Photo taken on Oct. 14, 2009, shows Tibetan girl Geyang (C) plays with her classmates at school in Heifei, capital city of east China's Anhui Province. Geyang is an 11 years old girl who comes from Zetang Town, 150 km southeast of Lhasa, capital city of Tibet Autonomous Region and now studies at the No. 35 Middle School of Hefei with other 80 children from Tibet. They all spent 2 days and nights on the road by train to Hefei and would study here for 4 years. Geyang is a tough girl. When she left his mother she held back the tears and told his mother she would take care of herself and study hard. "I didn't weep in front of my family because they would be sadder when saw my tears." Geyang told. Geyang has got used to the campus life in Hefei since September as she can clean the dorm, wash clothes and make beds by herself. With the encouragement of Geyang' s brother who graduated from the Tibetan class of the No. 35 Middle School of Hefei 2 years ago, Geyang also enters this school. Geyang' s next goal is Shuangliu High school in Chengdu of Sichuan Province and then a university in Beijing. "I will go back to Tibet and be a teacher in primary school like my father." Geyang told.(Xinhua/Liu Junxi) Photo Gallery>>>
