甲蟲

When I get to camb., I wanna paint my bike with red and white polka dots! Steve told me he saw people wearing ladybug helmets, Nick said that must be me! Jacky actually thought my name is 毛圓圓，Nick said at least get the surname right, such as 圓毛毛. Had lunch at Cépage, and a nice tennis game. Wonder how life would be like in camb. hope it'd be nice...Getting bike is like a step of building a life in a place, but this is another momentary stopover, still can't resist to build something that is home-like. Kinda wanna build my own long term dwelling place sometimes, end the nomadic life, grow light purple flowers, and paint a bike which I don't have to sell it away after a year or so, display my books on the wall and not have to set them oceans apart, have a studio. I quite like the growing of such desire in me, though slowly. Meanwhile, I miss the trains in Japan.

無花果

distraction required in midst of physical and mental weakness. have been looking forward to leaving these days, for various reasons, though i would miss my home here very much, but i have a longing towards little river and green fields. the opening of apple store was really fun! たしかに i'd miss my nihongo kurasu, painting students and even cuhk's architecture studio :P have found jap classes, yoga and tennis court for my time there though, hopefully can jog and paint too - so not just reading & writing :P have been reading 'The child that books built,' it's amazing how much one could recall from your memory if you were to do so.

my first time to the library in the neighbourhood was during a library class in grade one, it's a single storey concrete building surrounded by low bushes, the children section is in the end, surrounded by windows, and has a sinked space in the middle, it's a story-telling space, children had to put books there after reading. imagine if one night, all fictional characters woke up from their books in the library... it would be so funny, a Midnight in Paris kinda story. who would u fear most? voldemort? who would voldemort fear most? 黃蓉？LOL. At that time, I couldn't read a lot of the words in the novels, there were holes in the text corresponding to the parts I couldn't understand. Words like prophesying, rekindled and adornment had never been spoken in my hearing. No one had ever told me aloud to behold something, but unknown words picked up meaning from the words around them, meanings that worked well enough in context, though usually when I do look up the dictionary, I could be completely wrong.

just wanna have liquid food, making mashed spinach & tiny diced hokkaido pumpkin in clam chowder soupy soupy tonite.

比薩

不定期比薩聚會。

星期五晚上，一起看了很多紀錄片！

從麻鷹背上的攝影機，冒生命危險跳進海裏捕魚的人，山區的眼醫，到天葬，聽起來很古怪的一群人。不同的工作/學術背景引起多樣化的議論，有media ethics 的角度，對航空的迷戀，政治的角度，也有......... 研究者與病人含糊不清的bi-polar 人士。整體來說，就是很吵。什麼時候會再見，到時大家會在做什麼？たのしみ, it's such a great night.うるさいが本当に楽しかった。高校から七年になった、その時からLaos/LipaのChildren's Villageへ行ったり、夜までノートをしたり、今までも自分の夢を持って、面白いことをしてる、こんなにおもしろくていい友達があること、幸せと思う。

昨日、QMへ行った、黃欣さんと昼ご飯を食べた、楽しかった。今日昼ご飯の後、Holingさんのお父さんの事務所へ行った、出張したから、せっかく城市大学へいった、鍵が忘れてしまいました！残念、だから、Department of Social Studiesへ行った。その辺、たくさんソファがあるんです、割と快適な。Holingさんといつでもたくさんを話せる、特に建築や教育など、何でも楽しいに話している！たくさん本を読まなくてはいかない、ちょっと大変...

秋天

今天做了很多跟送貨有關的事情。

秋天，是不是快要來臨？

今天的花很香！

秋風

這數天完成了三支燈！還要做咭。今天總算有點收獲，雖然晚飯後暈倒，但晚餐很好吃，要是有錢，我們應該還要吃蝦，蜆等，呵呵。暈倒最危險的是會跌落地，而且可能會撞到。幸好好朋友在身邊，真好。還有冷水。想快點把手上工作清理，不知怎地，每天已經很努力，仍然有很多未做完的事。但不要緊，因為不是壞事。

有些朋友已經聽過這個故事，遲些把它完整放上來。
