1. This is the first and the best dinner I have ever had since coming to the States. Thanks to Liu chen, who organized this, so that we USTCers had a wonderful time. Since then, many people at that dinner graduated. I miss all of you and hope you are doing well!

2. 09/2004@newport Wei Luo (middle) used to take us for shopping, movies, skating, and....

5. 2004@staple center I am a NBA fan! We will host basketball games and NBA nights! Of course, go to staple center again and support Lakers!

6. 12/2004@Berkeley campus ("NL" is for Nobel prize winner.) I was shocking by this since I thought there should not be special treatment for anyone in US. Then I realized that how the Americans respect the knowledge. Hopefully, one day it will happen in China.

7. 2005@ on the way for the flowers Zhiwei (3 rd from left) is like my elder brother. I met him at the first day I arrived America. He helped and taught me a lot. He is a humble and respectable man.

13. summer 2006 [email_address] During the show, Shamu almost hit the guy underwater. Imagining that they do this everyday, how dangerous it is! I can only say that trust makes the miracle.

14. 06/2006 Adam's graduation Someone says graduation is not the end, but the begining of the journey. Hopefully we shall have more chances to know each other and let us be one.

15. 08/2006 @Mount Whitney It was a wonderful experience to challenge the highest US mountain. However, my knee got hurt... I should have been more careful and listened to others...
