Dress Parade

     In September 3rd, there is a grand dress parade in Beijing China for anniversary celebration of the victory of Anti-Fascist war. China has contributed a lot of works and sacrifice for fighting with Japan, one of the most powerful countries during the World War Two.
     I was not that interested in the Parade when I was young. But since I have read a wide range of some stories of Chinese government, I became more and more care about the Parades in my own country. Except the performance of the army, one of the special thing happened in this celebration is all of the three leaders (former presidents and current president) joint the show and watching it together. It has never happened before, one reason is that their relationship is no as good as people think.
    And during this parade, I heard a song that I have not heard officially for almost 1 year, my national anthem. Last time I listen to this song in public still being with my friends in middle school in China. If people says some songs have magic, I will not doubt that. National Anthem had affected me a lot, it brought me to the memory of life in China, and I got heavy homesick.

  3. Good point. The national anthem gives some power that you can't see. It really moves my heart, when I listen to my national anthem!
