Ann Arobr, one last month

Arrived last night, exhausted.

大概因为是最后一次在这里停留,走到哪里都是回忆,整个中校园让我心酸。
和以前要离开一个地方的恋恋不舍很不同,这一回,是别样的痛。

5/1
好象从来没有这样过,我一个人,坐在diag,等grad library开门。钟楼的声音悠长,满眼郁郁葱葱,多云的天。就像十几岁的时候,茫然的怅惘,在初夏,多少年,都一样。

电话里,Eugene的声音异常遥远,听他叫妈咪,真想抱抱他。

在AA的时候总是我寂寞的时候。

用手机拍了两张grad library相片。这小城,没有别的地方我更爱。进了门,仿佛全身每个毛孔都找到家的感觉,自在舒服。那时候,为了每学期的大小论文,在书架间穿梭,有充满希望的快乐,当然,写作时候的艰难困苦又是另外的故事了。以前,二楼的电脑是没办法编辑文件的,只能打印。现在装了office,可以就坐在那里写东西。我觉得我可以在那里永远永远坐下去。。。

松鼠们一如既往。只是没见到那个永远在ugli门前弹唱的人。

Cinderella

忙里偷闲,瞧了些新近流行的中文“偶像剧”。

爱情故事总也脱不了灰姑娘童话的套路。
为什么总是要把剧情编成这样,可爱女孩要靠钻石王老五的爱情拯救,是女人永远爱做这样的梦,还是男人非靠这样的框架满足自己的虚荣?

一边习惯性地嘲笑无聊,一边也意识到,我其实不过是被娱乐的电视观众中的一个。而且,而且,年少时喜欢向往的沧桑感觉再也没有吸引力,青春已然过去的现在,终于发现,年轻的笑容,单纯的美就算只是skin-deep, 确实可以让人忘掉些烦恼,很好很好。

是我在变老吗?还是,关于深度的研究,让我疲惫?

八年前的我,怎么会想到,在关于文学博士的梦想就要实现的时候,我会发现自己,其实,也爱明星帅哥??

So he has it as the title poem of a new book now. and i need to get a copy. yes. for the tears it brought to my eyes when i listened to his reading, for the first time in my life. would never forget the experience-- crying over a poem heard, feeling extremely sad yet lucky to be there in the audience...

-----------
Bought a pot, soil, gardening tools for a Osteospermum/African Daisy/Blue-eyed Daisy, and Eugene had a wonderful time taking care of the flower. The first afternoon, he stayed beside the pot and wouldn't leave it, saying he'd keep her company.

Today's poet is brilliant in catching details-- making lovely little narratives.
