So, I don't have any firework for the Chinese National Day here. I miss the crowd, colors, and noise.

This is what I have here. Beautiful isn't it? It's like gold under the evening sun. Maybe this is why we say "money tree." Yes, it's really like gold falling from the tree. My car is sitting right beside it. :)

Look at this. In a few days, all the gold leaves will fall off, just like the one standing right beside it.

This is the same tree, last week. The leaves were beginning to turn gold. Then today, there's no leave left! I cannot believe it!!! (BTW, the black hole in the middle is my apartment.)

I swear. This is the same tree, last week with leaves. Oh, this is life. Life comes and goes.
