如果。爱

昨天看娱乐新闻时，主持人问来宾谢霆峰喜欢什么样的女孩子。他想也不想的回答，“如果能够说出喜欢这个人的什么，那就不是真的喜欢她了。”

这早熟的男孩说出了我心里的话。很多人都说，我要找的女孩子是长发飘逸，或身材苗条的，或眼睛大大的；有些人则说，我要找的男孩子是粗狂有型的，或驾名车的，或浪漫风趣的。但当你把这些条件列下来时，你正把这些人给物化了。这时你不再是喜欢这个人本身，而是喜欢他的某一部分而已。当他的其他缺点更大于他的优点时，你的眼里心里就再也容不下他了。那又何爱之有呢？

又或许是我太执著或太完美化了。你大可说，喜欢可能就只止于那一刹那的悸动，或只是对某一方面的仰慕而已，无需太偏激。那，爱呢？当你说爱一个人的时候，你的心态是只止于喜欢般的肤浅吗？或是已下定决心要完全的包容这个人呢？

许多人说爱是喜欢的升华，我则认为，爱是喜欢得毫无理由。当你对这个人已经是喜欢得可以忘记他的优点，包容他的缺点，那你就是爱上他了。

非常喜欢《Sepet》里的一段对白，当Orked的朋友取笑她已经被阿龙喜欢上了时，Orked回答，“错了，他不是喜欢上我，他根本不认识我，又何来喜欢上我呢？他，是爱上了我！爱，那是有分别的！”

我是相信一见钟情的。你可以取笑我的浪漫主义，但我宁可相信爱情的命中注定，也不愿看到爱情的廉价贩卖。

Happy CNY everyone...

every year my mom will buy these dunno what it called... i think something like "lak mei" (err... wax plum blossom or something lah... hehehe) (baru i tahu... it's actually called "Pussy Willow" <---- what a dumb name!! hehehe!) i used to think they look horrible, ugly dark brown and furry silver ball after the caps come out... but this time my mom got some advice from from the florist... and look at them - new shoots have come out, even the flowers are growing bigger.... TIPS: change water everyday... if possible, use icy cold water! then the plant can tahan for more than 6 months.

and with these flowers... i would like to wish every bloggers happy and prosperous CNY!!! i'll definitely enjoy my holidays! :)

Memoirs of the Geisha - Hatsumomo my dear

Since yesterday i went to watch "Memoirs of the Geisha" premiere, i might as well write something down. the movie is ok ok only, hollywood standard what, don't expect mediocre and also masterpiece lah... hahaha...

i personally quite like the opening scene, like i told my students today about treatment of a scene... the opening is about how these 2 sisters Satsu and Chiyo been sold to geisha house in Tokyo. the director chose night scene which is definitely suitable to portray certain uncanny and uncertainties. what is good about this opening scene is the direct employed a lot of tracking shots and follow shots, and more often the shots are shaky, bumpy and unstable. i doubt everyone will get nausead by watching that opening scene. moreover, the composition of the shots are normally tighter shot, especially when they reached Tokyo streets, through the lens we see lamp light, doors and houses, smokes etc... so throughout this scene, there's actually no room for us to breath or rest. all these design helps to create tension to audience, audience are forced to experience what the little girl has gone through - helplessness, loneliness, scared in a strange unknown world...

Another thing i like about the movie is the character Hatsumomo acted by Gong Li. Not only because of her superb acting skills, but the character design itself is very 3D. we cannot deny the fact that geishas, no matter how u want to portray them differently, are only prostitutes guised with their artistic appearance and dancing or singing skills. don't get me wrong i'm not having any prejudice about ppl who are in the "lust" industry, but being brought up in this kinda environment when money, luxuries, fighting for survival mean everything in this world, they cannot help but be shallow. Hatsumomo's character successfully reflects the real geisha, flesh and blood, with complete personal history of why she become someone evil, using strategies that only she thinks they are clever... the truth is, i am like Nobu, he got all the rights to hate geishas. let's face it, Memoirs of Geisha is after all kinda autobiography, when ppl tell you their story, they will kinda beautify the story here and there, even when i explain something to my parents, i will always make it a bit beneficial on my part. there is no wonder i doubt the character of Sayuri/Chiyo is really genuine...

But seriously i don't like the ending of the movie, it's too "happy ending" until it looks really fake and pretentious... well, the chairman will never never or can never accept Sayuri after so much things had happened. although the narration at the end kinda telling us that Sayuri can only be some substitute wife and can only be with the chairman after night falls, but i just can't stand the romantic cheesy scene when the chairman broke into tears and hug Sayuri.... it just... too... jarring!! sigh...

There are more to discuss... but time is golden and i've gotten better things to do now... hahahaha... see ya!

rating: 3/5 (worthed watching but don't expect too much, or go to watch it if it's free or if you have few extra dime to spend.) :P

Remind me why i love her so much!!

烟花

稍纵即逝的花火
映红了沉寂的夜空
璀璨却命短
格格不入的承诺

人群中传来了赞叹
仿佛不懂失去的苦痛
蒙蔽了双眼
追求迷途的快乐

眷恋 是因为曾经拥有
遗忘 是伤口难以愈合
那又何必等待 残酷的烟花
那又何必执著 短暂的你我

我的青春回来了

其实是我的青春...豆回来了。 -.-

我右脸颊的活火山自从去云顶后就一直蠢蠢欲动，昨晚终于天惊地裂的爆发了，现在留下了浮肿的印记。另外鼻梁及下巴也陆陆续续的蕴粮，蓄势待发，真可谓...惨不忍睹啊！！！苦矣...

我，只要青春，不要豆！

931

在9月终了及10月开端的那1秒钟
在心里默默许下对你的承诺
以后的每个365天 能有你作伴
祈祷你在这1秒也能感受
单纯的希望这秒能是1天
让我在日历留下印记
虚无的日期 却是我们的纪念日
梦幻般的邂逅 却造就了真实的伴侣
9月31日 日历里不存在的日期
这样的纪念日 我虔诚许愿
我们能走得长长99

月光下，我记得。

触觉突然敏感了起来
当你额头紧压着我下腹
欲望战胜了恐慌
抗拒的手轻拥你入怀
充斥着罪恶感的吉他
还被搁在门栅
我明瞭此行的目的
但脑门至趾头不听使唤
只会反射性的配合
沉浸于被长期压抑的快感

小路上归来的你唤我
眼光只能放在远处朦胧的绿岛
我污亵的身体经不起你注视
你温柔的整理我凌乱的衣衫
“我是无耻之人，”
颤抖的唇颤抖的嗓音
“请你忘了我吧，
我不配让你喜欢。”
耳鸣阵阵刺痛
只听到自己的心在淌血
面对你更难
我选择大步走开
