When two language players play

I am not talking about the rules in linguistics,
nor the art in literature discipline.

Language is meant to deal with people.
When you talk, I guess I could understand the message behind.

And I think I could be able to expect your expectation.
And I know you know my reaction – two choices, either way.

But sometimes I just don’t want to play, especially when I can see it through.

Coffee, or tea

I failed to remember since when and from where did I have the perception that coffee is gorgeous but milk tea is not. Perhaps because coffee costs more, (you can find it in our canteen that coffee costs $9 and milk tea only $7.)

As a coffee lover, I should under no circumstances appreciate milk tea. This concept remains until I tried my first cup of tea. That was the one I bought from canteen last year during a lecture break. That day, the coffee machine went out of order, and it was so warm and sweet during winter time that I could have a cup of hot drink. Though I accepted it, but still, I couldn’t figure out the reason why people love it so much. So since then I’ve had my second cup and so on, (only during lecture break, or else I would still go for coffee,)

And today, I had another cup in the interpretation lecture break. Suddenly I understood the reason behind. Unlike other drinks, it was the bitter sweet that attracts; and its taste is far milder than coffee so people can easily accept and appreciate.

Should I behave sweeter and milder like tea that more people would accept, or should I remain the coffee style that only attract “coffee lovers”? Or how about act like latte, is latte still coffee?

雯雯: um... mum said that if i go to sec. school interview.. i need say "i want to be a teacher"... but i surely want do atheletes... but no money if i do this.
我: ... ...

then i asked myself what do i expect from myself when i have to step in the society

i better hunt a stable job with stable income...
teacher for example...
with my relative education in languages...
yea, im planning to do an education diploma...
with cgpa 3.5/4.0, i can surely get a firm offer right?

and as long as i have money in my pocket i better say nothing abt the government coz it would change nothing by doing so

i should change things i cant accept and accept those i cant change...
if i cant change... (cant understand) the SAR government
try my best to marry one with UK/US passport

yes
these are all i can do after my graduation

**

but what was my OWN dream?

that was,
be a journalist and dreaming that i CAN change the society

would it be a dream forever...
i mean... even if i can accept the low paid and long working hours
and even if i have a rich husband to support me being a journlist

am i able to change a thing?

**

we did have dreams
the high-profile dreams...

you, too, my dear post 50s 60s 70s ...
have you forgotten yours?

DOUBT MY DOUBT

呢一年半以來 背負住讀書唔成ge罪名 銳氣被挫光
高中時期ge所謂性格亦要被重塑
於是我曾經嘗試過用正常人ge思考模式生活

走堂 唱k 買衫
只要我食得好 住得好 嫁得好
所有政治 社會 民生問題一概與我無關

甚至有一段時期我日日推翻自己多年ge理想
諗住讀完語文出來可以做marketing
搵夠錢就去旅遊

但原來我唔得
唔同媒體渲染ge社會議題 依然可以觸動我個心
有時甚至會有眼淚想湧出來ge感覺

或者我前世就係果d最容易被希特勒煽動ge熱血青年

或者我自己讀語文 但卻resist唔到傳媒語文ge威力

又或者我根本就係注定要從事為恐天下不亂ge傳媒工作
