Two Thousand Acres of Sky[Diary] 1 Dec - a pointless entryCame back from a friend's birthday party. It was good, tho a bit expensive. Sometimes I do wonder why (some) guys like to get into 'fight', over girls, over money, over whatever... Actually I don't mind observing these fights, I find them a good opportunity to study 'mankind'. However I didn't wish to observe any of that when I walked back home, as u can expect on every Friday/Sat night in central London. Pacing through staggering crowds at Leicester Sq., Soho, then Oxford St., it's pretty clear that people are out and about making it a fun night.. Fire engine, ambulance, police car racing thru with siren wailing, strangely all of which made me feel a bit safer. I chose the main roads and 15 minutes later I got to the train station. Great, the only people I can see are homeless.. 20 minutes later I'm on a road with no cars, no people, no flashing lights, no empty bottles broken glasses, not even any sound.. Strange feeling.. I feel that there is something, it's just waiting to happen. I took me longer than usual to get home, maybe just the heels. This is turning into a strange entry, as the day in general. It's rather pointless but I'll just write on.. In the morning, I had one of the most strange and disturbing dreams, which last through my alarms, and continued after I woke up and replied a text message. Finally I got up, with pains in my shoulders carried over from last night, took a shower, thought I had to go to the post office so I did. Put my cheque for the rest of the year in the post and I forgot to buy envolop for the application form. So after printing off the form I went on the hunt for another post office as I didn't want to return to the old route. Unfortunately it was a mistake, as finding a post office in the middle of a 'commercial' area is proven not an easy task. Everyone I inquired made it sound as if it's just at the next corner, in fact, it was more than half an hour later when I finally found one, together with a queue of more than 20 people. Then I found myself suddenly on Oxford Str. I saw Ann Summers across the road, and I decided to buy a birthday present for the birthday girl from there... After cruising around the shop, I had the urge to ask them if I can work there. In that case, I can be in there quite 'ligitimately' as most people there are couples. I have to say, I did not go downstairs.. They have lovely lingerie.. After all those fur love cuffs and candy G-strings, I thought it's time to get back to law. So I got out, was a bit disorientated, as can be expected. I attempted to ask a woman for direction. Her reaction was, let's say, not the most pleasing. Well, what can u expect on a road fuelled with nothing but tourists and carbon dioxide. I don't blame her. Sitting myself down, one guy next to me said he 'just broken up with his girlfriend.' Another guy described to a group how he was ONE minute late to hand in his assessment. A miserable bunch.. Listening to them is even more miserable than reading about EC Law.. The rest of the day unfolded as planned, sort of.. I'm not gonna go into even more details: After hours of waiting and karaoke, it was meals, 'fights', and finally, cakes. Okie, that's the end of this really pointless and long entry. My X'mas Wish List 1
[Diary] 25 Nov - unfinishedPassion Full of desire I lay, the sky wounding me, each cloud a ship without me sailing, each tree possessing what my soul lacked, tranquility. Waiting for the longed-for voice to speak through the mute telephone, my body grew weak with the well-known and mortal death, heartbreak. The language I knew best, my human speech forsook my fingers, and out of reach were Homer's ghosts, the savage conches of the beach. ... This is just part of the poem, but I've decided that it'll do it for now. =) [Diary] 25 Nov - 受刺激和一个朋友聊天,挂掉电话以后发现自己有点受刺激,一点点。 不过还好,还好。 [Diary] 10 Nov - ARTThey say it's the Sale of the Century, well I'm not sure about that, but it did total GBP258 million.. almost doubled the previous record of an art auction. The highest sale was Gustav Klimt's Adele Bloch-Bauer II (1912), a portrait of the painter's mistress, for $88m => GBP 46.1m!! Okay, it looks better than Adele Bloch-Bauer I.. One of the other artists set record on Wed. night is Kirchner, whose work I also quite like. His Berlin Street Scene sold for $38.1 m => GBP 20.1m. I can't quite make out why people inc. me like impressionist and modernist paintings so much, what happens before impressionists came along!? Maybe it's because they're all crazy? Kirchner committed suicide and Klimt's self-destructive.. and Gauguin whose painting named L'homme a la hache sold for $40.3m, sailed from his homeland France to live on the island of Tahti in the middle of the Pacific to escape European civilization.. On a different note tho, Damien Rice's new album's coming out. After the mind-blowing 'O', I hope this one's gonna be another work of genius. I'm struggling to make up my mind whether I should queue hours to get on a huge slide set at the foyer inside Tate Modern tmr.. U see, it's Art. [Diary] 28 Oct - Llama + my dreamAfter a night of way too much good food, I returned home and was watching BBC Breakfast when I came across the terrible story about the fire in California. But what really attracted my attention was the images of the local residents evacuating out of their homes.
Accordingly, "people escaped with whatever possession they could, even a llama." And sure enough, there is a LLAMA! being tried to the driver's side of a SUV which is driving slowly along the road in the midst of the smoke. I have to admit at this point my interests turned completely to this somewhat bizzare looking animal. This is the first time I registered in my brain how a llama looks at, and they look just awesome. About the same height of the car, its tranquil look is hopefully having a calming effect on the people caught in such a frantic situation. However, I simply can't get the image of this striking llama out of my head. So I did a little search and came up with this sweet looking creature chewing coca leaves, and this amazing one at Machu Picchu! Only then did I realise that this animal is orginated from South America, and was domesticated by the Inca 5000 years ago
Maybe I should get my Spanish learning underway now to prepare for my big trip.. hm.. someday...
[Diary] 20 Oct - Midnight FantasyOne of the hardest thing to resist is the smell of food creeping into your room at midnight. Not one night, but almost every night.
It's almost become my habit to wonder every night at what seemingly to be incredibly delicious food. This is torture.
I think I've decided, Greek food is wonderful, Indian food is sensational, and the combination of both results in simply one word:
mouth-watering.
[Diary] 14 October - ChainsThere are always so many chains in one's life. Tangled, or laying parallel to each other, or severed. I'm tempted to break it, but somehow I don't often possess enough courage. Luckily, old chains are mended just when I least expect them. I know why I find little things like this so hard, but I'm ready.
It's supposed to get colder each day. September has ended. But I just realised today how I'm not yet ready for the winter.
The summer's not completed yet.
I want to get melted away in the sun. I want to travel the world with a rucksack and a tent.
Haven't been feeling too well recently. Subsequently I've got loads of work to catch up. But so far so good, the exam is in two weeks time so no need to panic!
When everything's missing but those three words
Love by list
You're new to my list of acquaintances let us list the things we have in common. I like your lists - here is a list of good points I've spotted here is a list of things for us to say, and a list of other lists that will come in handy. I love you, see under list no. 14 for response. You are not responding correctly have you read your lists? Here is a list of things you are doing wrong. Here is another list, you will see some items have been duplicated. I'm afraid I've lost the list with your good points, but it's OK I'm too busy keeping all these lists together. I'm going to have to take you off my list of active relationships, still don't worry I have a list for you we can put you here under failures. Being a love / relationship counsellor isn't easy. So all I could do is to listen while having a chocolate pudding to boost my cheerfulness.
Any break-up is a major blow to the confidence. Fear not. U'll have time to regain your self-confidence.
And you'll be stronger each day.
I know, we are all brilliant at preaching others.
But when it's starting to erode your confidence of being who you are, you know something's not right.
Love should be supportive. Let it be.
