所以最近我开始听我喜欢听的歌，开始看堆满书房的中文书，和远远的新旧朋友开始写信留言联络，和近近的朋友开始喝茶吃饭聊天。
原来我喜欢的歌手没有几个。耳机里传来的经常是张艾嘉，阿桑，张惠妹和老狼的旧歌。我喜欢的是他们的歌声，他们能让我感动的歌声。
原来我爱跑步。穿起跑步鞋我就可以不停地跑，直到汗流满身，感觉到爽了我才要喊停。

原来一个人的时候，感觉到的不一定就只有寂寞。有时候也会有宁静，舒适，富裕与满足。

原来
不管你做了多少该做的，还是不该做的，还是那些在该与不该做之间的事，时间还是照样过去的。

hair for hope (our own version)
we went to velocity but registration was closed already due to overwhelming response. since we have already "conducted" the pre-lesson, we had to go thru with it. kai kai was hesistant at first but then when all 3 of us did it, he learnt the other "support", other than supporting cancer patients.
in class today, it was quite easy to account for my new "hairstyle". i whipped out the slides i prepared earlier and explained the significance of the event, why people came forward to volunteer, the problems cancer patients encounter and the concept of 'charity'.
rather good, actually :)

departures
好凄美的曲子。
那天晚上，我一个人在厅里看着电视。妈妈睡了，所以我放肆让自己哭了几分钟。
这样的电影情节很难不让我想起老爸。
那年我才二十五，眼看就要三十八了。我都不知道这十几年没有爸爸的日子是怎样过的。
有些事是不会忘记的。时间过了再久也不会忘记。
也不是痛，就是很酸。心里面酸得想哭，所以就哭了。
酸了过后就是怕。
我是一个很不会处理生离死别的人。我害怕如果这一切要重来一次，我不一定还能撑得下去。
奇怪的是，我每每过生日前都要胡思乱想一番才过瘾。
无可救药。
预祝自己生日快乐；
感谢妈妈三十几年前怀胎九个月辛苦地把我生下，养我这么多年；
抱歉自己没能给爸妈最好的。
这是我的遗憾。

忘不了（北川那一幕）
越想越觉得可怕。
。
。
原本是七层楼的，那么一震，只剩下两层楼了。
。
。
北川大酒店原来有八层楼高，现在只能看到五层楼了。
。
。
我脑子里就一直在想着那些被埋在地底下的人。
。
闷得我喘不过气来, 压得我这几天一直做恶梦。
。
好可怕，好可怕。

too pleased to go to bed
No, it is not the results. That was last night. Today I had a new "high".
We met at 8.30 pm and by the time I got back to the car, it was 1.20 am. Boy, he has grown.
I must have said at least ten times "I'm so happy for you" tonight. And he knows it. He has changed. Much. Very much. And I told him before we parted, that should he mention to his mum about our meeting this evening, he should let her know that his teacher is very happy for him. I told him that I may not have played any part in his "transformation" but I'm still genuienly happy for him.
He was not satisfied with his L1R4 of 20 points and studied on his own for one year and resat the O level exams. This time, he got 10 points. He then went through army and is now studying at the polytechnic. He has 5 CCAs now - to make up for lost time, he said. He does his work in school in between classes and CCAs and rests when he is at home. He said he needed the rest so that he could do well in class the following day, so that he could do well enough to get the As he wants.
He was a quiet student in class. Not the most obedient, and often falling alseep on the desk. I suppose school was boring for him but since he was almost always able to perfowm well in the tests, I usually let him be. Tonight he told me that school was too slow for him and that was why on some days he chose not to go to school. He said that teachers would be teaching the same things for weeks when he has already learnt them the first time round.
During one parent-teacher conference, I spoke to his mum and told her how smart her child is. I told her that he learns very fast in class but is not keen on pushing himself further. He said that I was perhaps the only person who spoke good about him, even though at that time he didn't really bother about what I said and could not remember exactly what happened. He remembers that I told his mum something nice about him.
We talked about many things tonight. About how he has beaten runners at the poly and how he wants to improve his timing further; About how he can't recall what happened before sec 2 and how he has no recollection of his primary school days (in Hong Kong) at all; About how he detached himself from "those friends who were not going to help" (him) achieve his targets; About how he thinks people should work for themselves and how nature should be allowed take its course ...
This is Charles, and I'm so happy and thankful that we met tonight.
