Aldolescence pictures 12 --- 21 years old

This was the last photo I have taken with my classmates in China. I have been close to most of the girls in the class and still keep in touch with some of them.

After living in Australia for six years, this was my first visit back to my home country  China. It was also the biggest family reunion in the past ten years with all my maternal family members but my uncle gathering together in Shanghai.

China has  changed dramatically in those times, sky scrapers were erected, high ways were built and a large amount of shopping complexes were  constructed....  However, at the same time, you could still visit the beautiful old gardens and enjoy a lovely picnic or a  quite read .
