贵族(第一篇)

The Love of Sand

循众要求(其实是循某人要求),写了这篇心得,哈哈... 二十多岁了,学老人家话斋,好命的都已做了孩子的爸妈啦,哈哈...根据众多身边的朋友的经验之谈,集合了本世纪到了适婚年龄却还是单身贵族的种种原因。
1a)不是俊男美女:如果你说你不是看外表的,那可是骗人的啦,不然哪会有那么多‘一见钟情’呢?要是不靓仔,也要高大威猛,或有型。要是不靓女,也要有气质,或是可爱的。要是都没有,也至少要靠后天补救,打扮一下嘛。如果你都没有,那么就比较难啦。
1b)你是俊男美女:太多人追了,所以要求也变高了,以致觉得会有更好,更配得上你的人将会出现。可是其实这也是大多数人对俊男美女们的误解,因为发现有些其实是没有人追的,怕追不起?又或者别人都觉得很没有安全感,因为你有太多爱慕者了。
2a)你太高调了:你的话太多,只要有你在的地方,就听得到你的声音,嘴巴几乎不用休息的,根本就没有半点要聆听对方的意思。
2b)你太低调了:根本就没有人会发觉你的存在,因为你太静了,几乎可以说是隐形的。
3a) 异性缘太好:很多异性朋友,可是都被当成‘姐妹'(如果你是男的)或‘兄弟’(如果你是女的)。
3b)没有异性缘:跟异性好像是绝缘体般,或者不会与异性沟通的方式,不会适时放电。朋友多得是,可是都是同性的。
4a)吊儿郎当的男人:从来没有为自己的生活好好规划过,漫无目标的过日子,不能给对方安全感。
4b)学历太高/女强人:这个应该是比较适用于女人的吧,男人都会觉得你高高在上,虽然女人根本没那么想过。
5)你不是有钱人:太多人向‘钱’看了。你看,多少女明星嫁给比她们老一大截的男人,而他们都有一个共同点,就是家财万贯。或者你根本不想在没有经济能力之前谈恋爱,不相信有情饮水饱这个道理。
6)timing不对:要集合天时地利人和可不是那么简单的。地球上两个人能相遇就已经不容易,相遇了要有机会认识对方,认识了又要有机会了解彼此,觉得适合了又要有机会告诉对方,告诉了对方又要有机会开始。总之就是要靠timing啦,不然就有缘无份啦。
7) 搭错线:A喜欢B,B喜欢C,C喜欢D,D却喜欢A,总之就是乱到完啦。 歌都有得唱啦-我爱的人不是我的爱人~。

好了,暂时写到这里为止,有觉得哪一个原因好像在说着你吗?哈哈... 其实还有很多原因,下次再写吧。

Breathing...

We tend to take things for granted. Every moment we're breathing in and out and we aren't really aware of it because it's just so easy for us. However, seeing people having difficulty in breathing, gasping for breath, breathing through oxygen mask reminds me of how lucky one is, when breathing is just a simple action done every moment without much or even a slight awareness of it...

Unexpectedly...



Things just always happen unexpectedly. Life is full of surprises. Sometimes there are things that u'd never want it to happen to u but somehow it happens and these uncertainties are so beautiful. Seeing how things happen to friends around me make me think of the last sentence of this paragraph from one of my favourite books by 几米(向左走向右走)。
They're both convinced that a sudden passion joined them.
Such certainty is beautiful,but uncertainty is more beautiful still.
他们彼此深信是瞬间迸发的热情让他们相遇。
这样的确定是美丽的,但变幻无常更为美丽
摘译自辛波丝卡(Wislawa Szymborska)"Love at First Sight"第一段

The Joy of Sharing

I shared my mum's homemade banana walnut cake with others in the BF gathering yesterday. In such a short time, only 1 piece or 2 was left. Although I did not eat much, but I felt happy because 1) I was proud of my mom's baking skill, hehe... 2) the feeling of sharing was great. It's true that the more you give, the more you get. Just by sharing some 'little' things with others can bring so much joy.

十分红

Yesterday I watched 十分红演唱会 broadcasted live by NTV7 n 2 of my favourite female artists were there - Penny Tai n Stephanie Sun. Penny was so cool, playing guitar, singing songs composed by herself. How I wish my skill in playing guitar will improve day by day(a beginner like me should seek help from someone 'professional', hehe...) I was especially touched when I watched Stephanie Sun singing 'What I Miss'(我怀念的), cos I could really feel that she's singing from deep inside her heart, just like telling a story of her own. I think a singer is considered successful when her songs touch people's heart. Well done, Yanzi, u're 1 of the great singers that touches my heart with uncountable great songs...

Winter Solstice

Today is Dong Zhi, which is an important festival of the Chinese calendar. I found out something about it from a website(Discover HongKong) and I particularly like the last 2 sentences of this paragraph:
It is celebrated on the longest night of the year, when sunshine is weakest and daylight is shortest. This celebration can be traced to the Chinese belief in yin and yang, which represents balance and harmony in life. It is believed that the yin qualities of darkness and cold are at their most powerful at this time, but it is also the turning point, giving way to the light and warmth of yang. For this reason, the Dong Zhi Festival is a time for optimism.
I'm glad that I'm home to celebrate this festival. We had a family reunion dinner yesterday(earlier), eating Tang Yuan together(although baby Ee Shuen can't eat Tang Yuan yet this year, hehe....)

改变.接受

The Dry Leaf

与其抬头看着一片片凋落的叶子而感叹,低头看着满地金黄色的落叶而感伤,不如敞开心扉欣赏秋天的美景,才会看到身边其实还有许多美好的事物值得让你感动的。
生活中有许多事情并不能如我们所愿的发生,一开始时总是难以接收。如果能改变当然要尝试改变它,可是如果已成了事实,唯有敞开心扉接受它吧。只不过每个人能达到那个'接受'的阶段所耗上的时间都不一样,有人要花上好几天,有人要花上好几年,有人可能永远也接受不了。看开一点吧,别再为了改变不了的事实而苦恼,生活中还有许多其他更值得我们花时间的事和物。
改变所能改变的,接受不能改变的。

红花.绿叶


红花宁愿自己是绿叶,因为红花喜欢与绿叶平起平坐,不想让绿叶觉得红花是与众不同的,只想绿叶把它当成平凡的红花。绿叶宁愿自己是红花,因为绿叶一直觉得红花是与众不同的,自己却好平凡,所以不能与红花平起平坐。可是它们可否知道,其实根本就没有什么特别或平凡之分,毕竟红花与绿叶都是一样的,平凡中带点特别,特别中又带点平凡。

最美的一面

得不到的,总是最美的。这么说,得不到,也未尝不是一件好事,至少可以保留那最美的一面,

灰姑娘?

已经好多次了,看到喜欢的鞋子,却没有适合自己的size。是因为自己的脚板太长了吧?哈哈。。。我穿10号鞋,可是也不是每一个brand的10号都适合我的,cutting小的就不行咯。所以当我买到自己喜欢,又穿得舒服的鞋子时,我会是多么的兴奋。我应该坚持只买自己喜欢的鞋子,还是该随便买一些不是真正喜欢的鞋子算了(只求有size),反正能穿就好了。那么是鞋选我(灰姑娘咩?),还是我选鞋呢?有点要求也没错吧。有时候就降低要求咯,可是还是没有我的size。为何啊?哈哈。。。习惯就好。

another haircut

I went for a haircut(again?). Since when I've started to get my hair cut(or trimmed actually) around every 2 months? If not mistaken it's during 2nd year, when I'd decided that I would only keep my hair at shoulder length, not too long and not too short. The feeling after a haircut is great because I feel 'lighter' as I feel like something that have been troubling me(三千丝烦恼) are being sent away(although it may just be temporary). People always get themselves burdened in all aspects of life eg. relationships, studies, career etc. As in Eason's song: 你的背包,让我走得好缓慢. That's why we have to learn to throw away the unnecessary burdens in our lives that cause our pace slow so that we can keep on walking and live our lives to the fullest. It's easier said than done, let's gambatte together!

Holiday~~~

Yeah, I'm having my holiday now after my Medicine n Society posting. Although it's only for 1 week, i'm glad that it is at the same time with the end sem holidays of my friends in local U. Hopefully I can meet as many friends as possible.

在丹绒加弄的最后一夜



还有几个小时就要离开这儿了,可是因为大部分华人已提早离开了,所以已没什么感觉了。今天的午餐,全部华人一起吃,当录影每个人最后的感言时,真的好舍不得。毕竟在这儿两个月了,大家的感情越来越好。度假般的生活,实在回味无穷,可说是第三学年目前为止最无忧无虑的快乐时光。我们这个posting的华人的团结精神可真的是有目共睹的,可说是前无古人,后无来者,9个男人+9个女人=一条心。共同美好的回忆有:一起做火锅,看萤火虫,庆生会,吃巴生肉骨茶,唱K,吃海鲜,办活动,去猴子山,看戏,打羽球,谈天说地,互相照顾的日子实在难忘。在这里书不用读多,觉也没睡得多,话却说得多,又吃得多,玩得尽兴,好吃好住,当然也越来越有重量啦,哈哈。。。又要回到白色巨塔了,心情难免有些沉重。不知道到时大家还有没有闲情逸致混在一起呢?无论如何,大家一起走过的日子是值得回忆的。谢谢俊男美女司机们让我们两餐温饱,让我们的生活多姿多彩。谢谢电脑高手让我们得以与外界透过互联网联系。谢谢与我有福同享,有难同当的好友们。好好享受假期吧,接着我们一起加油吧!
