Jan. 26,  2010 今天的英美小說選讀10:00就解散了,我哪裡也不想去,在教室待著待到聊天的人都 一一離開了。我為什麼不離開呢?我預計幾點要離開呢?這些我都不知道也沒想太多 只是待著。忽然,有人拍了拍我的肩膀,我回頭一看竟然是Lynn! 從大一就認識Lynn,第一次一起吃中餐的時候就覺得我們好像認識很久的朋友。 因為外文系的課很分散,我們參加的又是不同的社團所以不是很常見到面。但是每次遇見都能和彼此聊著重要的事,誠懇且無所保留...這真是很奇妙的一件事呢。 我喜歡在每次聊完天後,無論我的想法或立場如何,Lynn都會對我說一句:我支持你! 我喜歡分開的時候總不忘記給我的溫暖擁抱:) 我想我已經不會再試圖說出朋友是什麼了。對我而言,朋友只是一個無關的名詞。 真正與我緊密相連的是那一個個真實且獨特的人。我也漸漸認知到...每個個體之間的情感關係其實都 是獨一無二, 且不可能被分類的。

When autumn falls, I'll cast no shadow on the wall, or hear the owl's haunted hoot, high above the rotting root. When all is orange, russet, red, I not be there with you in bed. The day the silent snow descends, and lulls to sleep all living friends, I too will slumber in the earth, among the seeds and squirrel's birth. Who will miss me, who will care, When I am called and no one's there? I AM MUCH NICER THAN GOD It was last thursday, when David finally died, that I realized that I was  much nicer than God. I know that I would never had let him suffer  all those months. And I ne...
