作家

作家

盖文章经国之大业,不朽之盛事。年寿有时而尽,荣乐止乎其身。

因为

不假良史之辞,不托飞驰之势,而声名自传于后。

所以,这样留下痕迹的方式是最有效的。
作家是最聪明的人呀。

Listening

Listening

星期一,我第一次考音乐系的试。

基本上这门可不是那种本科生念的那种。可是,老师们真的给了我一个惊喜。我们一踏入考场,就看见音响器材,和两个很大的喇叭。

我还以为是上一场考试留下来的。

考试开始,翻开考卷,眼睛都了。
Listening Question。

我最后一次考听试好像是华文听力考试耶。
所以,老师就播了一首曲子,要我们以文字来剖析。

然后,这也是我第一次把整本文答卷写完。
太多要我们写,时间却似乎少了点。
却还是有人用了两本文答卷。

梦想

梦想

那天和恺玲聊到我们以后毕业后会做什么时,原来大家都是在他人的期望中建构所谓的“未来”。 我们从荣誉班开始聊起,当初的我们为什么死拚要考上荣誉班?可能是大家一直说,大家都认为会。

如果,我们不修现在的主修科系,我们想做什么呢?

最荒谬的梦想是内心最深的表现?说真的,我们对毕业后的日子感到迷惘,一定要找份安定的工作乖乖地拼命,过个几年,升职加薪,然后大家在新年的时候都开始说你何等成功。真的是想做的事吗?

恺玲一想到她要一直面对数据和电脑,就很厌倦。
她想过学造鞋子。
我也想过念烹饪。

别人会说,我们了。好好的书怎么不去读,想些有的没的。他们说,梦想是拿来的,要实践的是能力范围以内的。

可能是考试期间,总会感到这样的郁闷

世界末日在星巴克

世界末日在星巴克
早上8点30分,我们竟然已经坐在Raffles City的Starbucks,讨论作业。瞧!我们那么阳光的样子!其实照片后面站着方孝孺、杨士奇和吴与弼的。

然后,我们发现,原来“天花乱坠”就是天花板掉下来!
古人好厉害,知道我们有天花板!

然后,在午餐萌起了一个念头。
角色扮演,太好笑了!

亲爱的沁筠抛弃我们约会去。
剩下两个可怜的人面对世界末日来临。
还好,我们已经知道只要10亿欧元就可以买到诺亚方舟的票!

非常庆幸那一天恺玲和我周围没有人。
期待地把polaroid底片的包装打开。

我们以为第一张就能拍了。
咔嚓。

This is not a film.
刚才还笑得那么灿烂。好糗!
大家都了头发。:)

暴风雨之前总是风平浪静

暴风雨之前总是风平浪静

考试之前,我们俩血拼,拼得很开心,拼到三位数。
不要低估女人这方面的才能。

把头发剪了。
和Melvin聊天聊得很开。总是喜欢他帮我剪头发,边聊天。或许,烦恼丝都给他那把剪刀摆平了,聊起天来就比较轻松。今天的他好像心情很好,竟聊起他妹妹的毕业典礼和我去上海的事。特别是上海,好像他比我还期待。哈哈。其实,jeric salon蛮不错的,只是非常奢侈的一个地方。

恺玲来理发店找我之前就打开杀戒,拼出第一个三位数。
后来,单单在PS,我们就败在很多地方。而且,每到一家店,都惹出一些很滑稽的事。太失形象了!那些店员都很善良,只是偷偷地笑,没有大声狂笑。

后来,散步到robertson咖啡座,聊天
我和恺玲的很大,聊特别旧。然后,我们也拍了几张polaroid。很好玩!回到东边,还是找个地方吃点东西,聊过午夜

到了最后,却谈起近来的烦恼。
去吧。

Take 5

Take 5

写论文的日子,没办法好好地写博克。
这个星期该交的都写完后,我要好好地烤个蛋糕。

之前做的是拿破仑,其实是拿破仑蛋糕的其中一层。
这一次我要做一个完整的。

我真的不喜欢烘焙蛋糕,可是我太爱吃拿破仑蛋糕了。

还是比较喜欢煮东西。
自制豆腐还是炖盅汤呢?
啊!红烧凤爪!

再看心情如何,妹妹嚷着要吃brownie啊。

Philippines Contemporary Jazz- Bob Aves

Philippines Contemporary Jazz- Bob Aves

Caught this recital at National Museum yesterday at 3pm. Partly for my music report, haha, but also because i love saturday matinee concerts. It was in conjunction with the Mabuhay! festival, that a few Philippines performing groups came over.

There's even a outdoor one tonight! argh!

Anyway, the response for the recital was really bad, 30 odd people came? Bob Aves was very passionate in advocating the need to preserve traditional music. I totally enjoyed the recital, Bob Aves says it's supposed to be a lecture concert, which he did explain in great details the pieces they performed.

Weird enough, I liked the sound of the kulintang together with his style of jazz. I always thought i would be quite unable to accept this sort of fusion, especially, back then i find pentatonic scales very weird.

Then there was this vocal part, which he he invited Grace Nono to sing. oh man, the first word that came to my mind was 天籁

She sang this song, hmmm more like a chant, translating to, if i am a bird with wings, i'll fly up high and abandon all the sorrows.

Aw. such sweet sorrows.

Julie and Julia

Julie and Julia
This is the one.
Unless Jamie Oliver or David Rocco decides to act and produce any movie, this is the one.

Met Erina and JingYi for the movie on wednesday night.
There is Julie Powell and Juila Child. Julia Child greatly inspired Julie to cook while her husband encouraged her to start a food blog and share her experiences on cooking the 500 odd recipes of Julia Child. Then, at the same time, the story of Julia Child tells us how she started writing these recipes back then.

Oh man, I think Paul Child is damn attractive. HAHA.
Where on earth can you find a husband so supportive of his wife?

Anyway, both Julia and Julie are very comical. Couldn't stop laughing! I simply loved the "lobster killer" part and of course many others which i can't think of now.

Do youtube "Julia Child" and take a look at the cooking show back in the 70s!
Why is it that there are lesser female chef?
