。。。

「精靈先生，你覺得什麼是願望啊？」女孩抱著雙腳。

「願望就是……希望得到的東西。」精靈率直地說。

「那是慾望，不是願望。」女孩若有所思，橘色的風吹過她的長髮。

「兩者之間有什麼分別？」精靈不懂。

他實在是不懂。

「我爺爺說，願望代表了追求，代表著希望。」女孩微笑看著精靈，說：「希望可以帶來力量，慾望不行。」

「那慾望呢？慾望不能帶來力量嗎？」

「慾望只能帶來更多的慾望，這是剛剛聽的兩個故事告訴我的。」

。。。

《願望》

我用悲觀去樂觀著。

於是樂觀地重播著萬物的善行。”

等一個人的咖啡

。。。我發現，記憶的拼圖不是死的。

記憶是逐漸纍加，越來越多，越來越複雜，

於是碎片一直拼湊不完。

一邊要努力回憶起舊的部分，

一邊，又要把握正漸漸成爲我生命的那一部份。

屬於他的拼圖，卻是我所看過，最簡單，

最沒有修飾，最直接了當的。

玩過拼圖的人都知道，複雜的圖形反而容易掌握，

因爲每一塊都那麽特異，

很快就能知曉他應放置的坐標。

但越是簡單的圖形，例如蔚藍的天空，

茵茵綠地，卻往往是最難拼成的。

因爲每一篇都太樸直，太單純，

許久都不會明白上一塊跟下一塊之間的關係。

還有跟自己的聯繋。

。。。

開場白不錯

let me finish the story..haaha

不想做的事要坚决不做。
说了要做的事就不能犹豫不决，死都要做，不想做也得做。
没做的事就不要再想了。。。

alright i m posting from the vista sidebar! kind of :D cool...loving my new (compaq)(again) laptop..so far so gd. the specs are almost only half as gd as the thinkpad tt i ordered but well i saved 800 bucks! the looonngg (relative) delay in delivery of the sch lenovo had made my first wk in sch kind of inconvenient and after talking to several pple i was suayed towards 'get-a-cheap-laptop-since-u'll-prob-use-it-for-just-another-yr" makes sense but i wonder why my sis couldn't manage to persuade me earlier on with the same words...lol..
so far so gd...compaq=budget HP design so i think it's quite a steal ;) it's definitely looking gd (blue leds touch sensor controls sleek cover imprints glossy lcd) and working well (keeping fingers crossed).
but...sigh. one day was spent looking for softwares. vista is..really..a pain..in this aspect. so far...only sketchup managed to get itself running in the machine..the rest..i'll have to get hold of them soon!
ok after 1 wk of workshop..conclusion: new friends. new letctures. new responsibility. new interactions. new attitude. + extreme lethargy. first sign of isolation. nervous presentations. preoccupied mind. two more weeks to go..overall it was sth nice that happened i'll give it a 7/10..lol(despite the perpetual tiredness it caused, even till now)
meanwhile, i don't how it will happen, but i will have to get myself back into the dissert...
get tt crappy thing over with..WHEN -_-
ok enjoy vista. enjoy life. enjoy coffee. byee

"those groans are an expression of the sufferer's pleasure" - Fëdor Mihajlovic Dostoevskij, Notes from Underground

ok i shall practise my typing..here it goes..

'Ha, ha, ha! After that, you will be looking for pleasure even in toothache!' you will exclaim, laughing.
'Why not? There is pleasure even in toothache,' I shall reply, I once had toothache for a whole month, so I know what I'm talking about. People don't suffer that in silence, of course, they groan; but the groans aren't straightforward and honest, they are spiteful, and the spite is the whole point of them. Those groans are an expression of the sufferer's pleasure; if he didn't enjoy them he would stop groaning. This is a good example, and I will develop it. The groans are an expression, to begin with, of all the pointlessness, which the conscious mind finds so humiliating, of your pain; it's a law of nature, for which, of course, you feel the utmost contempt, but from which you nevertheless suffer, which she doesn't. They express your awareness of the fact that nobody has inflicted the pain on you and yet you feel it, your awareness that in spite of all the Wagenheims you are utterly at the mercy of you teeth; that if something wills it, they will stop aching, and if it doesn't they will go on aching for another three months; and finally, that even if you still object and try to protest, your only satisfaction will be lashing your own back or running your head even more painfully against your stone wall, and that's absolutely all! Well, it is from those bloody wrongs, these practical jokes of an unidentifiable jester, that pleasure finally arises, pleasure that sometimes attains the utmost rapture. I ask you to listen some time to the groaning of a cultured man of the nineteenth century who has been suffering from toothache for two or three days, and whose groans are beginning to be different from those of the first day; that is, he is not groaning simply because his teeth ache, nor like a coarse peasant, but like a man touched by enlightenment and European civilisation, like a man who has 'cut himself off from the soil and his roots among the people', as they say nowadays. His groans have become something vicious and maliciously nasty, and they go on all day and all night. And yet he knows perfectly well that his groans won't do the slightest good, he knows better than anybody else that he is harrowing and irritating himself and everybody else for nothing; he realises that even the audience for which he is performing, even his own family, are sick of listening to him, they don't believe a word of it, and they know in their hearts that he could very well groan in another, simpler fashion, without roulades and flourishes, and is merely indulging himself out of spite and ill humour. Well, the pleasure lies in all this conscious shamefulness. 'I'm disturbing you,' he seems to say, 'I'm lacerating your feelings and preventing everybody in the house from sleeping. Well, don't sleep, then; you ought to be feeling my toothache all the time. I'm not a hero to you any longer, as I used to try to seem, but only a worthless good-for-nothing. All right, then! I'm very glad you've seen through me. You don't like to hear my mean-spirited moans, do you? Dislike them then; now I'll treat you to an even more harrowing performance....' Do you understand yet, gentlemen? Yes, evidently one must be highly developed and deeply conscious of oneself to understand all the devious ins and outs of that voluptuous delight....Are you laughing? I'm very glad. My jokes are in bad taste, of course, gentlemen, uneven, confused, full of self-distrust. But that, you know, comes from having no respect for myself. Can a thinking man have any self-respect whatever?

wanted to quote it..somewhere..but it wouldn't be half as delightful..haha
so, people, indulge in this pleasure, keep groaning.
(it always amuses me; weird people, thinking weird, writing weird.) GOOD
