The “drift diary”, like those ancient paper messages put into a bottle left to drift on the high seas to reach hundreds of miles away, connects lonely hearts. The “drift diary” was first started by a Beijing woman, who goes by the Net name Little S, in 2021. It has bee the preferred tool of munication among youngsters afraid to reveal their innermost self to peers, but wanting to share their lives with others.

The numbers in one group are usually restricted to between 30 and 50. The diary then passes on to another by express delivery or personal handover. The diary writers are mostly anonymous but if they wish to reveal their identity they can do so by posting their contact information at the end of their postings. The diary writers add not just words but also decorate the plain notebooks with cartoons, drawings or even dress it up with a ribbon or a new cover. Interesting experiences, travel journals, the simple joys of everyday living or sweet recollections of childhood, all find a place in these diaries. Most often, though, the writers set down their frustrations and predicaments. It usually takes one year for a diary to return to the initiator.

The Diary That Passes on D Most nations have at least one type of food that people from other countries think is unusual or uhical（不道德的） to eat. In France, people eat horse meat and frog legs. In South Korea and parts of China, restaurants serve dog meat. And in Australia, it’s mon to cook kangaroo meat on the barbecue and use emu（鴯鹋） eggs to make pancakes. The kangaroo and emu are native to Australia. Both animals are important to the national image of Australia and appear on the Australian coat of arms. They’re also central figures in the history of the indigenous（土生土長(zhǎng)的） Australian Aboriginals（土著人） . However, Aboriginal tribes still hunt these animals for their meat, fur and fat.
