Let's Talk#
Zhou Zhuo, the study abroad student.
World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria?
Or in Hearthstone?
Zhou Zhuo is a Pandaren, quite impressive.
However, in both World of Warcraft and Hearthstone, he is also studying abroad, needing to learn from the Western world. Indeed, the Western world has been ahead for the past few hundred years. China is also striving to catch up. China aims for a great rejuvenation. The U.S. wants to make it great again; many countries have similar slogans. First, they were already strong, and they want to continue being strong. It seems like a family heirloom, huh~
School Research Trip#
The school where the two kids attend organized a research trip to the Polar Ocean World on Friday.
Voluntary sign-up. The price is 218 per person.
Each class has about 10 kids not going.
I estimate I've been to the Polar Ocean World about ten times.
A few years ago, the price increased from the initial 60 to the current 200-400; I haven't checked, but it's gone up several times.
A few years ago, I saw the Feizhu annual card, which costs about 200-400 per person; I didn't check the order, just got an annual card for the whole family of four.
We've been five or six times, during May Day and National Day, whenever we have time, but I still don't want to go; I just feel like since I've paid, I might as well go.
The subway is now available, making it much more convenient; once there, I still have to take 1-2 bus stops, though I can also walk about a kilometer to get there.
The lower prices before were due to the varying inclusions of different exhibits, such as no sea lion shows, no 56789d movies? I forgot how many d it was. They provided 3D dual-color glasses, the seats would shake, and there would be water spray. Everything else was the same, just the main exhibit. Beluga whale love. Dolphin and beluga performances; it seems that the pseudo-orca or orca is a better deal to see, only available in Shanghai. I've watched videos of orcas in San Diego. I've seen orca pods hunting sea lions or seals. Water jets catching birds. As smart as humans. If there were no humans, other creatures would probably evolve like humans. They would just become enlightened.
This time, the kids took a bus arranged by the school, bringing their own motion sickness medicine and vomit bags.
If they don't go, these considerations are out the window. For long-distance travel, we generally consider subways, trains, and planes; my wife thinks safety comes first. We've never considered buses. Indeed, subways and trains at least won't cause motion sickness. It's also convenient to use the restroom, although some buses now have restrooms too.
The money not spent will be found a way to be spent by my wife; today, we went to the amusement park, 50 per person, initially 99 per person, probably because the amusement park is about to close. They are trying to recoup funds. Prices are getting lower and lower. All the electric rides have been closed. I brought my drift board, going back and forth, watching them pay to play. It lasted about 3-4 hours. I also felt quite tired. Haha.
