倦意

是累积，伤心，还是委屈？

Free

很多事，

我无法控制。

无法控制，

她们那么努力，

却换来不相等的成绩。

无法控制，

他的野蛮无理，

破坏了原本和平的关系。

无法控制，

她的惰性和坏脾气，

只看到自己，无法对他人体恤。

无法控制的，

我要从脑袋丢弃，

从令人窒息的环境脱离。

然后，

重新呼吸新鲜空气。

Unleash

My body feels deprived & suffocated.

I need a good night swim.

亲情

表弟 到冰岛，

与三年没见面的表姐，

和初次见面的 Emma 相聚。

隐约有股感动。

告诉小宝贝，

要是我们相隔三年，

相聚那刻一定紧拥不放。

宝贝说她会哭。

弟啊弟，

我们有开始，

一丁点儿想念你了。

在台风天，

记得还是要照顾脸，

要不回来我也抢救不了你容颜。

感恩

我总是觉得很幸运。

不管情况看似有多遭，

最终总会得以解决。

而当一切安然无恙，

我总是觉得很幸运，

有你们陪伴。

Soon

Look at it this way.

You have little or no choice in the matter.

Obviously, anyone whom you tend to have difficulty with

will be a source of trouble,

because you cannot escape the confrontation.

In fact it is a good idea to have it out

and get your problems into the open

so that perhaps you can clear it up.

The point is that you will not derive much benefit

from keeping to yourself.

Even if your encounter has been an unpleasant one,

it will be useful to you in the long run.

If you withdraw,

the initiative will be taken out of your own hands,

and you will still have the confrontation.

As much as it has taken a lot out of you,

Hang In There.

It will be over before you know it.

Just hang in there.

彻底

Allowing oneself,

to be emotionally affected by the event,

does not help to solve the PROBLEM.

我只想做我应该做的。

而现在应该要做的，

是思考如何解决这个问题。

他人逊色的情绪管理，

并非当务之急。

棘手的一切，

我感觉自己并不真正懂得，

如何正确处理。

于是我找父亲，

讨论了这个问题。

整理好个人不必要的情绪，

希望能在十月来临前，

让它平息。

涟漪

我真的不懂得处理，

这样类似的霸道无理。

大声，

并不代表你赢。

然而忍让，

却让我感觉输了。

我憎恨自己，

为何无法好好保护、维护自己。

为什么我总是逼自己沉住气，

容忍他们霸道无理、乱发脾气？

但是除了那样，

我真的不知道可以如何更好处理。

一直告诉自己，

不要介意。

但连续不断发生的事，

真的让我感觉好累。

累得想躲在谁那里，

哭泣。

野蛮无礼

"Mrs M, I'm meeting the supplier tomorrow. I will try and see if anything can be done to remedy the damage leotard, so that you will not have to pay the full sum of $120..."

"You are the teacher in-charge, JENNA CHAI?"

"Yes, I am the teacher in-charge. I've spoken to your child regarding the leotard. I believe she has spoken to you."

"Of course she has! And I am furious to hear that! I wash the leotard myself! If the leotard is damage, it must mean that something is wrong with the quality! Give me the supplier's number! I am at no fault on this! I handle it with care! I wash myself! I don't even allow my maid to wash it because I don't trust her! I can pay if I have to. But it must be the quality!

"Mrs M, I am not implying that you are at fault, please do not be mistaken. But the fact is, the leotard is damaged when Maria returned to me. This is the school's property. It's my responsibility to act on the school's behalf to inform you about this. The supplier imported that leotards from America, and it is an established brand..."

"I tell you JENNA CHAI! I am in this line! You don't fool me! I know products like Nike, Puma and all sports brands inside out! There must be something wrong with the quality! If you are not able to trash it out with the supplier, give me her number! She will get it from me!"

第一，你没有资格连名带姓那么叫我。

我不是你的佣人。

即使是你的佣人，

你也不应该这么叫她。

第二，我不叫 JENNA CHAI。

18 件体操服，

却只有你的那么糟糕。

我不晓得你到底在不在行，

还是想蛮捍不偿还。

但你的言语却暴露了你欠缺的修养。

一封信

寄托

昨天终于，

腾出时间陪母亲逛街，

给她买那双想了很久的鞋。

昨天终于，

父亲放下一个星期的忙，

让我能够请他们俩老吃晚饭。

昨天终于，

在宁静的夜晚、舒适的床，

将 这本书 读完。

今天终于，

又回到了少儿组，

回顾从前，看老朋友演出。

这两天所看、所听、所读，

仿佛领悟了很多，

但或许也不算是什么。

一身的怨气，

仿佛莫名被洗涤。

明天终于，

新的一个学期。

我期待着，

为孩子们做得更多。

我期待着，

让自己更充实生活。

但愿不是，

三分钟说说。

不逃

我很好。

只是心，

莫名其妙压着。

有一股恐惧，

仍然无法完全散去。

一直告诉自己，

不要去理。

我不晓得，

还能为自己做些什么呢？

仿佛在等待着，

某些事情的发生。

仿佛若发生，

生活就能够步入一个新旅程。

我很好。

我要自己过得更好。

应该开始为生活注入，

新的语言、

新的味道。

不怕

不要怕...

没有什么好怕的。

It's stupid to be afraid.

I must not be afraid.

嚷嚷

遗忘是必然的，

当生命嗅到了对的味道...

没有什么是必然的。

然而，

这也代表着，

无穷可能性潜伏着。

我仍寻觅着对的味道。

找到的那一刻，

那滋味是一种怎样的好？

我仍感觉自己，

被夹于某种精彩和落寞。

我告诉自己，

这是一个过程。

而这个过程，

终究会过。

有一天我会发现，

对的味道。

那一天我会嗅到，

对的生活。

Phase

Wow.

I just found out a childhood friend,

is pregnant and almost due for delivery.

This is like another phase of life,

that hardly ever cross my mind.

Am I old or what?

Hah.

But really,

I don't feel my age.

Nor the need and urgency,

to hurry to that stage.

Though it's always nice,

to have someone to cuddle up to.

Sigh...

Life's complicated, isn't it? :)

As requested

Question:

Tell us about an interesting food pairing you have tried with a Vouvray?

My Entry:

My interesting pair came as a surprise when I was checking out a local cozy, contemporary-style French restaurant with Al fresco dining.

Started with pan-fried foie gras and was certainly lost with its choice of other half. Fortunately, the obliging sommelier was there to recommend Domaine des Aubuisières Cuvée Alexandre Moelleux with nose of tangerine skin, melon and pear and creamy palate, showing great concentration and weight with super length. The other surprise of the evening was it too paired off well with my chocolate truffle soufflé as it has comparable sweetness and right acidity to balance.

Believe me,

I cannot claim credit for this.

And,

they spelt my surname wrongly.

It's not CHUA.

掀开

每个脑袋

都有想象一个人存在

样貌、身高、身材

举止、思维、神态

一份期待

因为希望存在

因为希望存在

所以等待的会来

深切

有时，你也需要一些提醒和鼓励。
