刚才去电影院看了《谍中谍III》。总体说来还不错，情节紧凑，扣人心弦，虽然偶尔这里或那里有些地方不太真实或者合乎情理。汤哥宝刀未老，笑起来倍儿有亲和力，表演得也很到位很感人。片子的高潮部分背景是在上海，有对上海繁华夜景的描绘，但是更多的场景是在“旧城区”（有一段好像取景自类似周庄那样的水乡），旧房子，旧家具，老年人打麻将。。。完全是上个世纪初的样子，让人有时空错乱的感觉。即便是在展示上海市中心的高楼大厦的时候，也故意在镜头中搞一些晾在外面的内衣，让人很ft，好像是故意要展现一些stereotypical的场景才甘心。我觉得这样的手法有些拙劣。除此之外，片子还是不错的，值得推荐！

Today when I was on my way home, I saw a goose family: father, mother, and a flock of baby geese! The baby geese were quite  ugly indeed, with only a little "hair" on their heads. The parents geese are quite vigilant to passers-by. When I went close to them, the two of them opened their mouths to me, sounding intimidating voice to me. But they really don't have to do that to me, coz I will never hurt a goose!

This morning, when I was on my way to the University, I saw a mother duck followed by 5 baby ducks strolling on the roadside. They are so cute! (again no photos sorry:)

Yesterday when I was on my way home, walking past an on-campus residence building, suddenly I noticed ahead of me a large living thing (when I say large, I mean larger than squirrels and geese which can be seen all over the campus). After I move closer, I realized it was a raccoon! This is the first time I've ever seen a real raccoon. It has black spots around the eyes, and striped tail (yellow and black), just as in pictures and cartoons. This is amazing!

Now the raccoon is added to my list of wild animals that I got a visual of, which already included: squirrels, geese, rabbits, ducks, beavers, skunks.

An interesting side note: the smell of a skunk can go as far as 5 miles. So never ever make a skunk angry!
