Sometimes, you just need to dance, careless. we care too much most of our life time, it's heavy. just need that one movement, to close your eyes, to feel again.

不发表总结,不宣布开始,it's just an other day which we should enjoy...

和上次不一样,今年我没有做年度总结。也许是懒惰的因素吧,但觉得过去也就过去已,不要再回头了,大伙高兴就好。不知道是不是人快到“老年”的原因,这些日子特别怀旧,有时候那些个老片段会突然浮现在眼前,如放学后去妈妈的学校等她下班在培正中学玩耍的情景,和朋友们去北京路、上下九瞎逛,和孙敏路过培正那条林荫道的片段,等等。是想家了吧,是怀念那些个们了吧,我想,是吧!要接受的是,我离开了,要move on!不要哀伤“过去”过去了,有时间的话,去庆幸安稳的每一天每一秒吧。

It has been a year, my dearest friend!

86年,我们上一年级,还记得那一天,排队做早操,在我后面的你竟然把纸团塞到我衣服里,第一印象,你这人真顽皮!热爱美术课的我们,成为好朋友,每天一起放学回家,一路胡扯,那六年,我们一起走过培正路的林荫大道多少次,我们分着吃那棒棒冰多少次,你教训我浪费棒棒冰多少次?每天,我们在一起!

92年,上中学,我们还在一个班里,你个子高,我个子矮,座位离得很远,但是我常爱回头给你做鬼脸,你也不落后,回个更鬼的鬼脸,爱那些个特别的沟通方式,那是我们!

95年,上高中,你离开了七中,但是你没有离开我的生活。高一那年,我病了住院,你几乎每天来看我,记得你喜欢喝我妈妈的老火靓汤,嘿,小姐,究竟谁是病人?

99年, 我们都上了大学, 我们不在同一个城市, 你知道吗, 我最爱你的来信, 因为你的字迹,你的表达,你是一个艺术家! 大学的我们疯着呢, 还记得一起去旅行的事情吗, 我们的胆子真大,还好没干太坏的事......

04年, 我离开你, 或许,这是个错误的选择, 还记得走前你请我去东山电车站的那家在二楼的印度餐厅吃饭, 我点了咖喱鸡饭...... 对不起, 朋友, 我冷落了你.

许多许多的片段,很多很多年,我们一直在一起......今晚开车回家时,一路想着和你的点滴,很高兴可以有你这个老朋友,很痛苦因为我不可以再和你说一句话, 是的, 2007年的11月, 你离开了我们, 那一天,我的世界永远改变了, 如何美好, 我的拼图都不会完整, 永远, 都缺少了那一块...... 快乐......

亲爱的孙敏, 我知道我不善言辞, 也许我的语言过于庸俗肉麻. 我也许不懂怎么告诉你我很想念你. 很沉重, 每当想到你. So sorry, I wish I could be a better friend!

New York City, The Big Apple, Who doesn't want to give it a bite?

One can't paint NEW YORK as it is, but rather as it is felt.

I do not know art, but i love it!

领悟, 就让我们不要再浪费时间了。

十月的这次旅程,爱里面的每一分钟。不单只是因为我本来就爱旅行,更是因为这次的旅行让我领悟生活,抛开那些不必的琐碎。其实不是吗,高兴不高兴,错或对,狠或爱,是要看自己怎么去选择和领悟。 到底我想我还是keep the goods, forget the bads. 好笑,花了快三十年才能领悟到这个道理,不是只是说说而已,而是真是感受到和能做到。

现在的我还是很忙,无论工作还是家庭生活。但我心里知道,我爱这样忙碌的生活,我觉得自己很充实,即使没有许多空余的时间。 很快就是和离奇先生结婚四周年的纪念日了,那天我们会在MISSOULA,会是一个愉快的周末,只有我和他。

It must be a sign

心里面还是耿耿于怀丢失了那朵红玫瑰头花,刚刚开始爱不释手的时候,却再也找不着了。 记得那天的匆忙,也许就是因为那个原因失去了那朵花,悔恨自己的大意,可惜为时已晚。 命运就是如此,许多东西我们控制不了,可笑,小小的一朵头花,感触那么大。唉,深着呢,是深沉的。我知道它预示着些什么。

one person, one moon cake

如果不是朋友给了我一个荣华月饼,我都差点忘记又是一年一度的中秋节了...... 真是举头望明月,低头思故乡也!个嘴咬住旧月饼,真是眼泪心里流。。。 唉,在这个美国陕西地段,又怎么会有什么中秋气氛呢?
祝大家中秋快乐!

Sunny days

yes, i know i did not finish my last blog, it has been a busy while... but well, the rain finally stopped and the sun comes out. Dawn is fine now and i saw her off on Saturday. and i wish everything will get better for her soon, she is such a strong person. from her, i learned a lot, and i know how silly i was sometimes, almost 30 years old, still being ridiculous.

crazy days, lots of changes, i think i should get ready for a new page. yes, i got promotion!!! i made it! but at the same time i had to put my little business idea aside for now... there is no one stone two birds.

wish everyone all the best!

rainy days

It's rainy today, it never stops from last night, it doesn't really help me on my way home from Missoula... long story why i ended up being in Missoula this weekend...

Friday, 3AM, the phone rang, it's a phone call from Dillon hospital, Dawn got into a bad car accident and she was in a bad situation... I could not believe it, I wondered if I was dreaming or not, because it was so unreal! we were supposed to meet in Avon at about 8AM, and we would hang out for two or three days... it has been maybe more than 10 years since we last saw each other, 10 years, a decade, she moved to Singapore, finished college, got married, had a lovely daughter, has a very good career, came to America to get training last year... life makes us apart and now we are close once again, I could not wait to see her, but I can not believe we ended up meeting in the hospital the first time after 10 years. Poor Dawn broke her neck, she had to be transferred by air from Dillon to the hospital in Missoula so that she could get a neck operation. I sat on the bed hoping that was just a bad dream, i really could not lose another friend anymore, I don't think I could afford it... (to be continued)

hello Sun Min, my old buddy!

He put your picture on your blog on Aug.23, the special day for you! you look great in the picture. gosh, i am so happy that i can see your smile again, it's has been more than 9 months since you left us , left this beautiful world. the moment you left me, my world changed and my life will always miss somthing, part of me died... it's hard for me, i cried when i saw that picture, it feels like somebody used a sharp knife to cut my heart open...
 
i know nobody really understand why... maybe no many people really care...
 
hey, i miss you. i know you are with me!

cross my fingers...

i wish i can make it, just want to write it down. a small step, but it's meaningful...

空虚,寂寞,冻 ...... It's so empty......

最近的我就像一颗快没电的三个五电池,无晒能量。 即使好像有很多事要去完成,也觉得时间过得很慢,所有东西都很闷,Oh, it's the end of the world. 也许是因为讨厌夏天的原因吧, 夏天 -- 闷热 , 瞧,这形容词也能简单地证明了些什么,看,也没有人称其余三季,“闷冷”,“闷不冷不热”。。。所以我觉得我的厌恶也许也是有道理的。
奥运终于在中国隆重开幕!心里还是高兴的,但由于不在家里,还是没有真正感受到些什么,毕竟,隔着个太平洋,热量也很难传到我这里。 还记得小时候和爸爸他们看奥运,看世界杯,总是一件兴奋的事,坐在妈妈专门在农贸市场买的印着花仙子的朔料小红凳上,冒着大近视眼的危险,坐的离电视很近,大家都很投入,有时欢呼,有时唏嘘,好像和运动员们血肉相连似的,miss those moment, we are always full of passion! 可惜此情不在,不知道什么时候还可以和老爸组成 “啦啦队”。。。
上周末很多parties, 玩的有点疯, 结果发现越堕落越失落, 搞到这段时间精神不振,这两天才又回到运动的routine。
会好起来吧, 因为接下来两个月会计划去PORTLAND 和 NEW YORK CITY,ADD SOME SPICE TO MY LIFE. 还有,希望秋天去SKYDIVING, CRAZY, BUT I WILL LOVE IT!
 
PS: 另外,令我伤心的事情是, 我的老佳能照相机终于寿终正寝。 在此致哀悼!I WILL MISS YOU MY OLD BUDDY!!

More to Life

I've got it all, but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down, and I'm emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like
I'm missing and why can't I let it go?

There's gotta be more to life
Than chasing out every temporary high to satisfy me
'Cause the more that I
Trippin' up thinkin' there must be more to life
Well, there's life, but I'm sure
There's gotta be more

I've got the time, and I'm wasting it slowly
And, at this moment, I'm halfway out the door
Onto the next thing I'm searching for something that's missing

There's gotta be more
More to life...
