New life in London

I moved to here almost 10 days ago, but have just settled 20 hours ago.

Everyone needs a room, a room which can be messed or decorated by his own will, of course, in my case, by the will of both of us. It is fine, totally fine, as long as we can have our room. the previous tenants couldn't move out on time, and because I am a good person, so we stay on the floor of living room for another few nights.

I am amazed by the desire of longing for a new room from my heart, it is so strong, too strong to wait for another day to move in after the minute the previous tenants say bye to me.

New bed setting, new arrangement of the furniture, new home for my clothes, everything is in order after non-stop cleaning and unpacking for few hours and even the peace lily travelled from Leeds with us finally can spread his leaves happily in the corner of new room.

But we are not very familiar with this room yet, at least, not when we were sleeping. I had too many crazy dreams last night, but we will be fine soon. Because we have our room at last, no more school accommodation, no more cheap ghost house (though I had good time there), and no more sleeping bag and clod tough floor.

it is interesting that having a room is important to me. Does that imply that I don't want to have adventure anymore? or I want 1/3 of my day under control? or it is just a simple sign that I am getting old? the answer may be that I want to have a new start of my life, and it begins with a nice bedroom.

So new job is in hand, just needed to sign the contract with them (hope that I can sign it asap), new bedroom is under control and I even met a new friend from old school days today, but personally still need some old friends around with me.

After all friends are not luggages can be taken to anywhere I go, they are lively life shining in other part of this world, I can't be too greedy.

As for the new friend from old time, we were in the same major at the same year back to the university, and we have contact with each other for more than 4 years, although we were not that close in the uni anyway. But it is amazing to meet an old person you know in a totally different country. You don't have to give too many reasons to meet up, just say hi to each other in the same city far away from our home town is more than enough.

And if you feel happy after the meeting and feel like making a new friend, then it would be the best re-union. And I feel so, cool man!

Life is a little bit too active at moment for me now. But I will be very flexible and malleable with whatever put in front of me as that is the only way to deal with life and facing the uncertainty is the only purpose of being given the chance to explore this endless world with limited lifespan.

Therefore, I am in London.

愛情考古學

  愛情考古學   靈魂像袋沉甸甸的金幣 不停的掏出來給情人 愛是無價寶,金幣再多也總嘆不夠 故我繼續挖掘金礦以下 除了愛情之外,還可以是什麼 鐵鍬咚咚的挖不下去八百年前的壁岩 在這之前的情感 都媲美金石,敲不碎的 因為那時沒有散漫的愛情 只有堅硬如枷鎖的婚姻 那怎麼會挖不過去 應該很好就穿過了啊 父母之命,媒妁之言 反而堅若磐石 跟現在說說笑笑的婚姻相比 是不鶯歌燕舞卻很長鎖一心 愛情是各時代稀少的珍珠 再挖下去也不能改變現狀 說到底啊!愛情本身是沒有對錯的, 愛上的那個人更是沒有任何方向感的 邱比特的箭亂射人心 羅密歐愛上茱莉葉 人有壽命長短,愛情是附著在人身上 當然也有長長短短的活躍期 那是緻密砌造的城堡 還是天廣地闊裡的草屋 適合讓它佇足呢? 愛情是攔不住也推不動的 也是它讓人們的日子多了份 閃爍不定的魔術感 人們只好傷心的概括 那發生在他們之間的情愛統稱緣份 考古挖掘完走出山洞 有天會有一人跟我交換金幣 然後牽彼此的手 在幾代的愛情岩層上 一起坐看雲起時

樂觀與悲觀

  樂觀與悲觀   昏沈的時候總希望有興奮劑 讓時間過得更有快感 興奮的時候到總怕有個 無形的拉繩攔腰把我扯下   希望之所以夠格成為希望 就是那永遠差一步的距離 或其實是很多步,但每次前進 都以為只剩一步之遙 所以我們永遠懷抱希望。   你們看到的愚蠢是最豁達的無畏 他們的關心是最痛的針氈 而我們的忙碌則怎麼也 掩蓋不了粉飾的日常   沒有爬過黑暗甬道 怎麼會覺得陽光刺眼? 所謂的樂觀應是 徹底的悲觀主義   那所謂的悲觀呢 就是明知走不到那一步 還要每天笑笑地說 我們就要到了

1) 媽~我在英國交到泰國朋友了

時間是 08 年 8 月初,我飛到了英國 還在想著要如何才能聽懂英國腔並且不緊張的與這些金髮碧眼人交談的同時 兩個泰國人也搬進同一間宿舍準備跟我一起生活一陣子 記憶中泰國人都很會做飯菜尤其是男生,他們的櫥櫃裡都有這各式各樣的調味包 比我還會去中國超市買菜也很會招集泰國朋友一起吃飯 小小的宿舍廚房擠上 10 多人的陣仗是如今想來還是溫馨的很阿 不知道從哪一天開始每天要花上兩三個小時跟他們切菜煮菜聊天吃飯成了一天中的大事 我也是參過幾次 " 煮菜 " 這個環節的,當我們都還在學著適應英國不可思議的高物價的時候 Morrisons value 是主要材料,誰下廚並不重要畢竟只要煮熟能吃然後省錢大家也就心滿意足了 於是一星期中我也被分配到要煮個兩三次菜 但不知怎麼樣的就像是達爾文說的適者生存不適者淘汰,我漸漸的成為了專門的洗碗工 那些不會洗碗的人都被我淘汰而我也從火爐旁退下了 洗碗不錯阿不洗碗哪來乾淨的碗盛飯菜呢就像禿鷹雖然不討喜但也是生物鏈重要的一環呢 這樣想想也就不會覺得煮菜不好吃有什麼了不起了 也就是在跟他們吃飯的同時我們彼此練習英文,嚴格說來是我只聽得懂英文所以 "ENGLISH PLEASE" 變成我前 一兩 個月的口頭禪 當時生活中能遇到的洋人只有老師吧,如果我想講英文就非跟其他國家的亞洲人莫屬了 曾經覺得怎麼會這樣,我來英國念書想要好好學英文卻一個老外朋友也沒有 但是語言學校不就是這樣,學到的是生活大於課業,實際多於想像 而沒去過泰國也可以交到泰國朋友不是一件不可思議的事嗎 兩個講著不同語言的人可以用英文溝通也是我第一次發現英文的樂趣 英文不是教科書裡的東西不是賺錢的工具也不是嚴肅的玩意兒 英文是交朋友的好幫手,璧如說兩個陌生的人要打招呼了 HOW R U? I AM FINE. HOW AOBUT U? GOOD! GOOD! 接下來就可以聊聊天氣音樂生活或彼此國家進而成為朋友了 用中文的話就不這麼容易了 你好嗎 我很好 你呢 ? 很好 ! 很好 ! 這種開頭根本不可能當作開場白吧甭說要發展成有意義的對話了 所以我才覺得英文實在是一種最適合社交的語言,同時也開起了我對於交朋友的樂趣 ...
