先生出门

Posted in Main Page at 1:59 pm by Renato

今晚精神萎靡. 答应好今天要来的寒流最终也没有来.

早上穿着白色的勾花小外套出门,实在是热得不耐烦.

因为gordo出门的关系马丽昨夜跑来陪我.回来之前想到有寒流, 还兜去买了件外套.

可是早上出门时那外套被平整地叠好放在纸袋里,穿着短袖的衬衣, 还骂热.

两人一夜都没睡好, 怪异的天气, 盖上被子热了, 踢掉被子又冷了. 露出脚又都怕要被鬼拖走, 于是一个在楼上, 一个在楼下, 都翻身辗转到两点仍然没有见周公.

由于疯狂地吃又咸又辣的鸭勃子, 再配上榨薯片, 而后晚饭更以特咸的四季豆, 宫爆鸡丁及咖哩牛肉继续, 两人不断地灌水, 灌到走起路来肚里有水流的声音, 自然, 连我这样”肾好”能憋的人, 也要一晚跑几回厕所. 而夜晚上厕所, 绝对是麻烦又可怕的事…

白天仍是正常地颓废. 中午和梅, 马丽三人又晃悠去吃了小巷里的潮洲菜. 从小不在那块土地成长的我, 终于找到跟故乡的一点牵连…

晚上gordo回来,此人有一个优点, 就是每每出门, 无论远近, 无论多么匆忙, 总是会带回来一点礼物. 实际上, 在回来的路上, 此人就报告了, 但问起时, 说是秘密, 不能说. 这边的我,自然是缝纫机不踩了, 桌上纸片布板工具一律扔进大袋里, 提起包赶车回家去了.

礼物是一件漂亮的桔红色开什米毛衣, 高的宽领口. 质地非常柔软轻盈. 最喜欢又高又宽的领口, 去年自己买了两件, 冬季不管外套怎么换, 里面的基本不换了. 这件毛衣穿起来简单大气, 算是没有买错了.另外, 又买了一套从十八世纪到二十世纪的完整带图片的costume history, 这两册书就象是大百科书, 抱起来看看, 没有三十斤就奇怪呢. 实在太重,没办法拖去学校给马克炫耀, 不然, 作为costume designer的他绝对要疯掉. 尽管, 现在他远远不能算做正常….

最后的是一本couture的杂志. 图片多, 足以让我盯上半天.

自己也有一个优点, 每每收到礼物, 总是不问价钱. 结婚后更如是.

今晚精神萎靡. 看来要早些睡觉.

今晚就不会害怕了.

886,姐姐,写点中文东西,看你些英文屎偶就不想看了

以上面的话来做标题, 除了想说明我的英文博非常不受欢迎之外(苦心一片, 要知道, 我是为了要同时顾及中外读者包括家里那位才不得不做的下策…), 更要说明的一点, linda同学,你象话吗? 这象是专八考出来的专业人士该说的话吗?!(一声叹息…)

有人呼吁, 还是要响应的.

这博如今已快成一片荒芜了…写点什么呢? 日子似乎趋于平淡….

今天Mark拉来成天扎宽腰带的丹麦学生来workshop的教室,目的旨在把我们正在做的东西show off给低年纪的学生.谁知道环顾四周, 是没有一个做到了象样的地步, 反倒是听到了某同学的怪叫连连, 问为什么, 此同学很委屈地说, I cannot control myself,没法, mark转而对丹麦同学说, 看看, 这就是我们高年纪的学生,没有一个是正常的.丢尽脸啊….

学校这两期的宣传做的不错, 新生人数成倍地涨.每回经过新生课室见到黑压压一片人头就不得不庆幸自己早来了一步.很奇怪的一点,在这个联合国式的学校里, 自己的英文反倒是越讲越简单, 越讲越少了.

   一个月做一件衣服的日子真是清闲,闲得不知所措.期盼能快快把裙子车出来, 好贴上来公诸于众.

最近发现了一学校后面小巷子里的一家潮洲菜馆, 真不错. 尝了一次后疯狂热爱上了, 看来自己多少还是有点潮汕妹子的成分的.

My secret dreams

Posted in Main Page at 3:09 pm by Renato

I have 2 recurring dreams : one is about water, in most cases it is a swimming pool. The other is running late for an important exam or simply going unprepared. The background is always set in my high school, but sometimes it is at the current college and the subject is always drafting, to be more specific, the drafting task is always about a tailored jacket with a difficult collar that I have mo idea how to start.

Checked in the book of dreams, it says that this is mainly about the urge to over-achieve oneself. It says in real life the one who dreams of failing an exam or unprepared for it is actually on the contrary, very likely to perform excellent and successfully.The constant fear of failing would drive him/her to always stay on top. Something like that…

I will give the book the credits. It makes lots of sense in that the scene was either in high school where I encountered the fiercest competition in academic performance and the one subject that I had the hardest time with. Surely I have outlived those difficult times as a winner, they still come back quite often to haunt me. Then maybe it’s  a reflection of what currently is going on. The urge to over-achieve oneself—When I had to think really hard to come up with ideas, or feel disappointed with what has been done.

About the water dreams, it’s still a puzzle to me. The book of dream is not very convincing. Sometimes I think I understand the message, sometimes I don’t .Could it be just another form of sense of underachievement? Or others? The pool is either too crowded, or just too dirty whenever I want to swim. When it is a blue blue sea, it never occurs to me that I could swim. Sometimes I am in the water, but there are just too many people around that I couldn’t swim at all. Managed to swim a few times, it was good yet it was short.

There is a whole world in the dreams for one to explore I believe, I wish somebody could come up with some sort of a dream video recorder and we all could just wake up and play the type.

Guess I will not live to see that product in the market. Just wondering if the Martians already have it? ….
