蜜糖

with pansy at mamie gateaux, tried so many japonais x french cafes & restaurants here in paris. there's something so great about being in cities where you no longer need to navigate your way with a map. cafe breizh's crepe is so great. everyone should try! they also have branches in tokyo! wonder if it's as good! i must say that as much as i love paris very much, i keep missing tokyo! Carrément gingembre or carrément miel? Crêpe with pine honey, Acadia honey and chouchen (honey liqueur), ice cream! crêpe suzette: caramel au beurre, salé à l'orange, quartiers d'orange flambée grand marnière
it's so great my room here in paris is so quiet. thought of the importance of being calm in heart too. 20 little cities. or 1 little city.

春天

shine shine. being in cambridge makes me witness people around me shining all the time. reminds me to work harder, have to spend tomorrow finishing more stuff. thankz ms. pansy for all the great food she spent days preparing in ritz! pink petals' dancing in the air, feel like i can sit under the tree all day. lots of lovely books, wish I could bring them all home. French picturebooks just are so so so different. tomorrow: read, study the books, write, draw. repeat.

周末

french weekend away, bringing back to Parisien home a baby akita inu just one month old, two boxes of red wine from the chateau, 50+ pieces of fresh fromages... lots of fresh air and beautiful colour of the french countryside.
thought of the cat that lives around different houses in whisper from the heart

on a acheter du vin, du fromage. le fromage est bon. le chien est mignon. j'etait conte. well i only learnt french in elementary sch :| voila, bonne nuit  

花兒

voila! feel like experiencing another whole new paris again this time, every time. just never have enough time to sit by the river and draw, i just loved that so much. sanukiya, japanese udon shop, feels like an interesting mixture between tai hang and paris; went shopping for fleurs with an auntie who does interior decoration, never knew such beautiful flowers and decoration could be sooooo inexpensive in wholesale places! will be driving 8+ hours down south tomorrow!! trying to extend my stay :P

後來

這是故事的後來。
在巴黎開初，質疑自己為什麼要離開恬靜的劍橋. 為了節散數千元旅館費住在朋友家，卻要在餐館儲物小角等上數小時，也不是問題，只是有點討厭應籌。尤其在火車上沒停地聽坐在旁邊的人跟我說話，很沒趣，怎麼單獨旅行那麼久仍學不會冷漠點。接近深夜，認為不能再壞時，來接我的人終於出現了，幸好他們全都很好，做的食物很好很好吃，花擺得很美，百合香氣四溢，愛動物，住在巴黎市郊的獨立屋，正計劃到日本旅行，常常要吃日本料理，而且周末會帶我一起開車到法國郊區買花，及看她訂了兩年才有，剛剛出世三星期的秋田犬。要清晨五點出發的活動正適合我。你看，事情最終總會變好，明天還有巴黎的crepe 及其他的好東西，塞納河畔，書店，好喝的咖啡及跟pansy 晚飯等待着我！: )  joyce 四月會來探我啊，好期待！ feel so thankful.

春分

這裹寧靜的生活很好，同時有點奇怪，所有人都去旅行或回家去，晚上坐在房間裹好像劍橋只有我一個人，不過其實這樣還不錯，可以靜靜的慢慢的做我的工作，except十分想我的朋友，討厭熟悉的掛念感覺。日間天氣很好，每天都有不同朋友仔找我到河邊玩，可以跟平常很少一起玩的朋友多點認識，還很不錯，所以總的來說，還挺喜歡這樣的生活，except 明天要到巴黎去。不會在river cam旁看書，而在le seine,不過應該會不錯吧，不要說笑，腦海想想那個有地鐵的大城市，有點吃驚，「習慣」了只需要走路的劍橋城（真的嗎？我不是大半生都住在大城市裹嗎？）太陽照進工作室的桌面，綠茶蛋糕跟咖啡，我在看的blog 令我很想日本。

果園

今天跟同學走路去grantchester, 很想試試punt 到這邊，有人泊下punt在河邊野餐,還自備燒烤爐。見到一個很大的氫氣球(直徑至少70cm)，我很想要一個啊，這是我今年生日想要的，懸着氫氣球的punting trip. 那裹還有一個室外茶室。The history of The Orchard started in 1897 when a group of Cambridge students asked the landlady, Mrs Stevenson of Orchard House, if they could take their tea in the orchard beneath the blossoming fruit trees rather than on the front lawn. This practice soon became the norm, and the place grew in popularity. The next phase in the history of The Orchard began when the poet Rupert Brooke took up lodging in the house in 1909. A graduate student of great popularity in the university community at the time, Brooke soon attracted a great following at the place, among them Virginia Woolf, John Maynard Keynes, E.M. Forster, Bertrand Russell, Augustus John, and Ludwig Wittgenstein – the so-called Grantchester Group, or the neo-pagans as Woolf called them.
sometimes my dependence bugs me. esp since it's so paradoxical.
