I felt so terrible today. it seems  the god is against me. nothing is going right except my face.it is almost without a pimple now. 

work on, poor fish.

It is exciting to see the pictograms  be unveiled at the two-year countdown to the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The pictograms,which comprise 35 sport icons, are designed on the basic form of seal characters.

The seal character is considered one of the five forms of Chinese scripts. People used it for writing in ancient China,thousands years ago. However, it was abandoned and forgotten by most people soon, because of its complex strokes. Nowadays you can only see the seal characters in some special books, and few people have the ability to read them or use them for writing. As for me, I have learned some seal characters in the colleage, and always regard them with distinct aesthetic perception. Maybe it is quite inconvenient to use the seal character for communication in our daily life, but we should not abandon it overall, for it has become a cultural symbol actually. In another word, it should be remembered for its rich cultural connotations.

I admire the designers.They are so talented to show us such a wonderful inspiration, which integrates the charm of antient Chinese script with simplified embodiment of modern graphics.

You can compare them with the seal characters below. The words are written as "奥林匹克  北京  二零零八" in modern Chinese script, which mean OLYMPIC BEIJING 2008.

It cost me much much time to find this blog website, but I think it's worthy indeed. The blog runs much faster than MSN Space which I used these days, and much much faster than LiveJournal which disappointed me deeply this afternoon. As well as quick, It's quite convinent and looks lovely.So, I'll move my English Garden here from now on!So happy!
