On Midterms

Brought to you by Kimi ni Todoke, "The Night Before Midterms".

I don't know much about this particular manga, it's in the shoujo genre, which I don't really look into a lot. But this is a brilliant picture that brings a smile to my face during the difficult times of the midterms. It is a rare instance that I can fully comprehend the Japanese words, with the help of the picture, of course.

The guy in the red shirt on top left is doing the final reviews, meaning he is hardworking. The girl on the top right is probably going to stay up all night doing last-minute studying. The guy taking a bath in the middle has given up, lol. The girl doing nail polish is ignoring the inevitable. The guy on the bottom left was turned down by a girl. (What happened to midterms!!?LOL) The girl sleeping soundly on the bottom right was well-prepared; therefore, she is at peace.

Well...which one am I? I guess I'm in between the top left and top right. : D

BOOKS

Hell yes!!! I enjoy reading books, especially during midterms. ; )

悶。

天氣好悶。

期中考好悶。

唸書好悶。

打排球好悶。

頭髮抓不起來因為太悶。



悶到我都長痘子了。 (欸

On Love

"If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don’t want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it, too. I want them to be able to do whatever they want around me."

- Stephen Chbosky

Well, yeah. Recently I had some discussion on the topic of love with a good friend of mine, who happens to be both male and gay. I don't have too many male friends that I can associate with, but he's an exception. No, he does not act like a girl, it's just that his train of thought is much closer to me than most people. You could say that we are people that are stuck between the two gender.

He has never been in an official relationship with anyone before, sure he's got those school crushes now and then, but no romantic relationships to speak of at all. I have been in a relationship with a girl, and yeah, that makes me none the wiser. In short, we are both inexperienced and very single at the moment. Some of my friends are very enthusiastic in finding a good boyfriend for him, and yes he is considering. But due to his many, uh, responsibilities, he just doesn't think he has the time for love.

Then he posed a question to me, "Don't you want to find a girl?" Well, I don't really know how to answer that exactly. I've only been in one relationship in my whole 19 (almost 20) years, that might sound stupid to some, but that's the plain truth. I might be an easy-going classmate, but I am a very closeted (pun intended?) person when it comes to more intimacy, even between good friends. Unlike my gay best friend, who knows what kind of guys he is attracted, and he has strong gaydar, lol. But me? I have no clue, really. I mean, my ex turned out straight after we broke up. I really don't know how to find a girl, the right girl. I am clueless, and I'm too goddamn shy. And the thing is, my mom is homophobic, and I don't think I have the strength to confront her on these matters again, at least not for a long time.

My last relationship was initiated by the other party, meaning I was on the receiving end. (now this sounds a bit weird) I have no idea how to take the initiative, and I am certainly no flirt. Not to mention the most important thing of all, I haven't met a girl that has got anywhere near my heart yet

Now, what does college love life hold for me? 0%, as of yet.

CAMERA!!!

之前看上了Sony新推出的travel camera，不過考慮到它是新出的，再加上SONY價錢一向又都偏高... 我最近又看上了兩台相機!!! 價錢都在一萬出頭，我打算請我爸幫我出一半，應該存的到5,6千塊吧!!

Ricoh CX3

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 (DMC-TZ7)

Panasonic那台是頗受好評，因為功能不錯、好操作、價錢OK、品質好。可是Ricoh那一台我認為比較有特色，它有個1cm超清晰近拍功能很吸引我... 怎麼辦，兩台都好棒，價錢又都差不多!!

quote

"I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a “life.” I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one. I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

- Maya Angelou

There is still so much to life that I don't know or appreciate or accepted.

青春

什麼是青春，跨越了青春的門檻之後還能歌詠青春嗎？還是帶著嫉妒與疑惑扼殺了青春的可能。成人的框架與限制，很多時候成了與孩子溝通的屏蔽。有時候，有些孩子會在同儕裡找到歸屬。可是有時候，有些孩子選擇退縮到自己的世界裡，直到他們找到聽懂他們心靈語言的對象。


青春原是充滿浪漫，青春原是滿佈想像，可浪漫與現狀的衝突、想像與真實鴻溝，讓青春埋藏著無可忽略的難題。即便如此，卻不可拋卻青春，因為面對難題的過程，在那困頓的掙扎裡，才能強韌關於自我的意識與價值，也才能鍛鍊存在的勇氣與決斷。重要的是，在面對這種種之時，別要忘了青春的本質，「希望」。


我想嘗試訴說屬於青春的語言，屬於青春的自由，還有青春裡不容忽視的「可能」。

Tomorrow's Angel & Yesterday's Princess

ANGELA: Hey…I remember this feathered wing from somewhere. How did you get it?
YESTERDAY: Maybe I got it yesterday, I only know that I’m waiting for tomorrow.
ANGELA: What would tomorrow hold for me? Would I be able to become an angel tomorrow?
YESTERDAY: Maybe that angel exists in yesterday. [metro sounds] Goodnight, lonely angel. I will ask tomorrow on your behalf.

賣弄文字，應該是這次劇本的走向。

失去一支翅膀的天使詢問抱著一支翅膀的昨日公主她從何處得到那支翅膀的。但天使卻不知道，自己所失去的東西正是那支翅膀，只知道自己失去了某樣東西。昨日公主說她在或許是在昨天得到的，而她只知道自己在等待明天。天使又問了公主說明天能帶給她什麼? 能讓她變回天使嗎? 公主說天使或許只存在於昨日。

"晚安，寂寞的天使。我向妳替明天問問看。" 昨日的公主搭上了前往明天的列車。

Gender

"I don’t believe in a gender binary. I think that there are probably an infinite number of genders that one can be, and I do mean that in an abstract way. What’s the point in trying to decide if there are two genders or three or three million? However people want to express themselves and however they feel, that’s who they are. That’s their gender, that’s their personality, that’s their sex, that’s who they are. I don’t even like the word “gender,” I don’t understand the point of it." - Kim Stolz

It’s not contingent on chromosomes, sex organs, or any biological trait. Biology defines sex, not gender (though even biology has it’s grey areas). - from Autostraddle

I've always found the subject of gender vs sex to be fascinating. Maybe it's because I'm struggling to identify myself, to get to know myself for who I really am. I came out to myself in my third year of high school, after my breakup with a girl I liked, I finally viewed myself as gay.

I am a girl, but I don't want to dress in women's clothing. I look like a boy, but I'm not like a boy. These are many thoughts that I keep to keep my identity from falling apart.

嗯，香港

老實說，我不太想打什麼東西欸，超累的。不過我已經5天沒發文了...

Before Sunset

Storm & Little Boat

If I could liken my mother to anything, I would describe her as a great storm, and our household would be like a little boat floating on the ocean. The storm is unpredictable, and the little boat has to suffer the damage and violent wind brought on by the storm.

When she is in a good mood, there would be sunshine and good wind to propel the boat onward. But then the sky would darken, and woe on the little frail boat sailing on the wide wide ocean. The rain would come down in torrents, and waves would come crashing from all sides. The little boat would rock, sway, tilt, spin, and almost capsize. Then the storm would suddenly cease, and angry gray clouds would clear way for the sun to peek out again.

This is an endless cycle in my family. The captain is as useless against the storm as the sailors are, all that we could do is endure and pray for the sunshine after the storm.

春假

東吳真的很誇張!!!繼多了一個禮拜的寒假之後，東吳的春假又是一個禮拜的假期，好誇張唷。(笑) 去年因為滿多其他學校也放了3天左右的春假，東吳的一個禮拜就感覺還好。但今年我目前沒聽到任何其他學校像我們學校一樣放這麼久，清大放四五六日一，世新放五六日一。重點是，"一"還是清明節。

Sonnet 144

Two loves I have of comfort and despair,
Which like two spirits do suggest me still:
The better angel is a man right fair,
The worser spirit a woman colour'd ill.
To win me soon to hell, my female evil
Tempteth my better angel from my side,
And would corrupt my saint to be a devil,
Wooing his purity with her foul pride.
And whether that my angel be turn'd fiend
Suspect I may, but not directly tell;
But being both from me, both to each friend,
I guess one angel in another's hell:
Yet this shall I ne'er know, but live in doubt,
Till my bad angel fire my good one out.




So, it still amounts to nothing.
