside shooting pictures, I had to run back into my apartment to get some warm air. But a bright sun in the winter is just irresistible, even though it means it’s colder than snow.
And I realized that, no matter how hard the condition is, if you’re doing something you love, you feel more joy than anything else.
This was taken a week ago. Now the leaves are all gone…

The weather of last weekend and this weekend is totally opposite.
It was gorgeous last weekend, but cold. I was very reluctant to take out my camera with thick scarf and gloves. So I decided to stay home, sit beside the window, enjoying the sunshine and the warmth coming from the heater. It was relaxing. I was flipping through Victoria’s Secret’s new catalog, looking at sweaters, shirts, dresses, pants, costs, boots… There’re so many beautiful things I want to order, but I don’t have enough money. All these beautiful things I can create by myself, but I don’t have enough money. So I started to wonder again: It’s been 4 years after school, I’m no longer 22, but I’m still not doing what I would love to do for the rest of my life. So what’s the plan now?
It’s gloomy this weekend, and it’s been raining since the morning. Like last weekend, I was very reluctant to go anywhere. So again, I stayed home, sat beside my window, listening to the rain drops and watching the yellow leaves on the big trees in front of the house floating in the air and falling on the ground. It was relaxing too, but my mind started wondering again: it’s another week, in fact, it’s almost another year, what should I do now?
I went to the kitchen to make some tea. Looking out of the window, I found that the trees in the backyard which had been covered with full green leaves last weekend, now did not have much leaves left. But they’re still very pretty in the rain.
I like the fence in my backyard very much.
星期一晚上去了China Town 的小肥羊，差点没把肚子给撑破。看来成吉思汗的后代还真厉害，不光会弯弓射大雕，还把店开到大洋彼岸来了。而且生意好得出奇，连星期一晚上也要等位。
这个星期蒙城天气好得反常，十几度的气温，好舒服啊。可惜白天要上班，没法到外面去溜达。而且太阳下午三点多就开始下山了，五点之前天已经是漆黑一片－Winter is already here, no matter what.
昨晚有点无聊，在蒙城华人网上瞎逛，看有没有有趣的帖子，结果给我发现了一个很有看头的摄影帖子。相片很漂亮，帖子极搞笑，竟然在上面徘徊了一个多小时，觉得应该推荐一下：http://sinoquebec.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=562552&page=1&pp=30
很多相片都是在蒙城或近郊拍的，自己竟然不知道原来这个城市是如此的美丽。有几张片片实在喜欢，借来贴贴吧，摄影师说不介意的。^-^
P.S. 什么时候我的摄影水平才能到如此境界啊？！
Another busy week ended. Was really hoping to have a sun-shining weekend, but it turned out to be a rainy one. So staying home and dry, and got some time to get the pictures taken last weekend up here.
It was a gorgeous day. Spent the whole afternoon walking around the neighborhood.

Fall Greetings
This year’s Thanksgiving falls on a Monday, so we have an extra long weekend. My friends and I went to Mont Tremblant, the tallest of the Laurentian range of mountains and a beautiful wilderness 2 hours away from Montreal, hoping to enjoy the gorgeous fall colors.
The weather was perfect for outdoor activities because it’s not too cold, but my desire to see the red maple leaves was not satisfied because of the nice warm weather. So, I realized that like all other beautiful things, real natural beauty is not that easy to capture either.
The maple leaves are not red yet, because the weather is not cold enough, so still have to wait. But I don’t want the weather to get colder. What a dilemma.
Wasn’t satisfied with most of the photos I took on this trip (the sun was hiding most of the time), so had to be a little bit creative to beautify things.
