太委屈... :'(

今天諸事不順... 首先,回到了巴黎時間... 睡不著,有點納悶... 打算給某人燒dvd,讓他可以看英文字幕的黃金甲... 結果試了好幾次都不成功,每次燒到一半那個燒碟機就把碟嘔出來... 我才發現我的燒碟機壞了... 還浪費了我好幾張碟... 很生氣...

起床後,把自己拉出房間,打算出去走走順便交上網費,結果校園卡的錢被扣掉了整整100元 ,電腦卻顯示沒有交費... 於是又要再走一次去理教. 那個人說要先在1158室開證明,然後再到1353室調度室跟那個負責人解釋,我的那100元才可以加進去... ok,於是我決定為了那'大拿拿'100元上山下海... 結果是,放假了,那兩個室都沒人... 我的100元拿不回來,還要假期回來不能上網... 於是只好又加100元進我的帳戶... 那我今天無原無故的少了100元... 回來之後還不知道能不能拿回我那已經交過的錢...

算啦,反正北大的電腦系統一向都好不到哪裡... 只好認命了... 回房間時打算找個司機送我去機場,結果找不到... 回到房間,放了衣服近洗衣機,結果洗完了忘了去拿... 記得的時候,衣服已經被人放在烘乾機上... 真的不知道要再洗一次還是怎樣...

然後就跟娟娟去吃飯,但是身上沒有零錢,要他幫我付... 連咖啡也是他請我的... 慚愧... 回家的路上還要看到某人打訊息罵我,叫我回家,讓他發脾氣... 真的是氣死了... 很久都沒有這麼大的委屈感了... 氣得大步大步的走回家... 娟娟對不起... (之後吵到甚麼樣,真的不想提... 從來沒有在吵架時,佔過下風的我,今天真的有點失利... 看來是技術生鏽了...)

阿阿阿阿阿阿... 今天怎麼這樣... 唉,我還是早點睡,希望明天不會那麼黑了...

too many absurd ideas...

exams are finally over... and i am still in beijing, basically doing nothing but spending a whole lot of money and getting more and more useless stuff... and with all the time around, i have come up with more and more absurd ideas on how to spend this time here before i go back home... ideas are as follows:

1. grow some tulips. tulips are my favorite flowers, and i think this is the only one thing that i have not stopped liking or grew tired of. i remember tulips are pretty cheap here in beijing, but they tend to die shortly after blooming. i want to see if i can plant a tulip on my own, a different breed which lasts longer, and in more appealing color. so i researched online just now (yes i am too bored!) and i think it would be perfect if i can grow some single late tulips in pink or some spring green viridiflora tulips. maybe i will research more tomorrow morning and then i can go to the flower market and try to make it work.

2. go to the school gym and take a hip-hop dancing or belly dance class. i was doing some "exercise/moves" today when i saw the person in the mirror (that's me) is basically making ugly wiggles with arms and legs that doesnt even look remotely coordinated. so maybe i should take dance classes to save my pathetic body parts. but why choose hip-hop or belly dance i really don't know.

3. take up "feng shui" or "i-ching" or astrology or tarot or any other superstitious field of study. i have always believed in fortune-telling, and so i might just stop listening to what other "fortune-tellers" tell me and see for myself. my mom taught me a lot already, but i need to learn more. and when i gained enough knowledge/wisdom, i can use my expertise to "help" some of the rich people i know from here in beida and then make them pay me a lot of money. then i can be a self-made millionaire just like "mr. so man fung". that man is a genius!!

4. try out everything on the "rabbit" korean take-out menu. been ordering the same things again and again and refused to try new stuff. time to see if i can survive on just lettuce and kimchi-related stuff.

aahhh, i'm finally sleepy. yay!! after so many hours of being wide awake, i can stop typing random sh*t and go sleep!! *yawns*

The Gift by Stanley Huang

禮物 The Gift


我還記得他
留下來的疤
現在的他還會想我嗎
三月第五天
二十歲那天
Johnny決定從此離開我身邊
我ㄧ次ㄧ次
用墨鏡掩飾
不讓他羞恥
他寧願消失
不願再給我
流淚的日子
他說
別哭
我們到這裡結束 或許都忘掉 對我比較好
他說
別哭
分手是給我的禮物 或許傷口 很快就會好

記得那一天
淚在他的臉
不敢靠近只是站在我門前
我ㄧ次ㄧ次
用墨鏡掩飾
不讓他羞恥
他寧願消失
不願再給我
流淚的日子
他說
別哭
我們到這裡結束 或許都忘掉 對我比較好
他說
別哭
分手是給我的禮物 或許傷口 很快就會好

還會痛也好
至少我知道
還活著的味道
選擇原諒
對我們都好
Johnny
別哭
我們到這裡結束 或許都忘掉 對我比較好
Johnny
別哭
分手是給我們的禮物 愛不完美 都是我不好

01/01/2007

wow, so its already 2007... happy new year!!! it is new year as well as my roomie's birthday, so yay!! it's a new start... i hope things get better (and better) this year :)

looking back at 2006, there are a lot of things i haven't done, or haven't done my best... so i hope i can make amends and do better and give my best in the coming year... well, i say this every year so i don't bother making new year's resolutions again since i don't really take them seriously... i just hope i have a better attitude so things will turn out better...

many things have happened the past few days and i didnt update, due to the slow connection brought about by the taiwan earthquake -- see how fragile our so-called high-tech communications network is actually -- and also the too-much time spent doing nothing but playing windows spider solitaire...

first, there is snow!! snow on the last 2 days of 2006... pictures later cuz the connection still sux... and then i took up the habit of going to church again... and my thesis got approved by my teacher (i only have to make minor amendments)... and my roomie's birthday dinner at friday's... whoo... what a day...



and then exams are coming up... and these are the days i hate... haha...

ps. and i changed the background song from elva hsiao to "kiss me" by sixpence none the richer
