水墨江南

水墨江南,是我最为心仪的画轴。
峰峦中的涧水,烟树里的人家,
晨炊上的鸟啼,日落下的声,
匍匐在蜇气上的春梦无痕,浮漾于绵雨中的秋叶满山,
或宁静,或喧闹,或尺幅玲珑,或无远弗届。
我心中的江南,永远是一幅常读常新的水墨。


就是这一首诗,我买了水墨江南这本书。

闲聊,书

今天身体少许不适,看来应该是大病的前兆。所以就连看书的心情都像艘船遇浪一样给打沉了,只好坐在电视前发呆,看近代香港武打片。看见演员能打能跳的,就等于给自己的内心作补偿,因为我连到后面拿水也觉得辛苦。因此,就把自己当作是戏剧里的其中一位武功高强的师傅吧!

心灵的补偿,最后变成了羡慕~~~~

那天,我买了几本书。
以文学为主,
史铁生的以前的事
熊召政的水墨江南
还有,易中天的闲话中国人


望病早日康复,赶快把那本《快乐学》看完,
我想看新书啊。。。。。。!

Songs that I liked

Recently, I'm devoted to 2 songs which are "Leaving" by Jesse Mccartney and "What You Got" from Colby O'donnis. Here's the lyrics.

Leavin’

Hey baby girl, I’ve been watching you all day (all day x3)
Man, that thing you got behind you is amazing (amazing x3)
You make me want to take you out and let it rain (let it rain x3)
I know you got a man, but this is what you should say
Why don’t you tell him that

I’m leavin', never to come back again
You found somebody who does it better than he can
No more making you cry, no more them gray skies
Girl, we flying on that G-5, G-5
And we're leavin', never to come back again
So, call your shorty and tell him you found a new man
The one that so, so fly
The one that keep you high
Have you singing all night like, like
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Man she gon' be singing like
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Now, if I talk it, girl you know that I'ma walk it out (walk it out x3)
Man, I put my money, money where my mouth is (mouth is x3)
You're the baddest little thing that I’ve ever seen (ever seen x3)
So I'ma ask you one time, if you got a man
Why don't you tell him that

I’m leavin', never to come back again
You found somebody who does it better than he can
No more making you cry, no more them gray skies
Girl, we flying on that G-5, G-5
And we're leavin', never to come back again
So, call your shorty and tell him you found a new man
The one that so, so fly
The one that keep you high
Have you singing all night like, like
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Man she gon' be singing like
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Don’t stress, don’t stress, don’t stress
Just tell him to the left, left, left
Don’t stress, don’t stress, don’t stress
'Cause we gone and we gone and we gone
No stress, no stress, no stress
Girl, you deserve nothing but the best
No stress, no stress, no stress
Girl, you need to tell him that

I’m leavin', never to come back again
You found somebody who does it better than he can
No more making you cry, no more them gray skies
Girl, we flying on that G-5, G-5
And we're leavin', never to come back again
So, call your shorty and tell him you found a new man
The one that so, so fly
The one that keep you high
Have you singing all night like, like
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Man she gon' be singing like
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh)

She got me singing all night like like like like
Ooooooh
Man she got me singing
She gon' me singing, oh she gon' me singing
She gon' me singing, girl you gon' me singing

What You Got

Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh

(Verse 1:) Colby O'Donis

I peeped you on the phone

And notice that that pinky ring is right enough baby

I know you're not alone
But I could just be wrong
The way them fellas houndin' and sizin' you up baby

(Hook:)

And I like the way you take advantage of every man you love
I see, I seem to know your game girl
But I don't mind if ya come and play ya thug just don't talk too much
I see, I see it so you don't have to say a word
Yeah those guys wanna come treat ya right
Cause you're sweeter than apple pie
Everything that you want you got
Girl you know that you need to stop
Most beautiful thing in sight
Always takin' on the spotlight
Always in the club lookin hot
Girl you know that you need to stop

(Chorus:)

Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Girl you know that you need to stop
Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Girl you know that you need to stop

(Verse 2:) Colby O'Donis

Girl I can tell you want something to love
That's why you hold on to everything that pass you by
Can't resist girl one can't lie
Now tell if you are here for me
Or everybody watchin' you shake from left to right
The way you move got me hypnotized

(Hook:)

The way you take advantage of every man you love
I see, I seem to know your game girl
But I don't mind if ya come and play ya thug just don't talk too much
I see, I see it so you don't have to say a word
Yeah those guys wanna come treat ya right
Cause you're sweeter than apple pie
Everything that you want you got
Girl you know that you need to stop
Most beautiful thing in sight
Always takin' on the spotlight
Always in the club lookin hot
Girl you know that you need to stop

(Chorus:)

Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Eh)
Girl you know that you need to stop
Always talkin' bout what you got (Oooh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Oooh)
Always talkin' bout what you got (Oooh)
Girl you know that you need to stop

(Verse 3:) Akon

Our eyes away from you girl when you get on the floor and do what you do
And errbody wanna come back to that bod and kind of remind myself I'm like you
Be sure that type drive a man crazy and snatch him away from his lady
No matter how hard the man hold back he'll end up callin' you baby
And they never really know what to do once you expose that thang you do
Ya had him crawlin' on hands and knees and ya find a way to get him out that cheese
And why ya thinkin' that you the only dude she off in the mall livin' off of you
Lettin' errbody know she got you but now you feel like a fool

(Hook:)

Yeah those guys wanna come treat ya right
Cause you're sweeter than apple pie
Everything that you want you got
Girl you know that you need to stop
Most beautiful thing in sight
Always takin' on the spotlight
Always in the club lookin hot
Girl you know that you need to stop


F.R.I.E.N.D.S.


Hi, people.

I think there is nothing more fantastically nice than spending just a little bit of time with your friends. Friend who is does not judge you, pick on you, back-pointing on you and talking to you with a mask. It was so great to meet my so-called "best buddies" again last Sunday night. Those buddies were used to be my classmates during primary school. We all agreed to the same thing as after so many years, we are still the same. There is no distance between us although we have not been hanging out for so many years. We still talk, scream and laugh like no tomorrow. That is the reason why I feel completely comfortable being with them.

To my astonishment, Ah Jia become freaking plump now and I almost could not recognize her. After she told me that her female hormones got messed up only I realized that isn't her fault also. I'm sorry of what she is going through now. Anyway, she is still as cheerful as the girl she used to be. Talking with her again reminds me of the moment we spent together when we were 12 years old. Time passed freakingly fast and we are 20's now. It really scare me! I still remember we were the noisiest in the class and always picked-on by the form teacher. We got scolded and punished all the time but nothing can scare us away. As we still behaved the same throughout the whole year, hahahahahhaa~~~~~

Wow~ I could not believe I really become a "Shopaholic" now. Just a few hours shopping with Ah Gao, I bought 5 pairs of earrings, a hand-bag, and skin care stuffs... I think my mom is gonna slaughter me if she knows about it. That's why we all pretended in front of my mom and said Ah Gao bought all those stuffs. Well, she bought a few stuffs too! Also, I have made a mistake before I went shopping. I was wearing a pair of heels to Jusco. OuchZzz, that was freaking torturing for the whole day. I also promised my mom to help her buy some groceries but end up forgot everything. Just chit-chat, shopping, laughing all the way..... What a terrible daughter I am.

Today, I went to Ah Jia's printing factory to have a look. Hmmm, nothing much to explore, just normal printing stuffs as I expected. After that, she went V2 to collect her Diploma Graduation photo album. I was exploring all sample albums they have in the shop and I realized many albums were taken by couples. Not really marriage photo album, but couple photo album sound great to me. Really feel like having an album with George. Unfortunately, he's not here and I'll be leaving soon. Hence, no point doing it and forget about it. =( The most funniest thing is Ah Jia went Kampar by bus today. Everyone says she is "gila" when I told them about it. Because her mom says she waste petrol, play too much and stuffs. Haiz... Moms ~~~

茶啊~ 茶啊~
你怎么就那么的神奇,那么的美妙,那么的完美?

你的魅力,
让我神魂颠倒。
你的香味儿,
技惊四座的昏眩。
你的味道,
让我留齿回甘。

I have tried some excellent tea in KL!

Awww, it has been awhile that I have not been writing my blog. Well, things work pretty well this few weeks. I have been to quite a lot of place like the gorgeous Redang Beach and shopping in KL. I shopped until I really drop. Ooops~~~ spend a lot money then together with my darling George. He bought his stuffs and so do I. Actually we should have been to more places like Penang or Singapore. Unfortunately, my parents were not allow me to go Singapore with him. I was so much wanted to go there as I would like to meet his family and friends. Also, George has made a few Restaurant reservation there which I think it's gonna be very fascinating. Gosh~ I missed those nice stuffs, man. What a waste! Well, I think we can only have our romantic moment again probably next year in either US or Aussie. Anyway, I think we seem to work pretty well as a long-distance relationship compared to others.

***** I'm writing my blog now. Guess what is that George doing? He's sort of laughing in front of the Webcam because he's watching some show. Tsk Tsk Tsk~~

Haiz, someone has complaint that I wrote too much Chinese on my blog. What to do? Suppose to be able to read Chinese but lazy and slack when studying last time. How can he not be able to recognize the word "米"? That's impressive!!! 6 years of Chinese learning plus High School. Dear, you should have gone to some Chinese lesson again. Well, if you don't mind, I could be your personal tutor. Don't worry, I charge very reasonable tuition fees. Hahahahahahahaha~~~~~~

On the last day in KL, we went to my favourite tea shop called HOJO. I was expecting to meet Mr. Akira Hojo and talk to him again about the teas and stuffs. Too bad, he wasn't there and no choice we just chatted with the staffs there. We tried 4 kind of teas there. Those are all fabulous gorgeous good quality fine teas. We tested 明前梅家乌龙井,黄茶君山银针,东方美人,and 日本绿茶之王-玉露. In the process of trying those teas, I could even know how to express myself properly. Firstly, the Long Jing tea is better than those George had brought back. The tea left is not that flatten and looked more greenish. The aroma and taste are also very smooth and fine. As for the yellow tea, I have actually told the whole world that I have FINALLY found this kind of tea selling in Malaysia. As what I expected, Mr. Akira Hojo told me that the village and farm of the yellow is extremely small in China. Not many people can get to drink the original tea, not even in China. That's why I'm very particular of differentiating the real and fake tea. I must have a very good background of the tea then only I will taste it and purchase it. I was freaking excited when I saw this tea selling in the tea shop. I think I have almost break my friend's arm when we saw the tea together as I was holding on her elbow. Hahaha. It didn't disappointment me when I tried the yellow tea. The feeling was just "WOW", and then made me close my eyes and taste the flavour of the tea again inside my mouth. Third one, I would place it the second rank fermentation tea if I have to compare it with the "Classic Diamond". It tastes a little bit sweet, also a little bit bitter, but it work perfectly fine with this 2 flavours mixed together. I'm lovin' it! The last one, my favorite! Very fine, very smooth... People always say that you will have nothing to say when you really has the opportunity to drink a very fine quality tea. It completely make you "speechless". Well, I think that's very true. The tea tastes like Lishan and Alisan tea. These 2 are very excellent teas in Taiwan. But I just can't believe that the yellow tea is more expensive than the excellent Taiwan teas.

I'm so so so devoted to Tea Art, Tea drinking, their culture and history. That is just so fascinating to me. I find every single tea leaf has a life and when boiled water pour onto them, it makes them to have a new life again. Yeah, cannot be denied. This is called ART.

How perfectly satisfying to me when I just have an empty moment to watch and appreciate the tea leaf flow up and down through the water inside the transparent tea cup.

穷忙族



这几天都在报章上看到有关“穷忙族”的报道与咨询。什么是“穷忙族”呢?穷忙族是个舶来词,英语为working poor ,指那些每天超时工作,薪水却没有相应增加,不仅无力置产,甚至还要为养老金担忧的人。报告显示,穷忙是比穷更为恐怖。穷不止,还要忙个心力交瘁,无法让生理与心理获得宁静的平衡。这个难以脱离的社会问题已经在很多个国家曾经发生过,例如日本,韩国,德国,美国等等。现在已经来到马来西亚了。这种现象通常只会发生在城市内而不是生活朴素的乡村。虽然以城市和乡村的薪水相比之下,城市人的薪水固然比乡村人士的多。不过,城市的开支与消费却比乡村的来得恐怖的多了。薪水三千的又怎样?只是汽油费,房租费,手提电话费,保险费,平时吃喝玩乐所需要的费用都不够给了,更不用说储蓄与给钱父母了。为什么社会是这样的呢?通货膨胀一浪接一浪的迎面而来,让人无法顺畅的呼吸。可是,偏偏人工薪水就不会增加,这样下去叫人民怎么活啊?如果这个社会问题变本加厉的话,最不幸的就只有基层的“打工仔”了,也就是现在所谓的穷忙族。唉,我们可爱又可恨的政府,何时才能停止政坛上争得你死我活,暴风暴雨的烽火连战呢?然后抽出点时间窥视一下人民叫天不应,叫地不闻的悲惨困苦。这很难吗?

难道现在21世纪的政府还需要鸡奸,诽谤,诬陷之道为生吗?我国已经为政坛上的事件制造的一连串的国际笑话了,而且应该也成为了世界历史了吧?以前,我还会讥笑台湾政府政客的不检,现在竟沦落到马来西亚这个平平凡凡的国家。看见真是令人心疼不堪啊!
