Here we go again...

 Wednesday July 25^th 2012                                      sunny

    Today was the first day that all kids stay in Earthwatch campsite. In the morning we got up at 7:00 and had breakfast. The breakfast in the canteen was delicious, we had sausages, noodles, breads, cakes, and so on. Everybody had a good meal. After that we just meet in the classroom about 8:15. That was the start on our day work. Dr.Ben, the man, who had Black Framed Glasses on his nose just like me, gave us a lesson that talk about the preparation before we start our research of "climate change at Arctic's edge".

During the lesson, Dr.Ben ask a question that what we should bring with us when we work out side the wetland. And John the tallest guy in our team emphasis that we need water. Phil, a person who always keep calm and had many good idea, put forward that we need bug juice and sunscreen. Then Dr.Ben replenish that we also need camera, gloves and extra shell. After the lesson we just wait in the room for the other kids who just had their flight miss.

What leave a deep impression on me is that the process we made traps to catch the fishes in the wetland. We were divided into four groups. We have Dr.Phil, the man who did the research of frogs, Christian, the boy who came from Boston and loves football, and Evan, quite a nice guy, composed as a group to cut the plastic bottles and binding them up. And we had Emily, my biology teacher at school in china, Willow and Annie are two beautiful Chinese young ladies. They composed into a group that Cutting the plastic rote and fishing line. John, Phil and me just tie up the rope and fish line together. Dr. Phil, Dr. Ben and Nolan, a Boston handsome young man, they played an important part of our work, they just wash the plastic bottles. We worked the whole afternoon and everybody enjoy their works.

    And after dinner, we just have an one hour lesson, listening the lecture about the research of  "climate change at Arctic's edge" I belief it must be an impressive day for all of us.

走在今夜那朦胧的北极日落下

今夜，唯独一片寂静的天，和一条日落留下的彩带

这北极圈七月的风，凉凉的，撩过衣襟

这风，像水一般清新，却没有那么沉重

像爱人的拥抱，却不那么炽热

像雨后初晴的彩虹，却没有那么多彩

这是单调的风

我渴望的北极圈生活来到了

我在黑暗中说道

我喜欢处在看不见彼此脸的黑暗

喜欢那朦朦胧胧的风吹过

也许有些暧昧

也许有些激动

也许有些无奈

寻觅着观星台

无闻窗外夜晚无情的寒风

没有本因为黑夜定义的压抑

只有静谧，宁静

我不会通感

此时的优雅

却不能化作同样优雅的声音

我看得见

却只是幻想地看见

我——听不见真实

听不见那光芒传递的声音

我在这里

在这个奇幻的从未涉足过的北极圈边

看见了什么

舞动着什么

浑然与北极迟来的夜晚相伴如睡眠

波浪平静的河

载得住这饱满的好奇吗

我的好奇

只能化作这喜悦的文字

这琬蔓的舞蹈

凝华成奇迹与美丽

我环望着着北极的夜

留下的是我永远的美好记忆
