in the deep




if i could, i will dye the world with deep blue.
it's a little triste but also a little cheerful.
it's the colour of enternal summer
that stands for freedom, youth, sweetness, and sourness....
though finally we're getting old like paper photos inevitably fading,
thousand times of bright moments won't dim.
'cause it's the memory--the flash of time,
albeit tempus fugit.

bookishness

To be "gay," I think, is not to identify with the psychological traits and the visible masks of the homosexual, but to try to define and develop a way of life. (207)

Foucault, Michel. "Friendship as a Way of Life." Foucault Live: (Interviews, 1966-84). Trans. John Johnston. Ed. Sylvere Lotringer. New York: Semiotext(e), 1989. 203-210.

Footnotes:
In the very beginning of every new year I am always ambitious to make new plans. Though most of plans are made in vain and I rarely reach the goal…. Well, it's just some kind of encouragement for me. Again, après, nous ne savons jamais..., but I believe if there are few parts in life that can be controlled, I should seize them.

For last year I thank my aunt, cousins, Flora, Zide, Kai, Zu, Chi, Chu, Bobo, and Ivy. My aunt never understands what I study, but she always supports me. Cousins share their feelings to me. Flora is my school sibling in high school, university, and right now in graduate school. I know her nothing. She doesn’t decide to show me her inner side; neither do I. But she does save me two times in the turning points. Zide is my teacher in university. He is busy, but he is always willing to give me some time and encourage me in writing. Kai is ex-bf; he loved me though it passed. Zu, Chi, and Chu are my teachers right now. I am not so good at presenting myself, but they give me the chance I need. Bobo is a new friend. I cherish the time we go swimming together; on the way to "frog" pool, I like the small talk from nonsense to art stuff…. Ivy was a teacher and now is my classmate. I like her consideration and enthusiasm though I have to turn down her interest in me.

This year I have to switch into high gear.

今天很倒楣

今天去青蛙泳池游泳,上岸換衣服時發現貼身衣物不見,不過錢還在...
這種事情雖然略有所聞,
但卻壓根沒想過自己會遇到這種倒楣事。

我相信人或多或少都有點戀物之癖,
但是當自己貼身的衣物被陌生人拿去...不知道幹麻~
覺得很怪異而且噁心~
最後,要離開時發現自己的貼身衣物被丟在外面的長凳
好吧...雖然有點猶豫,還是帶回家洗一洗好了。

走回宅大之後,去牽腳踏車,
發現後輪爆胎了....囧
真是倒楣神上身ㄝ
心情不爽之餘,只好走去女舍那邊買宵夜,
吃點東西安慰自己好了~

心理測驗(轉載自bobo的blog)

網路上看漫好玩的心理測驗

這個測驗分三個部份

1.先在紙上寫上 海洋 咖啡 牆
然後分別寫下三個形容詞形容這三樣事物
所以這部分你一共要寫下九個形容詞
分別就這三類各三個形容詞
2.分別找出一個動物符合這些形容詞的
所以你一共要寫下三種動物
3.在寫出三個形容詞形容這三個動物
所以你一共要寫下九個形容詞
----

分析法

舉例:
海洋 涵孕萬物/起伏不定/週期性
(對人生的看法)
-> 蛇 誘惑/自卑/邪惡
(一般朋友對我的看法)

咖啡 苦澀/內涵/迷幻
(對愛情的看法)
-> 駱駝 任重道遠/堅毅/沉默
(熟人朋友對我的看法)

牆 包容/阻隔/依靠
(對死亡的看法)
-> 大象 厚實穩重/誠懇老實/不自由拘束
(對我自己的看法)
----

我的結果:

Ocean:溫暖、包容、凶狠-->鯨魚-->沉穩、安靜、peaceful
Coffee:香的、醇的、苦的-->小白兔-->溫柔、愛吃、weak
Wall:堅硬、保護、隔離的-->大象-->強壯、任勞任怨、頑皮

燃燒生命的小宇宙

最近學校的課業讓我疲於奔命。前一單元的term paper拖了很久,老師最後寄信來催繳,好死歹死……終於寫完寄給老師。

終於換新單元了,原本希望換了老師和教材,情況會好一點,不過一開始就遇到一篇難讀的教材("The mirror stage as formative of function of the I as revealed in psychoanalytic experience", Lacan),短短的一篇文章,讀過去腦袋卻一片空白,寫這啥小~~ 導致我無生出一篇800字的課後心得。偏偏這禮拜另一堂課還要報告;心中真是焦慮、焦慮……。好在這次老天保佑,要報告的那份materials雖然有16頁,但是卻是我進研究所至今唸過最簡單的一篇文章,破紀錄地我用十個小時讀完並且註上要報告的notes,總算是有驚無險,原本以為會開天窗。

開學至近,遇過三篇令我覺得自己的閱讀能力跟白痴一樣的文章(當然那些我偷懶沒有唸的就不討論了)。
1st "Introduction: The exaggeration of cultures", James Boon.
以前曾看過會計系在按計算機,更…我讀這篇就是那樣子在按電子字典,從國中學到現在的英文,跟廢物一樣。

2nd "What is an Author?", Michael Foucault.
現在唸懂了,原來他是在跟Barthes和Derrida對話,之前真的不了解他為什麼要繞一大圈講一些言不及意的廢話,明明重點就只是在author-function,但是了解之後發現他的思考方式其實很有趣,只是一開始很難進入他的邏輯,再者他考慮的東西真的很多,那些言不及義的東西多半在回應Barthes和Derrida,並且說明他的研究過程。

3rd "The mirror stage as formative of function of the I as revealed in psychoanalytic experience", Jacques Lacan.
嗯…..目前不予置評,我會試著了解你的。

之前一位對我很重要的學姊在MSN寫過:there's no difference between daytime and night if u study in xxxx。嗯…現在終於明白,那種追著報告deadline跑的感覺,或是被書釘死死在桌前……。那種追著deadline跑的唸書方式是不行的,不是日夜顛倒,是不分時間,唸完書寫完報告睡覺,睡起來趕著唸另一本書寫另一份報告,這比日夜顛倒還糟糕,日夜顛倒至少還有規律;所上很多學長姊都這樣過生活,但是這幾天經歷這種生活之後,我發現我不行這樣,老實說我沒那個能耐。如果再不調整到一個規律的(唸書)研究方式,我想我大概撐不了多久,我還不想把身體搞壞,我還有很多雜書要唸,對生活還有很多好奇的東西想去了解,宅成這樣,我已經很堵爛了。

ps.之前跟圖書館建購的書,圖書館通通買來了,全新的,我可以當第一個借閱者,好爽喔~ (借來擺在桌前,但也要有時間看才行…囧)
