看社會動向有感

不管什么事情,發展到需要受害者出來道歉,很明顯已經不是正向發展了。但如果單單因為受害者道歉而盲目幹礁其他人,那又是哪門子的正義?

事情的真相難道是坐在電腦前多看幾篇報導就能夠掌握嗎?難道社會集合各個報導、文章后自行拼湊出來的真相,因為符合大眾胃口及需求,就自動成為事實的全部嗎?

到底在浮上水面的文字背后,隱藏著多少錯綜復雜的隱情?那個四方的熒幕會告訴你嗎?

Literature is Real

There's a lot going on in this world. The day you realize the true meaning behind this line will be the day you learn how petty you are, trapped in this comfort zone of yours.

If you can't travel or experience the things that are happening, then READ! The more you read, the more you get to know this world.

"Literature is real".
That's what my professor said. Getting much nearer to comprehend the line now.

It is only through literature that we know the deeper truth behind the written truth.

两件事

1.
開學了,但因為一些原因,不得不半工讀。
找了份補習班的工作,所以,我的身份就從早上是學生,到了下午轉換為老師的狀態。
要在同一天內從一個被動的角色變成主動的角色,說實話心態的轉變真的非常重要。
昨天突然還有種不知所措的感覺。坐在椅子上,看著台上的老師,剎那間不知道自己在做什麼,又該做什麼。
早晚身份的錯亂,好像會讓我有點神經質 @@
之後應該還會有相同的情況發生。
只希望這種錯亂維持在我心裡就好,不要表現出來啊~

2.
隊上來了個大國交換生。
與本地學生在聊天的時候,單單一個用詞就足以表現兩邊的立場。
這是我第一次遇到這種情形。雖然之前網路上常看到激烈的文字戰,但親身經歷兩邊的立場差異,還是讓我有點措手不及。(不是吵架,而是下意識冒出的敏感詞彙)
但身為局外人,還是不要瞎攪活好了~默默地跳出來替兩人解圍。僵局bye~
希望之後一切平靜順利
呵呵

中秋快樂

然後就這樣,中秋節過去了。

少了家人的陪伴,或又可說少了陪伴家人的機會,今年與一般許久不見的延畢同道們一起度過。

台灣的中秋節不提燈籠,但咱們才不會因為在異鄉就對他人的習俗妥協。燈籠還是要的!七彩的燈籠掛滿朋友家的天台,大家圍在燈籠邊的桌子上賞月聊天,這才叫過中秋。而五顏六色的燈籠發出五顏六色的微光,在佳節之時與皎潔的月光一起照亮我們這些遊子的夜晚,很是溫馨。

雖然不太喜歡人多的場合,但偶爾參與一次這樣的聚會,也還是會有滿滿的感動。畢竟,團圓節日在他鄉之地與一班同鄉人共歡,會倍有親切感。

然後很平淡地,中秋節就這樣過去了。但此時的溫暖,卻會長存心裡。

開學感想

開學第一天原本也沒什麼好記錄的,但老師的大將之風一秒就把我給折服了,不得不上來誇她幾句。

婀娜姿態、輕盈步伐再加上由內散發至外的高貴氣質,老師一走進教室就帶著一股高人的氣息。而她一開口,竟是操著一口流利的英式英文,偶爾還自然地說出一兩句玩笑話,讓人好生敬佩。

然而,最讓我敬佩的並不是她的外表或談吐,是她所傳達的觀點:

"Don't give up your Chinese. "
"It's because we live in an environment where Chinese is used so widely, that makes the language less cherished around us. "
"If you can't speak your mother tongue, you can't speak any foreign language. "
"Speaking English does not make you a better person."

果然是高人啊!如此非一般的說辭,說出了人家多少的內心話!

這個地方真的把英文看得太過重要了。English is so damn overrated here!雖然這是目前的國際語言,但卻不是唯一的語言!比起英文,把自己母語學好並掌握得更好難道不是一件更重要的事嗎?可有些人就是愛冷不防剌個一兩句英文顯得自己多麼高高在上。

慶幸這學期的主要課程都是由老師帶,覺得應該可以受很多啟發~期待未來的一學期甚至一學年裡老師所帶來的更精彩的課程!

公車上的突發奇想

有時候也在想,那些討厭的事與物,會不會有一天變成自己的日常?

社會人之間的冷漠;
對於善行的不齒與戒心……

是否這些,都成為現代人生活的模版?

為什麼對陌生人熱情會是奇怪?
為什麼要幫助別人之前總得先鼓起勇氣?
為什麼要受人恩惠之前需多方顧慮?

這世界就是如此嗎?
這世界不該如此不是嗎?

然而,
受過現實的熏染,又有多少人,能夠保有初心?

Heathens from Suicide Squad

Suicide Squad really has the best soundtracks!!! This is one of my favourites!!! Heathens by twenty one pilots.



The music fits the movie 100% well!!! So dark so gloomy and all!!!
Yet the best part is the lyrics.

Here's which I like the most:
You'll never know the psychopath setting next to you
You'll never know the murderer sitting next to you
You'll think, "How'd I get here, sitting next to you?"

Not only it describes the scenes and stories in the movie, it also tells the stories of our lives. Like... People often get obsessed in what we do, then we become lost on our ways to achieve what we want. We forget our priorities, true responsibilities and even worse, we leave behind our purest intentions before we started the race in our lives in order to get our goals. 
Then we mess everything up, not knowing how messed up we are. One day, all of a sudden, only we realize we're not living the lives we wanted in the first place. When we hit this stage in life, we have already lost some of the most important things. Love, friends or maybe even family. 

Isn't this exactly what the lyrics is about? In the middle of our effort to lead a good life, we get involved in the ways of the "psychopaths and "murderers" in our lives. One day we'll be asking ourselves "How'd I get to this terrible point in my life?" By that time, we may have already lost our loved ones.

Back to the song. The second best part is the sudden end of things, accompanied by the very well written lines:
Why'd you come, you know you should have stayed
I tried to warn you just to stay away
And now they're outside ready to bust
It looks like you might be one of us

Given the singer sings this out as a prisoner(in the video), it's like telling those who haven't done wrongs(or haven't got lost in their lives) to beware of this world, from an experienced to a less experienced. Yet we always ignore good advice. So at the end of the day, people will still easily fall into the dark side of the world. And so it says,"It looks like you might be one of us" with a sudden ending, leaving the unknowns as unknown, exactly a portray of life.

Don't get what I say? Watch the MV!!! It's definitely a song worth listening.
