樂理.....我又來了

兩年多前, 給自己「充分」的理由, 決定將學到2/3的五級樂理放低, 無限期地押後考試……
今年決定要重拾樂理, 好好的做練習, 好好的去考, 好好的拿個合格回來, 那明年就有機會考六級長笛了…

但點解樂理要好似數學咁, 要計數….哎呀…真係煩！

堅強的她

今日在searched其他東西時不經意地讀了一個陌生女孩子的blog, 這個陌生人的blog吸引我讀下去的原因是, 她患有肝癌,很嚴重那種,她年記應該約20多30歲左右吧....

在她的blog, 你會感覺到生命力, 她有低落的時候, 但好多篇的日誌裡, 她都是很樂觀, 你會常常看到"Hahahahaha..."這類歡樂的表達在當中。頭髮因化療全都掉光了, 但她也可以從買假髮事件中發現有趣的地方! 就如她在blog裡寫「....將自己的經歷share 給大家.目的係希望讓更多人知道患癌雖然係辛苦.但有時都會有讓人開心及感恩的地方....」
同一個經歷, 用不同的角度去看, 出來的影響力很不一樣。

她雖然有個致命的病, 但她對生命負責任, 真正的在「活著」。
她是一個很堅強的人, 我自己忽然係度唸, 如果我有同樣的遭遇, 我估我一定係會好軟弱。

雖然我唔認識你, 但真的很希望你能夠好番。

喜歡『不能說的．秘密』

回程在飛機上看了『不能說的．秘密』, 說實的, 我不是「周董」的粉絲, 但出乎意料之外, 我喜歡這部電影, 很浪漫、又帶著懸疑、音樂好好聽、還有那一點點的「笑位」。

小倫和小雨在舊琴室四手聯彈、騎腳踏車送回家、在海邊吃冰淇淋、還有他們那似是而非的對答, 都帶出了小情人的浪漫。

鬥琴那一場戲, 除了「周董」很厲害的琴藝之外, 在鬥琴的背後, 有著愛情 -- 原來小倫是為了要送那很難找的琴譜給小雨。

小倫每天放學都在同一個菜檔大嬸的手中拿已為他準備好的菜回家煮飯, 那場與父共舞的一幕, 都讓我看得很有意思。

故事發展下去, 那不能說的秘密慢慢的被揭露出來, 是不可思議的, 但無損電影整體的感覺。

桂綸鎂 - 第一次聽見她的名字, 覺得怎麼會有人的名字是這般的不平凡, 不過她真的把路小雨這角色演得很好。

回來後, 已急不及待要把電影soundtrack買回來…

百感交集

A week in Tokyo has passed, different feelings come around in this week.

Frustration - Tokyo is a place that most would love for shopping and for food. But this time I find, not knowing the language has really caused a lot of hiccups at work. A meeting that can normally finish in an hour has been doubled in time. 還常有種書到用時方恨少的感覺;

Lonely - everyone around you are talking in a foreign language and you don't really have "friends" in here, makes you feel more lonely than you can imagine. The frequent travelling over the last few months brings me an "unsettled" yet routine feeling. Routine: pick what movie to see on the plane, buy bottled water to ensure not to become dehydrated, watch TV in hotel room; Unsettled: missed a lot of things back home.

Tired - the long day of work and the mental pressure of not being able to finish certain task can push you to the point of exhaustion;

Fear - the other non-Japan work issues are getting more complicated, all has come back to haunt me again; not knowing but thinking of what might happen is really emotionally draining;

While having all these mixed feelings, the weak faith behind the back of my mind that God is control and everything is possible in Him, has been the strength to continue on. Faith seems to come "live" in times of adversity.

Move on, another week to go....

Tokyo again

In Tokyo again for work. The sleeplessness last night has made me very tired today.

Queued up for almost 1.5 hours in the Tokyo airport immigration, it's driving me nuts. While many other things in Japan are neatly handled, really can't believe the airport immigration can be so disorganized.

A long week to go.....
