The moments we get together...

Just now while after lunch break, when I search for some of my passed old photos in Flickr, I just realised that haven't complete the post regarding my Penang Trip few weeks ago...

As time goes by... very fast... Its already 3 weeks liao. So let's continue with the story while we had a gathering in one of the most happening place called "Autocity" in Prai.

While we're on the way to Autocity, I feel that there are something strange & Weird. Dragon seems very quiet, everyone inside his car was also quiet too, except the car radio. Get to know from his blog, that he was actually very tired & exhausted. I'm feel so sorry & Paiseh abt that too... Indeed, Driving really need to pay lots of attention. As a driver, I understand too.

We reach there around 7.30pm, get to know from Taugeh that some of our PGHK members was already there. Due to Festive season, Its very hard for us to get a parking lot. Poor Dragon, he had to round here round there then can only found a parking space. While step into [Ice Ice Baby], can saw Motoleng, Motoleng Soh & Motoleng's sister had sitting there already.



Without any delay, we decided to make an order for dinner first. There's so much choices on the menu, I also dunno waht to order, ended up I ordered "Terriyaki chicken Cheese Baked rice" & "Hong Kong Kai Dan Zai dessert". The food there was very nice, Probaly you all may go & try next time when you travel to Penang :)

Mean while, all of our PGHK Listeners also turned up one by one, which is Shua Hu, Ah Tox & Ah Tox Soh, Hainamkepui, Ah Bong & friend, PPP, Wiwiwawa & Tuna. There are total a dozen of us who make up this lovely gathering.

We eat a lots & we also talked a lots... Some of others listeners like Ah Tox, Ah Leng, Motoleng, Hainamkepui & Tuna also take lots of photos with their own cameras. Too bad I didn't have, I might only using my lousy phone camera...




During the middle of our gathering session, I had to go out to start for my mission, which is help to buy cakes for our birthday boys : Dragon, Tuna & Ah Bong. I'm abit lost while I'm out there coz its my first time there & not very sure where is there any cake house in that area. As I decided to turn back to Ice Ice Baby, so lucky I found Swensens located right behind of Ice Ice Baby. There's sure got selling cakes, Ice cream cakes some more... yup yup :P



Beside cakes, Taugeh also brought them some Birthday presents which he's carrying all the way from Klang to Penang. So happy we all can celebrated & have fun together. I believe it will become a sweet memories as well for those who had attend the gathering.

We dismissed around 10pm & we turned back to Dragons house for some rest. We manage to watch a Thai's horror movie called [The Shutter] before going to bed. Its the first time for Taugeh to watch this movie. Although I had already watched it several times, but there's few scence which is still can scared me up... what I can said that this was the best horror movie I had ever watch, not only the effects but the story...

The next day, which is 14 Oct, Its time for me to leave such lovely island Penang. Everthing's resume to normal daily life now. There's a great changed for me after such memoriable Penang Tour, which I started to write my blog by using my broked english to get connected among my dearest Penang Hokkien buddies... Yes!!! no doubt... It's you... who are reading my blog now...hehe :)


Feel glad can get to know all of you from Penang Hokkien. I really look forward also for our upcoming Gathering during CNY 2008 soon. Hopefully may try to spend most of the time with your & my families before I start to continue my studies in Taiwan 2009.

A Tribute to Superstar

Today's weather seem not very good, my mood also... Maybe I had been caught with "Friday blues"? So probaly there's no much to write for today...

I'm try to search some music video clips in youtube to get prepared on which song for me to sing in our monthly Karaoke session @ Kbox on this coming Sunday.

While searching on [Leslie Cheung], and I found the this...





I like his songs very much... It's a must for me to sing his song each time when I visited to Karaoke launge.

I'd been spoken with my collegue during lunch time that most of my favourite idol been passed away... and I had to admit my age is getting older & older liao... sigh!



Anita Mui was also my favourite singer too... She's also gone with Kor Kor the same year 2003. I missed their voice, their song & their concert very much...

I got a friend who really can sing exactly same voice as Anita Mui, Hopefully She'll be joining us this Sunday, so that I can tape down video then post here to share with yours.

It's now started to rain out there... my best wishes to both of them, my beloved Superstar [Leslie & Anita], may them rest in peace at Heaven there :)

Share with yours My favourite song called [Chase]:

Getting Fit.... Start Now

I was so happy when everyone told me that I'd been losing weight recently, not that fat than before liao... hehe! Yup that's true, my weight was start dropping from 78kg to 74kg... Say "Ta Ta" to my 4kg body FATs... :p


3 months ago, I had been went through a regular body checkup at my company appointed clinic. The doctor told me that my BMI result was not very good, It's almost near to overweight's zone... He advice me to lose some weight immediately if not I'll caught by many type of diseases easily infuture...


I can't imagine what would I look like if I didn't listen to him! Probaly I'll be getting fatter & fatter... My body size would like a Japanese SUMO players? What if my "WIRA" (my car of course) can't fit me in anymore... Arrrghh!!! I don't really want all these happend...


Well... what to do... I still young... Or you can laugh at me "Kiasi" or "Kiasu"... No choice, I had to follow what the doctor told me. Since there, I stopped taking any supper, especially my beloved MCdonalds burgers... sob... sob... Each time when I go to online at there, I might drooling like hell while watching others people enjoy their burger mouth by mouth... I was very struggle & keep telling myself: Say No To Hamburgers! End up I just can make an order to a regular cup of Hot Steamed buttered sweet corn & a cup of Ice MILO only.... huu...huu...


Although can seen some results right now, but still not meets my target yet. My Ideal weight would be around 68 ~ 70kg... I keep dreaming of myself whether would I become like this one day:


Yeah I know... It just only a silly dream. I still need to work hard on it... Gambatte ne! Beside no to eat any supper, no Burgers & more veggies, I am now pushed myself harder to get some exercise at lease 3 times a week. So nice that I lived nearby a Reservoir Park. I manage to go for jogging there early morning before go to work at 9am.


I'm really looked forward to see how's the result on myself on next two months, Hopefully I might look nicer while dressed fit during upcoming chinese new year 2008. Wanna Get Fit... so had to start now :)

Foods Battle !!!

Yesterday evening when after work, some of my collegues & I went to Bedok North Market Food Centre for dinner. Lucky we went there early, there's not much people yet, so we can get a table easily. After that some of us take turn to order some food seperately. I walked through nearly all foodstall there, still can't decide what to eat... It's quite a headace for me. Those Spicy Food like Nasi Bryani or Laksa etc, I not dare to eat because I scared I might sweat like just coming out from saunna. While Those Seafood pulak like Ikan Bakar, Pepper Crab or Tiger Prawn... I cannot eat due to I might get allergy... end up just only can choose Chicken & Babi (Pork) nia... very sien...

Suddenly, my eye getting brighter when I found there is a Penang Foods stall infront. YES!!! Thats is what in want, so poor I missed penang food badly... Without any delay, I quickly rush over to take a look on the menu... Of course there's got selling Penang well known [Char Koey Teow] & also some popular [Penang Laksa], [Curry Mee], [Hokkien Mee] & [Wantan Mee]... I am so excited and almost drooling when I look at those... haha :)

So I ordered [Char Koey Teow] & [Wantan Mee] for my dinner... While waiting for my food, I got chance sembang with the Taukeh there. This hawker stall was run by a middle aged couple. The Taukeh Soh was actually Born & staying at Penang for more than 20 years before married to Singapore. Due to a car accident occured few years ago, Her husband (Taukeh) injured seriously, Lucky his condition getting better now, but he had lose his job during the period he staying in Hospital. So they no choise & decided try to run a small bussines as a hawker... I feel so sorry when listen to thier unfortunate incident. Beside that my heart feel so warm & nice, because that Taukeh Soh chat with me by using our most familiar Penang Hokkien dialect, I enjoy very much chatting with them.

Mean while, My foods was ready, I get back to my seat & start enjoy my long waited Penang Delights... hehe :p While we're eating half way, one of my S'prean collegue started asking me a stupid question: "Penang Food & Local (S'pore) Food, which one is nicer?"

Penang Tour - Part III

In my last post I had shared until the dessert house nearby New World Park. So now continue talk about my Penang Trip...


After finished our Dessert, Dragon & I decided to go to 9 Emperior temple nearby for some photo shooting. Surprisingly when I saw lots of vegetarien hawker stall loacted along the street just opposite the temple. Without any delay, I urge Dragon quickly take some photo outside the temple, so that I can continue for my food explorer... I'm curious whether am I a hungry ghost in my past life, who know? because I really can't controlled myself while seeing Foods... haha... Tam Jiak Gui.. :p

I was thingking that Taugeh will be reach PG late of the night, So I decided to buy some supper for him. There's is lots of vegetarien snack which I would like to try, got Pizza, Burger, Rojak & many more... Too bad that my stomach was already full, if not.... hahaha... hope I didn't scared up Dragon... haha :)

Since there is no idea on which place to go later on, so we Patah balik to Dragon's appartment first. Dragon started busy with his work, then I choose to watch my favourite Stephen Chow's old comedy... beside that we also got a chance to watch some fireworks from his balcony because It's Raya eve. After the finished the movie, Dragon's phone rang... Taugeh finally arrive at Butterworth. So we quickly moved towards Butterworth to fetch Taugeh. So poor of him had to traveled so many hours in coach, He's sure very tired then. In earlier, Dragon's even planning to scared Taugeh by ask him to watch a Thai horror movie called "The Shutter", but end up we're all really really tired, end up we go to sleep earlier.


The next day, we're all started to wake up after several alarm buzz from Dragon's mobile phone. Then Dragon fetch us to have some dim sum for our breakfast. There is always crowded with people at the Dim Sum house there. It's hard for us to get a seat. After a while, Taugeh found it then they started to get some order... yum yum... the Dim Sum there was very very nice, I'm also headache while my turn to get order, because there's really so many types to choose... what I like most was "Lor Mai Kai" & typical Hong Kong "Chee Chiong Fun". Beside that I had found that Taugeh also easily get sweat, same as mine, I easily get sweat when I eat food contains chilly & Pepper... so we both individual got some additional funny nickname, Taugeh was [Hot Detector], mean while mine is [ Chilly Detector]... haha :)


After Breakfast, Dragon fetch us to Gurney Plaza for some shopping of course. We had buy some books from Popular bookstore, mean while Taugeh busy with his mobile phone calls... Dragon cannot Tahan & ranked him as our Penang Hokkien certified PRs :)


Our next station will be back to New World Park again, we meet up with Ah Tox for lunch at Old Town kopitiam... I like the environment so much... the place fulled of nostalgic feel. When we reach there, already seen Ah Tox & his wife & also Hainamkepui siting there liao... Before our long chat, We decided to have some foods first since Ah Tox they are not having any breakfast yet.Dragon strongly recommend "See Mut Milk Tea" & "Thick Kaya Toast" to us... the taste is very unique... I like them. Then I order "Chu Qian Yi Ding" noodles sup which served with Egg + Ham. Dragon also like to eat instant noodles too... while Taugeh ordered "Indonesian Damn Hot Curry Rice" haha... I scared myself might sweat & get wet crazily so I didn't dare to try.

During our lunch session, one of the Listener called "Siao Kia" joined us later on. Beside that I'm also found Hainamkepui She's very quiet... very "Soo Boon"... maybe she feel "paiseh" due to we're first meet up in person afterall. Not like our Penang Hokkien "Dai Lou"... Online & Real person almost not much difference, Still very keen in "Kapsiao"... Lucky got him, His joke really bring us lots of Laugh & Fun...hehe :)

Well... Next post, I'll gonna share something regarding our Listener's gathering in Prai.

(Some photos courtesy from Taugeh & Dragon)

Life is wonderful :)

Before continue to my Penang tour's sharing, Juz would like to share something on my passed wonderful weekend.

On Saturday, as usual had to work half day in office. Since there is not much artworks to design, so end up I "eng eng bo tai chee" , get paid to surfing internet, update my blog & watching Stephen Chow's comedy clips in youtube & bla bla bla... haha :)


Afterwork, I need to rushed for my volunteer appointment at Temple nearby my office. I had to follow Venerables & some of my fellow members going to our new Temple located in Punggol (Northen East part of Singapore) for construction site visit. The construction work was very efficien, our new temple was about almost complete liao... Very happy & excited from all of us... finally we got a home... a home for our spiritual...

When we're going up to the top floor of our new temple, which is a columbarium. I like the design & the environment so much, totally no "Geli" at all... Since the "ash" columns were very hot in sales right now & there's is not much left liao... I wish I could get one too, but I just confusse whether Will I be staying in Singapore forever?... Well, no matter how, "May I rest in peace in future" was actually my great wish now... haha :)

At nite around 8pm++, I bring my company laptop to Mcdonald. Since there's got free wifi, so I just ordered a cup of ice MILO, then began to online gmail chat with some of my friends. After when I log in to MSN, Chat with Dragon & Chabour pulak... There's alot to talk, we even chat untill very late... Since I had sit at there for almost more than 3 hrs with just order a cup of drink, I scared I kena complain by Aunty there, so I got to log off & went home ZZZzzzz....

I wake up early Sunday morning, As usual going to Temple nearby for prayer service, at noon time I got to attend Chinese Ochestra instrument class also... Although my whole day's schedule was very rush & tight, but I feel very happy & enjoy to be volunteer, from there I can meet lots of peoples, learn lots of knowledge & got a apportunity to perform too...


Thru the volunteer services, I had found the meaning of life, I'm appreciate so much with every moments & peoples in my life, including my family members, my friends, my buddies and Yes.... It's "you", whoever visited my blog... Thanks to everything which light up my life... life is wonderful :)

Penang Tour - Part II

First of all would like to thanks to my Penang Hokkien Buddies for overwhelming respond on my previous post, so from now on I'll probaly to write my sharing in english, but I'll also may post some my articals subseqencely in mandarin. Hope you'll enjoy reading my blog... hehe :)


Well...Before goes into Penang foods, would like to share more about Dragon's new appartment - Regency Heights. When I first reach to his house, I was attracted by the environment over there, especially the panoramic view from balcony... The air in his house was very cooling, and got a good feng shui too. Just only one word can describe is "Shiok"... hehe :) Too bad I was now short of vitamin S11, if not I'll gonna buy one of the unit there too...

While resting in his "Long Men Ke Zhan", we had watch a series of Gary Chao Ge & Aaron Kwok's concert DVD, besided that we also have a chat with Ah Hoon too. As I was too tired due to can't really sleep well in Coach the nite before, I even fall as sleep while half way watching those concert DVD... Lucky I'm not drooling on his brand new sofa... hehe :)


When the sky turns dark, we decided to have some dinner in town before go to fetch Taugeh in Butterworth Bus Terminal. Thanks to Dragon bring me to vegetarien restaurant located nearby Macalister Road. I like vegetarien food very much... I'm here in Singapore mostly having vegetarien meals everyday. Look at the food pics above, that was what we order for our dinner. The foods there damn nice, price also moderate... next time when visit Penang again can consider to bring my mum to eat at there too.


After Dinner, Dragon called up Taugeh where's his location now? but get to know that Taugeh haven't bypass Ipoh yet... Hmm... Maybe traffic jam at highway there due to Raya Festive. So while waiting, we walked towards New World Park nearby. There was a very nice place, inside got lots of wellknown restaurant located like Old Town coffee house, 600cc & many others. I believe there will be a brand new recreation & makan spots for all penangites.


After a while, Dragon suggest to have some desserts nearby. I'm so excited, I like "Tong Shui" very much too... no wonder I getting fatter & fatter.... hehe :)

Well, since there is so many yummy dessert inside the menu, Its very hard for us to get an order, so we decided to get some recommendation for a staff there, she hardly promote the dessert called "waterchestnut + Egg" to us, then Dragon order Golden Man Tou topped with honey syrup... yum yum... Then my turn to order "Potato Tang Yuan" which inspired by my mum told me before. When all those freshly served on our table, again It's Dragon turn who help me snap some photo before we finished all those... The desserts there was very nice except "waterchestnut + Egg"... that was sucks... not nice at all... so at the end I finished it myself, don't waste food mah...

Wow... Seems that It's already a long post liao.... So I gonna stop here & will share with you all again my next post... stay tune :)

东方花园逍遥游－Penang Tour

当我开始在写这心情笔记时，脑子里都是那几天里的美好回忆，但是相对的心里又会觉得这次写这篇帖子是非常挑战性的，因为我有几位朋友是不谙中文的，所以只得双语并用。友人笑我为何这么辛苦，直接写英语就好了嘛！其实由始至今我这心情部落都一贯保持以中文书写，所以为了迁就大家，就只好豁出去啦！（先声明，我的英语文法是实在有够烂的！如果读了之后感觉怪怪的，敬请见谅）

When i was thinking to write on this post, there were many sweet memories filled up my mind. Due to some of my friend can't read any chinese charactors, I started to feel that this was the most challenged for me to write in both mandarin and english.


由于早前工作繁重的压迫感，当时的心情的确是糟透了，于是决定找一天请假出去走走透透气。因缘就是那么不可思议，正巧得知有一班来自［槟城福建］的听众有举办一个聚会，同时也是好友奕龙的乔迁还有生日之喜，友人双喜临门是的确该前去道贺一番。星期四晚上下了班之后，就赶到车站去乘搭长途巴士直达槟城。

I feel very pressure due to overloaded work load previously, my mood getting bad & bad. So I planning to give myself a break for me to take a breath. As get to know that there was a [Penang Hokkien Podcast] listener's gathering held during Raya season, thus also to celebrate my friend "Dragon" moved in to his new house & advanced birthday. So on thursday nite afterwork, I quickly rush to bus terminal nearby & straight away travelled to Penang.


由于司机漏夜飞车的关系，隔天早上我其实大约早上８点半左右就抵达槟城车站了。由于见距离约定的时间还早，于是就步行到车站附近的九皇爷庙去拜拜并享用素食早餐。当时间差不多9点半之后，想必夜猫友人也应该起身了吧，于是就开始发送手机简讯告知。等了一下子，友人奕龙连早餐也来不及吃，就匆匆赶到车站去了。

I actually arrived in Penang around 8.30am, as It's still early, so I decided walk to the temple nearby to prayer & also having vegetarien breakfast. An hour later, I started to sms my friend "Dragon" to meet up at bus terminal. So sorry when get to know he actually rushed over without having breakfast.


上了车子后我们一起到小贩中心去吃东西，奕龙说这里有个摊位是卖爪哇面的，我的内心一阵欣喜，毕竟我都整１0多年里都没吃过了。眼见桌上那碟热腾腾的爪哇面，还没入口之前，就好像乡巴佬般拿起手机对着美食猛拍一番。饱食一顿后，奕龙就带我到那新开张不久，而且又是北马最大间的Queen'sbay Mall去逛逛。大约中午时分，我们就回到［龙门客栈］－奕龙的新家休息去咯！下会再跟大家分享槟城的美食篇，不要错过哦！

Afterwards we decided to having a breakfast at nearby hawker center. Dragon Said to me that there got a stall which selling Jawa mee, I was excited coz since already 10++years I didn't eat this liao... when the food is serve on table, I snap photo crazily using my HP. After breakfast, Dragon drive me to Queensbay Mall - the largets shopping mall in Penang. Around noon time we back to Dragon new house to take some rest. I'll be sharing something regarding Penang local foods in my next post, so do checked back here more often ok!

我回来了

很抱歉，好久没有发贴了……沉淀了一些日子之后，思绪也平静了许多，这些日子以来，试着将心打开，让自己有更多的尝试与体验，让自己有更多的生活空间。我的网络世界也突然变得更多姿多彩，除了一贯的收听［槟城福建］播客和阅读部落格之外，也开始迷上了［面书FACEBOOK］还有Youtube里头的［怪谈］等怪异节目片段。

前几天的连续假日，于是抽空到槟城去探访久违了的朋友，这一趟槟城之旅可谓收获满满……由于有太多要分享的，所以决定将这充满回忆的心情笔记分期贴上，请大家多多留意哦！

笑着走进生命的每一天

人活一辈子，忧伤是活，开心也是活，为什么不开开心心地去活呢?

即使爬到了屋顶，才发现爬错了梯子，才发现自己原来是想爬到对面的楼顶，那也没有关系，爬下来继续去寻找那把能够爬向对面楼顶的梯子吧，向那个目标出发吧！

不要在原来的屋顶哀伤叹气，抱怨自己，又埋怨他人，应该及时地调整自己的思绪，作好吃苦的准备。不管向上攀登的路有多难，不管岁月如何变迁，只要目标确定了，就要勇敢向前。在攀登的过程中一样也可有怡然的心情，享受过程中的美丽。

如果想继续留在屋顶安于现状，那就要以最快乐的心态来享受屋顶看到的景致，并融入其中，一生开心地活！就让对面们的高楼，成为自己青春的回忆。如果有重新选择的机会，再去构思过程的美丽吧。

曾经有一只小蚂蚁，在地面上苦苦寻觅，想要找一棵大树去安家。因为厌倦了地底洞穴的生活，以及洪水侵袭的恐惧，想到空中去感受星月的照耀，想要和它们近一点，再近一点，能够倾听天地的声音，倾听耳畔的轻风中传来的祝福的钟声，体会大树上空中楼阁里幸福的心情，为了这样一个梦想，小蚂蚁不断地奋斗，不断地打拼。朝阳朝起，染红了天边的一晨朝霞；夕阳西落，带走了白与昼的交替……

终于有一天，小蚂蚁来到一片丛林，每一棵树都高耸入云。究竟该选哪一棵呢？小蚂蚁在树下不断地徘徊，一天、两天……小蚂蚁想，与其这样徘徊，不如尽快选择一棵自己认为最高的那棵树爬上去！于是从树根到树干再到树枝，小蚂蚁几乎穷尽了一生的精力。

可是树很大，遥看着满树的枝繁叶茂，树影婆娑间小蚂蚁流泪了，自己再没有力气去重新选择再来一次创造梦想的渴望。在树叶间躲过风雨如盘，看过鸟儿飞过，听过歌声传来，心境突然开朗起来。小蚂蚁释然了，既然选择了并为之奋斗了，这就足够。因为过程是最美的。低首攀登时不是也有幸福滑过吗？这是小蚂蚁的一生，有遗憾但依然，依然有幸福和充实，因为它曾开开心心地活过。

拥有一份好心情，拥有一颗感恩的心，就像蝴蝶在心中轻轻地飞，最美也最甜蜜！看蓝蓝的天，看白白的云，青青的山，绿绿的水，多姿的世界，善良而可爱的人；看生命中不能承受之轻，以及顽强中彰显的勃勃生机，又是多么释然的幸福啊!

拥有一份好心情，哪怕皓首也有童颜，也依然会美丽动人，年轻而健康！就那样微笑着走进生命的每一天……

如水的人生

人生如水，随着生命的延续而流淌，人生的演义就如同在水面上写字，永远看不清痕迹。

静水的人生是平淡的，平淡的人生往往为世俗的人所接受。因为平淡而无奇，因为平淡而无虑，因为平淡而无争。当你走到了生命的尽头，再回首看看自己走过的路，一路上什么也没有留下，什么也没有值得后人留恋，什么也没有使自己感到欣慰。你唯一能感受的就是白白地来到这个世界，白白地在这个充满神奇的世界走了一回，我不知道这是不是后悔，仰或是弥留在这个世界最后的感叹。

缓缓流动的水，清澈透亮，随着时光的流逝而渐渐变软变弱，然后销声匿迹。可是，它流经过的地方永远是碧绿和茂盛，小草会感激它的滋润，禾苗会留住它的影子，蓝天和白云也会永远记住它曾经的欢乐。缓流的水是平凡的人生，平凡不是平淡，平凡是尝受生活的酸甜苦辣而又将滋味慢慢地融入生活，平凡是平常人家在喜、怒和哀、乐中剔取精华。平凡的人生没有遗憾，没有怨恨，他们以自己微薄的能力为世界做出微小的贡献感到自满和自足。

汹涌澎湃的水，浪花翻滚，显示着强有力的生命。它无坚不摧，无所不能，它把历史的潮水掀起，又将世界文明的浪花洒落；它是生命的主流，是世界前进的主动力，是人类和自然不可缺少的生力源泉。涌水的人生灿烂辉煌，万古流芳，无论世界如何变迁，无论人类如何昌盛，都会留载他的功绩，永远把他的名字刻在心里。

我们在选择人生的同时，要通过一番深思熟虑，理想和目标就是我们的人生观。是宁愿成为一滩死水，把生命交给时光去挥霍；还是成为一条小溪静静地流淌，给大自然以奉献，给人类以回报，给子孙后代以借鉴；或投身入大海，让生命激起浪花，一朵朵浪花即使粉身碎骨也滞留着美好的回忆。这就是人生，如水的人生。

心--累了？

最近，总感觉自己文字越来越退步了，是太累了还是心太散了？是麻木了还是疲惫了？还是文字自己也累了？我不知道。

面对自己的心情篇章，竟一点也读不出感觉来。感觉令人感动和耳目一新的心情故事越来越少了，总是跑不出司空见惯的情节，很多的句子再也长不出新意，就像一张脸，越来越沧桑，却没有越来越成熟。

除了思念，除了心中吐不尽的压力，我真的不知道还能如何用文字来达自己，就算小小的故事也挂着不完美的结局。也许，真的需要一个漫长的过程，才可以让自己的文字脱胎换骨吧。

走着，看着，写着，想着，时快时慢，只是没有停。也许因为有点忙的原因，每天只能困倦地告诉自己必须坚持，让自己相信总有一天阳光会洒在门前，会哄干长久以来心情中所有的潮气。我不知道这样是好是坏，也只能边走边看，只希望能对得起自己，对得起所有关注和支持我的朋友们。

人的心，有时候好大，想得到的东西既多又飘渺，靠近它们，有些却飘远了；心有时候又好小，一些很简单的感觉出现就能让幸福填满心间。我喜欢那些出现在生命里让我感动、感触、豁然开朗的感觉。

我只知道有好多的新朋友渐渐走进我的心情世界，也有一些老朋友渐渐隐去，我一直相信这些朋友，不管我写得好坏，不管我是忧伤还是快乐，始终如一的支持和关注着我，默默地，甚至有时不留只言片语。虽然我的文字不可能天天写满感激，但我的心里却永远不会忘记。没有大家的认可和关注，我也不会有更多的动力写部落格。

如果最近文字创作步入低谷期，我希望不要太长，希望能早点捧给大家更好一点的心情篇章。如果最近真的是麻木到身不由己，我会试着寻找合适的方法扎醒自己，我会加油努力的…… 祝福你，也祝福我自己，一切顺心顺意。

881 狂想曲

昨晚农历七月的最后一天，遍地都是点点的烛光，往高处望下，好像天上的星星都掉下来一般，诡异之余还添几分的浪漫……农历七月过去了，但是881的热潮却不见退散，据知电影票房在昨天还一度突破了３00万大关，可知它的影响力是多么的大……祝福这本土电影在来临金马奖榜上有名、名扬四海……加油！加油！



前天下午特地跑下去牛车水碰运气，试着去找那８８１的电影原声带，之前跑了这么多唱片行都被告知卖完了，很幸运的终于让我给找到咯！回家就迫不及待就马上拿来播放，陶醉、回味电影的点点滴滴……之后才发现最吸引我的歌曲，原来不只是伍家辉的《一人一半》，电影里头的插曲《身外物》更是听得让我很有感触，旋律、歌词都配得很好，值得一听再听哦！

这里就放几首里头的歌台舞曲让大家过瘾一下吧！


一人一半　感情不散


未知



行情坏


今天突然突发奇想，想要为来临的中秋晚会制作一个独特的Techno灯笼，于是就开始埋头规划设计构思，不知情的老板还以为我今天为何会突然那么拼！哈哈……

一开始脑子里天马行空、胡思乱想一番，到最后于是决定要让我这一个灯笼来得华丽包装、不失歌台风味等种种元素，以下就是第一稿的设计图，欢迎大家多多指教……

想家

离开是为了回来，
没有那份离开的冲动，
哪里会有回来的欲望。
因为离开，
才会有回来的激动；
因为回来，
才能有离开的感伤。

脑筋急转弯

今天在［垃圾王国］那里捡到宝：

话说师父在课堂上出了一个难题，还真的考倒我们了……

问题：鸭子在瓶子里长大了，要怎样在不打破瓶子的情况下，把鸭子放出来？

好伤脑筋哦！不过我相信一定会找出答案的。

有兴趣的朋友，欢迎你们来一起试试吧？

难道酱就是爱国？

昨天马来西亚５0周年国庆日，好可惜我这里没有假期，这特别的一天我们原本应该要欢喜才对，但是今天浏览了火狗的照相馆，却看到让我觉得非常［杜兰］的一件事，不信？就往下看吧……相信你也会有同感吧？




那群［鸡蛋糕］还真的吃饱没事做，胡乱从别人家门前悬挂着的国旗，将之一一扯下然后就往那不知几天没洗澡的身上一披，然后加快油门逃之夭夭游街示众去。难道他们这么做是合法的吗？昂或是他们有特权这么做？相信你我也心知肚明吧！

反观早前明志只是在国歌间中穿插了自创的RAP，他们就闹得要死要活，说什么国歌有国歌法令，难道就没有国旗法令吗？别当我们是傻子OK！前几天在网络上看了报章才得知制作国旗蛋糕是犯法的，据某某猴子表示：将国旗吃进肚子是对国家不尊敬……放屁！那么以后全马的国庆宝宝在庆祝生日的时候不就少了特别的意义咯！

还有更离谱的是那几位［月漏］议员在几天前的国会里头重演猴戏，他们逐将矛头指向几位反对党议员，说他们因为没有跟着喊“默迪卡”而破口大骂他们“叛徒”，“下地狱”等粗俗字眼。当时国会里头好有不少前来参访的在籍学生，他们都对眼前的那一幕都吓呆了？难道这就是要给下一代的教育示范？

其实不是每天硬将爱国这两个字常挂在口中就表示爱国！

其实也不是在门口、车顶插多几根国旗就表示爱国！

当然更不是在国庆日前夕偷人家的国旗披在身上当超人，然后飙车游街示众就叫爱国！

其实爱国也可以有很多种创意的方法，有些老外甚至将自己国家的国旗来制成比基尼而在当地非常受欢迎，主要就是看国家的开放程度到如何！

看来我们国家建国已经５0载了还那么封建、保守！要知道时代已经更以往不一样了，更何况政府四处宣布要将我国改造为先进国，然而以现在国家的管制制度看来，一切都变得本末倒置了，不是吗？

昨天小妹打电话给我，问我最近是不是吃错药，为何最近的几篇帖子都在讲政治、国家之类的言论？家人也开始担心我的下场也会像［小明］一样……

亲爱的家人，其实不需要太担心，我只是在这里谈论事实罢了，并不是在造谣或是煽动民情。就因为我对国家的管理方式感到痛心，就因为我不忍我的国家就这么被那些［猴子政客们］给糟蹋、毁了，我不希望我的国家没有未来。

我爱国，所以我冒险写部落格！

金碧辉煌５0载－子民的心愿

墙上的时钟滴答滴答流失
再过三个小时，我的国家５0岁了！

准备要去狂欢的你们
又可曾知道
一个国家的独立，得来不易
里头都包含着先辈们的血与汗

国家５0年的成就
虽然谈不上飞黄腾达
虽然扯不上大富大贵
但至少在这里
我和家人还能三餐温饱
还有一辆国产威拉能让我驾
也有一座能够为我遮风挡雨的房子
我的生活就是那么平凡

但是过了明天
我们也都会变得不平凡起来
因为我们都是马来西亚的子民
无论种族、语言及肤色
我们都拥有同等的权利
让我们一起张开双臂　同声欢呼：

还我们一个言论自由的空间……merdeka!

还我们一个政治和平的国家……merdaka!

还我们一个太平稳定的治安……merdeka!

还我们一个没有排挤的种族和谐……merdeka!

我们大马子民的心愿
也不过如此而已
相信这样的心愿也不算奢华啊！

希望那些无能的猴子政客们
希望那些口无遮拦的骗子政客们
希望那些整天只会［PLP］的麻花政客们
莫切让我们心灰意冷下去
莫切再让我们感到失望难过！
莫切再［下衰］我们的国家
莫切再丢尽我们子民的脸！

无论如何，这里还是我生长的土地，
这里同样是孕育我成长的土地，
这土地，拥有我许多成长的回忆
虽然外头风风雨雨
虽然政治开始腐败
虽然权益已经受到威胁
虽然对它已感到绝望
但是我始终热爱这片土地
这就是我的国、我的家－马来西亚！

对着夜空中斑斓夺目的烟花
我的心还是如此深深祈愿着：

还我们一个言论自由的空间……merdeka!

还我们一个政治和平的国家……merdaka!

还我们一个太平稳定的治安……merdeka!

还我们一个没有排挤的种族和谐……merdeka!



一起听听几首早期我最喜欢的爱国歌曲吧！

[Setia]

Demi negara yang tercinta
Di curahkan bakti penuh setia
Demi raja yang disanjung tinggi
Kesetiaan tak berbelah bagi

Kepada pemimpin kepada rakyat
Khidmat diberi penuh taat
Sama bekerja sama berusaha
Setia berkhidmat untuk semua

Rela berkorban apa saja
Amanah bangsa tetap dijaga
Kami berikrar penuh setia
Untuk agama, bangsa dan negara




［Sejahtera Malaysia]

Puji dan syukur pada Ilahi
Anugerahnya tiada terhingga
Kedamaian kemakmuran
Malaysiaku bahagia

Dengan tekad untuk berjaya
Berbakti pada nusa dan bangsa
Kami junjung cita-cita luhur
Perpaduan seluruh negeri

Seia sekata sehati sejiwa
Menghadapi cabaran
Kami sedia kami setia
Berkorban untuk negara

Bersemarak Malaysia tercinta
Kibarkan panji kebesarannya
Kami rela menjaga namamu
Sejahtera Malaysia

50年的成就？

最近这几天，收到不少朋友发来的简讯，关于音乐鬼才－黄明志，因为前阵子改编国歌一事，被该国媒体胡乱渲染，同时更成为政客的玩偶，任由他们摆布公开道歉之后，又反口不认帐……大马，还真的Boleh！

虽然我不是当事者，我也同样不住在马来西亚，但就最近的事情真的让我对该国的政策感到相当失望……强奸、掠夺等大案件又不见他们那么落力去查办，反而宁愿浪费时间、浪费纳税人的金钱，将矛头指向我们这群［猴子］部落客（按：该国某官员曾经公开发表说所有部落客的言论好比猴子般呱里呱叫）……对付我们这些手无寸铁的狗官，他们不会觉得羞耻反而还感到自豪、沾沾自喜……还真有他X的贱！

在这里跟大家分享一则关于国家之间竞争的黑色幽默：

３0年前：［番薯国］vs［狮子国］
所得结果：惨败！无论治安、经济成长，都让开国４２年的狮子国领先……真的比上不足、比下有余！

２00７年：［番薯国］vs［三碗猪脚国］
所得结果：惨不忍睹……还是输了！我们邻居都已经开放政策，吸引外来投资，藉此刺激经济成长，反观将近５0年的番薯国，到现在都不知道还在干什么，执政的还整天在国内乱吠乱叫，再如此下去，看来人民就真的要种番薯咯！

２0２0年：［番薯国］vs［非洲某某说不出名字的村落］
所得结果：Yeah！我们［能］！终于看到我们的成就了，恭喜番薯国精明能［干］的领袖！

现在我之所以冒险写这篇，并不是存心想要毁辱国家，毕竟我也是个马来西亚人，还曾经长途劳顿的赶回国去更换大马卡呢！佛教也教我们要报国家恩，没有国哪有家，对吗？只是最近真的看不过眼目前某些领导人的演戏和手段，还有非常失败的［麻花］，他们不为我们华人出气就算了，反倒要求我们向他们土著低声下气，这是什么道理嘛！

再过一个礼拜就是国庆了，私人恩怨放一边，我们先开开心心欢喜迎接国庆吧！君子报［恩］十年未晚，一切就等来年大选再说吧！我想我会好好利用我手中的那张票，给国家一个惊喜，就当作开倒车５0年的贺礼吧！

中元节特辑－七月不怕鬼

今天已经是进入农历七月的第五天了，平时寂静的大街小巷也顿时因为举行中元会而热闹了起来。四处可见开始搭起了帐篷，设宴款待［好兄弟］们，有些更设立歌台演出来筹谢鬼神，就引用881经典开场对白：场面十分热闹，看到的人很多，看不到的更多！哈哈……有意思！

随着时代的变迁，现在的鬼节已经不像以往般那么阴森恐怖了，那些繁杂的禁忌礼俗也简化了不少……感觉上中元节的来临，好像是我们人类比那些［好兄弟］们更享受、更开心……有时会觉得好像是在自娱多过祭鬼！

提起鬼类，或许大家还会毛骨悚然的，但是当你有更深一层想法的时候，你会觉得他们沦落到这个地步，是挺可悲的！如果说鬼可怕吗？其实不也！［人］比鬼还要来得可怕，放眼看看现今我们居住的社会，已经陷入水深火热的阶段了，人类道德沦丧，抢劫、奸杀、掠夺等治安问题频频发生，搞得人心惶惶的……


中国人的传统观念认为，人死之後都会变成鬼，以佛教的观点来说，其实会转世鬼道是因为前生造作恶业，心吝啬而多贪欲，所以要受饥渴的苦报。虽然有的鬼也能享有人天福报，但是十之八九都是只能接受苦报的饿鬼，饱尝饥渴馈乏之苦，故以「饿鬼」为名。

在经典里所提到的饿鬼，终日饱受求不得苦，所得的食物不是遇水成火，就是喉细无法咽食。据《瑜伽师地论》所载，饿鬼在饮食上会受到三种障碍：

1.外障：此类饿鬼因为常受饥渴，所以发乱面黑，形容枯槁，唇口乾焦，只能以舌舐口，虽然四处奔走求食，所见的池水却都变成脓血而不能饮用。

2.内障：此类饿鬼咽细如针，口大如炬，腹鼓如山，然而即使得到食物，却因喉细而不能吞咽。

3.无障：此类饿鬼饮食虽没有障碍，但是不论所受食物为何，皆会燃烧成火，仍受饥渴大苦。


看到这里，觉得我们是绝对幸福的，我们能够免受饥渴之苦，也不必担忧三餐不着等烦恼，还能够随时自由上网读部落格等等……然而，我们也应该升起悲悯心，因为我们人间也同样存有着可以看到、可以摸到、常年的饥饿的子民，他们每日都过着非人的生活。根据统计，在这繁华先进的时代，依然还有每隔三分钟就会有一个人饿死的事件发生！哎……因此，浪费事物、挑食是真的不应该！

新加坡庆中元盛况

<881>电影原声带: 伍家辉《一人一半》

今天在网络在搜索到这首<881>电影歌曲: 伍家辉《一人一半》，在此跟大家分享：




演唱： 伍家辉
词： 小寒曲： 范俊福

一人一半 感情不散
一人一素故 感情才会久

时光累积 安静的泪滴
一心去追 爱那么可贵

这样的人 这样地等无
非是 等个回应眼神
为爱反滚 不及伤痕
甘心为你一身都浮沉

这样的人 别笑我蠢
傻傻的 心痛也不觉疼
就算天冷 就算难残忍
等你想起这没用的人

一人一半 感情不散
已经找到爱 为何要离开

已经找到爱 为何要离开



偷偷告诉你们吧，我反复听了这首个有好几遍了……
主要是这首歌的旋律吸引了我。你呢？

到戏院看歌台 - <881>观后感

昨天乃农历七月第一天,空气弥漫着阵阵的烧烟味,满地尽是冥纸的灰烬,随着晚风犹如孤魂般四处飘荡...

到了下班时间,这天我们都不打算加班,于是跟老板开玩笑说我们怕鬼,想早点回家...于是就准时走人咯!离开了公司,先到我常去的勿洛图书馆去熏陶书香气息,然后再到附近的咖啡店去享用晚餐--好好吃的砂劳越Kolo面.可惜我只顾着吃,当一想到要拍照贴上这里的时候,才发现已经快要吃完了,因此做罢下回再补番...呵呵!

眼看时间也差不多了,就急忙走到附近的公主戏院去买票,刚步入戏院门口,发现有好几部猛片都同时都在上映,有成龙的还有周董的新片子<不能说的秘密>.内心挣扎了好一阵子,毅然决定去看本土制作电影<881>...

找个好位子坐下之后,发现影院空位也所剩无几了,搞不懂周一的晚上都会出现爆棚的现象,也不知来者是人是鬼?但是可以理解的是大家都是和我一样慕名而来的,因为<881>在还未开映之前,宣传工作已经如火如荼的展开,相信大家也是受了预告片的影响而前来买票一探究竟?


<881>故事剧情周旋与歌台表演,爱情,友情,亲情之间...故事内容俗而不cheap,笑中有泪,尤其结尾的那一幕感人肺腑...

故事很简单, 两个女孩为了追求成为歌台歌星的梦想，一个[大木瓜]被母亲赶出家门，一个[小木瓜]身患绝症也不惜代价。她们组成了木瓜姐妹组合跑歌台，身后有裁缝师玲姨在帮助她们, 还有玲姨又聋又哑的儿子在默默支持她们。小木瓜的健康每况愈下，她只希望能好好地唱完今年的歌台，可是却碰上嫉妒她俩的榴莲姐妹来专找她俩麻烦，并向她俩发出挑战……

总的来说,整部剧有着相当的水准,拍摄手法也会让你感到焕然一新...电影<881>也好比一部歌舞剧,
剧中贯穿了不少天马行空的搞笑手法,时而让你笑声四起,时而让你感动莫名,情感的起伏拿捏得正好,
可称得上难得的一部好电影...


或许我看电影的方式与人不同,通常都在我步出电影院后才来细细品嚼脑海里的那股余温...回家的路上,脑海里头尽是影片所看到亮丽特出的歌衫与本土歌台文化,熟悉动听的福建民谣小调如:<十二莲花>,<望春风>等等,人与人之间真挚的感情,当然还感受到木瓜姐妹两人为了坚持理想的那股热诚而感动...尤其最后一幕小木瓜虽然已经快要奄奄一息的时候,口里还是坚持的唱着歌曲...

还没看过<881>的朋友,要赶快把握机会哦!我也非常期待<881>电影原声带的推出,因为里头动听的歌曲,
让我至今都还在忆犹未尽,尤其片未曲<一人一半>,好有意思哦...

"一人一半,感情甭散 ; 一人一suku,感情才会久..."回家的路上,我的口中如是这般吟唱着...


<881>预告片:

［黑皮］八月！

阴霾过去了，耀眼的太阳打从云端，探头而出……一切的一切，瞬间都变得很美很美，因为有你们 :)


昨天新加坡国庆假日虽然没有上班，但是我却反常的起个大清早，还身平第一次乘搭了最早的第一趟巴士，前往榜鹅新镇的新道场－佛光山去参加弥勒菩萨安座典礼。才刚一步出地铁站，雄伟壮观的新道场依稀可见，点点的繁星加上徐徐的晨风，伴随着我一同走向那光明大道……在那里，我放下了烦恼；在那里我得到了清静、法喜安乐，它就是我们心灵的加油站……走在凡尘滚滚的旅途，有时会开始觉得很累、很疲惫！心里极度需要一处清凉的地方让我歇息，休息够了再上路吧……在大门口，看者那弥勒菩萨的身影，总觉得他在笑我，左看右看，他真的是在笑我耶……笑我愚痴、笑我傻……仿佛想要告诉我，身上的包袱如果太重，那就学我一样笑笑放下吧，一直背驮着那满载烦恼、怨恨、压力的包袱是有够你受的。天下何其宽广，何必为了一些芝麻小事斤斤计较呢，职场如战场，难道你连这千百年来不变的道理还搞不清楚吗？想到这里，我是真的有够傻的……哈哈！


下午，为了宠一宠自己口腹，便到后港与一班友人会合，然后一起去新旺香港茶餐厅去吃下午茶。我们各自叫了不同的香港美食来品尝，有菠萝包、餐蛋面、起士锔香菇饭还有就是少不了香港有名的茶点［鸳鸯冰］啦……我们一行人吃得很爽快，讲笑话时也笑得很痛快，旁人也一直往我们身上瞄……我们是年轻人嘛，管他的，谁会去在意他人的眼光呢？


晚间，岛国上空绽放着那灿烂夺目的国庆烟花，因为不想前去挤沙丁鱼，于是改为到东北部参加难得一见的火供施食法会，只见现场生起了一堆熊熊的火焰，耳际传来悠悠的法螺声，间中也穿插着时而高昂、时而低沉的诵经声。我双手轻捧着供品，徐徐走向火堆前面，闭上双眼，心中的祈愿，随着那袅袅升空的青烟，飘向法界的佛菩萨……与此同时，也将心里一切的烦恼无名，一一投入烈火之中，将它化为灰烬，心中的魔，也就此魂飞魄散咯……


心情真的舒服许多了，紧接着还将要迎接更多一箩箩喜庆日子的八月份。朋友们，你们准备好了吗？让我们一同尽情欢庆吧！


［红龟糕心情部落已经１岁咯！］
很欣慰，每次做事只有５分钟热度的我还能够坚持的写到现在，虽然还谈不上定期每天都有帖子新鲜出炉，但是起码会试着在每个星期更新帖子……这一年来的成绩，虽然谈不上十分出色，期间也因为摸索自己部落格的特色而不断改进，希望往后能够继续加油，再把更好的写作与创作带给大家。同时也要感谢所有到访的部落格友，无论你是这里的熟客、新朋友、乱乱中闯进来的、或是潜水过来的鱼，在这里由衷感谢你们的支持与鼓励，谢谢你们　:)


［槟城福建播客２周年纪念！］
如果你是遍布于地球某个角落的北马人，或许你也好久好久没有听到那倍感亲切的乡音了，这里有个很不错的Podcast想要介绍给你，它有着非常独特的魔力，能够让你倍感亲切、让你一解乡愁，它就是www.penanghokkien.com……槟城福建播客自网络开播以来，已经迈入第二年了。这两年的光阴，真的让我感触良多，能够在这虚拟的网络世界里头得到真挚的友谊，还真是我前辈子修来的福份呢……虽然因为电脑技术上的问题，已经好一阵子没有参与节目录音了、但是我的心还是与你们同在，四海之内皆兄弟嘛！祝福槟城福建播客能够一帆风顺，越做越精彩！


［大马中文部落格祭２00７颁奖典礼］
最近在大马的中文部落格圈子里头，最热门的话题莫过于明日８月１２日晚上８点，在Bangsar Shopping Centre,Actor Studio举行的颁奖典礼。也有些部落格友也已经开始规划好该如何装扮自己出席盛会，可见大家对这次的颁奖典礼都给与高度的重视……很感谢大会的邀请，但是因为这阵子应酬缠身，无法前往出席给与支持，心里是有点遗憾的……虽然外头的社会是如何的纷乱，但是很感动于大会的努力与付出，极力将我们这批部落格友凝聚、组织起来，使得彼此之间的距离变得那么的近。要筹办及策划的确需要很多心思，也同时得绞尽脑汁付出很多的努力，因此在这里向各位筹委们，深深致敬！

快乐不快乐

经过几天沉淀身心之后，心里也逐渐释怀了许多，说不上十分开心，但也不至于那么难过了……友人看了我上个帖子之后，笑问我几时开始变得那么情绪化了呢？我一时说不上来，只觉得自身感受的东西真的无法用言语来说明，所谓春江水暖鸭先知……自己心情如何，不必刻意去掩饰，快乐就快乐，不快乐就不快乐，就这么简单……

人总是没有办法一直保持着那种高昂兴奋的情绪，同时也没有人总是一直那么消沉落寞，人生的路上就是因为有了这些情绪的高潮起伏，而变得更多姿多彩，不是吗？

快乐的时候，那就尽情欢乐吧！好好珍惜你那快乐的当下，但也切记不要得意忘形，免得乐极生悲哦！

伤心失落时，也不必刻意故作坚强，有时候流泪也不是一种罪，只当着是心情的抒发罢了……我总相信雨天过后将会出现一道斑斓夺目的彩虹，开始试着积极的去寻求人生的快乐泉源，明天依然那么精彩，不是吗？

感谢大家的安慰与鼓励，我的心情好多咯！明天又是新加坡国庆假日，难得不必上班，那就尽情享受一日的悠闲吧！

我是那只迷失的鱼

最近不知道怎么了，心情不是很好，有时显得莫名郁闷，有时也会有一种无奈感……这让我想起了曾经看过的一篇小故事：　

话说有一只美丽的鱼，有着细腻的鳞片，斑斓的色彩。在同类的眼中，它是天之骄子，多少年来，它满意地生活在这个世界。可是后来，它听说了一个地方，一个对它来说充满诱惑的地方，那个地方的名字叫——海。

很遗憾的是，它原本生活在一个不大的湖泊中，海……只能成为一个遥不可及的梦。因此它发誓，此生的目标就是找到大海，去体会真正的辽阔。于是，这条傻傻的鱼独自踏上了寻找大海的路。
   
它坚定地离开了生命的依托——水，走在了一片陌生而荒芜的土地上，它欣喜地看着眼前并不美丽但却新奇的世界，但却忽视了死神对它举起的镰刀。在陆地上，它艰难地前行——用它的鳍。

来到一座城市，这里繁华、喧嚣。它第一次感觉，人间真好。不知是鱼天生的愚蠢，还是尘世的喧嚣让它的反应迟钝，它……居然忘记了水，忘记了故乡，也忘记了海。孤独、茫然地走在这不属于它的世界，一直一直走下去，走下去……

耳边的喧闹消失了，眼前的景色消失了，意识正在向着四周飘散……出于一种生命的本能，一具躯体依然在向前方晃动。终于，在失去灵魂的前一刻，它想起了它的梦想，它的海，也是在那一刻，它看到了一把镰刀落下的阴影。一条浑身沾满泥和血的鱼毫无光彩地倒在路边，行人匆匆，不曾有人注意到又一个生命的陨落。

我不希望我是那只鱼，但我真的感觉那只鱼像我。走在人生的道路上，有时会因为忙碌而变得盲目、也有时也会在这个物欲横流的社会上，迷失了原有的生活方向。人的心一直以来都是惯性向外苦苦寻求，乃至迷失了自我，又可曾会想过自己的生活意义呢？有时候静下心来，深一层去思考，得到却未必拥有，失去也未必是损失，或许是我想太多了吧……Hmm……现在唯有努力调整自己的心情，应该很快就会没事了……
