Xbox360 魂归天国

今天拿了一天假,可以在家里好好休息:D
决定把坏了的XBOX360主机拿去修理,
结果没想到竟然...

"你这个没救了,得拿去Service Centre换过一个新的".

还好东西还under warranty,可以直接换个新的,
而且听说"烧坏主机"的问题时有发生,我不是第一人.

新加坡天气太热了啦>_<


我打了电话去mirosoft的客服中心,
他们的服务远比我所期望和预计的来得好多了,
虽然要到14/5才可以换个新的,但是至少他们让我觉得他们很重视我的问题,
并且没有推说问题不出在他们的东西上.

好!~这使我对microsoft的印象改观了很多! =D

是大变,还是小变? :D

最近在找房子住,发现新加坡的房屋租金涨得太离谱了.
找了半年有多,发现租金只有变得更贵,并没有下降的趋势.

所以和PY商量了以后,或许搬回新山住是比较好的选择. :D

可是要搬回新山住,多多少少在交通上和睡眠上要有所牺牲.
而且每天通车于长堤上的辛苦,我们也是知道的.
所以啊,买车就变成必要的行动了.

原本我们是计划了等明年房子车子才一起买的,
只是如今计划有变,所以要先买车再为房子做打算..

下个星期会去靠BTT, 完了以后,希望在一个月内就能拿到新车吧..
:D

累啊

正当我以为一切都归于风平浪静时,
正当我以为所有痛苦都将过去时,
为什么?

为什么问题总是不能圆满?

看开一点吧,总是要如此激励着自己.
一切都会过去的,或许20年,或许40年,
或许很不幸的,我会活多60年呢?

有些东西放不下就是放不下,
任凭它再怎么摧残蹂躏着你, 或许感觉剩下麻木,
或许痛苦早就不能形容这种状态 --
但该做的事,还是要继续.


不是责任,不是包袱,
只是一次又一次的打击与伤害,
肉做的人心,任凭有天大的毅力或耐力,
终究会被拖垮.

所以,如无意外,
下一个可能就是我.

虽然我还在坚持着,可是,好累.

Laputa 天空之城

有些事情是不应该被忘记的, 虽然有太多的事情在干扰着我们.

今天有幸的能够和这些音乐重逢, 心中自然是开心得不得了.

回想当年,第一次看Laputa 时候的激动与感动.
圆的是小时候的梦想 -- 会飞的船,看岛的老机器人, 响彻云霄的法国号...
片断又片断的一幕一幕反复上演.
那是梦, 所以特别痴狂.


Boss' treat on us

On the previous post, I mention that boss has tendered and we gave him a treat of Malay-style-Chinese-seafood, he decided to treat our group a lunch.

Initially we booked a place at No Signboard Seafood, but then later we saw the price list start sweating... keke, help boss save money mah, so we went to Marche instead :D

Heard suki said that the Marche at Suntec also no longer there liao, the one at Heeren has closed down earlier as well, so, is Vivocity the only place that has Marche now in Singapore?

The food was sumptuous, I ate 4 person's worth of food... a Soft-Shell Crab platter, a Calamari Platter, a Salmon Steak, and a cream pasta.

I was so full that day that I didn't even feel hungry at night, and I still manage to finish a bowl of Tontoro Ramen at Ajisen (Taka)~~~

Farewell for our boss

Boss has tendered.

And this boss is not that SBTL i always mentioned, he was a good boss back in the SMU days, and took over us again after SBTL left for another project.

Ok la, he has better career opportunities ma :D We had this farewell of his held at Jalan Kayu's Cafeela, a malay-style-chinese-seafood restaurant.. We chose there because half of our attendees are Malays :D



The aftermaths...
we were too hungry and managed to finish all the foods in 30 minutes' time...




Overall, food not bad, but only too spicy and oily T__T
13 of us, ate 230 dollars only keke

A must-read article

Found it on Suki's blog, and Suki found it on Sharon's blog, where Sharon found it, I've got no ideas :)

I am no Christian, in fact, I can't agree/tolerate/withstand the way some of them expresses themselves, while hurting others without knowing it. There are of course good Christian out there, its just my personal experience that makes me dislike some of them.

The words are inspiring, take God away and imagine it as a mentor of yours, or whatever. To me, beliefs are from the heart, not from God.

PY与我 1

我要快点把这些事情记录下来,不然有一天会忘得一干二净:D
回忆可以通过很多方式保存下来,既然已经没有办法再回到过去,
那至少,文字可以带来一点一点那时候的感觉 ^o^


当然,我只记录好笑的,
因为那可以作为老了以后百无聊赖时候消遣的话题,呵呵.


我真的很狼狈
那时候是第一次约会, 我紧张到不得了.

发生了很多事,现在已经很多都想不起来了,少数几个印象深刻的...

我开着车,在转上一个停车场的时候忽然死火(那时候驾了两年自动档,才刚换回去手动档).
在街上等交通灯的时候又死火了一次.

在这之前,通常一个星期才死一次火的 -_-

然后,带她到一间咖啡座吃下午茶,我叫了一个Croissant来吃,结果因为紧张过度使力不当,在手起刀落的那一刹那,Croissant就整个飞奔出我的控制范围,做了720度的回旋后完美的掉在地上 -_-

我以为这种事情只有在小说或电影里才会发生 -_-

PY大事纪3

话说有一天我们要从新加坡回新山
那是一个星期五的晚上,我们已经三个星期没有回去了..
人很多..

在过了关卡后,我们就在170那里等车,
并有了以下的对话...

VT: 哇!我们这个星期已经有好几个月没有回去了.
PY: 对咯.
VT: *自己察觉到有问题* 我刚才说什么?
PY: 你说我们这个星期已经有好几个月没有回去啦.
VT: 你听得懂?
PY: *恍然大悟* 对喔,我竟然听得懂!
VT: 那是我们有默契啊,哈哈哈...

过后...

VT: 今天人很多,BUS很少咧.
PY: 对咯,你刚刚在楼上过PASSPORT那里有没有看到, 塞车塞到几够力一下.
VT: 对咯,很塞咧.
PY: .... 我刚才讲什么?
VT: *恍然大悟*对喔,楼上是走人的,哪里来的车.
PY: 可是你听得懂是吗?
VT: 对啊对啊,哈哈哈哈..
PY: 我们今天是怎么啦,一直讲错话.
VT:换个角度想,我们还听得懂彼此在讲什么,已经很厉害了:D

Hallelujah



This is what I called voice from heaven.

The reason I came across this clip -- Kurt Nilsen. A very much underrated Norwegian Idol, the first winner of the World Idol..

Forget his looks (you can identify him with his opened teeth and hobbit-like appearance, but thats the appearance only), he has one of the most beautiful vocal I have ever heard from a guy. He begins singing in 2:04, and its as if I'm brought to heaven already :D

He has a clean voice, but not high-pitch and girly-like. His voice is filled with feelings, amid tactics.

Never mind what the lyrics is singing about, I'm no Christian nor Catholics, just appreciate good music :D

Candle in the wind



I have never been able to appreciate Elton John's songs, not until a few days back when I came across a TV ad about a compilation album of his.

The vocal was soothing, deep, and emotive -- something I failed to notice when I was a teenager.

And so memories crept back and I just couldn't forget "Candle in the wind (1997)", the tribute to Princes Diana on her tragic death. I remember my parent sitting in front of the television, eyes filled with tears as they watched Sir Elton John sang this at her funeral.

Till then, I only thought, Awww, its just a nice song, why the big fuss?

Not now anymore, I can't stop my emotions from flowing, Elton John's vocal was so touching, so what if he's gay? He's greeeeaaaaatttt! :D

Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
You called out to our country
And you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven
And the stars spell out your name

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England's greenest hills
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend ever will

Loveliness we've lost
These empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always carry
For our nation's golden child
And even though we try
The truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through the years

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England's greenest hills
Your candle's burned our long before
Your legend ever will

Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
Goodbye England's rose
From a country lost without your soul
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion
More than you'll ever know

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And you footsteps will always fall here
Along England's greenest hills
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend ever will

PY大事纪2

那是一个夜黑风没有的晚上.
很热,我和PY在客厅看电视.

U频道正在播一出中国纪录片.
以下是我们的对话:

PY: 你不是很喜欢看这种纪录片的咯?
我: 喜欢是喜欢啦,只要不要像那个"再说长江"那样催眠就好了.
PY: 我陪你看咯,这个"张赛通西域"是讲什么的?
我: *脸上三条斜线* 张赛?
PY: 你不懂这纪录片叫"张赛通西域"咩? i周刊讲的.
我: *强忍笑意* 张赛?
PY: *察觉到事情不对劲*有什么问题吗?
我: 你记得我们中学的时候读过这个"张赛"吗?
PY: *忽然兴奋起来*有咩有咩? 什么时候?
我: 有啊,这个"张赛"可伟大啦,他可是开拓了丝绸之路的人啊!
PY: 哇!那现在丝绸之路在哪里?
我: 丝绸之路只是一个路程,从这个城市通到下个城市酱...只不过..
PY: 不过什么喔?
我: 我印象中开拓西域丝绸之路的...叫"张骞(qian1)"喔...
PY: 什么张骞?
我: 喏.. 不是"赛", 是"骞"..
PY: 那个字不读"赛" 咩?
我:赛你的头啦T__T

PY大事纪 1

不是我黑心,不是我没良心..
只是发生了那么可爱的事情,一定要记录一下,
不然老的时候就没有什么好回忆的了...

先说最近发生的事情..


今天早上,因为前一天晚"大富翁8"玩得很迟,PY赖了很久才决定起来.
迷迷糊糊的她换好衣服了就准备出门.
我和她在电梯里闲聊..
忽然发现不对劲..她怎么没戴眼镜?

以下是我们的对话:

PY: 今天好累喔,整个人迷迷糊糊的.
我:我问你一个问题啊..你今天是不是戴隐形眼镜?
PY:??? *疑惑的看着我.摇摇头.
我:那..你的眼镜呢?
(此时电梯到一楼了)
PY:啊呀!~~~~~~~~我竟然忘记戴眼镜!
我: *笑到没有力,按了六楼回去*
PY:难怪我觉得今天看东西怎么蒙蒙的,我还以为我太累了!~
我: *还在笑*
PY:不能讲出去喔,不然我杀你灭口.
我: 不行,我一定要写在BLOG上面

The 5 things that I have learnt from upgrading a programming language

We begin using Visual Studio 2005 for the new project, and this is what I found out thus far...

1) If it is a bug, it will still be a bug
VS 2005 does not fix your bugs in VS 2003. It is a programmer's job to uncover bugs, not the compiler's. When we migrate from VS 2003 to VS 2005, we should keep in mind that we will need to review the codes we have written, as whatever bugs in the original version, once migrated over, will still be a bug.

2) There IS a reason to migrate to VS 2005
Take this for example, in VS 2003/2002 we make use of AppSettings in the application's configuration file to store system-level settings. It is one of the more primitive way to create dynamic application. However, we should NOT be using AppSettings anymore in VS2005, since they have already introduced a new concept called ConfigurationManager and ConfigSections! Although VS2005 still supports the use of AppSettings, shouldn't we be upgrading to something more efficient?

3) Keep things simple
Amazed by all the fancy stuffs VS2005 got to offer, I was, for some time, trapped in a dillemma of whether to stick with the old design, or refactor the whole thing and start from scratch. Lesson learnt: If you start a new project, try out all the fancy stuffs first. If you are migrating from an old project, stick to the old stuff, since most of them are still usable.

4) The web is no longer a pure web
ASP.Net Ajax Extension... and even ASP.NET's built in membership provider and profile management has saved tons and tons of codes for me. However, many programmers still write their own, its not that they do not want to use these things, its that it is still relatively new here (and refer to point 3). However, the trend in ASP.NET programming style is that web postbacks will be hugely decreased and web applications will work towards the likes of a windows application.

5) Visual Studio is expensive
Do not get me wrong, I didn't pay a single cent for the developer's copy of VS 2005. However, if we want to up a level towards Teams Foundation Server (the solution to multi-developers environment and project team management, in which I have seen the demo, was the biggest improvements of Microsoft products), the price got us shell-shock. Why pay over 10k for a team server? We decided to stick with SourceSafe 6.0, which was at its own standards, buggy and vulnerable...

Woohooo!~~~~~~恭贺第一百篇

没想到四月就达成了写一百篇部落格日记的愿望:D
那就希望能够再接再厉,朝200篇迈进!~~

(呵呵,又赚到多一贴了:D)


恭喜我自己~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

连智恒 记

不要问我什么是"连智恒 记",
我其实和你一样搞不懂.
只是Steven竟然开始写小说了,无论如何都要支持一下.

简单的介绍,Steven (也就是宏义)是我以前在SINGTEL的同事.
是好人一个,可是也是一个你绝对不会想象他竟然会去写小说的人..

Steven有个绝招,就是面对镜头可以100%时间都不笑.
他有个老婆,我们都叫她作Jenny 大嫂.

除此之外, 就是他的小说部落格啦:
http://deadnovel.blogspot.com

受不鸟啦~~~

莫名其妙的病还没有好:(
上个星期回JB, PY家里的人又生病了.
她妈妈感冒咳嗽结果除了传染给小瓜们之外,
连我也遭殃.

真奇怪,PY的抵抗力真那么好,每次回去都是我中招她却没事T__T


昨天一天在公司几乎什么都做不下,因为太辛苦了.
今天决定放自己一天假在家里睡饱饱 ~__~
哪知道,现在就已经起床来了.
哈哈哈...


好啦,休息就是做自己喜欢的事情,等下要去吃一顿好的来犒赏自己一下:D
受不鸟啦~~~ 连痰都是暗绿色带血丝的>_<

Saw this on suki's blog :D

There's a 71% Chance That You Need Therapy

You almost certainly need therapy. And there's nothing wrong with that.
Lately life has not been easy for you. Why not let a therapist help you sort things out?





You Are the Ego

You take a balanced approach to your life.
You definitely aren't afraid to act out on your desires - even crazy ones.
But you usually think first. Morals drive you as much as hedonism does.
You've been able to live a life of pleasure... without living a life of excess.

环保与政府

我不是环保份子,但也不会蓄意破坏环境.
我不能没有冷气,因为我会一直不停的流汗.

可是我要说的是,新加坡政府切切实实的在环保出一份力.
虽然有人会说,每个月只腾出一天进行无塑料袋日,
其实只是杯水车薪,并且不会有太大的效用,
但是--有什么事情不是从小处着眼再慢慢扩展开来的呢?

小小的苗在慢慢的长,国人的环保意识不是一天之内就能养成的.
至少政府肯出力,人民,尤其是新加坡的人民,
一定会乖乖听话.

虽然未必谅解,但至少照着做,有天渐渐习惯了要保护环境,
着眼力度就自然可以再加强了啊.

反观大马,在那里长大的这些年里,只有看到破坏,没有建设.
堆积如山的垃圾,政府归咎于人民处理不当,
去年发生的百年水灾,政府归咎于新加坡过度开发..
什么事情都把责任往其他人/国家身上推,
要如何进步?

昨天在COLD STORAGE买东西的时候,
已经开始看到有人在买环保购物袋,看了就觉得感动.
虽然还是有位大叔和他老婆在高声的用英语讨论
"这种袋子怎么之后一种颜色?耐不耐?哎哟还是PLASTIC好啊!"

排队等着还钱的时候,看到我前面的一对夫妻,
要求把所有的物品(冷藏和家庭用品)都放在一个袋子,
虽然他们没有买购物袋,至少为地球省了两个袋子.

不要小看他们省下的这两个袋子,
排在他们后面的我也跟着那么做,就省了一个袋子...
后来我发现,我后面的那为大叔也如此交代收银员.

小小的举动是会有影响作用的喔 :D

阿妹

那天逛CD店的时候,正巧播着阿妹精选集里的歌.
短短的十五分钟里,PY和我都有一样的感觉 --
我们都曾经被阿妹的歌感动过,都曾经在熟悉的旋律中找到慰籍.

多少个当学生的晚上,多少个难过伤心情绪无法抚平的晚上.
近乎理所当然的把"张惠妹"当成一定会陪伴在旁的,
可能不只我一人.

注意到阿妹,始于对雨生的支持.
在雨生"两伊战争"专辑中合唱"最爱的人伤我最深",
那时候便觉得她的歌声原始中带着很饱满的情感 --
可以用惊为天人来形容吧.

然后就开始了 "Bad Boy", "姐妹", "哭不出来", "原来你什么都不要"...
等等等...

都觉得还好.
直到那一个晚上,自己一个人驾车从PY家回自己家的路上.
午夜12点多,空空的马路,很有Feel,
收音机传来阿妹上海演唱会演绎的"剪爱",
两串眼泪就这样无声无息的流了下来.

阿妹天生就是属于舞台的.

然后, 走了雨生, 来了小虫.
依然支持的买了"我可以抱你吗?"
可是总觉得少了什么.

少了感觉.

整张专辑最喜欢的"无悔",现在回听起来依然动听,
可是无法撑起整张专辑.

后来就断断续续的对阿妹的歌产生了抗体 --
不是不好听,而是听不久.
直到最近静下心来, 听着别人一遍又一遍地翻唱着她的歌,
才赫然意识到自己错过了多少.

所以"记得", "我恨我爱你", "我要快乐" 等等等...
重新占据我的脑海.
那年在高速公路上一边听歌一边流眼泪的感觉又涌了上来.

(题外话,要一边驾车一边流眼泪是很考功力的,
我只有两次这样的经验,另外一次是听王力宏Live版的"Mary Says")


好的声音是经的起时间考验的.
好歌也是如此.

Cleuttered?

Oh boy... looks like I've got too many things on my mind liao >_<


Your Mind is 74% Cluttered

Your mind is quite cluttered. And like most clutter, it's a bunch of crap you don't need.
Try writing down your worst problems and fears. And then put them out of your mind for a while.

四月 12, 2007

我的遗嘱

想想..写这种东西好像很不吉利.
只是最近觉得,如果真的有一天不小心走了,
不想为身边的人带来太多的不便,还是安排一下比较好.

安排并不代表觉得自己大限一到,
转个角度想,其实好像如此交代,可以省却大家的许多麻烦:D


1) 存款中不论多少,一律五五对分给PY和我家人.
2) 和PY生活的房子里的所有物品的所有权,除了以下提到的,都归她所有.
3) 如果买了房子,车子或其他资产,都归PY所有.
4) 家里的XBOX360, 吉他,蓝球和衣物等全归我家人所有.
5) 手上的现金不论多少全归PY.
6) 我的网站等网络相关资源, 就让它自然到期并关站.


在此,还希望各位朋友..
如果有天我真的走了,
上来这个博客,还有使用我的MSN,把这消息传达给大家.

=D

Miraculously -- I'm ok now

After some resting and a quick 1-hour nap during lunch time, I've woken up feeling afresh!~~~

My head is not spinning, and my mind's been clearer than this morning :D

Wahahahahahahahaahhhahahaahhaaha, good ah!~

Grrrr -- My condition is worsening

Monday, I was on MC, and I couldn't do anything but just lying on the sofa at home waiting for time to pass by. My throat was burning, the air I breath tastes like fire... I just couldn't think nor act to anything...

Tuesday, I came to work thinking I would be better. The antibiotics were working their way through my body system, I drank plenty of water and avoided oily food. At night, I couldn't stay in an air-con room for more than 10 minutes, my phlegm became greenish.

Wednesday, which is today, I woke up with a freaking headache. I proceeded to work, which is why I'm blogging this now -- My head is not pain anymore, however, I felt the nausea and uneasiness of being sea-sick, while my legs are firmly planted on concrete ground >_<

I couldn't walk straight, I see the world spinning around me, yet I have a clear mind T__T OMG, tell me whats wrong...

四月 10, 2007

热死人了

最近的太阳很毒.

毒完了以后,下午还会莫名其妙再下一场雨.

所以人们开始生病.



是我们让地球生病了吧,
所以地球也让我们生病.

嘴上整天嚷着要环保的人,每天躲在冷气房发表伟论.
那些所谓的绿色份子,有多少人是真心希望地球好起来的?

我们都在破坏环境, 环境也在慢慢的破坏我们.
什么时候这样的战争才会结束呢?

或许有天人类倒下,大自然才会松了一口气;
或许有天人类找到更适合居住的星球,就会更肆无忌惮地破坏它.

看起来道貌岸然的人啊,你究竟做了什么来拯救这个世界?
说了很多吧?做了,又多少呢?

热死人了,病都还没有生完,好像又要倒下去了.

四月 09, 2007

你自己想

读了"重力小丑"后,印象最深刻的一句话莫过于"你自己想."

其实很多事情都很简单,偏偏人类是极度喜爱去简单化,
并一味地钻入牛角尖里自得其乐的一种生物.

书中主角的父亲遇到了一个难题,在人生的分叉路上,
哪一条路都得一辈子走下去 --
这时候,他没有办法拿定主意.
于是便想起要问问神明的意见.

那个当下,他立刻做了决定,
并为自己所做的决定而感到安心,一辈子的安心.

神明告诉他的那句话便是"你自己想".

为什么要自己想?
人,喜欢把事情复杂化,当问题饱和到一种自己无法负担的状态时,
人便会产生依赖性.
产生依赖性的结果便是将责任都推托到另外一方.
自己的事仿佛就变成了别人的事.

这种情况很常见 --
自己明明做不了决定,于是便去询问好友的意见.
好友给了意见以后,你硬是要加上一句:
"你说的喔,如果这决定是错的话你就惨咯."

给意见的是他,采纳意见付诸行动的是你.
为什么错的人是他呢?

当事情不如预期中进展,遇到麻烦时候,
有多少次我们曾经说过:
"都是你害的啦!提什么烂方法--"

既然对方提的是烂方法,为什么还要采纳?
采纳烂意见的人不是更烂吗?

想想也觉得好笑,神明应该是最可怜的吧.
整天都要给信徒们投诉 --
您要我做的决定是不对的
您昨天给的号码没开啊

你自己想.然后自己决定.
最后,再为自己的行为负责.
不要再那别人当借口.
好日子便会来的啦.

四月 06, 2007

一定行

不知道是不是一定行.只是心中决定了要做的事情就一定要尽力去完成.
至少尽力过,即使不成功也能安慰自己"你已经尽力去尝试了".

最怕的是遗憾,遗憾很恐怖.
"早知道就去做了."
"早知道就不要做了."

因为给了自己一条退路,所以遗憾起来可以理直气壮.
这种心态,很恐怖.

所以,当我决定要鼓足干劲全力冲刺的时候.
心上所涌起的力量是真的吓了我一跳 --
我从来不知道原来人是可以那样激励自己的:D

因为这种事情,即使成功也没有多少人会在意.
失败的话倒是会有很多人站出来和你说
"当初不是和你说了行不通的吗?"

没关系,一定行.
至少不行的话,因为这次都没有和谁说起,
所以就没有人会来泼我冷水啦.


要做什么?
其实也不是什么惊天动地的事情.
只是要在博客上记载下来,复活节的这一天,
或许会改变我..

也或许终究不会有什么改变.

Am I a tortured genius? :D

You Are 69% Tortured Genius

You are smart. Brilliant in fact. And while it's a blessing, it's also a curse.
Your head is filled with everything - grand ideas, insufferable worries, and a good deal of angst.

曹格 -- Superman

购买这张专辑的心情是复杂的.

我其实试听了整张专辑, 其中也只有"背叛" 让我听了鸡皮疙瘩掉了一地, 久久欲罢不能. 其他的歌,就还好.

直到suki 和我在网上youtube那里找到了很多他的现场演唱, 整个人除了被震慑之外,还下定决心一定要买下这张专辑.

其实那也只是圆了自己所许下的一个愿望 -- 2007年,对于好专辑一定要一路挺到底.

最耐人寻味的还是原版专辑已经找不到了,我竟然还误打误撞地买了限量版专辑 ~__~

仔细聆听了以后,其实我还是觉得"背叛"最好听. 遗憾的是"梁山伯与茱莉叶"不是收录在他的专辑中. 曹格声音特质中感人的部分是他适当地投入感情,并且非常完美地运用了他高亢的音域,从男生的角度诠释女性的心情,所以格外动人.

所以,我更喜欢他现场演唱时候的感觉. 虽然偶尔跑拍, 虽然偶尔音还飘了一下,可是感觉更贴近完美.

在专辑中有很多曹格的写真, 养眼程度不在话下.只是这种专辑,应该好好地在一个安静的夜晚慢慢地反复聆听. "一把连天使都嫉妒的好声音",不是盖的.

四月 04, 2007

我要快乐

我要快乐,我要能睡得安稳 :D


今天的DEMO结束了以后,下个星期如果没有意外的话就要去上课了.
总觉得最近被这个DEMO搞得很焦头烂额. 浪费时间之外还没有投资回报..
不过总算是挨了过去,现在就好好享受剩下几天的上班时间吧:D


我要快乐,是因为最近实在很不快乐.
不快乐,工作就没心情.可是现在不同了.
我很MOTIVATED,难道真的是因为这个死人DEMO?
哈哈:D

美人与香味

我只能说,She just took my breath away.

早上的公车上,无聊地翻着刚买的i-周刊.
忽然有个女的上车来.

我认的出她,通常如果我迟到而搭到这辆公车的话,
就会遇到她.

她很美,很有气质.
而且,很香.

香的未必是美人,但美人一定要是香的.
这是我发现的道理.

今天的公车比较空,她就在我身旁坐下.
一股浓浓的香味扑鼻而来,而且,不是香水.
那味道很像是一种沐浴乳的味道,所以闻起来扑鼻而不熏鼻.

我没能转头仔细欣赏她,那会揭露我其实是个色狼.
只是啊,单是用眼角偷瞄到她低头沉思的样子,
呼吸就瞬间急促了起来.

长长的头发垂下,白色女装衬衫,
米褐色及膝窄裙...
和手上的结婚戒指.

她的先生一定很幸福,
我听过她和她先生的通话,
她的声音很好听,甜而不腻.
啊,美女的一切都是美的.


转头看看我身旁,哈哈.
我有个不逊于那美人的女友.
声音比她有过之而无不及的甜度.

我大概永远也不会忘记这一天.
看到一个美女,反而更珍惜我身旁的那个美女.
最美最香的那个美女 :D

重力小丑

<重力小丑>让我看了两个星期才看完,大低是因为看了很辛苦的关系.

好几个晚上读着读着就不小心睡着了,不是因为它不好读,而是因为枝节的繁杂与节奏的缓慢而导致的.

说实在的,故事的内容与情节的铺排其实不逊于<死神的精确度>一书.问题是在于看的人是否有耐心看完.

而对于我来说,或许是因为早知道结局是如何了,早知道作者故意留下的线索(注:伊坂的小说都带有很浓厚的推理色彩)是作为什么用途和怎么用法了.所以读起来才兴趣缺缺.

纵火案只是个引,却贯穿全书.如书里主角说的,"火代表了重生",可是面对不堪回首的人生,要如何才能"浴火后重生"呢?

在书里,主角"泉水"是个普通的上班族,个性非常的鲜明(这也是伊坂的作品吸引人的地方) -- 不喜欢半途插手一件事,喜欢胡思乱想,喜欢解迷的一个男人. 泉水在书里的形象被塑造成一个"渴望在平凡中成就不平凡,却只是停留在想象阶段的普通人".

泉水的弟弟才是全书的关键,"春"的形象非常立体切矛盾,却因为这样而美丽丰富.他所拥有的潜伏性强迫性格让他凡事都"趋吉避凶","一丝不苟",如果看到某些东西不在控制之下或乱成一团变会"受不了".

然而,他却拥有极高的艺术天赋与一张俊美得几乎让所有书中设定的女性人物都为之神迷的脸庞; 他并不是泉水的亲弟弟,也正因为知道自己血液里背负着错误与罪孽的因子,他的行为一开始就不能用逻辑来判定.

跳开了逻辑,随着春的行动的泉水似乎更快乐了,更知道自己要做什么了.

虽然一早就料到了结局,可是还是很开心作者并没有回到现实并给予一个政治正确的结局.伊坂做了一件我觉得很对的事 -- 他把结局设定成"我们大家都渴望的结局",而不是"现实世界里应该要有的结局".

因为这样,所以精彩.
