Tennis at Stanford Again

Today we went to Stanford tennis court again for other two games.

The first game:  Marion Bartoli (French, rank 9)  v.s. Ayumi Marita (Japanese, rank 48)

Ayumi Marita

Marion Bartoli, she won the game since her opponent sprained her feet and gave up

Live...

The second game, Agnieszka Radwańska (Polish, rank 14) v.s. Sabine Lisicki (German, rank 26)

Sabine Lisicki

The second game was the best and most exciting one. It lasted almost 3 hours. Finally, Sabine Lisicki won the game!

Tennis at Stanford and Serena Williams

There is a series of tennis matches at Stanford tennis court. (Their website)
I went there with people in our dorm tonight. Serena Williams was pretty good, and the opponent didn't get any point.

Fireworks at Stanford

At 10:00 pm, I heard loud sound from somewhere on the campus. Following the sound, I found there were fireworks at Stanford.

Awesome Recording Studios

Our mentor, Jacob, gave us a trip to "CCRMA". It's a department which combined Engineering and Music.
There are lots of recording studios, speaker, instruments, Macs, projectors, etc.

there are 24 speakers in this room (it means that there are 24 sound tracks...)

Raining Day

I though that there is no rain during the summer here. However, it rained this afternoon.

Jogging

I went jogging!

Stanford Libraries

Stanford has lots of libraries. It's impossible to find a specific book there. Therefore, we should always search the book on the web of the library beforehand and record its number.

Stanford Art Center

There is art center on the campus. It's called "Cantor Art Center".

Can you believe that the person on the right is a sculpture? His name is David.

This is the front door; however, it's too big to fit into this photo.

There is a interesting picture, isn't it?

Church at Stanford

A big church is located on the middle of the campus, and a pipe organ is behind. There was somebody playing it while I was there.

People become very peaceful inside the church.

Hoover Tower

Hoover Tower is the most famous spot on the campus, I think. It was built to honor the president of America, Herbert Hoover. It's a old building with a traditional elevator.

There is a special piano on the top, which keys are connected to big bells.

There are the pictures I took from the top of the tower.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

The Book Store at Stanford

The is a three-floor book store at Stanford. There are lots of book on ground floor(of course). On the second floor, they sell Stanford clothes, Apple products, laptops, haagen-dazs, etc.

They also sell Stanford Iphone cases.

Campus Tour times 3

After the lunch, our menders gave us a campus tour; however, I took another tour on my own after it. And, I took one more tour with my new friend here at night. So, I totally took three campus tours today.

Stanford is really beautiful. Here are some photos:

My new friend.

This is the oval in front of the campus.

The building for Computer Science.

Is this a party?

And, Stanford has their own map system working with GPS, which allows me find the directions here. It's the reason that I don't get lost recently.
