So, its been a while since I have written anything. Chinese is kicking my butt and I have little time. Yesterday our business class took a field trip to Sun Microsystems and Lenovo. This is a pic of us at Lenovo holding one of the Olympic torches.
About that torch...
Its designed to look like an old fashioned paper scroll. The scroll is divided equally into two parts; earth and sky, symbolizing harmony (yin yang). The bottom (red) is earth, and the upper (squiggly lines) are 'lucky clouds'. Main color is red, symbolizing strength.
Also, the upper portion (cloud area) is some sort of metal, while the lower is some polymer based something or another. Anyways, my point is that the bottom is actually warm to the touch, unlike the metal on the top. It symbolizes peace through the shaking of warm hands.
Ok, back to my presentation which i have to give tomorrow.
