《伟言耸听》读后感

最近读了杨君伟的《伟言耸听》,有很多感想。突然有写作的冲动,哈哈!不过也知道自己的语文能力不怎么样,所以只有想法,没有行动。真得很糟糕!

把话题转回《伟》吧;我极力推荐这本书。前些日子就在书店看到售卖《伟》,但我从来没有买书的习惯,不知道值不值得买。最后还是没有把钱花在书上。后来意外的在图书馆看到这本书就在架子上,想都不想就立刻把它借回家了。

58篇短文叙述他的经历和感想。有些幽默有趣;有些道理满满。我从中找到了娱乐;也领悟了很多。他写的东西都很贴近人生,有些东西读了有些熟悉,好像自己也经历过,遇到过。有一篇提到他曾经到初级学院宣传《My Voice》,他是编辑之一。读了那篇散文后才记起以前在南初的时候他也来过,就不知道是不是文章中所提到的那所初院了。读着,读着,真得觉得越来越像, 但又不敢乱下定论,毕竟事情离现在也有好几年了,记忆是有点模糊了。我甚至已经忘记自己也买了那本书,而他也在书里写了一些鼓励的话。当时心里是高兴的,因为杨君伟是一位我很喜欢的DJ写的。哈哈!不过自从他离开了93.3fm以后就没听他的节目了,因为我还是该电台的忠实听众。不过,的确很想念他的声音,如果有他的舞台剧作品,我一定要去看!

不好意思,写读后感变成写偶像。所以我才说我不适合写作嘛,一点都没错!话说回来了,如果这本书不是我的偶像写的,我会读吗?如果是其他艺人或DJ写的,我也许会考虑吧。:P

Ok... the book touches on many issues worth our consideration and serves as a very good source of entertainment too. 读的时候真的是有时会偷笑,但点头赞成的时候更多。所以真的很佩服啊!之前也读过他的《唱所欲言》,记录一些他以往做过的一些艺人访问。他真的是一个很认真的人。会在任何一个工作前做最充足的准备,绝对不会是一知半解的就上场了。《伟》里的一篇也提到他答应担任莫个舞蹈作品演出后的dialogue session host and translator。他知道自己不是很了解舞蹈,所以很积极的查阅资料,还特地找了一本跟舞蹈同名的书来增加对该舞蹈的了解。这可说是诚意和态度100分了吧。

什么时候,让我也出一本书?哈哈!也许在等个十年吧。(这只是安慰自己的话而已)以后有好看的书再介绍。也许很快,因为今天又借了书。:)))

Music Ties

I think that the concert was awesome!!!

Although the first song was more difficult to understand... the rest of the songs were very nice. Esp. the solos by the Huangs. Maybe becos i'm not so much of a Pipa fan lah... Of cos her skills are like superb... but the song is a bit too long. I'm still wondering why didn't the couple had a duet song? Anyhows.. HuangChenDa's 酒狂 was nice... very unique and interesting... his father's 天山 is better.... everything... his 音色 is really very ear-catching (i know there isn't such a word)... it's really very 悦耳 lah... Yupx... plus the song is nice too. So no complains about that. But of cos... the highlight of the night is really the 广东音乐 double concerto by the Huangs... Their skills are really like... unbeatable. haha! Then they played 赛马 for encore... So expected.. But cool lah. cos it's double melody mah.. haha. But i thought it could be some other song that can like surprise the audience. Oh wells... nvm. Overall... A concert really worth watching!! :)

Omg... I really regretted not buying the dvd i saw at bras basah once... featuring HuangAnYuan playing Butterfly Lovers with accompaniment by HKCO. After that i wanted to go back and buy another day but dun have already!!! And i haven't seen it since then. Dotx.

爱,不需要让你知道

寒冷的二月,山中茫茫的雪中,一男一女艰难的移动着,他们都是户外运动的爱好者,相约进山看雪,途中意外碰到暴风雪,迷了路。

女人很喜欢男人,他们之间没有表白过,因为之前,女人仅仅是从男人的眼神中,捕捉到喜欢的信息,但是不确定。他们两个都是骄傲而怕受伤的人,因为不确定,所以不表白。

大雪中,他们手拉着手,说着鼓励的话,在齐膝的雪中艰难的前进,不停的走着,常常走不了几步就会摔交,衣服已经湿透了,被冷风一吹,两个人都嘴唇青紫。体力消耗很大,但女人仍然边走边笑,男人看着女人,轻松不少。尽管都在微笑,但是他们知道,死神正一步步向他们逼近。已经三天了,周围仍然是一望无际的雪地,体力已经透支,最糟糕的是,食物也越来越少了。

为了生存,他们把所有的食物都集中到了女人的背包里,由女人好好规划,控制每天的食量,以应付最糟糕的情形。更不幸的事情发生了,由于雪太深,在路过一片树林时,女人掉进雪洞里扭伤了脚,整个腿肿了起来,每走一步都要忍住巨痛。男人已经极度疲惫了,没可能背上女人前进,而且,女人也拒绝男人背她,她很清楚,这样的话,他们会一起死在山上。斟酌再三,只能由男人独自前行,找到出山的路,寻求救援。男人为女人支好了帐篷,安顿好。他们整理了彼此的背包,女人告诉男人“还剩下八块压缩饼干,咱们一人四块“,随后说“你出去帮我烧点水好吗?“男人烧好水送进帐篷来,女人说饼干分好了,装在两个包的头包里,男人摸了摸两个背包的头包,凭感觉,的确是一样多。他拉着女人的手,说“等着我,我马上回来”。直到这时,他们仍然没有向对方表达自己的爱恋,他们都是理智的人,这种情况下,可能一分手就是永别,如果表白之日就是永别之日,未免太过残忍。

男人根本不知道自己能不能走出去,如果,他们中只有一人能生存,那何必让对方用一生的时间,去忘记一个逝去的爱人呢?记得一个普通的朋友就足够了。女人无限依恋的看着男人“我等你,我知道你能走出去。”男人站起身,替女人盖好睡袋,转身。每走一段路,男人都做下记号,他一心想着找到救援,回去接女人,饿了,啃一口饼干,渴了,吃两口雪。男人的速度越来越慢,他提醒自己,不能停,只要停下就意味着死亡,那女人也就没救了,他努力坚持,他告诉自己,一定要出去。 终于,男人耗尽了最后一丝气力,倒下,失去知觉前,他想,女人的食物还够吗?还能撑住吗?醒来,男人发现自己躺在救援队的帐篷里,朋友发现他们没有按时出山,救援队已经进山搜救很久了。其实救援队一开始并没有发现男人,他们先找到女人的帐篷,然后顺着男人留下的记号,找到几乎冻僵奄奄一息的男人。男人的体温渐渐恢复,他问“她呢”,大家不语,他突然发现,救援队的成员眼角都隐隐有着泪光。男人一呆,“告诉我,她呢”,挣扎着要出去找她。救援队长用颤抖的声音说“别找了,她不在了,我们发现她的时候,已经去了,可能是出去融雪烧水,没力气回到帐篷,冻死了”……

三年后,男人结婚了,是一个和女人一样喜欢户外运动、喜欢笑的可爱女孩。女人走后,这个女孩陪男人走过了最难受的日子,男人逐渐快乐起来,有了感情,两人走到了一起,有时,他们也会一起怀念惋惜女人的逝去,也更珍惜现在的感情。当年的救援队长参加了他的婚礼。婚礼后,队长来到女人的墓地,女人在照片上,笑容依旧美丽。队长对女人说“你放心吧,他结婚了,很幸福“。队长流泪了,其实,当年,队长说谎了。女人不是冻死的,救援队发现她的时候,她好好的躺在帐篷里,睡袋盖的很好,男人替她盖好的,她舍不得动。女人是饿死的,打开她的头包,只有几块平平的石板,没有什么压缩饼干,剩下的压缩饼干,不是八块,只有四块而已。女人,把剩下的所有食物,都留给了男人,她真的,很爱他。队长发现女人的时候,她早已经僵硬的手中紧紧攥着一张小纸条:“我肯定撑不到他回来了,别告诉他,他该有自己的生活。”


Saw this story on Mary Bukoh's blog. A very touching story isn't it? Even after reading it for the 2nd time... tears can still flow down easily... indeed a very brave woman. 她那无私的爱让人钦佩。有很多人认为死前不应该还有什么遗憾,有什么就说什么,所以就算只剩下一口气也要跟所爱的人告白。如果两个人都要死了,也许就不一样。但如果只剩下一个人,那最后一刻的告白就真的太残忍了...

Feeling really emo lately... i think it's partly becos of the quake... just feel that 人生是那么的脆弱... Why is life so fragile? And these ppl had to be taken away from their loved ones so suddenly and violently. That day a guy who was trapped under heavy weight for many days was being discovered still alive and they tried to save him for over 10hours. He was given food and drink i think... and they even let him give a call to his family... But that was the last time he ever talked to them... Although he was eventually saved... he died 10min after he was taken out of the pile. I was taken back by the incident. He hang on for so many days already... 100+hours without food and drink... but he couldn't even hang on any further than the 10min out of the danger. Why? I dun understand... 已经经历那么多了,为什么不坚持下去? Even the reporter at the scene was crying and questioning him. 难道人生就真的那么不堪一击? 那么脆弱?

A bit random

I think i'm feeling a bit emo these days... have a lot of feelings but just couldn't pen them down properly... feelings towards too many things... and i think i got a bit confused. Well... I'll just take it ya... it's not big deal. :)

I think also i have too little things to do... or practically nothing to do... i haven't stepped out of the house for 2 days.. except for lunch downstairs ytd. after that i was home until now. it's really bad i know... the whole week the only day i'm properly out of my house to somewhere far was on wed. the rest of the days i either stayed at home the whole time or only stepped out for lunch. ridiculous lifestyle i would say. not that i really like it.. but rather... i have nowhere to go.. and nobody to go with. that's why i miss school. But school will nv be the same anyway..

Aiya... i dunno what else to type le... So at the end of the entry.. just want to put a small ad...
SYCO Annual Concert is Coming!!! 7th June 08. 8pm. Singapore Conference Hall. I think this is the last year i'm joining anyway, and the last performance i'm having with them as well. So come support! :)

Yangtze Three Gorges Tour Prelude

Hi!! I'm back... Touched down at 5.05am. Sianx. came home and slept quite straight away... couldn't sleep on the plan due to the return of my blocked nose and bad sore throat on the last day of the trip. i.e. ytd. dotx. But i wun start blogging abt my trip yet... cos photos not uploaded yet... i took 200+ photos and abt 20 videos with the digi cam... and my sis took 1000+ pictures with her pro cam... haha! And most of the photos with ppl inside are taken with her cam... mine mostly consist of only the scenery... :)

Anyway... didn't really buy anything back... basically cos we spent quite an amount of time on travelling on plane, bus and cruise... 4nights on the cruise. Thou the best in China - Yangtze 1, not the best u can get... there's nothing much on the cruise that we can do except to follow the schedule given by the cruise, i.e. to listen to the guide showing us scenery that we should look at along the three gorges along Yangtze River, and then go out to the room balcony to look at scenery and take some sea breeze on our leisure time, and also go on land for half a day every morning to visit some tourist spots and return to the cruise before lunch. There were some talks and demostrations done by artists selling their works on the cruise but some were not really interesting topics... so on our free time we either sleep, walk ard, or watch tv. Been watching the Thomas cup and Uber cup on CCTV olympics channel... it's a badminton tournament btw. Yup. that's all.. So a brief intro. Not as boring as it seems.. cos the scenery is really nice and there were some nice experience. (erm. excluding the earthquake part) Not that we experienced it... but it brings a lot of other effects... Anyway i'll talk abt it again.

Now.. let me nurse my flu first. bye.

Pre-tour

It's only less than 5 hours be4 i have to leave home for my flight at 7am to my holiday with my family except for er-jie... she will be lonely at home i think... for the next 10 days... i hope she dun miss me too much. haha!

Anyway... just to let my readers (if there's any) know that i'm not dead for the next 10days or so. I'll be away to 张家界, 长江三峡.

The madness of this trip is as mentioned above.. taking a 7am flight there... like we have to reach the airport slightly before 5am~! And why am i not sleeping yet? 2 reasons.. I'm already not used to sleeping early... and I'm having a rather bad blocked nose now, so it's not easy to get to sleep either. I dunno what's wrong but i caught a cold in this super warm weather. Sighs. Hopefully i will get better so that i can play to my fullest~

Yeah... then another mad thing is that i will reach sg ard 6-7am on 19may too... it means overnight flight again. dotx. But it also means that we are making full use of the 10days. haha. Hopefully it's an enjoyable getaway. Cos i'm seriously bored of my holidays in singapore already. lol! =x

Ok.. See u all my friends when i come back! :)))
