Lollipop of mediocrity 1

Welcome to the Horticulture Building.



Fragmented, hand-made whole scale view. This is what you see when you look outside from the broad & luxury window of graduate student's office in Horticulture building, 5th floor.


Also luxury is the hall. So many useless items that give people illusion of how restful the life seems to be.


In one corner of the hall there's one thing that firmly caught my eyes: a section of a trunk, which used to be a great tree. Probably a pine? I can't tell. I can stare at its growth rings for long time and trying to read what it used to witness, as if reading the great tree's memory.
(Update: the name of the tree is redwood)

Shocked

Beware the lollipop of mediocrity, lick it once and you'll suck forever.

I was shocked by this sentence. I've decided to see how far can I go.

好了伤疤忘了疼。都4个月过去了罢,偶尔再次看到这句话,那当头棒喝的感觉又回来了。
