舞雪歌云，闲淡妆匀，蓝淡水深染轻裙。
酒香醺脸，粉色生春，更巧谈话，美情性，好精神。
江空无畔，凌波何处？月桥边青柳朱门。
断钟残角，又送黄昏，奈心中事，眼中泪，意中人。

US probe to make perilous landing on Martian arctic - Top Stories - MSN Singapore News - News

Another news that is relevant to EE8086. I wonder the sudden rise in such news is coincidental or its due to my attention ever since attending EE8086?

2008-05-23T21:36:00.002+08:00

News (regarding school...)
1. Chinese Bridge result is out and JY is e only one with 名次from NTU.
Don't know how to face Zhou Lao Shi if he asked about the result.... Esp I'm from Chinese Studies... 汗顔。。。

2. BS 804 will be here again in AY2008/2009 Sem 1
Here's the email from Zhong Lao Shi

同学们你们好吗，闲暇时有看中医书吗，新的804又要开课了，我想为了让新同学能更好掌握中医理论，这次只讲中医基础，不再讲中医史，中药，和诊断。这样好吗？想听听你们的意见，（上次是否太繁杂，有些同学听不懂，那时我希望让你们多了解些中医）请你们给我一些建议，谢谢。同学们不要熬夜，切记中医养生法则。你们同学有来自四川吗，祝你的家人平安。

For those who took EE8086 should be familiar...

It such coincidental that Prof Ng just covered a little on supernova today and the news came out. The terms used are ever so familiar. Lol. Don't think I will be able to understand if I didn't attend this module. Thrilled...

Went to send Wen Xiu off to China today. This is the 2nd time I sent people off. First its Xiao Ming. When will it be my turn....

P.S. Somehow, these trolleys reminded me of Terracotta Army...

News lately:
1. The Great Fox Sales is now on. (Up to 50% off*)

2. UOB Visa TX Debit programme will be discontinued from 23 June 2008 onwards. It will be replaced with UOB NOW Debit Card.
Enjoy 1st year annual fee wavier. To enjoy continued fee waivers, simply charge S$2.4 K every year.

3. Sing Tel has announced that they have signed an agreement with Apple to bring iPhone to S'pore later this year. To know more, register your interest @ http://home.singtel.com/i/

P.S. The annual fee for UOB NOW Debit Card is $18 and I really don't think the min amount spent that is needed for continued fee waivers justifies $18. Still thinking of what I should do...

曾經太年輕

2008-05-04T01:51:00.005+08:00

藍又時-曾經太年輕

窗外風鈴一直不安靜　風在搖晃不安的宿命
我聆聽　你回憶經過的聲音

開始旅行寂寞很清醒　我在靠近過去的邊景
有些　戀人只是　路過時的風景

曾經太過年輕　卻絕對真心
我給的愛是種任性　不懂花開只一次的愛情

曾經太過年輕　淚純真透明
你的堅定　我仍然還　相信

直到如今你說愛我的那封信
我一直都收藏著　摺疊用心　讓誓言乾淨

曾經太過年輕　在人海飄零
那些關於我的事情　總有你緊緊跟隨的聲音

曾經太過年輕　淚純真　透明
你的堅定　我仍然還　相信

Was watching the encore telecast last evening. Nice show. And as always, 方文山's lyrics is brilliant.

【方道‧文山流】 - 曾經太年輕

曾經太過年輕　卻絕對真心
我給的愛是種任性　不懂花開只一次的愛情

Was getting upset on some stuff that looks pretty trival now. At least, after reading this blog entry. I really shouldn't be gurmbling that my life is not good, at least I'm the 1 out of a 100 in the world whose undergoing Uni education and I've a laptop to blog.

"小豫兒這次...在路上拍攝火球男孩時看見旁邊有一個小男孩滿臉黑青
還有一個不像爸爸的男人怒斥這群男孩
後來老張告訴我..
在這裡,有一種變向的人口販子專門吸收流浪兒
5,6歲後開始在路上幫人洗車~
10歲後開始學習特技..
更大點就抓去斷手腳博取更多同情..賺取更多小費
等成年就準備賣器官...."

I should really feel blessed.

梁文福 - 歷史考試前夕 - The Night Before History Exam

如果秦始皇燒書都燒完　我不必讀到三點半

如果周公真的忙著治天下　何必不斷催我入夢鄉

三閭大夫不投汨羅江　賣粽子老王生活怎麼辦

如果楚霸王當年不到烏江　隔壁班劉邦不會這麼囂張

西施不浣紗　昭君不和番　現代的古典美人做何打算
如果劉備哭不出諸葛亮　會不會鬧出一陣劇本荒

只看過薛丁山　偏要考安祿山　知道馮寶寶她演過楊玉環

若非十二金牌將岳飛來調返　今天還吃不吃到油條香

我吃過月餅當然知道朱元璋　吃榴槤知道鄭和下西洋

胡金銓的戲裡聽過東西廠　看金庸小說知道袁崇煥

只嘆林則徐燒鴉片燒不完　西太后偏偏相信義和團

珍妃不該嫁給那個光緒皇　幾千年等到一個孫中山

萬里長城長　沒有歷史長　考試題目比那絲路還彎

五胡亂華亂　我的腦筋更亂　心情比那個八國聯軍慌

多少年的改變已經很習慣　多少次革命總是革不完

謝天謝地近代史老師講不完　下一代歷史考試不敢想像

She's soo pretty. Anyway, its not the main point.

Just can't help coming online to share about today's HC210 Classical Chinese Fiction exam. Its really the most open based questions I have seen in my life as a student.

Here's my favourite qn:
如果可以选择，你愿意成为本学期所学习的中国古典小说作品中的哪一位人物？为什么？

I chose 聂小倩.

And the last part of my answer is
聂小倩在18岁时已夭折，所以身为鬼的她，容颜将永远保持在18岁的花样年华。;P

Saw a really meaningful comment on 方文山's blog and googled it....

孩子！当你还很小的时候，我花了很多时间，教你慢慢用汤匙、用筷子吃东西。教你系鞋带、扣扣子、溜滑梯、教你穿衣服、梳头发、拧鼻涕。这些和你在一起的点点滴滴，是多么的令我怀念不已。所以，当我想不起来，接不上话时，请给我一点时间，等我一下，让我再想一想 ..... 极可能最后连要说什么，我也一并忘记。

孩子！你忘记我们练习了好几百回，才学会的第一首娃娃歌吗？是否还记得每天总要我绞尽脑汁，去回答不知道你从哪里冒出来的吗？所以，当我重复又重复说着老掉牙的故事，哼着我孩提时代的儿歌时，体谅我。让我继续沉醉在这些回忆中吧！切望你，也能陪着我闲话家常吧！

孩子，现在我常忘了扣扣子、系鞋带。吃饭时，会弄脏衣服，梳头发时手还会不停的抖，不催促我，要对我多一点耐心和温柔，只要有你在一起，就会有很多的温暖涌上心头。孩子！如今，我的脚站也站不稳，走也走不动。所以，请你紧紧的握着我的手，陪着我，慢慢的。就像当年一样，我带着你一步一步地走。

很巧的，明天就是清明节。希望我们能及时发现平常又多么的忽略父母。别等到树欲静而风不止，子欲养而亲不在。。。

韩婴《韩诗外传》
皋鱼曰：“吾失之三矣：少而学，游诸侯，以后吾亲，失之一也；高尚吾志，间吾事君，失之二也；与友厚而小绝之，失之三矣。树欲静而风不止，子欲养而亲不待也。往而不可〔追者，年也，去而不可〕得见者、亲也。吾请从此辞矣。”

李白《长干行》
妾发初覆额，折花门前剧。
郎骑竹马来，绕床弄青梅。
同居长干里，两小无嫌猜。
十四为君妇，羞颜尚不开。
低头向暗壁，千唤不一回。
十五始展眉，愿同尘与灰。
常存抱柱信，岂上望夫台。
十六君远行，瞿塘滟预堆。
五月不可触，猿鸣天上哀。
门前迟行迹，一一生绿苔。
苔深不能扫，落叶秋风早。
八月蝴蝶来，双飞西园草。
感此伤妾心，坐愁红颜老。
早晚下三巴，预将书报家。
相迎不道远，直至长风沙。
忆妾深闺里，烟尘不曾识。
嫁与长干人，沙头候风色。
五月南风兴，思君在巴陵。
八月西风起，想君发扬子。
去来悲如何，见少别离多。
湘潭几日到，妾梦越风波。
昨夜狂风度，吹折江头树。
淼淼暗无边，行人在何处。
北客真王公，朱衣满江中。
日暮来投宿，数朝不肯东。
好乘浮云骢，佳期兰渚东。
鸳鸯绿浦上，翡翠锦屏中。
自怜十五馀，颜色桃李红。
那作商人妇，愁水复愁风。

A poem I saw in a novel just now. And coincidentally, its the poem that 秋香 adores in 《唐伯虎点秋香》。

唐寅《桃花庵歌》
桃花坞里桃花庵，桃花庵里桃花仙；
桃花仙人种桃树，又摘桃花换酒钱。
酒醒只在花前坐，酒醉还来花下眠；
半醒半醉日复日，花落花开年复年。
但愿老死花酒间，不愿鞠躬车马前
车尘马足贵者趣，酒盏花枝贫者缘。
若将富贵比贫贱，一在平地一在天；
若将贫贱比车马，他得驱驰我得闲。
别人笑我忒疯癫，我笑他人看不穿；
不见五陵豪杰墓，无花无酒锄作田。

One of the most useful chain mails I've seen so fall.

熬夜的技巧
熬夜加班，也要有技巧，才能依然身體硬朗。否則，鐵打的身體，也受不了如此的日夜操勞呢！因此，想要熬夜的您，千萬記住：1.不要吃泡麵來填飽肚子，以免火氣太大。最好儘量以水果、土司、麵包、清粥小菜來充飢。2.提神飲料，最好以綠茶為主，可以提神，又可以消除體內多餘的自由基，讓您神清氣爽。但是胃腸不好的人，最好改喝枸杞子泡熱水的茶，可以解壓，還可以明目呢！3.熬夜前千萬記得卸妝，或是先把臉洗乾淨，以免厚厚的粉層或油漬，在熬夜的煎熬下，引發滿臉痘痘。4.熬夜之後，第二天中午時千萬記得打個小盹。晚上1:00以後不睡覺，人體的代謝作用由內分泌燃燒，用內分泌燃燒產生的毒素會很多，會使體質變酸，通常熬夜的人得慢性疾病的機率比抽煙或喝酒的人都來得高。所以每天儘量在12:00以前睡覺，不要常熬夜，若非要熬夜，一星期以一次為限！熬夜時不要吃肉，盡量吃碳水化合物，這樣隔天才不至於很累，可把傷害減至最低

Actually burning midnight oil is very frequent for me. At least I've burnt the whole of last week rushing reports and revising quizzes. For now, I don't think I can write my report out in the day.

其实能穿越千年，也只有文章

2008-02-20T00:23:00.006+08:00

在作詞界撐起一片天方文山堅持“三不一沒有”

最新一期台灣《新新聞》雜志刊發對“周杰倫御用作詞人”方文山的專訪文章，詳述方文山的成長趣事。方文山稱會堅持“三不一沒有”，不演戲、不主持、不唱歌、沒有代言。　　

原文摘錄如下：　　
走進位在小巷裡的一間畫室，小小的房間，六張小學生桌上放置一座中國城池模型，外頭有著橘色的城牆，牆內座落著大大小小的中國風建筑，三合院四合院，往北望去，還有一座宮殿。而眾人埋首，替一間間小屋小牆雕梁畫棟。　　
為首建造城池的主人，就是這幾年最嗆紅的文字工作者，也是周杰倫的御用作詞人方文山。他隻有高職畢業，卻開啟了文學新名詞《素顏韻腳詩》，甚至在大學講堂裡教學演講。寫歌詞，寫到出了三本書，本本大賣，書店裡甚至出現缺貨的狀況。　　
舊舊小小的畫室裡，方文山戴著充滿日本禪意的涂鴉卡車帽，復古的直條紋襯衫，簡單的刷色牛仔褲，坐在小小的木椅上，與身后的綠色黑板相映，很有后現代的沖突感，彷佛看到了坐在《三年二班》拼貼味十足的方文山。　　
採訪當天已經三十六小時沒有合眼的方文山，離開城池模型之后，喝了一罐蠻牛，笑著解釋︰“十二月底，我的圖文書准備要出版了，最近沒日沒夜都在忙這個。”聲音有些疲累卻透著一絲興味兒。“等弄好了，給你們看！”像個急於獻寶的孩子。　　
方文山喜歡自己動手做，於是《青花瓷—隱藏在釉色裡的文字秘密》，光靠文字表達不夠吸引人，他打造了一個自己心中的長安城，帶一點江南小鎮的氣息，配上自己寫的中國風歌詞，成為一本山水相連的圖文集。　
隨性自我發展成績不好喜歡閱讀　　方文山虛構的長安城池，一磚一瓦都是自己創造出來，和畫室好友葉士豪兩人一起當起建筑工人，江南造園藝術，小橋下會有滾水掠過青苔，御花園裡植栽真花真草，小小的牛羊也少不得，江南風光的生命力就攤在這紙板上，靜靜躍動。　　他從小就超愛堆積木。印象中，小時候爸爸媽媽都忙工作，家裡有四個小孩，剛好就是“兄姊弟妹”，排行老三的他，父母親沒有特別限制什麼，連成績也不太管，方文山就這麼“隨性”的自我發展。　　
家裡的飲料瓶蓋，馬路上的紅磚塊，都會被方文山拿來迭層樓。“國小”(小學)的時候，開始用陸軍棋當磚，象棋成柱，扑克牌弄瓦，跳棋當裝飾，簡單的打造，小小方文山的小天地。那時候他並沒有發現，把不同的元素堆棧起來，竟可以成為他日后生財的創作本事。　　長大之后，方文山親手布置自己的房子。將古香古色的門牌，拼貼在紅磚瓦上成了裝飾。喜愛舊東西，是眾所皆知的事，他把電影票根、“國小”課本，錯落有致的拼貼成框，“這些放在抽屜裡，食之無味棄之可惜的東西，具體而微地縮在一個小框裡，變成了時空膠囊。”他創作的拼貼框。

學校的通才教育，在方文山身上並沒有發揮作用，小時候作文成績好，卻也沒有特別培養。隻知道當同學寫文章還要抄《幼獅少年》時，他的大作已經完成，可以交卷了。　　
方文山不追求成績，所以在吸收知識的地方，幾乎都是打混度日，他笑著說：“我很晚熟，也不知道自己要干嘛。”雖然成績不好，但是方文山卻很喜歡閱讀，他的閱讀很極端，席慕容的詩詞，龍應台的針砭時事、中國正史、西洋野史，什麼書他都讀。　　
每每讀到戰爭中有燒城池毀皇宮的章節，方文山說：“我都會想，哇！這樣燒掉多少東西啊！說不定裡面還有王羲之的真跡耶！”那表情彷佛真有祝融之災，燒到自家收藏的寶物一樣。　　家裡的四個小孩就這樣平平順順長大，一直到讀高職，方文山還是不知道自己要干嘛，於是姊姊就建議他去讀電子科。隻是因為，“會統科是女生讀的，美工科很花錢，”於是他就念了電子科，“我根本沒有反對，因為我不知道要反對什麼。”　　
結果讀了三年的電子科，到現在連量晶體管的正負極都還是不會。三年裡面，方文山一樣看他的課外讀物，就這樣莫名奇妙念完高職。當兵前的歲月一晃眼，乏善可陳就過去了。　
　
做事講求依據投詞稿開啟新人生　　
不過他對事情的執著卻令人咋舌。迷上奇怪的研究，因為不相信星座，於是他跑去“中央圖書館”，查星座起源，自己去找根據。又找了“中華文藝協會”的作家名單，把他們的生日換算成星座，做起了田野調查，畫起了量表。　　
“因為我不想要為反對而反對，要有依據啊！”於是作家協會調查完了之后，還做了職棒協會。之后進入了這一行，方文山還把周杰倫的歌迷回函卡，整理列表換算成星座表，最后有了一個結論。　　
“人的個性和氣質，跟出生的季節有關。”其實星座和天上的星星並沒有關系，而是和季節有關，這是方文山反推回去的結果。方文山比了一個七歲孩子的高度：“我收集了這麼多的資料，本來想要用來出書的。”奇怪的研究還包括了姓名學、血型，他講起來頭頭是道、神採奕奕，也讓記者聽得是津津有味，“不過，研究這些很奇怪啊，又不能賺錢。”　　
很樂天的方文山，在成績上不拘小節，考卷上面的選擇題，他認為是機率的問題，“數字不就一到四，二是中間值，干脆全部填二，正確機率還比亂猜的大。”念書是不太會念，不過，聰明的他，對於這種逆向思考倒是相當會舉一反三。　　
退伍后，方文山在桃園當起保全系統安裝員，每天拿著電鑽鑽牆，安裝管線，一向過得很怡然自得的他，突然積極起來，隻因為，“我不喜歡這個工作，想要脫離它。”於是他把逆向思考應用到工作之上。　
一心向往電影圈的方文山，開始寫電影劇本，但是看到電影圈的不景氣，投稿的劇本又沒有下文，於是退而求其次，開始改寫歌詞，從來就不知道自己會寫詞的他，一邊拿電鑽，想到好句子就放下電鑽，在小本子上抄抄寫寫。　　
從前讀書時看的野史外傳，這回倒成了方文山的武林秘籍，他形容：“好像練家子，每天在練內功，有一天比武，才知道，出招就有了。”其實他也沒有太多想法，因為沒門路，“寫完之后覺得很有希望，不過愈寫愈矛盾。”　　
傻傻的，將歌詞打成冊，寄了一百份到各大唱片公司。爸爸媽媽也不明白他在干嘛。每天郵差的摩托車“噗、噗、噗”地來了，他都會跑到門口去看有沒有回音。　　
天公總是疼好人，有一天凌晨，吳宗憲打給方文山，也開啟了他新的人生。他一路從揣摩前輩伍佰、萬芳的寫詞方式，到后來跳脫傳統模式，加入了電影手法，有場景有人物，將詞句和氣氛，巧妙的剪接成詞，自創圖像歌詞，獨霸天下，甚至還成為入學考題。　　
同一時期的新人，周杰倫在發行首張專輯之后，大紅大紫。方文山也在作詞界撐起一片天，於是媒體便揣測，周杰倫和方文山會不會不合，他語氣堅定卻耐心地解釋：“不會。杰倫是藝人，做的東西很多﹔而我是文字工作者，是我擅長的工作。兩個的工作范圍不一樣。怎麼會沖突？”

爸媽與有榮焉文言歌詞成為主流　　
方文山堅持“三不一沒有”，不演戲、不主持、不唱歌、沒有代言。雖然不是藝人，但是方文山倒是很有公眾人物的氣質，現在他去信義計劃區看電影，沒有辦法像普通人一樣，在街邊叼著煙，“我覺得很奇怪，這樣像什麼樣？”說他矛盾，他倒也承認，“我本來就很矛盾啊！”　　六年前，第一次在東吳大學演講，他花了比演講費高二倍的錢買參考書做功課，到現在都還記得當時的演講題目〈從歌詞解構現代語言〉，背數據、擬大綱、做小抄，“嚇得皮皮挫，想說我好好的日子不過，干嘛來演講啊！”　　
后來，愈講愈自信，演講對他而言駕輕就熟。有一回到台南成大演講，坐上高鐵到了台南，又上了出租車，直接到成大，演講完又坐出租車，沿路看著街道、小吃攤、人群，連腳都沒有踏上台南的土地，又直接搭高鐵返台北。　　
不知道從什麼時候開始，這樣忙碌的日子，變成方文山的生活。爸爸將他的剪報貼在神明桌旁，而他賺了錢替爸爸買新車，自己的車卻在貸款。媽媽向鄰居說起兒子，口氣中有著與有榮焉的驕傲。　　
“那是一種家庭的穩定力量，讓我在做任何事情的時候，都會想到這樣會影響到別人，而不是隻有自己。”這種家庭影響力對他而言，愈來愈強烈。也因為“把興趣當成工作，所以自己也忙得很愉快！”　　
對於未來的創作方向，會不會走向社會批判風格，帶起另一波風潮？方文山說：“寫這個不見得有人會唱呀！”他談起了市場趨勢，以及他自己的個人定位。　　

因此在這個連語言都嫌快餐的年代，他帶點文言的歌詞竟成為市場主流，拼貼成詩意滿布，自我風格強烈的《娘子》、《東風破》、《青花瓷》等。　　
進入唱片圈九年，不由得讓人佩服他的聰明，他將雨聲、籬笆、水氣、青苔，一切他喜愛的事物寫進詞中，像一隻水中蛟龍，習慣了這一切，可以在主流市場中，自在幽游，卻悄悄的拼貼建構他的國度。　　
訪問到最后，方文山眼皮已經彷佛千斤重，聲音愈來愈微弱。但是當他回到小房間，看到自己建構的長安城池，眼睛又忽地一亮，開始認真拿起小房子，一筆一畫細心著色。他笑著說，假如住在這裡頭，當然就要當皇帝啊！　　
既然是皇帝，那一定有后宮佳麗三千?？方文山這時竟然?腆起來，笑說：“隻要一個就好了啦！”難不成像〈發如雪〉裡所寫：“繁華如三千東流水，我隻取一瓢愛了解。”有沒有那麼專情啊？　　另一項殊榮摘金馬！　　
徹夜不眠的長安城君王方文山，在採訪過后一天，參加第四十四屆的金馬獎頒獎典禮，和周杰倫合作電影《不能說的．秘密》的同名電影主題曲，一舉摘下本屆金馬獎的原創電影歌曲獎。　　方文山上台領獎時，依舊戴了一頂卡車帽，配上簡單的西裝外套，一貫隨性的裝扮，讓主持人藍心湄戲稱，這是他最正式的一套服裝。方文山笑稱，沒想到寫歌詞也可以和《色.戒》的女主角湯唯握到手。　　
看來堅守“三不一沒有”的方文山，不當藝人，當個公眾人物，也是好處多多，如今最忙碌的作詞人站在金馬獎的舞台上，和亞洲小天王，一同共享“君臨天下”的成就感，方文山發揮他過人的本事這在商業導向的市場裡，又默默為他的“方道·文山流”拼貼出輝煌的一頁。（文?李嘉興）

P.S. 因为方文山的古典文学底子太好了，所以我一直以为他是中文系本科毕业的。没想到那些知识居然是从闲暇时阅读所获取的。真的很佩服他！

P.P.S 好像要他的新书！

P.P.P.S 更想看那长安模型！可是好像不可能！

Jay on 2008 春节联欢晚会!!!

One of the interesting comments I saw on you-tube:

一个现代男子，在游江南小镇时偶遇一个青花瓷，被瓶身上的画像所吸引，爱上了画中女子。一场似梦似真的相遇，男子走进画中，一番江南美境，还有那个深爱的女子。人鬼不能相恋，那么男子醒来后珍藏起这个传世的青花瓷，并说这辈子遇见这个瓶子遇见画中你，其实是为了下辈子下遇写伏笔罢了。一个唯美的人鬼恋故事。"你的美一缕飘散，去到我去不了的地方"明显就是说瓶中仙"月色被打捞起，晕开了结局"就是暗示水中月很美，但结局是虚妄的"而我路过那江南小镇惹了你"很明暗的撞鬼情景么

2008 春晚舞蹈-飞天 Spring Festival Gala Dance-Fei Tian V2-1

This is demoralizing...

In today's HT101 lecture, 谭老师 said that during this whole semester, she is going to do her best to teach us whatever we know, and the rest shall depends on our 造化。

Haiz....

Still in the process of seeking inspiration for this term paper...

P.S: The kitten looks so 幸福！Hope I can successful seek the inspiration I need.

2008-02-15T17:33:00.001+08:00

Just finish revamping my blog. It looks soo nice now! lol!

Some information on the music playing...

◆ 文殊菩薩五字真言(梵文) 唵啊喇啪嚓吶諦 Om a ra pa ca na Dhih
文殊菩薩五字真言，又稱為「文殊菩薩心咒」，由“啊、喇、啪、嚓、吶”等五字梵文組成。據佛經記載，常誦念「文殊菩薩心咒」可以消除過去犯錯造成的業力，提昇智慧、讓思緒清晰，不再懼怕面對困難，輕鬆解除煩惱與障礙。

◆ 關於文殊菩薩文殊菩薩擁有無上智慧，佛曾稱其為三世諸佛成道之母，常以獅子為座騎，表示智慧威猛無比；或以蓮花為台座，代表清淨無染；或駕乘金色孔雀，比喻飛揚自在。唱誦文殊菩薩真言能讓智慧長存眾人心中，趨離黑暗，人生充滿光明。

◆ 番外篇小故事願見文殊 ─ 有眼不識菩薩
迦羅越很希望自己能擁有像文殊菩薩一樣的智慧，所以每次到佛寺時，都會很虔誠的向文殊菩薩的塑像頂禮膜拜。有一天，迦羅越準備了豐盛的齋宴來供養僧眾，並在宴席的最前方，放了一張豪華精緻的座椅，希望莊嚴的文殊菩薩能應邀前來接受奉供。不多久後，在前來應供的僧眾中，有一位其貌不揚、蓬頭垢面、衣履闌珊的跛腳老人。這位跛腳老人一拐一拐的走向前方的豪華座椅，準備就坐。迦羅越看到這個情形，心想：「這位子是要給莊嚴的文殊菩薩、或是德高望眾的大和尚坐的，怎麼可以讓一個邋遢的乞丐坐在這上面呢！」於是，迦羅越立刻走了過去，把老人從座椅上拉下來，要他到旁邊去吃飯。不一會兒，老人又一拐一拐地上去坐。「怎麼又跑上去了！」迦羅越就又上前把老人給拉下來。可是不到一會兒，老人還是又往大座椅上坐過去。
就這樣拉拉扯扯、上下七次，老人不再走回高座，找了一處角落席地而坐，迦羅越終於鬆了一口氣！齋僧之後，迦羅越就到佛寺中，恭恭敬敬的禮拜，並希望文殊菩薩能被感動，如他所願現身為他加持，令他獲得大智慧。
整整忙碌了一整天，疲憊的迦羅越從佛寺回家後，就倒頭呼呼大睡了。在睡夢中，他見到了他早也祈求、晚也祈求的的文殊菩薩，文殊菩薩對他說：「你不是從早到晚唸著，希望親眼見到我嗎？希望我現身嗎？為了讓你得償所願，今天我親自到齋宴會場去，可是你卻每次都把我從椅子上拉下來，一共拉了七次，為了不讓你起煩念，我只好到角落邊去用齋了。」此刻，迦羅越猛然從夢中驚醒坐了起來，想到齋僧當時，一直要坐上高座的跛腳老人，原來正是文殊菩薩！文殊菩薩慈悲的示現，自己不但未上前禮拜，竟然有眼不識泰山，將菩薩一次又一次的請下座來！「唉！唉！」愈想愈懊惱，愈想愈後悔。想想，都是因為自己平常就習慣從外表去分別、執著的習氣，造成當面錯過大善知識的悔恨。再想想，今天文殊菩薩以這樣的外貌示現，不正是在教化自己不可以貌取人，教化自己心性才是真實可貴的；能夠面對種種外境不起任何分別執著，便是真正的大智慧。
迦羅越不禁由衷的禮拜，感謝文殊菩薩的啟發，讓他徹底瞭解不可妄從表相上分別取捨，今後要以平等心供養一切，不可以輕慢他人！

Was teaching 小明's maths just now and I realised doing fundamental maths question has become an innate ability that once you look at the question, run it through your mind for 10 seconds and you can calculate it out straight away, of course with the help of a calculator. Somehow, it is like breathing, which you can do it sub-conciously.

2008-02-08T21:57:00.000+08:00

我怀念的，是小时候那种无忧无虑的童年。

我怀念的，是小时候那种与众多家人们一起吃的团圆饭。

我怀念的，是小时候那种很有气氛过年气氛的春节。

我怀念的，是我听说在数百年前还有的上元节灯会。

我怀念的，是。。。

那么，你，怀念的是什么呢？

2008-02-05T23:35:00.000+08:00

I'm not been updating... Lol

Life's been quite mundane; studying, slacking, reading novels...

Except that this feverish + sore throat + cough is not healing after dragging for 2 months and a visit to Chinese Physicians then family doctor...

Sick-ed.

2008-01-27T19:21:00.000+08:00

OMG, this is soo funny...

陈汉典：我保护你，我保护你。 (6th min)

2008-01-27T18:25:00.000+08:00

Was sick for more than 1 month, from last year end of year till now. Finally it escalated to 38.5 °C fever yesterday night.

Went to see doctor this morning. Then at breakfast at the coffee shop in the neighbourhood. Was having 水粿 when a little boy suddenly approached, asking whether I want to buy a copy of Chinese health newspaper.

Suddenly felt quite upset. Though Mum's right for saying what's wrong with selling newspaper? At least he's able. But just felt sad to see a young boy, less than 12 years old, selling newspaper on Sunday morning...

Just feel that a happy childhood is very important. At least, that's what I believed, one would be more hopeful when faced with challenges in the future.

2008-01-22T23:24:00.000+08:00

School's been having Bazaar at both North & South Spine, think its due to the EEE week. Talking about EEE, been hearing comments from the people around me.

Anyway, I think we should have more such Bazaar in future. Been to busy with school, (guess so is everyone) even though its 2nd week of the new semester, to really go shop around.

Bought a T-shirt with Shu Yi (Thanks for paying for me 1st) and a mini-SD card today. My previous was MIA after I send it for repair and the counter person didn't remove it from my phone....

:(

2008-01-18T15:27:00.001+08:00

Found a better version of 彩云追月(CO) but still had no idea what to write for the report...

As those who had attended 210 would know...

A-capella Version (With lyrics)

P.S. Its one of the best, but too much interferences from the surroundings.

Sometimes, I say sometimes, its funny to hear rumours about yourself as if you're not the person concerned. As long as the rumours are not too negative.

Shouldn't mention the rumors in detail here though, as it involves others. lol

Anyway, initially I find it amusing, until I mentioned it to HM just now and he said that these rumours make sound bad...

Perception is formed, as what the teacher mentioned in today's 111 lecture. Oops, I'm starting to get upset now...

2008-01-13T23:35:00.000+08:00

Saw this on 方文山's blog...

或许有些时候我们是在享受对方对我们的好，沉浸在一种被人喜欢的虚荣，但却不是真正的喜欢对方。

Once, my friend told me a story...

Nth years ago, she had a close guy classmates. They eat together, play together, in short, sticking to each other when they are in school. However, one day, she heard that the guy like her. After hearing this, she started avoiding the guy...

I guess 她不是真正的喜欢对方吧。。。

2008-01-11T18:31:00.000+08:00

Songs do have it therapeutic properties....

I admit I'm really greedy. Was emo-ing over the fact that there's a lot of things out there I want but I can't get.

Like:
The job in school.
A new wardrobe.
A Gucci tote....

Ok, I'm more upset the job.

Anyway, when Yes 933 played this song...

:)

2008-01-09T15:15:00.000+08:00

Went to 四马路观音庙 to 拜拜 on Monday，as what 奸妃no. 2 had mentioned in her blog.

For details, please look at her blog.

P.S. There's a huge blue-black on my right thigh now due to banging onto the handle of a parked bicycle (out of nowhere) on our way to the temple....

2008-01-08T21:39:00.000+08:00

Above are the modules I am taking this semester. Picture courtesy of 奸妃no.2.

Attend my 1st HT101 lecture. Was really blown off the chair. I know its trans so both language are involved but I didn't realise that English has to be goood too. Oh my, how? My English sucks....

浪费

2008-01-05T14:04:00.000+08:00

今天起来的第一件事就是打开电脑，打印Classical Novels的资料。印着印者，已经花了一个多小时。满室的墨水味，感觉有一点颓废。感觉读书好像是在浪费钱，浪费纸，浪费墨水。但我想，只要不是浪费生命，或者是浪费时间就好了。。。

2008-01-01T18:49:00.001+08:00

Happy New Year!

How did you guys spend your New Year's Eve?

Head to town with Karen yesterday. Paragon was exceptionally noisy that day. I kept hearing buzzing noise surrounding my ears. Had Boston Clam Chowder while Karen had Roasted Pumpkin with Caramelized Apple & Toasted Almonds at The Soup Spoon.

Then headed to Jason's Supermarket to explore while searching for a bottle of mineral water...

And here's what we saw... Extortionate priced fruits from Japan.

Then head to Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge & Restaurant at Taka. Shared a main course and dessert with Karen...

Main Course: The Shooting Star

It consists of 2 pieces of Dory fish, a steamed and a fried. The steamed fish taste like fresh scallops without any smell of fish while the fried fish just taste like any decent fish & chips. The shrimp was nothing spectacular, it just taste salty while the Caviar taste like dried uncooked Ikan Bilis.
P.S: I really have no idea why people drool over Caviar after I had tasted it.

P.P.S: The picture on top was taken by my phone camera while the one below was taken from a blog. I really feel that I had not done justice to the food with that camera....

Dessert was Blueberry cake that is so crumbly and moist.

Overall: The food was good just that it was a bit pricey. The meal came up to a little less than $25.

2007-12-29T02:34:00.000+08:00

Culture shocked... In US, teachers would tell students what questions will be out in tests or exams and they need not memorize multiplication tables i.e. 9x9=81...(05:02)

2007-12-29T01:29:00.000+08:00

Had gotten my results yesterday. So glad that pan pan didn't fail me! I didn't manage to complete the last question which worth 25 marks.

Here's the results:

BS804 Introductory to TCM: A+
HC101 文学与文化导论：B+
HC102 汉语导论：B+
HC201 先秦两汉魏晋文学：B
HW101C Craft of Writing: Pass

GPA: 4.1

Heard that many others got good results too. Hui Ying and Wei Yu scored well too...

2007-12-29T01:27:00.000+08:00

One of the most chaotic ending ever....

Anyway, I've realised without 小S，蔡康永has become more gossipy. lol

2007-12-27T02:02:00.000+08:00

OMG this is funny....

“哇，我的包包咧？！”（06：40）

2007-12-26T19:56:00.000+08:00

Happy Boxing day and belated Christmas!

Anyway, was reminded when I count-down for christmas online that new year is also coming soon and in a short time, I'll be 20. By the time of 25, wrinkles are going to appear and this no-doubt will give me more reasons to spend money on my guru (as Evon named her, aka Gerogia Lee). Let's hope that by then, I would have enough money to pay for Aramis Laser ($800 per session and according to her, I need 3: $800x3=$2400).

Went to Settler's Cafe (Holland V) brunch with Grace, Karen and Wen Xiu. Stayed there for 2 hours and learnt to play a new game called Zoo or so-what-ever. Seen a lot of familiar faces there (according to them, some are from JSS, some from JJ).

Went to Burger King to have Onion Rings then headed back to JP for MOS Burger. Teriyaki Chicken Burger is the Best!

Came home for late dinner, eating while watching Peter Pan. Aww, he's so cute.

Conclusion for the day: One should not go hungry on Christmas Day or its so P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C!

P.S. : Really start to regret for not buying Malt Candy from the granny at Holland V, she look so ke lian! Haiz....

2007-12-25T00:07:00.000+08:00

I know this is crazy... But when the clock strikes 12, I started to hear sounds that resemble fire-works. Thought its from Chinese Garden. Then asked Zi Gin and Han Ming who stay near by too and both heard it. But only Zi Gin saw it, in the direction of Johor. Ok, I think the sound is way too loud?

Didn't have any programmes on Christmas Eve :( ... Didn't went out for the past few days too, except for clubbing on Friday. I'm really not the cut for clubbing. Lol, but since my primary school classmates came all the way from Canada, there's no harm sight-seeing. Lol

P.S.: Here's my "Christmas" supper

2007-12-21T14:48:00.000+08:00

Been embarking on my lastest project: To finish the 1987 version of 《红楼梦》by the end of this hols. No choice. I'm reading Classical Chinese Fiction next sem. Didn't want to end up being clueless when teacher teaches 《红楼梦》. Since its been ages I last read 《红楼梦》.

Been browsing through the related books in HSS's library too. But there's simply to many books and the topics' too wide to cover. Don't think we will do that much next sem. Anyway, there's a interesting book on 《红楼梦魇》by 张爱玲. I really like the title.

Since young, I don't really like the latter part of 《红楼梦》, which is really crappy. Till recently did I realise that the last 40 chapters weren't by 曹雪芹.

Haiz....

一恨海棠无香，二恨鲥鱼多骨，三恨《红楼梦》未完。

2007-12-16T18:53:00.000+08:00

突然觉得自己很没用。。。What are other doing for this hols: Working, travelling, rotting (with an agenda). What about me? Rotting aimlessly....

Shall we go and save the world???

2007-12-14T01:58:00.000+08:00

Felt so cheated.... Humph!

P.S.:有一点像皇帝宣人进宫面圣的感觉。。。
Anw 电视怎么肯能是人做的。Lol

Horrifying... If you know when I'm talking about...

Overall, I guess the event is not star-studded enough to hold up the show.

P.S: I'm really that Jay had such good results in his first directed movie.

这世界上有很多可爱的猫儿。但很可惜的是，大部分的猫儿名唤抄袭。带动风潮的人物还是交给Ch U 比较合适。。。

当你望出窗外时，会是怎么样的天气呢？

2007-12-03T15:39:00.000+08:00

This is according to Hui Ying's request.

Anyway, I don't understand why they need to go gaga after English. Its after all, just another language. And according to Pan Pan , there's no caste system in languages, as long as they can express what you want.

2007-11-30T17:01:00.000+08:00

Here's what happened yesterday.

Had prata for lunch at Clementi. Was told by my friend (the one whose lower torso and a portion of hand is in the picture) that the most famous prata is Strawberry prata that looks real pinkish in the photo.Tried it, and as Mr Chua like to say "Nothing spectacular".

Tired Tissue (paper) prata. The one I had at Food Republic was nicer.

Sang K-Student (they had a new package, K-Student Tapas and its way worth it than normal K-Student. You just trade in 1 of your normal 2 cups drinks for a side-dish and snack. I meant, how expensive can coke, sprite and honey lemon get?) Was told that there's a unknown part 3 to this sequel of MVs.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Some say the sequence was the other way round. *Shrugs*

Came home after tabao-ing some food. Got home and remove my ear-studs and place it on the table. When I came back 1 was on the floor and the other can't be found. Somehow it just reminded me of 落单的恋人。Haiz... My favourite ear-stud.

Also bought Jay's new album. Although its Singapore version, but its selling at $7.90!Bought at a road side store at Clementi. And its hence I didn't have the official proof of purchase to take part in the lucky draw for Jay's coming concert. Sobs...

2007-11-29T00:34:00.000+08:00

《楚汉骄雄》终于在昨天（现在是0035，理论上是29/11 了）播完了．本来还以为我会把整部剧看完，但做了ＨＣ２０１的报告，进一步解了项羽的人格后，实在不忍看着他一步步走向失败．在项羽杀了子婴后就不再看下去了。

我曾说过，作为女人，我宁愿做虞姬，也不愿意做吕后。至少，在一辈子中，能留在项羽身边就此生无憾了。惟有身边的男人似刘邦，权力才会是重要的。。。

To HC102:

Please don't let me retake you...

最近电脑常播的就是梁静茹的《崇拜》。

话说回来，最近上网时常常在系上不同人的部落格上趴趴走。虽然现在还是考试季节，但部落格上的文章还是很有话题的，爱情、亲情、对自己的心情。旁观者清，看的时候会有种“众人皆醉我独醒”的感觉。或许，别人看我所写的也有这种感觉吧。。。

忘了是曾几何时我开始讨厌夜晚。还记得小时候，我是很喜欢夜晚的，因为它能让我精神，而晚风又凉得沁心。

现在的我，尤其是考试时期，当太阳下山时就会开始感到落寞。尤其是昨夜，被三只小强围攻，差一点发疯。

可我又是个会自然而然晚睡，因而晚起的人．因此夜晚醒着的时间又比白天长．真不知道该怎么办！

真希望考试快点过去！

不屑！这辈子好像很少那么不屑。。。

亵渎！完全是不折不扣的亵渎。。。

This episode is funny, especially after 05:10...

Something really scary and dramatic happened today. Must the life of students studying in DoC be SO dramatic?

Really have to thank a lot of people that had helped me to prevent a tragedy from happening today. Its all my fault...

《士不遇賦》董仲舒
嗚呼！嗟呼！遐哉邈矣！時來曷遲，去之速矣。屈意從人，悲吾族矣。正身俟時，將就木矣。心之憂兮，不期祿矣。遑遑匪寧，祇增辱矣。努力觸藩，徒摧角矣。不出戶庭，庶無過矣。重曰：「生不丁三代之盛隆兮，而丁三季之末俗。」末俗以辯詐而期通兮，貞士以耿介而自束。雖日三省於吾身兮，繇懷進退之唯谷。彼寔繁之有徒兮，指貞白以為墨，目信嫮而言眇兮，口信辯而言訥。鬼神不能正人事之變戾，聖賢亦不能開愚夫之違惑。出門則不可與偕同，藏器又豈其不容。退洗心而內訟兮，固亦未知其所從。觀上世之清暉兮，廉士焭焭而靡歸。殷湯有卞隨與務光兮，周武有伯夷與叔齊。孰若反身於素業兮，莫隨世俗而流轉。雖矯情而獲百利兮，不如復心而歸一善。

Hui Ying asked a very thought provoking question today:"Since you know your result for ancient lit will suck,why still still like it?"

The answer: Passion.

Though all these subjects in DoC won't been easy but I'm gald I'm here.

Passion helps!

What is exam? After taking exams for 2+6+4+2=14 years and around 50 exams, I still don't understand the rationale behind it.

To test your standard of understanding? Then what's the point of national exam such as 'O' and 'A' level when the papers were not given back, so there's no way to know when went right or wrong?

To consolidate what you've learnt? Frankly, I had returned majority of what I've learnt during the 2 years in JC to my teachers except for Chinese.

So what's the point of exam except at that moment it is larger than life? Larger than YOUR life. Life comprises of a lot of components, yourself, your family, yours friends.... But, No! During exam period that's nothing to life except for revising, revising and revising. (At least to me, its true.) No time for yourself, your family, your friends.

But if you look back 10 years later. Is that exam really important? Looking back now, PSLE and 'O' level and maybe 'A' level 2 years ago were not as important as what I felt then...

2007-11-15T13:53:00.000+08:00

Starting to feel the impact of exam sinking in... Butterflies in stomach and all other stuffs. Start to miss A levels period where there's medicine to prevent me from feeling the impact. Na... Depending on medicine is bad. Guess I should be facing it myself, alone. All geared in battle mode in a few days time up to face the full impact!

好像慢慢养成每天起来后第一件事就是上网。有没有发现我不是说每天早上起来后？也不知为什么？即使天天关在家里不去们，我还是天天睡足10个小时，终使前晚早睡，到了隔天也不能早起。

Smsed问了惠盈她打算怎么读201。我得到的回答竟是：Everything！omg！真佩服她居然能读完！光是《离骚》我就花了一整个晚上。汗颜-ing。。。

Ta da! Let me introduce my study companion for this exam

P.S.:Pooh is my 17th BD present from Grace while Eeyore was bought during A levels

Just realised that I was not online yesterday after checking my blog. Usually, I would update that day if I was online. Oh well, was reading through 屈原's 《离骚》 till 2 am. Wiki's record is that it has 2400 plus words. Really feel like banging the wall yesterday. Not only did he whine in length, he whined in depth. I almost had to refer to the footnote for every sentence, in view that the footnotes are even longer than the original paragraph. But well, was starting to appreciate it after half-way through. 翟老师所得对；要对自己下狠心。十年之后回头看，真的没什么。Starting to comprehend what his words now. Looking back, the education that I gone through was not as bad as what I felt when I was in it.

Study week 开始了，全世界好像安静了下来。很多人的blog 很少update了，连msn的人影也少了，电话也不响了。或许这是老天爷要我好好的在家里闭关修炼九天吧。但这感觉好像全世界自有我一个人。开始有点了解嫦娥的感受了：碧海青天夜夜心。。。

Just seen the photos taken in school with Zhai Lao Shi. I look hideous! Miserable...

2007-11-09T22:52:00.000+08:00

今天是 last day of school，但很miserable. 昨天好不容易把柯大的report赶完。又得把C。O。W的portfolio last peice of work 做完。早上一起来，智慧牙牙者的牙肉还是很痛，昨晚吃的panadol根本没用。肚子在学校的路上又很痛。到了学校，又late for last lesson of C.O.W. Haiz。。。

后来跟惠盈在图书馆温习功课，然后陪她去找潘潘for consulation. 看到了潘潘，他劈头就问exam读完了吗？惠盈说读完了。但我还没。haiz。。。真的好无地自容，好像找个洞躲起来哦。。。

现在只能希望在这1week的study break 里我不会slack!

2007-11-08T10:50:00.000+08:00

Hiaz...

I'm in such a bad mood now.1, had a 2000 words term paper to hand in tomorrow and I had not written down a single word. 2, woke up only at 1000. 3, one of my 5 combs dropped into the toilet bowl... Ah....

2007-11-06T00:57:00.000+08:00

天啊！昨晚的楚汉骄雄真是一言惊醒梦中人！让我从此对项羽之败改观！从前我对项羽的败感到非常惋惜。如今才真正意识到此乃天命！还好还好，201的学期报告还没交！

2007-11-05T18:44:00.000+08:00

I think I'm driven crazy by HC101 term paper that I'm dragging my AC adaptor everywhere with my lappy as if I'm walking a dog.

I have no idea what to write for 101.....
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

2007-11-05T17:13:00.000+08:00

Finally, I'm so done with HC201 Term Paper yesterday. Edited 3 times and it came up about 6k. Just so feel like banging wall during the 3 consecutive days while I was rushing it out. Finally able to submit it tomorrow. I guess passion really does matter in this course and I'm glad that I'm here.

About assignments, got back my HC102 assignment 1 today. Phew, the result isn't bad. For pan pan said that his exam is really tough and he'll try to be lesser strict for assignments so that our average percentage can be moderated.

Btw, saw Karen today in interchange on my way to school. She's on her way to A level Geography. Really admired her courage for re-taking. I still remembered I had a nightmare after A levels that I had not completed my Chemistry paper and there's a lot of concepts that I'm unsure of. Really glad its over and done with! A level is something that should be done once only in a lifetime...

今天翟老师教的是东晋文学。那时典型的文人大多都是贵族名士，因此产生了所谓的魏晋风度；喜欢就做，不喜欢就不做。噫，多爽！如果我们能高兴就考试，不高兴不考就好！

也忘了是为什么老师突然提到我们在学校这类的上课方式在古代是大逆不道的，因为男女授受不亲。

到了老大的课就说到了性别（gender），而在以前女人是被这类的社会性别所牵制着。因此才有所谓的三从四德、七出之条等，若这还还是性与现代社会，我应该是不及格的！

LOL! But females nowadays enjoy much more freedom than our predecessors! So who cares?
