小城故事

每个临河的城市必有一条江滨大道,在南方的小镇屡屡可见。常山也有一样,江对面是偏僻的山林,住着零星几户人家,还有已故亲人的坟墓。那时候,两岸用小船连成的浮桥连接着,过往的人和河里嬉戏的孩童好不热闹。后来,浮桥没了,城南也开发了,江滨也一起建起了防洪大坝,便再也不热闹了。

“你在哪呢”“我在防洪大坝啊!”大概80%的常山人都说过这句话,特别是在夏天。然后这段大坝不在江滨,而在城的另一边,从马上就要出城的东苑小区的尽头一直延伸到城南的定阳桥,约1000多米。要是不尽性就会穿过兰桂苑小区,绕到人民广场爬到“塔山“转一圈再原路返回。

吃完晚饭去防洪大坝走走,有的和我一样想锻炼身体,甩掉肥肉,有的结伴走走聊聊,有的散步纳凉。不过如果你想做个独行侠,似乎不是个好选择,因为一路走来不碰上三五个熟人简直就是mission impossible.凉风习习,波光粼粼,偶尔还有音乐响起,防洪大坝是每个常山人心中记忆。

人民广场也是不能不说,那原来是好多人的母校,爸妈的母校,我的母校,好几代的人回忆。后来学校搬迁,这里就依山建起了塔山公园和人民广场。塔山的塔,指的是文峰塔,始建于宋,流传着和严嵩有关的故事。以前大家在文峰塔边上升旗做早操,现在的妈妈们在塔边上锻炼身体,跳舞练拳。虽说塔山不大也不高,但走上个好几圈,也能把人累得气喘吁吁。以前我们在广场上跑步上体育课,现在的孩子们在广场玩轮滑,滑板,追逐,大人们每天跳广场舞,其乐融融。夏天广场还有音乐喷泉,既降温也是孩子们的最爱。

小城有着好多故事,过去,现在,未来,每天都在变化,好多记忆都变得模糊,不过我想防洪大坝和人民广场一定会深深地印在人们的记忆里的吧。

Dear Friend

The first time I saw you, you didn't seem to be very pleasing. Who knows later, our friendship would go this far. Knowing someone and changing my life could happen and also be not a love story. If it wasn't you, I don't believe that friends would more reliable than lovers. No matter how scatter-headed am I, no matter how much trouble I caused, you will always teasing at me first but always be there for me as well. You have seen the worsts of me, and you totally brought them out. And we still stay friends. I guess that's how magic works. Anyway, Good luck to you, and wish you all the best. It's a pleasure to have you as a truly good friend.

Someonelike you-Adele

A very nice chinese translation of this song. I don't want anyone like you, I wish I can always be there fore you. 

Someonelike you
另寻沧海--Adele
阿黛拉

I heard, that your settled down.  
已闻君,诸事安康。

That you, found a girl and you're married now.
遇佳人,不久婚嫁。

I heard that your dreams came true.  
已闻君,得偿所想。
Guess she gave you things, I didn't give to you.   
料得是,卿识君望。
Old friend, why are you so shy?
旧日知己,何故张皇?

It ain't like you to hold back or hide from the lie.
遮遮掩掩,欲盖弥彰。
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.
客有不速,实非我所想。

ButI couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.  
避之不得,遑论与相抗。

I'd hoped you'd see my face that you'd be reminded,  
异日偶遇,识得依稀颜。

That for me, it isn't over.
再无所求,涕零而泪下。

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.  
毋须烦恼,终有弱水替沧海。

I wish nothing but the best, for you too.  
抛却纠缠,再把相思寄巫山。

Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:
勿忘昨日,亦存君言于肺腑。

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"  
“情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜。

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.  
情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜,然。

You'd know, how the time flies.
光阴常无踪,词穷不敢道荏苒。

Only yesterday, was the time of our lives.  
欢笑仍如昨,今却孤影忆花繁。

We were born and raised in a summe haze.  
彼时初执手,夏雾郁郁湿衣衫。

Bound by the surprise of our glory days.  
自缚旧念中,诧喜荣光永不黯。
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.
客有不速,实非我所想。

But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.  
避之不得,遑论与相抗。

I'd hoped you'd see my face that you'd be reminded,  
异日偶遇,识得依稀颜。

That for me, it isn't over.
再无所求,涕零而泪下。
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.  
毋须烦恼,终有弱水替沧海。

I wish nothing but the best, for you too.  
抛却纠缠,再把相思寄巫山。

Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:
勿忘昨日,亦存君言于肺腑。

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"  
“情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜。

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.  
情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜,然。


Nothing compares, no worries or cares.  
无可与之相提,切莫忧心同挂念。

Regrets and mistakes they're memories made.  
糊涂遗恨难免,白璧微瑕方可恋。

Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?  
此中酸甜苦咸,世上谁人堪相言?
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.  
毋须烦恼,终有弱水替沧海。

I wish nothing but the best, for you too.  
抛却纠缠,再把相思寄巫山。

Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:
勿忘昨日,亦存君言于肺腑。

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"  
“情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜。

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.  
情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜,然。

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.  
毋须烦恼,终有弱水替沧海。

I wish nothing but the best, for you too.  
抛却纠缠,再把相思寄巫山。

Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:
勿忘昨日,亦存君言于肺腑。

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"  
“情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜。

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.  
情堪隽永,也善心潮掀狂澜,然。

2012 我在dallas

沿着网上流行的格式,我也打算这么开始我的2011新年总结。2011, Boston, New York, D.C., Cape Cod, Rockport, Salem, New Haven, Dallas 有我。2011年一整年都没有踏上祖国的土地,都没有和爸爸妈妈见上一面,心里总是有些失落和惆怅。但2011我生命中也出现了那么多人,也一直有朋友的陪伴,虽然依然幼稚依然孩子气但也摸爬滚打渐渐也有了丝沧桑。人过了25岁,日子总像在追着你跑。回忆过去的几年,虽然见识广了,但是似乎什么都还在原地徘徊,事业未成(简单说现在的状态是失业),爱情也没有起色(虽然有段让我刻骨铭心的爱情,但也是无疾而终,修成正果何时才能达到)。每当想到这些,就十分地沮丧。恨不得能一觉起来,第二天一切都摆在面前。也许这是电影的荼毒吧,短短七八十分钟讲述一生,而一生缺如此漫长又如此短暂。

今晚在舒展,京通家一起跨年,一起吃了dimsum,一起看了电影once,一起看了time square的跨年live。现在巴黎时间7点36分,你比我早到2012年7个小时。bonne annee. 我突然好想反悔,好想和你说,我们不要断了联系,我们写信,写很长很长的信,我们做朋友先,也许有一天,有一天,也许我们再在一起的时候,就不会显得那么陌生,恍如隔世。

新的一年,希望慢慢生活,慢慢爱,慢慢成长,慢慢体会。

After reading Shapiro's Coloring Book

Our love didn't break as others have sharp fragments that hurt
Afraid of fading in tedious we let it trap in the time, a smile farewell.

One day my body was a shell merely to contain you.
The next day, empty of you. Got to be filled somehow.

I read, I travel, I write,
as if we were traveling separately.
But sometimes I remember the sweetness,
and it bears your name.

I murmured to myself maybe maybe.

A tree that once was a seedling
A guitar that once was a truck of bare wood
A view from the window that once was yesterday's
that once was last year's
Once we were in each other's life

I wished this chapter never closes

All I Want Is You

How many roads must went down before we meet again
How many nights must passed through before I can feel your warmth

So long, so long

How many people must walked by till we meet again
How many winters must I survive till I can feel your warmth

So long, so long

Mistletoes turn green, Maples turn red.
Mountains away, Oceans apart.
I will be brave, 
You will be all right.

So long, so long
