What though the radiance which was once so bright Be now for ever taken from my sight, Though nothing can bring back the hour Of splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower; We will grieve not, rather find Strength in what remains behind; In the primal sympathy Which having been must ever be; In the soothing thoughts that spring Out of human suffering; In the faith that looks through death, In years that bring the philosophic mind.
--William Wordsworth Ode on Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood
I guess this time you're really leaving I heard your suitcase say goodbye And as my broken heart lies bleeding You say true love it's suicide
You say you've cried a thousand rivers And now you're swimming for the shore You left me drowning in my tears And you won't save me anymore
I'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance, girl
I'll be there for you These five words I swear to you When you breathe I want to be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you Steal the sun from the sky for you Words can't say what a love can do I'll be there for you
I know you know we've had some good times Now they have their own hiding place I can promise you tomorrow But I can't buy back yesterday
And Baby you know my hands are dirty But I wanted to be your valentine I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby When you get drunk, I'll be the wine
I'll be there for you These five words I swear to you When you breathe I want to be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you Steal the sun from the sky for you Words can't say what a love can do I'll be there for you
And I wasn't there when you were happy I wasn't there when you were down I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out
I'll be there for you These five words I swear to you When you breathe I want to be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you Steal the sun from the sky for you Words can't say what a love can do I'll be there for you
我在昨天经历了入学以来最惨不忍睹,惨绝人寰,石破天惊, 惊天地泣鬼神,可歌可泣,委曲求全的一天 话说我这个总是在上课时神游的家伙, 一直误以为6点考的那张英文是在main campus的DK4考, 所以就在上完5点的课后就去那里等。 值得一提的是因为朋友中只有我不小心拿到Band5 所以我拿的英文跟朋友们是不一样的项目, 因此呢,考试或者上课时间什么的都跟大家不一样 而我就因此,亲手写下了我入学以来最悲惨的血泪史. 话说呢本人早早就在该地等待时间的到来, 可是眼看时间一分一秒的过去,怎么大家都还没来? 心里隐隐觉得不对劲,于是就播电话给一个一起拿英文的同学。 然后我才知道原来不是在main campus考, 而是在那个离main campus死鬼远, 又久久才有一辆巴士进去的工程系的系所,DK4考! 看看手表,已经快要6点了!!! 我匆匆跑去对面的车站,一边等车一边打电话给教授。 电话接通后我霹雳啪啦说了一大堆有语病的英文, 问教授我到底应该怎样?她可不可以等我过去? 电话先是一阵沉默,接着便是我噩梦的开始. 那个教授用冷酷的语气说: Why are you making this kind of mistake? I thought I’d make myself very clear that we’re supposed to have our exam at engineering fac? You yourself is a physics student, you shouldn’t be making this kind of mistake. Furthermore, I’ve sent everyone an email notifying them the venue of this test, So I suppose that you’ve no excuse that you are late because you went to the wrong place! 于是我就跟她说我没有收到她所谓的E-mail 然后她又继续发飚: OK, even if you didn’t receive my mail, I suppose that I’ve made myself very clear that, we’re supposed to have our exam here at engineering fac? I’m not your secretary, it’s not possible for me to email to remind you every little thing! 但是我明明听到她说是DK4的! 而且正常人一听到DK4 一定会自然而然的就想到Main Campus. 没有办法了,只能问她能不能稍微等我一下,我正赶着去了。 然后她说了一句让我整颗心凉掉的一句话: When you’re irresponsible, don’t drag other people down. 所以我知道再说什么都没有用了,只好把电话挂掉继续等巴士. 可是等了快要10分钟吧,巴士都没有来. 我那时候真的是快要崩溃了,长那么大第一次经历这样的事 , 就一直觉得自己很可怜,很想哭咯… 结果在同一个时候我看到我的室友和她的朋友从远处走来. 于是很怕寂寞的我就走过去跟她们诉苦. 我想我真的是一脸快要哭出来的样子吧, 她们不但很专心地在听我语无伦次 (太紧张了,讲话已经没有次序), 还开始帮我联络起她们有驾车的朋友来. 结果还真的给她们联络到一个超热心的朋友. 那个朋友在她们打过去的时候是正在吃饭的耶, 可是当她听到我的事过后连饭都还没吃完就赶过来载我了, 况且我跟这个载我去考场的好心人素未谋面, 她其实是可以选择不帮我的, 但她却还是选择了帮助我... 坐上她的车的时候, 我脑袋又重播了一次教授刚刚对我说的话: When you’re irresponsible, don’t drag other people down. 我真的觉得自己的疏忽带给了别人很大很大的麻烦. 真是汗颜啊~~~ 于是乎,在她们的帮助下,我顺利抵达那个很远很远的工程系系所. 但是另一个问题却来了…. 那就是….DK4 到底是在哪一栋哪一层啊? 整栋楼大到像鬼,却连一个人影都没有, 所以我只好一口气冲上二楼再一间间教室找. 该死的是我的运气真的很差, W型的建筑物我从一端走到另一端才总算找到. 我很喘很喘地把门推开后,差点没被眼前所见给吓死. 教室很大,里面坐着大概有六,七十个人吧,超多人的. 而每个人都用很好奇地眼神看着我. 我只好顶着很硬很硬的头皮来到教授面前,跟她道歉 . 教授什么话都没有说,只是静静地看着我. 而我也感觉全班六,七十对眼睛都在打量我. 然后我又再道歉,保证我以后都不会那么粗心了,请她原谅, 但她还是什么都没有说,继续静静地看着我. 于是我们就这样,你看我,我看你,僵持了好几分钟. 终于她开口说话了: Do you know that this test only lasts for 30 mins? We’ll end this test at 6.38, look at the time now. 我抬头看看墙上的数码时钟,它方方正正实实在在地显示着6.29 于是我就跟她说我会尽力完成应该完成的东西, 请她给我机会尝试. 这个教授就冷冷地抛出一句: Don’t expect me to give you extra time! 于是我就默默地拎着考卷走到角落去开始疯狂地作答. 我几乎是在看到问题的同时手就立刻写下答案, 我连自己是对是错都来不及想我的问卷已经回答了一半. 终于她宣布Time’s up, 我手中的问卷几乎已经回答完毕, 只剩下两题两分的不会也还没作答. 于是呢,很想挽回一点什么的我,也不尝试做这两题了. 我只是默默地拎着考卷到教授面前再交给她. 然后再一个人默默地离开考场. 离开考场的时候,我真的觉得很委屈,很伤心,很懊恼. 我真的很不喜欢犯下这种错误的自己. 所以我就冲去厕所里面哭.(很没有用hor?) 哭完过后我从系所一个人走去车站的时候, 越想越不甘心,干脆打电话回家跟妈诉苦. 谁知道没用的我一边讲一边又哭了起来. 我真的是很怕妈妈担心,但是眼泪又止不住,鼻音也越来越重. 于是我借口巴士来了,匆匆把电话挂掉. 我到现在打出这个经历,还是有种想哭的冲动, 毕竟长那么大还在那么多人面前被消遣的感觉真的不好受...

看完日剧版恋空后, 立刻爱上分别为片尾曲和插曲的アイのうた和涙のふるさと。 片尾曲是由福井舞演唱的<爱之歌>,日语Ai no uta。 插曲则是弘在校园祭的时候唱给美嘉听的情歌, 由乐团Bump of Chicken演唱的<泪的故乡>,日语Namida no furusato 两首歌轻易同时登上我iTunes的点播榜首。 其中涙のふるさと更是播到连我妈都可以哼出副歌。 厉害吧?哈哈。
好呗,咱不啰唆,马上隆重登场的是涙のふるさと!
噢,真的是太好听啦~~~~! Banpu obu chickin 真的是太驚くばかり辣! 狂推~~~~~~~!
