Ancient Chinese jade exhibition

On March 15, 2009, I went to Nanjing museum with Cindy at 2 p.m. It is an official museum with many different galleries. Cindy was more interested in “The Year of Ox, 2009” instead of Ancient Chinese Jade Exhibition, so we went to different galleries. The exhibition includes the development of jade from the Neolithic Age to the Zhou Dynasty. In the ancient times, jade is the symbol of nobles, because jade pendants were really expensive. That’s why I always think jade can represent china.
Chinese had been using jade for thousands year. People use jade to make sculpture and decoration. I saw money, necklaces, and other funerary stuff made of jade in the exhibition. The jade seemed to be old, but still meticulous.
The Jade Suite Threaded with Silver gave me a strong impression. That cloth made by thousands of processing pieces of jade. They used threads of silver to connect the jade. They made this kind of clothes is because they saw jade as sacred stuff. They thought that if they wear this kind of cloth after them dead, their body won't decay, likes the Egyptian mummy. Actually, it won't be.
Whenever before or now, jade is always the symbol of China. It represents Chinese history and culture. I am proud of being a person of the country that owned jade

Having meals in western restaurant

I went to1912 to have lunch with Cindy on March 15th. This restaurant is Round Table Steak House. We went there at 12:30, there were already many people eating there. Cindy and I both played a game called” Knight of the round”, so we decided to go to that restaurant.
We sat in large and tall chairs, let me thought of the meals with Knights, they use forks elegantly. It was warm there, I felt really comfortable. Red is the main color of this restaurant, and it has beautiful roof. I heard music as well, but Cindy told me then, that was singing by a man. His voice was amazing, and his French pronunciation was great. That’s a very romantic place. We ordered Fillet steak. It is the most popular and classic one. The steak was tender and tasted nice, with a little blood. Cindy was crazy about cut the steak because the steak was very thick. Then I helped her to cut the steak in small pieces within a very short time. Cesar salad was fresh with sweet sauce and the ham was very delicious. Cindy ordered Fruit salad instead, because she didn’t want to get fat. Our dessert were Fruit Ice-cream with caramel around it. It was icy and nice.
This restaurant was delicious. It’s a real western restaurant. The waiters here were polite and handsome. They wore very grandee suits. There was also some other GCA students from 10-F eating there. This is a nice place for lovers and businessman. That was a really enjoyable lunch!
