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.

When two language players play

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?

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...

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?

and even if i have a rich husband to support me being a journlist

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

搵食艱難
響 bestain 個 blog 見到佢話d中學生食得起 $40 ge飯
我就諗起昌少尋日講果句: 佢地(d中學生)食得起 $40 ge lunch但係冇錢比會費!! ($10/m)
我即時有幾個隨想:
1) 乜而家通漲咁勁咩?
2) 我中學果時從未試過返學食 $40 ge lunch
3) hall canteen d飯真係好平
4) 而家d細路真係幸福
5) 每個週末我同細佬叫外賣時佢諗都唔諗就叫全張紙最貴果樣...我埋單
6) 搵食艱難
7) 我仲未食 lunch

認真
從未試過如此認真地去做一件事
八個小時沒有離開過座位 (影印reference除外)
一口氣讀了十多本書和期刊
然後
我終於把那篇中文學術論文寫好了
一個人
寫五個人的份量 ...
但當我看到anthony師兄說自己要寫上一萬字
也就覺得我所做的 很平常
再想想
這種認真的態度
不是很正確 很應份嗎?
只是我以往 太懶罷了

這樣的一個結局
這樣的一個女子,這樣的一個結局
── 論 <<像我這樣的一個女子>> 結局之作用、舖排及其可讀性
1. 引言
2. 結局所起之作用
- 突顯主題
3. 結局之舖排
- 故事情節所留下的伏線
4. 結局之可讀性
- 最好的結局
- 讀者領略
5. 總結
6. 附件
- 參考書目
- 參考結局
比陌生更陌生
兩個曾經相愛的人
分開以後 兜轉經年
又再在同一個圈子重遇
卻比陌生更陌生
兩個陌生人在共同朋友面前
出於禮貌 都會與對方打個招呼
但我們卻因愛不遂
連這點基本的禮貌也失去
昨晚離開校園時
又再與他迎面相遇
我想 要是我主動跟他say hi
他會有甚麼反應
是錯愕 還是高興
畢竟 事隔三年
也再沒有甚麼不可放下
但最後
我還是快步地走了
快得連Dennis也被迅速略過 :'(

不學無術
尋日踩完單車去打邊爐途中同呀謙 (90年ge中文系小朋友) 講西西散文
佢教我留意現代散文入面角色同事情ge象徵意義
我冇讀過文學
如果佢唔點一點我 我真係唔識咁諗
可能我會諗到類似ge野 但唔會好似佢地咁中point
不學無術
就係指我呢種

沒有甚麼是永恆的
上一篇說
有些東西是永恆的
但有時候
我會相信一切有盡頭
沒有甚麼可以永垂不朽 ...
不過
永恆與否其實並沒有我們想像得如此重要
即使緣份沒有盡頭 生命還是有盡頭
在有生之年 在緣盡之前
好好珍惜 不是已經足夠麼?
由方大同重新演繹王菲的 <紅豆>
還沒好好的感受 雪花綻放的氣候
我們一起顫抖 會更明白 什麽是溫柔
還沒跟你牽著手 走過荒蕪的沙丘
可能從此以後 學會珍惜 天長和地久
有時候 有時候
我會相信一切有盡頭
相聚離開 都有時候
沒有什麽會永垂不朽
可是我 有時候
寧願選擇留戀不放手
等到風景都看透
也許你會陪我看細水長流
還沒為你把紅豆 熬成纏綿的傷口
然後一起分享 會更明白 相思的哀愁
還沒好好的感受 醒著親吻的溫柔
可能在我左右 你才追求 孤獨的自由
有時候 有時候
我會相信一切有盡頭
相聚離開 都有時候
沒有什麽會永垂不朽
可是我 有時候
寧願選擇留戀不放手
等到風景都看透
也許你會陪我看細水長流

有些東西是永恆的
不知道大家還記不記得
很久以前有一個鑽石廣告是這樣說的
鑽石恆久遠 一顆永留存
鑽石是否永恆 - 我不知道
我只知道 - 當萬物鉛華盡洗時 只有時間恆久不變
*
上次丟了電話 我第二天就買回一台新的
今天在屯門舒適堡弄丟了我的手錶
我想應該是我不小心把它遺留在儲物櫃裏
當我走回頭時 儲物櫃已經有人使用了
我只好留下一張 memo ...
妄想下一手的儲物櫃使用者能夠拾到並交回接待處
當我想到上次丟了電話給人拾到後拔電話卡的情況
想到現在誰還會這麼笨拾"金"不昧...
(雖然那隻手錶並不貴重.. 但我永遠也再買不回 82/1000 的多啦A夢機械錶)
就 哭 得 很 厲 害 . . .
我甚至對自己說 - 以後都不戴手錶了
但幸運地
下一手的儲物櫃使用者真的拾回了我的錶 並交回接待處
the watch itself is not expensive
but it contains lots of treasurable memories of mine
i was really happy when i get it back
很開心
*
原來 失而復得的感覺
是這麼的教人興奮
我想
如果那隻是 agnes b 或 rolex ...
我會不會這麼幸運... ?
我想信 有些東西是永恆的
我相信 有些東西是永恆的

Gary 生日快樂
