難得

The best cure for a bad day is a good friend.


Okay. Since the previous posts were too gloomy, let's have something fun!

I like how 4 of us make effort to meet up every now and then. Of course, we are all busy. But, to make time, is something that warm my heart. It means this friendship is important, is worth our time. I can't help but I tend to make comparison.

Like my ex-colleagues, we have tons of plans, the list keep growing but none has really fulfilled. Even a simple meet-up that requires full headcount, not once in this year can we all make it. In a nutshell, everyone is not working hard enough to make it work. 'Whatever, really.' 

So I would say, to be able to find friends that can click and have endless topic and most importantly, everyone in the gang that treasures the friendship is way too awesome. I mean everyone has been saying forever and forever is just too cliché. Who really trust forever nowadays? At least, I'm not a 'forever' believer. But I treasure every moment we'd be together. :)

And the meet-up last night, we've got a new member. What surprised us is that, she managed to blend in well. Such a sweet girl. If we're not in 'ghost festival', we would have make it to the peak of Broga Hill this morning. Sigh. To have plan that is so spontaneous, is really really rare. We'll surely make the plan on before this year ends!

Can't wait our next meet-up. These peeps are like rare Pokemón!

Your Lie In April

「君は君だよ。『君らしく』なんて曖昧なものじゃない。
何やったって変わったってカンケーない。君はどうせ君だよ。」
ーー宮園かおり「四月は君の嘘」



You are you. Just be yourself is not an ambiguous thing. What you did and how you changed, it doesn't matter. Because, you're just you.

*You are born original. Don't die a copy.*

「いくつもの知らない自分を発見して・・・いくつもの知らない自分と向き合う。それもたぶん、恋をするってことなのかな。」

But not all stories have a happy ending. You don't meet people by accident. They are meant to cross your path for a reason, either you need them to change your life or you'll be the one that will change theirs. You meet thousands of people, and none of them really touch you. And then you meet one person, your life changed forever.

届くかな?届くといいな。
I have only tell one lie since meeting you in that cherry blossom season. 
- that is - I like your best friend.

抬頭仰望

發覺這世界永遠太少深刻 因此花一天改變一切習慣
發覺這世界永遠太多蹺蹊 因此花一天擁有一切運氣
消失太快 捉得到太少 因此花一天感覺一切是愛
- «今天只做一件事» 陳奕迅 -


活在這個人人都低頭的時代
再加上剛剛推出的Pokémon
走到哪都可以看到屏幕裡都是同一個遊戲
當然自己也不例外


但如果人們可以暫時放下手機
抬頭仰望
欣賞每一次都不一樣的天空
心情會不會不會那麼煩躁

並不一定是要看天空
身邊一定會有一些你值得欣賞的風景

不知道你有沒有發現
最近的夕陽都很美
我覺得這些都得運氣好才能看得到

每當看到夕陽
總會特別想念那位
互相分享天空的照片的他
我們還曾經說過
應該去當天文學家
研究天空與星星


每次都會忍不住想
落到如斯田地是自己造就的
但其實過去的就應該讓它過去
為何總是要和自己過不去

也許一開始靠得太近
就像刺蝟那樣
冷的時候
想讓彼此靠近一些
互相取暖
但是靠得太近
便會被對方的刺給刺傷
於是
一直調整彼此的
姿勢和距離
直到能互相取暖之於
又不會刺傷對方

我重申
這不是傷感
這是有感而發
你不覺得
多愁善感的文字很美嗎

人越大
越覺得人與人之間的橋樑
其實很脆弱
每個人都很玻璃心
要找到那個彼此能互相忍讓的人很難

最近我才被朋友說
怎麼脾氣那麼暴躁易怒
其實也不止朋友
連家人也這麼說


做人真難

Reply 回覆

At the end,
I sent him a "Hi?"

And he replied, but I didn't read it immediately.
Instead, I switched off my data.
Hoping that, besides "Hi, how are you?",
There would be something more.

After few hours,
The conversation remained
At the moment before I switched off my data.
Alright, I forcefully replied standard answer - "I'm fine & you?"

Few moments later,
"I have been well too.
Sorry for not texting lately."

Ahh, sorry but no explanation.
Okay, fine!
"Is there any reason that I need to know?"

"Not particularly.
Just didn't feel like texting.
No reason at all."

"Okay. Got it.
Flash in the pan right?"

Thank you for not replying after that.
So that I know I can put a full stop right there.
Even though maybe it's just me that have to deal with the aftermath.

W


When his world began to cripple, my mind blows up too. Damn! Another long week before the next episode is out.

Good storyline always fascinated me, especially those that wouldn't happen in the world that we lived in. It's only episode 4 and the scriptwriter made this kind of ending! I wonder how the story goes on.

And - this drama makes me wanna write stories! I'll probably start putting this drama in words. :') I'm not a good storyteller though...

Endless conversation



Maybe I just took things for granted that it ended up this way. 
I'm still trying hard to get out of the bad habit that I grew.

Lucky

A strong friendship doesn't need daily conversation or being together. As long as the relationship lives in the heart, true friends never part.


Have you ever wonder your bff is the opposite sex of yours?

I often tease A, or vice versa - why she's not a boy? We did things for each other hoping that boys would do the same for us. When she changed her spectacles, I would comment - oh, new specs! Or when I texted her, she would reply - I was thinking about you and about to text you.

Just like these few days, I told her I was sick, flu and cough. She every few hours texting me asking whether am I feeling any better, or have I visited the doctor. She's way too sweet to be only my bff. Hahaha! I hope she find her Mr Right soon enough, so she can share her happiness with me. :)

I'm so blessed to have her in my life. We usually shared anything and everything that happened in our lives, also some stupid questions that we come across. And I agreed that communication is two-way. One do the talking and the other one do the listening, sometimes the other way round.

Friendship is just like any other kind of relationship - that needs to maintain. We're that kind of friends that doesn't need much talking but when we meet, we can talk forever. I know nothing can last forever, but I hope she stays forever.

Sounded kind of taking things for granted right? Yea, maybe I'm selfish. But I really hope so. I told her my nose blocked then she said we're taking breathing for granted. *roll my eyes*

Let's live together if we end up being forever alone. Muahaha! :D

Simply

不確定就別親吻
感情很容易毀掉一個人
一個人若不夠狠
愛淡了不離不棄更殘忍
- «還是要幸福» 田馥甄 -


Just like the lyrics suggested - don't kiss if you're unsure, as being in a relationship can easily broke a person; it's cruel if you're not harsh enough to leave when the love has faded.

Been mulling over things lately. Mostly curious how couples maintain their relationship, especially now when everyone spend most of the time on working. How can they manage the time? He once said - love is an idea, a concept. Being in love means you find someone that basically share the same concept.

I would say finding someone that you can share anything and everything with and someone that after listening all your shits and still stay, that's love. Because nowadays communication has became too convenient, everyone takes it for granted. If you're single? No problem, there is Tinder out there. If you're bored and wanted someone to talk with? There are plenty chatting apps out there. But you can't feel warmth from all these. Because it's not real, somehow. Once is enough. The one standing right in front you, embrace all your weakness and flaws, giving you a big hug (not just saying) - this is real. Guess I just haven't got the chance to meet this person in real.

A, gimme a hug when we meet next time. I'm in need a big warm hug! :(

後菜鳥的燦爛時代

職場上有一群人,他們對自己的工作已沒有太大熱忱,過一天算一天,上班只想午餐吃哪家,下班只想去哪玩,一週大事是決定去哪裡露營旅遊,工作只是希望能有個固定收入就好,既升不了官,但也非菜鳥,我們通稱他們為「後菜鳥」。
«後菜鳥的燦爛時代»


剛追完這部讓我少女心氾濫的典型偶像劇。雖然都是毫無新意老掉牙的愛情故事情節,但還是無法說不地大愛。

∅ 請慎入,接下來所寫的含有劇透。

而這部劇講述的是執行長和業務的愛情故事。看完整部劇後的感想是一一天啊!現在不可能還有那麼長情的人啊?十年前的暗戀到十年後成為更好的人再度出現,還不要緊,暗中幫助女主角走出舒適圈,讓她也成為更好的人。我想,這種互相扶持成長的愛情真的很難得。

雖然說是典型,但劇組花了不少心思讓整部劇看起來典型得來,卻又不會太油膩。我喜歡男女主角重遇之後,中間穿插他們高中時代的片段而且從那些回憶片段就能知道當時紀文凱就很喜歡鐘雨棠。


其中最窩心的記憶片段要從鍾雨棠家欠下來的債開始說起。紀文凱替她家還了債,理所當然成為了她的債主。為了還債,鍾雨棠任紀文凱差遣。每完成他給的任務,他就送她拼圖片,湊足500片,債務就全抵銷。當然,如果劇情真的是以湊足500片拼圖片的速度進行的話,恐怕沒人追看了吧?湊到一半,他們便成為了男女朋友。紀文凱也把剩下的拼圖片給了鍾雨棠,成了她需要完成的作業。他說只要她把拼圖給拼完,她想知道的所有答案自然就會揭曉。最後把那拼圖拼完,是他與她的合照,只是那個他身穿獅子吉祥物的外套,所以當時的她沒認出是他。

話說,這部劇為什麼命名為«後菜鳥的燦爛時代»?是因為女主角鍾雨棠在秘書部待了4年, 年資說長不長; 說短不短,即不是菜鳥,也還不是老鳥一一俗稱後菜鳥。

最後的最後,臺灣偶像劇總是喜歡在每一集裡加入一句有意思的臺詞,而«後菜鳥»也不例外。參閱這裡有«後菜鳥筆記»。

Back to zero? One?

一個人相信 一個人的原因
不是因為有太多的猶豫
一個人的秘密是尋找一個特別的你
- «一個人» 韋禮安 -



About one month ago, she worked overtime and eaten a bowl of microwaved asam laksa maggi with cheese. Today, the same scenario, but somewhat things have changed.

She was still trying to figure out the feeling she felt. Before she can grasp anything, everything had became a history.

Staring at the maggi mee, wondering why things turned out this way. She knows people come and go, but what she didn't know was she didn't see the end came this soon. They have shared so many, so deep, and now, back to zero.



Habits can be scary sometimes, but she has faith that time will heal everything, eventually...
