Mattias and Stina invited us to their place to have lunch with them, cuz they are moving to the north soon, Mattias got a job in Karlstad(if my memory serves me well) Airport. They cooked another traditional Swedish food for us called Falukorv which is, Mattias told me, made of grated mixture of beef and pork, they prepared the falukorv with the onions, tomatoes, apples and cheese and put the plate into the oven for 25 minutes. It's very good, Lin and I like it very much and we learned another Swedish cuisine. After the lunch, Mattias also helped me to order several apartment in Lulea, he told me i have to wait for the queue, so it's better to apply in advance. When we left, we hugged each other at the bus stop, we felt so warm, we are now far from home and they gave us so much help, we dont know when we will meet again, but i believe that day is not far.
After we got home, we plan to do the Earth Hour, just turn off all your lights and electronics for one hour from 8.30 to 9.30, we finished super at about 7 oclock and found we felt kind of tired so we turned off all the things that consume electricity(actually we dont have much things) and decided to take a nap, when we woke up, it's already 20 to 10, ahah, it seemed like we contributed much more than the others.
These are the two pics my friends gave me this morning, he took the pics about Earth Hour in Beijing, one is birdnest and one is watercube
Inverse Problem Theory, I have been reading this book since Tuesday, this is the first task of my thesis, but i found it difficult to understand the content of the book, some of the definitions are really abstract. Inverse problem is like trying to get to know or think of the things in the opposite way, like the measurements of gravity field around the earth, we could predict the values of gravity field by maeasuring the distribution of mass inside the planet, and there are different distributions of mass that give exactly the same gravity field in the space outside earth, as to inverse problem is to infer the mass distribution from observations of the gravity field. At beginning i thought this book was about the math, mechanics and computations, but it's not sheer calculations, i think i will have to spend more time to read it so as to understand it.Today Glenn and Dees visited us, two new missionaries, we think they are as awesome as the others, i received a letter from Tom, he told us he was doing well in Homstad and made a lot of new friends, Nathan now is studying in Utah, we all miss them so much~
It's been a long time since the last post cuz sometimes i seem to have no inspiration for good quality writing. I am now writing my thesis with professor Lars-Erik who came from Luleå institute of technology. We met at central station yesterday morning, he flew down here from Luleå and introduced the general idea of the work to me and recommended some papers and gave me a book to read. It's a very interesting topic which concentrates on the study of inverse problem. Last Sunday was Spring Festival (Chinese New Year), we made the dumplings at home. Making dumplings is a heavy work for us, but it was fun for two people making them together. After lunch, we chated with our families in Beijing and watched the Spring Festival Show on CCTV, it was brilliant.Now i also have to finish two extra courses to get enough credits for my master guaduation, i suppose i would get my master degree by the end of June.
i havent written my blog for quite a while,so i must write something, school is really busy,now i am at the computer room,waiting for the teacher to give us a lecture,something went wrong with the computer system, someone couldnt log in the system. I got a chance to work as an assistant,actually Per gave me a opportunity to teach student in the lab to show them how to do the tensile testing and i also could get some money for that and that's really good. i am very happy not only because i could get money but also is that Per trusted me, this indicated that i am the best ,hahahaha. i am now drawing some kind of the microstructure of protein,so i must go now,finish is as soon as possible then go home and have some chicken legs..Ö haha
Mattias and Stina came to visit us today,they bought us a bunch of flowers,Katherine likes so much.We chated a little bit in the apartment and then little Clara felt sleepy but Stina told me that it's really hard to make her sleep so we decided to take a walk at the park.We spent a great time walking around the park lake in the afternoon,the wild geese seem not afraid of people at all,I took a pic of him,he was right in front of my camera displaying his strength to me... ...this's a funny goose.One interesting thing was that I found a chestnut,in Swedish called kastanj,on the ground of the park,Stina told me Swedes seldom eat it,but you know Chinese people really enjoy it.After that we drove back to my apartment and started to cook super for all of us,Mattias and Stina saw some pics we took in Beijing they said i was young then.After the dinner,I played Chinese Chess with Mattias,it's amazing that he could play it and seems quite good at it,i used to play some when I was very young,but I just know the rules but have no strategies,so I made some stupid mistakes during the COMPETITION (-; and at last I lost my game just got the silver medal. 
Cute Clara
She wants to eat everything 
In the park

The school keeps busy this week,so i hardly have time to blog my blog.This afternoon Mattias,Davis and Tom came to visit us,we talked a lot about the book of Mormon and had a really good time,after the meeting,they tasted a Chinese candy,which was mailed by my mom from Beijing,called Haw Cake,this truly is a chinese candy,they seemed like it and Mattias also took one back home for Stina.haah~I think I should finish our story in Paris as soon as possibleVERSAILLES,VERSAILLES,how I wish I had been a French royalty (-: we woke up early in the morning and made our way to Cimetiere Du Pere Lachaise to see what Chopin's grave is like (I like to play his waltz)then took the suburban train out the city to versailles,I have a question now is that Versailles is a separate town or just a suburb of Paris?Versailles is a cute little town as well as the towns here in Sweden,we went into a bakery to get a French dessert,it's really delicious.Chateau Versailles is right in the middle of the road.The queue to the ticket office was huge,but we were used to it,we waited for almost 1 hour to get into the palace and grab two voice tour guides,one in mandarine and one in English.Lin is fond of history,especially European history,we followed the radio and toured the various apartments of king and queen,the Hall of Mirrors, all the rooms opened to the public,everything was gilded and magnificent and reeked of wealth.Then we headed out to the garden,this is a part of a house?i was wondering what the French King did in this huge garden,the flower beds,fountains and statues were gorgeous.It's a pity that we didn't have time to visit Grand & Petit Trianon which was dominated by Marie-Antoinette,Lin likes her so much and I love Lin so much.I think I dont have time to upload photos,tomorrow~tomorrow~It's mid-autumn day tomorrow,we are here in Sweden missing our family so much~~~~~~~~
Continue our story in Paris
That was our fifth day in Paris,cuz we just had 3 days left,so we decided to visit some famous museums.We first took the metro to Pantheon in the Latin Quarter,the place where Foucault developed his pendulum and it still swings today,along with the burial place of Alexandre Dumas, Victor Hugo, Marie Curie, Voltaire, Rousseau and Emile Zola.
We then headed for the Louvre,we didn't take too long to get in,bought the tickets then started to meander around at Denon area,we didn't go directly to Mona Lisa,cuz we had lots of time,the day we went there was Thursday,and Louvre closed at 8.30PM(if my memory serves me).We went through Italian sculptures,Grecian art pieces,French Paintings and Egyptian arts which was Lin's favourite and saw many treasures,we found that all the artworks were amazingly preserved,golden mummy tombs are really amazing to see..but I think our camera didn't do them justice,there was so much reflection from the window,I tried to switch off the flash,but my hands keeping vibrating,so the pic was not clear.
We walked around Louvre for about 4 hours,then we agreed that it's time to visit Mona Lisa.We had a map of Louvre,so we didn't take so long to get to the Mona Lisa,along with everyone else,we bumbled our way on through and got the pic just in front of her,it's not as big as we expected before and it seemed it had faded a little bit,i meant not colorful like in the magazine,someone we met at the gate of Louvre said that a tour guide they had before said that if you were to spend 2 minutes looking at every piece of art you would be in there for over 2 years,It truly is an amazing place.
