Norwegian Wood

Yok says that i like this song very much. Yes, I do.

Everytime I listen to this song, I feel that I am in the old British house with a strong fire in the fireplace, and it is about 9ish in the evening and it is always in the winter.
Most of time I would sit on the sofa, by the side of the fireplace and the smell of old carpet and wood would mix up to become a scent of enternity--old, but timeless.

I would repeat the song again and again with eyes closing to let the every little stories of my life run in my mind without any pause. Most of time, I couldn't even have time to think of any event happened in my life, the song repeated itself again.

Life is very long if I can live up to 80 years old, but life is also relatively very short, if we only extract the essence of it and compare it with a legth of a song, like the Norwegian Wood, maybe life could be shorter than 2 minutes and 5 seconds.

Well, this is what I always think of when listening to the song, and I still don't know how long my life could be if it could be played as music by other people like I play the song. Would they repeat my life like I repeat the song? Would they have certain imagination of my life like I do to the song?

By repeating the song I love, my life has been pushed forward by the time, non-repeatly, again.

關於流行

關於流行是什麼我想每個人都有自己的一套邏輯, 從黑白灰的極簡搭配法則到穿甚麼都行但鞋子一定要很高級的特別品味者, 都是他們自己認同的流行。 當然也有自己走不出的迷思, 有愛買夾克,卻常常抱怨衣櫃裡的褲子太少, 但一出門逛街所倒之處卻還是常常停留在夾克上的偏執狂, 也有打折品才入手不管正價商品有多好的的撿便宜消費者 至於流行單品本身的呈現也幾乎是無法一概而論的, 同樣一件單品可以在兩個完全不同品味的人身上找到,而兩樣看似毫不相干的單品卻也常常可以完美的融入一個人的風格中。流行單品本身幾乎是沒有界線的,是我們自己給航行在流行這片汪洋茫茫然不知所措的現代人們一艘艘不同風格的船來搭乘。 對我而言,自然我是站在某一艘所謂的風格的船上,使用著自己的邏輯,重蹈著自己的迷思來看待流行,其用意不在挑戰任何其他不同品味的消費者,反而是希望再將來的某一天我可以發現自己所搭乘的這艘"風格船"倒底是個什麼樣子。

LONDON STREET

the end of the second year

(Roundhay park, Leeds) it is the end of my second year in the UK, and it is time to leave Leeds, a city where I stayed for more than 700 days. so I am moving down to London, and aim to be a Londoner for which I don't even know what's that suppose to mean. it is not very pleasant being jobless and still move to the one of the most expensive city in the world, to be honest. However, there is something can't be valued by the money. No pain no gain, from my own interpretation is that I have to suffer from the pain of being short of money to gain the happiness of life, sometimes, life can be more when the budget is less. Well, it is still important for me to get a job to pay the rent, food, and all the bloody bills...
