睡前故事

迷路的羔羊披上狼衣，
它以为这样可以保护自己，
怎知道它吃起肉来。。

幸福夠夠力！

〈無夏之年〉的半島巡迴算是告個段落，趁著假期空檔，回家去了。
在一個月内，到訪馬來西亞半島幾個重要城市，奔走了超出1500公里，感覺上沒有更吃力的事了。所以，從吉隆坡回馬六甲真的是太容易的事了，不能再有藉口。

回家感覺真好，雖然把朋友忘了，她卻在電話的另一頭關心自己是否太累，真是難得。
昏黃的家鄉，有种離愁。最近很喜歡‘家鄉’這給字。

想了想，什麽原因，讓自己那麽累還要驅個200公里的車回家，而且第二天早上又得驅回來。
原本最初想給朋友個慶生驚喜，好像很遲了；後來，想到妹妹回家了，到底我們會多聊幾句呢;
再後來，想到接下來很少機會回家；也不過是一個月的事情嘛。
現在說起來，回家有點衝動。

和好朋友見了面，爲了補慶生，
但，她和男友一開場就問下一次回來的時間，然後就一唱一和的給我介紹個男生，唱雙簧般，呵呵！
朋友的男友非常落力在介紹，想必是要解開重重荊棘，不讓自己的女友有機會，卻又覺得這男生不錯。
他們的互動既像情侶，又像排檔，兩人胡鬧互打，譏笑彼此，卻不失對對方的關心及了解，感覺甜蜜。
看著他們，我的臉蛋往上揚了好久。
離別前他還提醒我下次快點回來，太搞笑了！

過後還接力和弟妹們唱歌到深夜，我還真年青啊！
吃東西，聊天，拍照，看電影，睡覺，家常便事，幸福滿滿。
他們慢慢長大了，各個有自己的事情，煩惱，
希望可以多多陪著他們，一起成長。

工作愉快！

Year Without A Summer 無夏之年 Berkelana

It sounded a little bit hard sale with the title and yes,(!) I want you to watch this movie. Year Without A Summer by Tan Chui Mui, a local independent director, currently mon patron :)

The film traveled to many places, overseas, first in Pusan, Rotterdam, Australia, US, all the continents, and now it's back to its homeland - Malaysia! I wish I was a film, or a tape, gets to travel everywhere!

It will be screened in TGV KLCC from 24th - 30th April 2011, followed by peninsular tour in major cities : Penang, JB and Kemaman Terengganu, the location nearest to the set of the film. I get to travel too this time! 

This image was the design of the film postcard. I like it very much, 

so does some postcrosser who vote it as their favourite postcard.

I first watch this film in the cinema was during my working trip to International Film Festival of Rotterdam. 

Working on the subtitles, I have actually viewed this film for many times, in the PC of course. However, the experience in the cinema was a total difference, with a better sound and image (persuading..). Azam is one of the main character in the film who keeps running away from the current and real life. It resembles a period in my working life, which I experienced few months back, while at the same time, looking at some points of my life, I do the same as Azam. I think many people tend to run away when problem comes right into the face. The realization of myself running and chasing my tail has helped me live better, at least I wake up and head to work in a happier and lighter mood.

Attention : this is an arty film, poetic, slow but meaningful (to me, as it mirrors my life). So, be prepared for a different cinematic experience.

Get the ticket and watch it! Oh ya, good news to students! It will be a free movie pass if you flash your valid student card at the counter in respective mentioned cinemas. Student reservation could be made by sending an email with the subject of ' YWS Student Screening ' to :  winniechiangwn@gmail.com. Details to be included in the email are : date of screening, name, contact no and email.

Enough of the publicity.
My swimming time.

Have a great weekend!

詩情畫意

太久沒有這樣靜靜坐著半天，無需説話，無需太多思考。
在月樹，可以呆上半天，聼著不同國籍的音樂，喝香濃咖啡，吃好吃的蛋糕。
最近的生活方式很是極端，要不是工作到夠夠力，就是運動到半夜三四點。
想說好好的抒發疲憊，卻是更疲憊，還在工作與玩樂閒拉扯。
念頭不停浮現還沒完成的工作，卻因為腦子裝滿了假日不該工作的概念，
許多郵件也不回復了。有時候，這樣做會是個災難。
花了一些時間細讀別人的文字，品嘗別人的生活，有種穿越時空的感覺。

曾經想帶他來月樹吃提拉米囌，卻太晚，打烊了。
現在剩下我、老闆，和兩位怪伯伯，在這鬧市的一塊寧靜中。
伯伯說我和咖啡很詩情畫意，想請我喝咖啡。
百般拒絕，老闆幫口，蛋糕咖啡自付。
還真是有點擔心老闆呢。

Car In The Pocket

These are not my 1st scratches. Poor Vios. Poor Mom. I hope she scolds me. That would make me feel better. But the car will remain like this until it's sold out or I spend money to repaint it. I am losing confidence of my driving skill. I used to drive very well. Now, I hit the tree, I bang into divider, I can't park in the box. Is there any problem with my sight or my balancing? Maybe I should get a thorough body check up. Or maybe I should rest more and work less. I work for nothing? I am not so sure about it.  Yesterday, I was wanting to meet a person to pass him the book at Sin Chew Jit Po, I got stuck in the long long traffic jam. I am forced to/ I chose to park my car at the road side and walked there which took me less than 3 minutes. It felt like I was small and fast. I was very happy and laughed in my heart those people got stuck in the car. I finished my business and I headed back to the car, which was another 2 minutes. Back and forth 4 minutes. I saw the same car, still, at its original position. Poor thing. Poor me. Poor my Vios. I can't move it. My ego told me I should walk back home. So I left my car by the roadside and headed home in the notorious section 17 because I couldn't get anyone to pick me up. One of my housemate who didn't pick up my phone scolded me nicely and threatened not to talk to me for one week if I would do this again.If I was the one who brought the car, would I leave it there? I walked back with my sweat and the feeling of guilt. How would my mum reacts when she know this? I've been living too well, isn't it? See pictures my newest 'artistic lines' for the car, which I am not really proud of. I should not be in the arty industry. Let me know if you have any cheap way to cure these lines before my mum decides to buy a 1970 car for me. Thanks in advance. Oh ya people, do watch Flower In The Pocket, I like it very much and I think you should not miss it. Take care.
