2015 Varenne Chess Tournament is a not so pleasant experience. But I do think it is a good thing to evaluate the current situation and challenge our status qu0 from time time. If we can learn the lesson and turn the lesson into positive motivtion，then bad things can only lead to good things..
No matter what happened, do not lose confidence. Step back, be humble and work hard. But perhaps more importantly, work smarter.

The picture that Qiuyu drew might give you an idea about how he felt about this tournament:
After the tournament, we headed to Chinatown for dinner at KanBai (红翻天) with Xinyu and her mom: very typical chinese food:

We had:
-Flavored Mixed Beef Tripe & Heart with Spicy Sauce (夫妻肺片): Marvelous! Highly recommended!
-Hot & Sour soup: our routine!
-Spicy Beef Served on a Sizzling Iron Plate
-Hot Fish Fillet with pickled Chinese Cabbage：actually spicy, in a good way; it used to be my favourite!
-Kung Pao Hot Spicy Chicken with Peanuts
-Dry-fried green beans with minced pork: everyone loves it!
