迷醉在烟与花的季节
July 08 Japanese food最近喜欢上一家叫sushi Hiro的日式餐厅，老板一进门便90度大鞠躬，待客颇为热情，而且可以和你大谈日本人对饮食的看法，颇为有趣。而且价格公道，绝对童叟无欺。想想也是,原来年少时喝酒吃肉，总觉得那点鱼片蟹条填之牙缝而不满，何必吃他。如今色老体衰，却时常以养生之到提醒鞭策自己。于是乎中上了日式料理之毒。
提到日本料理，本人原来颇为不屑，其一是因其身举东海一隅，本理应为中华之大统之一脉。其却自视独创一格，故不屑之。其二是因为本人颇好喝酒嚼肉大快朵颐之感，每每去罢过后总有隔靴挠痒之憾，让我乘兴而去败兴而归。 可近来几次却让我觉得，日本料理之风行必有其独到之出，要不然何以周遭好友无不对其趋之若骛。日本料理种类繁多，不能一概而论。譬如sushi,sashimi,temaki,tempura, udon,soba..林林总总，但总而言之便是:生、冷、少油、种类多、注重卖相。日本料理注重细节，或许和日本人的性格特点多少有关。每每周末闲暇，约数友人，围坐bar前，sushi若干，sake一壶，忽然天南地北海阔天空。食之“精”也，忌脑满肠肥。 眼见桌前杯盘罗列，肚中略有感觉。几杯黄汤下肚，飘飘然离坐。于是乎，什么困惑和不满都跑去度假了。 回到家中，酣然入睡，实为人生美事一件。也许人到一定年纪便会开始体会生活的细节之处，但是有时又觉得对细节的过分诠释反而失去了事物的原有特点。就如同日本料理一样。
本人非饮食中人，对饮食的看法仅一家之言，绝无标新立异之意。仅记下近几日之心得，聊以自嘲而已。
July 03 BANFF BOUND....Be to continue........... Incredible place.....Been a long time haven't got any slim chances to back to the computer. That's the real life, I think lots of fellows know exactly what does it suppose to mean.... Just drove there last week, I thought it might be a good chance to remind everyone that I still survive. This could be considered as some expressions in terms of spiritual. It doesn't need words to elaborate to much. I mean I just love this place so much. At this point, I just wanna to share some of the wonderful monments with you guys. It does give us some hints about life: emotional shock is just so simple and pure, it doesn't need language at all. I'll be back soon. October 25 幸福是什么在深夜回家的路上,突然发现夜色变的与以往不同.
是什么呢?
哦.原来是冬天的味道.
这边的秋天实在太短暂了,短暂的都让人来不及回味.
它就这样匆匆而过, 似乎什么都没有发生一样.
每一个季节注定要有一个季节的旋律,一个季节的故事.
是悲剧还是喜剧,不会由演员决定.
而导演只有在这匆匆的季节交替中传递的这样的信息.
其实每个故事都有瞬间的精彩.
它走的太快。....甚至来不及谢幕.
它走的太匆忙...
仿佛一曲WALTZ在音乐中嘎然而止.
让人回味无穷
来不及道别,仿佛也从来不需要.
它的离去注定是潇洒和从容的.
挥洒的优雅
曾经仿佛说过,不喜欢秋天.
太多的伤感的情绪.
叶子注定是要离开的,
或许它一直想要离开那棵大树吧
只是把秋风当作借口而已.
冬天终于来了.
白的那么纯粹.
蕴藏着生机的力量.
憧憬着在暖冬的早晨
坐在橱窗的壁炉边.
看着她
和窗外的洁白
懒懒的享受着淡淡的阳光
喝着咖啡.
幸福其实就是这样,淡淡的
幸福就是在BAR里和朋友们喝着WHISKEY聊天
幸福就是在满天繁星的夜晚在海边大声的歌唱
幸福就是在公车站微笑地和你爱的人一起等待
其实幸福可以很简单
只要你懂得如何去珍惜. August 07 Jack Daniel终于又一次看完了scent of women，记得第一次看得时候还是五年前，一次很偶然的机会。
我对看这部片子的源动力已经很模糊了。也不记得多少次我反复的看着Lt.Frank Slade's dramatical 'Hoo-Ha' 但我十分清楚地记得，因为这部片子，我开始疯狂的爱上Al Pacino 当然还有Jack Daniel. 一个男人对生活的sensitivity和一瓶随身的Whiskey,构成了这部影片的全部戏剧元素.
上帝是公平的,当你有所缺失,另一扇门却在你不经意间为你打开. 丰富的阅历,对生活的理解,冷漠外表下一颗善良的心. 他flirt with suicide, 他 jiggle on life,他喜欢women 和 Ferrari. 对我而言,他就像 never-ending series of bonding pictures,每一幅画面都代表了男人的一个基本元素.
Al Pacino对于Charles的情感是一种师生般慈父的爱,他的情感是那么的spontaneous,那么真挚,却从不浮于口头.
对我而言,他是典型的那种有borderline personality的男人,从来不苟言笑,在rock-solid的外表下却隐含着不为人知的情感,就像professional里面的LEO,或许他的生命所需要的就只是一缕眼光. he loves drinking,不在于酒精的麻醉,而在于当whiskey和冰块交融时琥珀班光影流动的影像.
he loves tango, 不在于绚丽的舞技,而在于一种对tango的感觉. 就像电影里面所说的那样,there is no mistake in tano,if u make any mistake, just tango on, not like life. 突然觉得生命有时并不允许你犯错误,或许是太多东西难以割舍,太多东西不敢放弃.
也许生命就该像跳tango,时而舒缓,时而激昂,时而深沉,时而奔放.时如高山流水,苦叹知音难觅.时如广陵曲终,惜英雄壮志未酬. 也许是否精于舞技并不重要,而重要的在于能与你的舞伴一曲而终. 忽想登高凭栏,把酒临风,岂不快哉。。。。。。 May 29 Damn backlight inverterMy laptop crashed down three times in a row in recent 6 months.....i cant even imagine how can i get throught all of this....
firstly..hard drive..I was informed that my data couldnt be retrieved...jesus...alll my works.....gone with the f**king wind...I even thought about booking a graveyard for myself..
Adapter.....is the upcoming story.......trying to get it one line....one greedy guy charged $60 for a seond hand one...even the 2/3 price with the brand new one. I was irritated, after i was told this guy stole this adapter from his company after saw my poster....wish our mercy god would wash his criminal soul....Omen...
the lastest tragedy would be the backlight inverter whcih made my whole LCD doesnt work......i tried everything to make it work..begging..reasoning and threatening...nothing works
hah......after the second thought...that would be a perfect idea that god want me to buy a new one....why not.....on the very next day........TOSHIBA...was out of stage curtain
Intel Celeon 390, RAM 512 ex 1G, 80G Harddrive, DVDRW double layer support, WLAN 802.11BG.
L2 cache 1M....just $ 912 including tax....wow...
i love futureshop for jesus's sake May 20 Da Vinci Code After finished it, I think I should honestly say something about the movie. I didnt read through the whole book, so It gonna be hard to compare the book and the movie. However what I heard is the book will break the selling record with whole bunch of plots and details twisted. I was just curious bout how Bravo Howard can make such a packed-story in 2 and half hours movie.
Be honest, the main reason drive me to the theater is Tom hanks, but I just can't believe the symbologist can make much more spaces for him to show his talent. After hearing about the critics' mainly negative views of the film, I approached it without high expectations, and for that, I was absoluately rewarded. What I got was an action-packed film that didn't let up until the dying minutes.
The story is well-packed and fluent, although lots of details have been shown, I didnt get any overwhelming feelings. For the people like me who dont have lots of background knowledge about the jesus and bible, it seems to be tough time to understand something in depth, however when u left the seat and re-organise the whole story, u will find everything is in place.
The visuals are stunning, the acting of Hanks and Tautou is great , contrary to certain critics opinions. It is worth mentioning that their last hug without even a kiss, although a little bit unusual in western movies, the emmotional connection is obvious. BTW, Reno, one of my favorate actor, made a good way to illustrate french cop. He is as cool as usual, professional......
The background music was as good as the visual version of the film - it patched perfectly with the storytelling style, smoothly but swift.
I havent read the book, so its even hard for me to follow the story line such as "templar and Holy Grail". But just because of that I really has a great entertaining time when I set myself a hypothesis in religion. I found it need mounts of intelligence to interpret lots of scenario without bible.
One last comment i have to say is, Tom hanks probably not best choice to lead the role although he did pretty good job, It's wasting his talent in an role like that, good performance but not impressive.
Thanks Howard for such a masterpiece........worth a shot May 13 The lonely Impresionist in OttawaYou always can find some reasons for U to be in some place, it starts from a lie and ends up to be the ture...................................
I never expected Ottawa is kinds of city which is hard to use any language and even physical image to picture it. it is like an impressionist old oil painting from 19th century, it is a slightly old, however elegant. It is so general that you can never get any details when u are getting close to it. I bet the best way to enjoy the painting is keeping distance far away without even a slight touch.
Now, it should be the right time to go over the painting, no details, just mingle all my images stored in my mind overlapped with each other.
From centre top of the picture, an majestic building stands right in the middle. It seems to be the parliament hill. Or maybe not.......Sorry, cos I am just standing too far away from it. It looks like it has the Gothic architecture style, with classic decoration on each pole, lofty tower straight up to the bule sky surrounded by thousands of different colors. Purple, yellow, pink, balck,crimson Tulips, snow white cloud, green grasses, sapphire blue sky and grey marble....colorful shouldn't be the word to describe it, it's all about the impression and the feeling. It is so harmonic that sometimes U may feel that only god can make such a gorgeous combination to take your breath away.
Move your eyes down llittle bit, you will find an emerald like stream flowing out from the parliament. Her name is ottawa river which seperates the french speaking world and English speaking world. It is just like mother embracing her two naughty kids and have bred them for hundreds of years. She is moving so peacefully without any billow runing up and down that you can't even realise her trace. Maybe the view attracts her so much or she loves her kids so deeply that she just doesn't want to leave them behind even with hundreds of years passed.
Wait a minute, my eyes are getting tired........what is the line emerging into the river? Maybe this is the Rideau Canal, the earliest irrigation canal in Canada. I think she must be a magician, otherwise I can't find any reason why she can change her color through all the seasons. In spring, she is green, in summer,she is blue, in autumn, she is orange, in winter, she is silver.
From both sides of the Rideau canal,you may notice, what are those black dots? Maybe they are the people who are sitting on the bench or jogging along the runway. they could be the lovers kissing each other, they could be old couples with walking stick on their hand walking in the sunset, also they could be some students laying down on the lawn with a cup of coffee.....They could be friends, they could be totally stranger as well, Whoever they are, I can imagine the smile on their face.....It's a peacefull smile with enernity.
In this moment, I am just so indulged into the painting, no....., actually, its my imagination, my imprerssion about the visual attack from what i have seen. Suddenly, I feel like I want to drink, tip the wine a little bit over, with my lip touching the edge of the goblet.
Motto told us, never steal, never cheat, never drink.
If you really want to steal, steal from the bad people,
If you really want to cheat, cheat on the death.
If you really want to drink, please drink for the moment which takes your breath away. April 04 只爱陌生人突然发疯似的想听王菲的歌.....也许是很久没有歇斯底里了....
源于一种神秘的力量,源于她的不羁.
流浮于世,能超然于外的自然凤毛麟角.
你我当然不能免俗.偶然的世俗背叛也成为奢侈
把门关上,虽困于斗室,却乐此不疲......
在歌声中,一切都变的不那么可能,但是又充满可能....
将思绪延伸到他的极限,你最后一个想到的又会是谁?
将心房扩展到他的边界,你最后一个开门看见的的又会是谁?
将心火照亮最后一个角落,谁又将在远处抓住最后一缕光芒?
带这这样的疑惑,试图在王菲的歌中寻找到答案.
流动的音符,仿佛在一颗颗小石子在脑海轻轻划过.
涟漪片刻,却倏忽地失去了方向,沉入心底最深处
有时候觉得:
除了我们自己...
我们所爱的
却只是陌生人
一如歌中所说的:"当我需要的只是一个吻 ,就给我一个吻 ,我只爱陌生人."
爱上一个人......没有很多理由
那是一个咬下嘴唇的动作
那是一个在风中的微笑
那是一个顽皮的眨眼
那是一缕额前的乱发
那是一种体温
那是一个眼神 March 27 喜欢两个人最近突然喜欢上了彭家慧的"喜欢两个人"
很长时间没有两个人的感觉了.
什么事情都是独来独往.
曾经很喜欢一个人漂泊的旅行,无拘无束,哪怕是在黑夜,都喜欢一个人的星夜.
曾经喜欢一个人在PUB的感觉,嘲杂的音乐,霓虹寐影,让自己置身在一个别人无法洞察的世界之中思绪由缰.
曾经很喜欢一个人在街角静静的喝着咖啡,看着周围的恋人.感受着他们的幸福
曾经还很喜欢一个人呆呆的面对电脑,千百遍的听着MELODY.
突然之间有点惧怕两个人的感觉.
害怕彼此面对却相视无言.
难道接纳一个人就意味着改变自己去迁就别人?
那不是我的风格.
没有完美的感情,就想没有完美的玫瑰一样,但即使是残破的,却依然美丽,却后知后觉
没有完美的生活,就像没有完美的艺术品一样,但若用心雕琢,却会日趋完美.
何尝不去尝试另外一种生活.
生命中错过太多的人,有些是因为没有勇气,有些是因为不够坚定.
爱有时真的需要勇气,需要勇气去承担别人的痛苦,需要有勇气去保护着她一路走下去.
其实在生命中
没有虚假的爱情,只有虚假的幸福. March 10 回首又见奥斯卡... 记得去年奥斯卡时.我在考试,遗憾错过.....于是暗自决心,今年一定不能错过..没想到阴差阳错,奥斯卡当天却在上班....真是造化弄人.非人力可及也.．．．．．
喜欢BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN，因为他来自于一种人类共同情感的共鸣．据说这部电影三类人最喜欢看：１）多愁善感想抓住一些感物伤怀机会的女子 ２）同性恋的男子 ３）最后就是感情无所寄托的风雅之人．本人虽然喜欢李安的才情加上人对同性题材不是十分反感，同时觉得李氏手法颇有可取之处．但这部电影揭示主题方面却仍有欠缺．没有强烈的戏剧冲突．．没有扑朔迷离的故事情节．舒缓的音乐，美丽的田园，细腻的情感．一切都是那么自然，仿佛在听一个失传以久的童话故事，让李安能娓娓道来．所有的这一切构成了一个好作品所必须的，但却称不上大师级的作品．
说到同性题材，我最早的接触应该是王家卫的＜春光咋现＞，杜可风的摄影为他增色不少．大量长镜头的运用，仿佛给当时看电影的我一个足够的思考空间，尤其的瀑布那一个足有一分半钟的长镜头加上嘈杂的瀑布击打岸堤的声响，仿佛让自己很难从纷乱的思绪中抽离出来．滑动跳跃的拉丁曲风，又仿佛是在嘲笑世间的流俗．
也许是先入为主，总觉得李安是在有意无意的迎合着西方人，即使是为了展示东方的文化，却弄地仿佛强迫一个江南水乡的女子化装成一个打扮摩登的俏女郎，让人不痛不痒．我一直觉得不能给人带来情感震撼的作品永远称不上伟大．
说到李安拿最佳导演，又让我想到我最喜欢的导演MARTIN SCORSESE,不同于同为纽约三大导演的WOODY ALLEN的喋喋不休的独白式风格，也不同于SPIKE LEE的黑人独立电影，MARTIN SCORSESE总是力图与展现出纽约的各个不同层面的生活方式。从最早的〈谁在敲打我的门〉到《唐人街》到成全ROBERT DENIRO的《RACING BULL》，再到唯美的〈AGE OF INNOCENCE〉最后的〈GANG IN NY〉和〈AVIATOR〉，他给我们展现了一个从18世纪到20世纪一个全面的NY，从〈纯真年代〉里面 MICHELLE PFEIFFER 的洗净铅华到〈RACING BULL〉里面主人公命运的跌宕起伏，所有的情感被完整的展现出来，称他书写了一部NY的历史，毫不为过。六次提名，六次失之交臂，也许天妒英才，也许加州的好莱坞对他持久的偏见。不管怎么样，我倒希望他永远不能拿到，让好莱坞去叹息一世。。。。。
我比较喜欢的GEORGE CLOONY也拿了SUPPORTING ACTOR证明了他的才华，虽然转做制片的他在推出OCEAN 11，12这种商业烂片之后也能思考自身，本来就是一件好事情。
WALK THE LINE是一部好电影，实至名归。其他的电影都没有看过，评头论足则不免偏驳。想起原来在地摊淘电影的岁月，感觉我离这个世界好遥远。突然觉得我自己变了很多，在不知不觉间。。。
最后说说主持人 JOHN STEWART，原来看他的DAILY SHOW里面嬉笑怒骂的风格就觉得他不太适合这个舞台。今天看到有一个人这样给他写道：The only thing u have to worried about on the night is performing so well that all the Oscar producer want u back year after year. If U fail, Hollywood forgives u easily. The only ones who will not forget are viewers who believe that Billy Crystal is Oscar host for life----but they most likely have not seen Brokeback mountain, don;t care if it wins, and wont be watching.
but probably I am Oscar Nuts but a daily show fan...I will be watching....but I didnt...maybe I don;t trust Oscar anymore. but I will still keep my eyes on.. January 14 Several places I want to cover in the rest of my lifeI am crazy in making the plan to be around the world recently...I am not the realist ....just don't suck on me....I rather be a dreamer..
I always try to persuade myself to do whatever I want b4 30...U'll find out it's just a mirage as U r reaching there.....everything is bulshit...U still g't long way to run......never satisfid with urself....what I gonna do? cheer up myself and head to the bed
I am going to make a snappy dream, the list shown below are the places I really wanna be dreaming on.....
Cheer up Simon...forget about all the paperwork shit stuck around ur life, remember: u r in vacation..
1)Greek Island in Aegean Sea
The pure marble-white provides us the tremenderous feeling of history, couple of days will never be enough since time is freezing when you immerged into the sediments of the culture through three thousand years.
2)Angkor Wat in Cambodia
the sunset in Angkor Wat will drag you into the endless introspection of ur life. The mystic country sank into the tropical forrest thousands years ago and now is revealed by youself in the spreading sunset
3)MachuPicchu in Peru
The spanish ivasion would never kill the indelible empire and indian culture. The relic left us not only the recognition of the history but also the mystery forever.
4) Katmandu in Nepal
How can you imagine the chance of reaching the place nearest to the sky. It will wipe away all the stress and feud as you are getting closer and closer to the place no one ever touched before. Life is so tiny when you are in the sky....
5)Eastern Africa plain
Feeling the absolutely slow and free, think about slowing down your pace when you are used to the stressful life. Natural power will always be the word in your mind...this is a moving continent without awareness. December 28 百年孤寂------上海 今天看到一个旧友的BLOG上面有这么一段文字:"梵高对提奥说，为了忘掉忧虑，我躺在一棵老树干边的沙地上，画这棵老树的素描。我穿着一件亚麻布上衣，叼着烟斗，望着深蓝色的天空，望着沼泽和草地，这使我快乐。我想如果人得到快乐果真那么容易的话,世间恐怕也没有如此许多的烦恼了。
当人逐渐对一种生活方式感到麻木的时候，会不由自主的把自己推向另一种生活方式，哪怕那种生活会让你无所适从。就像一个心意未决的寻短见之人,看着海水一步步没过嘴巴，鼻子，眼睛，最后头顶，还会继续下去，没有什么其他理由，只不过体会一种毁灭的感觉。就这样一步一步，直到自己无法呼吸，这时才发现活着原来是这么美好。所以说有时候人去尝试一种新的生活只不过是为了让自己对原有的生活更加坚定而已。
时常对朋友说想做一个PARTY ANIMAL。其实想做纯种的PARTY ANIMAL却远不是那么简单的事。首先要让自己在高分贝的音乐中麻木，其次要让自己恋上烟影交幻的霓虹，最后要学会浅尝辄止的欣赏。这一切的一切构成了PARTY ANIMAL的生活态度：在不断麻醉自己中保持自己的生活态度。
可是对于这里而言，我只是一个匆匆的过客，一切对我而言只是浮光掠影，却又刻骨铭心。一个背包，一罐最廉价的啤酒，几屡懒散的街灯，就这样一个人在午夜的都市中游荡着。许多人与我擦肩而过，他们各怀心事，目色匆匆，也许他们也感觉到了些许倦怠，也许对他们来说，家才是他们的港湾。可对我而言，眼中却只有无尽的夜色，停在何处？我自己也不知道！但我却如此深爱上了着这路上的风景，每一片落叶，每一棵梧桐，都是那么的独特。或许你永远也无法遇到给你同样感受的落叶了，正因为每一处景物独特的魅力，才能让我如此神往。一路上不断驻足徜徉，衡山路的小洋房让我想到长恨歌里面的凄美，广元路的黄色围墙公寓让我感受到霞飞路的浪漫气质........
等待总是让人焦急，因为你永远也无法预知下一个敲门的会是谁。当你终于等到了敲门的声音的时候，你却犹豫了，就在那一刻，也许门口已经只剩下背影。于是人学会了站在门口去张望，一个暧昧的微笑，一个挑逗的手势，只言片语间，仿佛从未如此熟悉，这是一种默契，一种浮光掠影的欣赏。她就这样从你身边经过，昏暗的灯光下你永远无法看清她的脸，也许从来没有想要去看清过，因为你知道你等的人不是她，她要敲的也不是你的门．．．．．
我从来不敢去预测未来，预测总是让人恐惧。东邪西毒里面说：年轻的时候我总好奇沙漠的那一边是什么，到现在我才明白沙漠的那一头不过还是沙漠。当你发现自己的生活只不过是重复着自己给自己划的一个圈子的时候，你才会停下来。于是每年落叶的时候我会就这样一直站在门口数着，我对自己说：当第９２３片叶子飘落的时候第一映入我眼帘的女孩就是我要等的人。可是我却从来没有数清过。于是C'est la vie成了我的座右铭,双手一摊,强做一分潇洒。谁又知道呢？或许那第９２３片叶子飘落上的那个女孩正和我擦肩而过......................... October 29 怎见浮生不若梦..... 今天偶尔睦见一个朋友的朋友的BLOG,文章到是稀松,无奈里面的一支背景音乐到是揪住了我的耳朵.用文字描述音乐是一件着实难办的事情,本人文字稀松平常不敢有非分之想.但是把这种感受记录下来本人还颇感游刃有余,于是这支曲子成为了我写这篇BLOG的源动力.
很长时间没有游荡在BOLG之中看他人之风花雪月了,放下手中的琐事,偶尔为之,着实是一件美妙的事情.仿佛突然从一个滔滔阔论者变成了一个听众,安静的去倾听.突然强烈的爱上了这种感觉,前所未有.终日忙碌奔波的我们就算把耳朵给了别人,何尝又真正尝试着去倾听他人的声音,想着念着的全是自己而已.
有时候突然觉得人真是一种虚伪的动物.明明好友你在面前灰头土脸,当然要百般安慰.心中却竟生鄙夷,心念此等小事也值得哭天抢地,荒唐! 究其更本,扪心自问,我们何尝真的去感受过她,感受她现在的真实感受.
突然很释然,决定不再奢求别人的倾听了.原来倾听是一件这么难的事,不在于行动而在乎于心.物质的社会让我们都多少披上了一层利欲惺熏的外套.用套子把自己装起来,仿佛要把自己保护起来,可当自己开始在里面腐烂时,却浑然不知.
我们当然不是一生中没有离开过哥尼斯堡并且未婚的康德,我们没有他深邃的思维和睿智.我们仍然是社会化的人,所谓赠人玫瑰,手留余香.偶然让自己闭嘴,坐在听众席上不失为一件快乐的事情.
记得西班牙人说:"旅行是一面镜子".我也曾和朋友老嘀咕:"了解一个人最好的方法是和她去旅行." 所谓英雄所见略同,哈,阿Q一把. 胡愈之先生专为这句话作过注释:"人总不能看见自己，唯有和别处的人相比较时，方照见了自己的真实面目."
很喜欢李涉的<题鹤林寺壁>"终日错错碎梦间，忽闻春尽强登山。因过竹院逢僧话，偷得浮生半日闲." 什么功名利禄..只往若云烟罢了.....
想来何不一杯清茶,两袖清风,聚得好友,笑谈人生.偷的半日浮生,看庭前花开花落,望天边云卷云舒......
岂不快哉.... October 13 秋天别来秋天就这样来到了身边...悄无声息..还没等你回过神她就挽着你了
说秋高气爽只是偶尔的奢侈而已...
开始厌恶这里的秋天,,虽然看来很美.但是当你无法感受她的时候只能祈祷她晚点来临..
人就是自私和唯心的结合体..
一杯咖啡一本杂志一缕阳光打发一下午的时光看来离我太远了.偶有闲情也毫无逸致..
突然看见一个旧友在网上和她妈妈的照片.突然感觉有点模糊..
一直以来的漂泊竟然忘却了一份最真的关切无时无刻不在身边.....
突然开始珍惜和父母在一起的时光.像一炉火让我在这略带寒意的秋日仍然不惧寒冷
忽然想听SECRET GARDEN...
U RAISE ME UP SO I CAN STAND ON THE MOUNTAIN...
September 23 ROOT OF THE EVIL 如果你爱她把她带到纽约,因为这里是天堂.如果你恨她也把她带到纽约,因为这里是地狱....这便是我对纽约最早的印象
一直想对纽约写点什么,可纽约实在是太大了,大到窥其一斑却不能了其一斑的地步;纽约又太杂了,像是一锅百味汤,喝起来百感交集;纽约太有魅力了,吸引着全世界的淘金者在这个充满浮华和铜臭的城市里实现着他们的美国梦......想来想去,这样的城市又怎能是我这支拙笔所能三言两语能形容的呢?罢了罢了...写一点无关痛痒的东东,也算是一种怀念吧...
对纽约的生活有一个全面的印象是来源于<老友记>里面的几个都市男女的生活,他们充满活力,乐观进取,向往生活......这一切的一切也又折射出纽约的精神,任何热爱并追逐金钱的人们,你们没有办法去拒绝纽约. 纽约在这种程度上代表这整整这几代人的价值观.一直以为自己对所谓的拜金主义者有多么的嗤之以鼻,曾经以为自己不食人间烟火,但是当自己真的需要自食其力的时候,反而又不免落俗了...这就是整个社会的价值观对你的影响.曾经一直试图去逃避社会对你的影响,但往往在逃避的过程中,你却被无情地同化了...于是我也不免恶俗的买了一件I LOVE NY的T-SHIRT,且乐此不疲....
纽约代表着权利...任何一个符合这个社会"成功"定义的人都是这场权利游戏的追逐者,对于大多数人来说POWER的定义不仅仅代表着锦衣玉食,更多的是他们在这场游戏中充分感受到了胜利者的快感,一种凌驾与他人之上的自我满足....这也就是EMPIRE STATE BUILDING的初衷.他足够的高,高到能藐视一切.他又足够的华丽,华丽到能傲视群雄.那些纽约客们无时无刻不在梦想着他们的帝国,也许在他们眼中惟有纽约才有资格称得上是EMPIRE CITY,也只有全世界最高的大楼才配成为EMPIRE STATE BULDING直到TWIN TOWER的出现.他才失去了昔日第一高楼的的光环.但不可否认的是,当你登上顶峰四目远眺,将纽约的夜景净收眼底时,你不得不佩服那些当时的NEW YORKER,一种控制世界的冲动霎时通便全身．NEW YORKER有这么一句话,WHAT U CAN SEE ARE THE THINGS U CAN GET.看上去像强盗逻辑,但这就是纽约人的霸气...当全世界都在为TWIN TOWER的消失哭泣的时候,帝国大厦是喜还是忧呢? 哈哈．．．站在顶峰,我能看到整个世界..所以这个世界就是我的...哈哈,看来我也受害不浅.
纽约也是包容的,这个万花筒包罗万象.在这个拥挤的城市里你可以看到世界上任何一个角落的人,人们说着各种各样不同的语言,他们来到纽约可能有着不同的目的,但是惟有一点相同的是:他们都有一个共同的AMERICAN DREAM.他们原来可能是反政府主义者,也可能是流亡人士,他们可能远渡重洋来追求财富,也可能千辛万苦来这里找寻自由.这里有摩天大楼,也有贫民窟,有高雅艺术,也有街头文化,有亿万富翁一掷千斤也,有街头乞丐不名一文.在这里你可以看到形形色色的人们穿着各式各样的服装在举着标语,拿着牌子在抗议,在游行,在表达着自己的喜怒哀乐,在做着这样一种宣泄.这就是纽约人所标榜的"自由"
自由是纽约人的图腾文化, STATUE OF LIBERTY便是集中体现.自由女神不过是法国的泊来品,却在美国成了宝贝.自由民主的精神最早起源于法国大革命却在美国生根开花并传播到整个世界.常常听别人说"美国没有文化",但是美国人的包容性决定了他注定要担任一个文化糅合者和传播者的角色而不是文化的缔造者.美国人不以为然,且了此不疲.....纽约客们常常把自己看作是自由的灯塔,就想自由女神手中的火炬一样,不单单照亮着曼哈顿,而且还照亮着全世界.于是"自由"成为了美国人的口头禅,成为了入侵他国的最好理由.但是记得孟德斯鸠说过"世界上没有绝对的自由",于是美国人再一次给我们玩了一个逻辑游戏,用"不是绝对的自由"去追寻着"绝对的权利"这就是纽约的集权主义.十分有趣的是,在WASHINGTON韩战纪念广场上有这样一句话,FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.套用在纽约身上再合适不过.因为在纽约NOTHING IS FREE.这又是纽约的拜金主义.用权利来获取金钱,用金钱来稳固权利....这就是纽约的精神所在.但是为此付出的代价,恐怕酸甜苦辣恐怕只有自己心知肚明落....
当自己走在FIFTH AVENUE受到纽约的荼毒的时候时常会想到这样的一个问题....真正那些在浮华的大都会中能做出自我思考不迷失自我的能有几个呢?我想大多数人都不能免俗吧...有些没有答案问题还是不要考虑的为好,让自己回到现实中没有什么不好.于是突然抬头，猛然看见的是
"SEX AND CITY".....
