The only joyful chance to do art with my job is to draw my colleagues while we are working together. It is quick, meaningful and satisfying.

You know what I mean, if you do know.
I had a talk with my career coach today.Talked about my Developement Plan.I felt a bit akward afterwards for my emotional reaction.What kinda person she would think of me?I couldn’t believe I did tell her I don’t actually have ambition now in this field.I dont want to let others down to think it was a wrong decision to gimme some brilliant opportunity.
“My dream is to become an artist.”
Saying it, I felt I was falling in darkness.
“But I will take my responsibility without doubt.”
It’s like a scar in my heart that can result in my depression and emotion every time.I feel I’m useless and powerless sometimes.Sometimes I feel my mind is wandering in my own world-a desert,an old town,a quiet book bar with chilled music…,while others are talking business.
I know I will go back to art one day.Because I’ve never really left it behind mind.
One week training in Suzhou finished as the ending of my four weeks’ pre work training and seven weeks for some other colleagues.I had a good time from walking in the streets of Suzhou, visiting the famous Humble Administrator’s Graden and tasting Su Bang Cai(Suzhou flavors food). Didn’t get used to the climate there tho.too much hotness and too little wind for me.Many of my colleagues slept with the air-conditioning on at night.
The following entries are some of my shots during the week.I took the new camera Lumix FX36.Much lighter than my DLSR of course.While the quality is surely lower as a result.
KFC in Guanqian(shopping street)
A scene in the ancient city of Suzhou
In the Humble Administrator’s Garden
I went to the Humble Adiministrator’s Garden with my colleagues on the last day.I really enjoyed the extrodinary sights in it.You could feel the beauty from any position.Furthermore,different views you can appreciate from different angles.Everytime when I turned back on the way, another nice picture came into my eyes as a little surprise.The whole garden is like a beautiful Jiang nan girl to me, subtle, reserved, quiet and charming.Thanks to our late arriving, there were not too many tourists in the garden.That gave us a more quiet enviroment to appreciate the wonderful being of it.
The area of the city we’ve been to also gave me an impression of silence.Maybe it was the ancient city of Suzhou.The street was not wide.We didn’t find many private cars either.The buildings were not high.Instead were old houses with strong local character.
I was attracted.
Here come some pics of my lovely colleagues.
Cong did love the garden,as me.:-) She said she didn’t wanna leave.
Mingjie was posing for someone else.
