Russian Doll, Dolls

Photobucket

Now I'm back to school from the winter break. 50 days flashed by. Not so much could be done but destructed in such peculiar weather: dreadfully cold in Southern China. Other daily matters seemed to shrink into nothing compared to the frozen temperature. So I mostly spent every day shifting from bed to the computer chair, trifling with little weirdos in dad's bookshelf where this Russian doll, or say, Russian dolls lied.

Last time I saw it/them was many many years ago. Not sure what it calls, just name it Russian doll/dolls. I reckon that many people have one/them or at least seen one/them in store. This one/these ones I've got in hand is/are not delicately carved and painted. It's/They're made from tough material, poor color painted with scattered glittery powders. XD Nonetheless, in general, the structure remains the same which serves as an inspiring life philosophy for me:

a. there is always more inside;
b. you are always framed within a circle.

P.S: Bigger has smaller in. Google it, an interesting site http://russian-crafts.com/nest/history.html with a word "Matryoshka" popped out.
