this too shall pass










You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

It's just a moment
This time will pass

-- Stuck In A Moment, U2

"How do you calculate a departure?

Not by the hours or minutes but a moment.
An instant when the decision was made.
To leave."

Beautiful words from the publicity material for Where are the Children?

This sighing lateness; a postmodern liminality.
This is where I am.



Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

- Mark Twain

解不出的所以然。 但绝对不是空虚吧。
因为枕头套湿透了。

女生爱穿高跟鞋, 为的不是要和男生平起平坐。
而是在反地吸引力时, 有男生细心牵着。
在不符合人体龚学的范围, 体验自然的爱。

时间冲淡
时间加深

他妈的时间到底干吗?

在群人中, 他很突出。 那种一枝独秀并非闪闪耀眼, 却是因静静的纯压抑、 郁闷而感人。

他很突出。 因为他的外表。 因为他的哲学。
因为他的尴尬。

他很突出。

因为他的寂寞。

So I was looking for quotes on food, and came across these:


We are living in a world today where lemonade is made from artificial flavors and furniture polish is made from real lemons. ~Alfred E. Newman

Anybody who believes that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach flunked geography. ~Robert Byrne

We think fast food is equivalent to pornography, nutritionally speaking. ~Steve Elbert

You can find your way across this country using burger joints the way a navigator uses stars. ~Charles Kuralt

Hunger is the best sauce in the world. ~Cervantes

An onion can make people cry, but there has never been a vegetable invented to make them laugh. ~Will Rogers

朋友的 MSN nick :

幸福的开始就是放手去爱
(这是林俊杰、金沙《期待爱》里的一句词。)



我的“回复”:

放手的代价就是信任伤痛

二月二十九。
四年一次的日子。

包涵的是人类文明后, 自作聪明后, 的深领悟。
领悟后, 还是硬把宇宙塞进规规矩矩的文明。

这年头我家的一段经典对话。



这辈子第一次在外用年夜饭。 大哥大嫂安排的菜色简直直逼满汉全席。 饭后上车没几分钟我忍不住叫了一句。 “ 我真的好饱好饱啊!”

妈: “哈哈! 你小时候吃完饭我问‘饱了吗?’ 你都爱把衣服拉起来然后说 ‘饱饱!’ 我只好摸摸你肚子说 ‘好,把衣拉回去。’ ”

我: !!!

长辈们念旧所以爱把往事加岩加醋。 我只好很疑惑地推姐的手, 要她确认此话真假。 因为大我五岁, 她对我儿时的记忆会比自己还清楚吧。

姐: “Okay let's just say that when you were small you were really very cute. And I mean small, like really little.

那车里是第二轮的震耳笑声。 -_-


小时的豪放长大后只剩下一堆自认保守又不完整的原则。 我也念旧。 尤其是当身边同龄朋友都已开始订婚结婚。 感觉脑袋好老, 却因单身而比他们都青春。 这相应的矛盾让我念旧了。


因为在那没记忆的日子里, 只有玩泥沙、 荡秋千、 装大人。

还有妈喂我吃饭后的那句 “饱了吗?”

最近常听朋友们说他们一看到这段电视广告都会想起我。

麦当劳的新春广告

他们会想到我, 也算有些温馨吧。 所以都笑着回答: “我家团圆饭从来没那样啦! 因为我们除夕中午就收工, 哈哈!”

要过农历年了, 还不快去买肉干!

香味

新年快乐!

凌晨那段谈话就那么突然却又自然地开始和结束。


她眼里泛着泪。
我逼出一脸面无表情, 因为在那一刻我似乎应该坚强。

用理智的句子去平衡她满满的感性。


她忘了桌上那熬了一天刚喝了半碗的药, 站了。

走到房前把门打开, 进去后小声把门关上。

我依然坐在沙发, 抱着垫子, 望着地板。

她站了, 走进房了。
这有点突然, 但其实是自然的。

因为她的泪, 忍不住了。


我胸前感到浓浓的郁闷。
所以把垫子整理, 然后进房。


坐在电脑前打着键盘。
打字声和不知觉静静流下的泪成了最大对比。
上一次这样边流泪边上MSN已是几年前的事。


视线模糊了。
在无声的文字中好友听到我的难受。
发泄。

洗个澡。
两点半了。


再到电脑前, 上了搜狗网, 下载 《隐性的翅膀》。
然后在打这篇文字时重复播放。


眼皮肿得难过。 好饿、好累。

睡觉吧。


耳机传来久别的玄略。 真巧。
Sarah McLachlanAngel


额头两边疼痛。 好像脑袋被冲了无限量的气却又爆不开。
抱着胸口的沉重只想休息。

但这包袱让我给周公爽约。


闭上眼见到黑色的泪水。


我失眠了。



每一次 都在徘徊孤单中坚强
每一次 就算很受伤也不闪泪光
我知道 我一直有双隐形的翅膀
带我飞 飞过绝望

不去想 他们拥有美丽的太阳
我看见 每天的夕阳也会有变化
我知道 我一直有双隐形的翅膀
带我飞 给我希望

我终于看到 所有梦想都开花
追逐的年轻歌声多嘹亮
我终于翱翔 用心凝望不害怕
哪里会有风就飞多远吧

隐形的翅膀 让梦恒久比天长
留一个愿望 让自己想象




Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
(you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here)

So tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lie
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

21 岁, 对我而言真的不太吉利。
又再长大, 又再面目全非。


我依然坚持人不需长命。 重质不重量。
以往认定50岁就应到九泉下。
现在认为还是55吧。

因为想用那几年。。。
休假。


生。
死。

Because I was called "racist".

Heck, having this in English is racist too.


----------


December seems to give people a sense of festivity and boundless joy. For the life of me, I just can't fathom this, although yes, I believe that God exists. December always make me feel crowded and compartmentalized. The month reminds me mainly, of people I know. Specifically, foreign friends and local friends who are overseas. December is never a one-way street of positivity, but a roundabout of flat gradient over different types of terrain. It becomes an intense period of knowing new foreign friends, and touching-base with those already acquainted. And then January arrives and everyone of us is sucked back into the habit of living.


[Looking back]

December 2003:
Sunburst Youth Camp - Singapore delegate

December 2004:
Attended finale of SYC and got grilled about The Break-Up and university choices

December 2005:
Sunburst Youth Camp - liaison officer

December 2006:
Singapore-Hong Kong International Youth Exchange Programme

December 2007:
Sunburst Youth Camp: Alumni Camp - participant


December is the month when I visit the airport. And the airport is the one place that encompasses life.

桌上放着两杯牛奶和三文治。

男孩坐在电脑前打电玩。 女孩坐在他身边, 沉醉于书本的天马行空。


他喜欢趁她不注意时, 把手伸过去, 温柔疼惜地抚摸她的脸蛋, 然后轻轻把她的头移到自己的肩膀上。 她的思路被打断了, 却只哼了一小声, 很自然舒服地靠进他怀里。

因为女孩的唯一避风港就在男孩的怀里。

小俩口是甜蜜, 是感动, 也是平静的幸福。


但这世界是个完美的恶作剧。 男人的肩膀有两个, 所以天生注定不能专一。

女孩的幸福, 注定没有一辈子。

只有瞬间, 只有无底的骈体鳞伤。

周一晚上十一点的地铁尾仓, 只有十来位乘客。

在一个寂寞的角落, 小男孩的手机重复播放 《彩虹》。


哪里有彩虹告诉我
能不能把我的愿望还给我
为什么天这么安静
所有的云都跑到我这里

有没有口罩一个给我
释怀说了太多就成真不了
也许时间是一种解药
也是我现在正服下的毒药

看不见你的笑 我怎么睡得着
你的声音这么近我却抱不到
没有地球太阳还是会绕
没有理由我也能自己走

你要离开 我知道很简单
你说依赖 是我们的阻碍
就算放开 但能不能别没收我的爱
当作我最后才明白


好简单的一首歌。 简单的词句、 简单的玄略、 清晰的口齿。

却让那空气变成石头。

疲倦的乘客们低头默默深望。 大家隔着座位, 各自寻找自己的一块地板。

空气都感悲伤。

地铁仓里, 是看不见彩虹的。
