So! Today, I'm going to post the photos my parents took in Jiuzhaigou, China. It seems pointless, I know, since it wasn't even me who went there. And I have nothing much to say except that the scenery is breathtaking, which, yeah, I have already said thousands of times. Yawn.





Look! A panda! Chewing on bamboo. So cute. SO CUTE!

Although I have no idea why it is burnt such a rich chocolate-brown colour at the ... uh, bottom. Naughty, naughty. Must have stayed in the sun too long. =P


Red ... raccoon?

God, this sucks. I don't even know what that is.





Somewhere amidst the clouds stands a castle made of white stone temple ... At least, that's what I think it is.

Please, don't believe a single thing I say in this entry. Except for my asking you not to believe a single thing I say in this entry.







"When will my reflection show who I am inside?"

Just look at the reflection. Can you imagine how still the water must have been?

Or maybe it had nothing to do with the calmness of the waters. Uhm. Shit. I should shut up now.



Okay. This photo reminds me of Twilight.

Don't get me wrong or anything, I'm not a big fan of Twilight. In fact, I hated the movie. And now everyone is going to hate me for hating the movie. To be honest, I just had too great an expectation for the movie after reading the book and finding it quite interesting. Who knew.

I disliked every part of the movie except for the baseball part and after.

So. There was this scene where Edward too Bella to the top of the tree. And the photo above reminds me of that scene. Hmm.







Magnificent, eh?

I love the last photo. The mountains and puffy clouds, reflected on the smooth surface of the water, which is a lovely combination of green and blue.









Isn't it gorgeous? Crystal-clear turquoise waters.

Now I know the best place to commit suicide if I ever want to do so!

Uh. Okay. Maybe not. Sinking or floating, everyone would be able to see my body! Eeee!

Everything just exuded this pleasant, calm serenity, which ... uhm, soothes the mind. Which in turn explains how I suddenly thought about committing suicide. Which doesn't make sense. Hahaha. I am irritating, ain't I?

I'm a bit puzzled myself. I have no idea why I'm acting this way. Too much caffeine? Maybe. Except that I didn't drink any coffee or anything.





There. My favourite photo of the bunch!

The snow-capped mountains etched against the blue, blue sky ; the leafless twigs swaying in the wind (crap) ; the dark, velvety green conifer trees ; and the frothy waterfall flowing over the huge rocks, like a bridal veil.

God, I really need to learn how to describe things. Especially things like sunsets. Waves crashing against rocks. Etc.

Which reminds me. Descriptive essay - describe a live sporting event which you witnessed. Given to us like 28 light-years ago. And I still haven't done it. Hahaha. Some things never change.





I love the above photos too! So nice. The weather looks awesome! I have a feeling it was sunny - gloriously, pleasantly warm - and yet cool.

"I've got a feeling, whoooo .."







Words fail me at the moment.

What can I say about the above? Hmm. It's all natural. Not man-made or anything. Which is plain ... splendid.

Pools of water, all of almost the same colour, in different shades and hues ...

Apparently this is only the middle part of the whole ... thing. Maybe it's like a whole mountain of water, and the above is just the middle part of the "mountain". My mom said my dad was the only one who managed to reach the top in two hours, and my dad said that the pools there are even more amazing, even more picturesque than the middle ones.

He said the pools are of the colours of a rainbow. Which is pretty hard to believe. I mean! Pink? Purple? Unlikely right. But still. I can just imagine how magnificent it must be. No photos because the camera was with my mom, and it didn't occur to either of them to let my father take the camera with him to the top.

Which is fine, really. I don't think my father knows how to work the camera anyway. AND he probably doesn't know how to find a nice angle. I'm not being mean here, it's the truth!



Last photo!

Uh, see? I told you not to believe anything I said in this post. The "I have nothing much to say" part is a load of bollocks, as you can see. Hahaha.

Right. I have to go to bed now. Going to school early tomorrow. I mean, later today.

Happy Birthday, Car-Men!

Wait for my kiss! Uggh. :P

Goodnight!
