“One day, you’re 17 and you’re planning for someday. And then quietly, without you ever really noticing, someday is today. And then someday is yesterday. And this is your life.” Brooke Davis.Live your life, enjoy it to the fullest, cherish your family, friends and loved ones, because, today you are here, tomorrow you might not.. be. #agegracefully 

MY SCHOOL LIBRARY.

The school library is one of the tallest building in the school (CMU). I really don't know the exact floors each side of the building has cos it comprises of both the library and administrative block. It is located at the center of the school with the lake surrounding it.. Being at the center, the North, East, West and South gates are all facing each of the 4 sides of the building. It is an interesting place to study, trust me. !!

Let's go to RED BEACH!
Red Beach (红海滩), located in Dawa County, Panjin, Liaoning, China, is famous for its landscape featuring the red plant of Suaeda salsa of the Chenopodiaceae family. The Sueda is one of the few species of grass that can live in highly alkaline soil. Its growth cycle starts in April when it is coloured light red, while the colour of the mature species is deep red . It is based in the biggest wetland and reed marsh in the world. The landscape is composed of shallow seas and tide-lands..
Panjin City, although a relatively small city, is beautiful.. We arrived at Panjin in the morning on 7-8-2015, got our tickets at the train station, and hired a cab driver to drive us around all the way to the red beach. The people were really baffled at the sight of us. (All blacks of course) 2 black indians, and 2 nigerians. Haha.They followed us around, to the eatery, to the bank, etc. It got scarier we had to leave immediately. Lmao. They've never seen such color before? or our statue? Or even.... our beauty?? LOL. It was an amazing trip.

On a warm saturday morning, Calan, Ahmed, Saadah, Yaw and I were all excited.. Excited because we were going to (Feng Huang Shan) "Shan" means Mountain in chinese. We were all set to climb Feng huang shan.. For the first time.. In Dandong city, Liaoning province, PRC... At the mountain gate, I looked around and wondered, how are we going to climb this?? It is sooo big I said... Then I remembered what Barry Finlay said "Every mountain top is within reach if you just keep climbing" and yes we did just that.. Kept climbing and climbing, with sweaty pants and shirts.. At some point, Me, Yaw and saadah got so tired we couldn't keep up.. Ahmed and calan went on of course. "Getting to the top is optional. Getting down is mandatory" Well we used the cable car to get down.. It was such a nice and hectic experience, but trust me.... It was worth it....

The cable cars. You can use it to climb up and come down from the mountain.

As we got closer and closer to our destination, and the vibrational noise from the aeroplane gets even more sickening, I looked out the window and thought "Why is earth so beautiful"? Then "I watched the surrounding landscape with great curiosity, and I wanted to discover the words that could describe all its unspoiled beauty". Amidst my unexplained thoughts, I found these, and I took some pictures.

The flowers of late winter and early spring occupy places in our hearts well out of proportion to their size. Happy Spring.
