Vanilla apple white tea



继Lipton Sri Lankan Tea后的新欢,苹果香草的味道(估计是桂皮),很清爽嗒!

From Official site
Ingredients: Organic white tea, organic jasmine green tea (green tea, jasmine), organic orange peel, organic licorice, natural vanilla and apple flavors, organic cinnamon, organic chamomile, organic apples and organic lavender.

听Norah Jones的Butterfly,背景里有个老男人的声音问着“Who are you and what were you before?” Paranoic man!

喜欢Young Pilgrims,节奏变化很自然,歌词也很开朗,贴过来欣赏。为什么很多punk/rock乐团都能写一手好歌词呢?



Young Pilgrims
The Shins

a cold and wet november dawn,
and there are no barking sparrows.
just emptiness to dwell upon.

i fell into a winter slide,
and ended up the kinda kid who goes down chutes too narrow.
just eeking out my measly pipes

but i learned fast
how to keep my head up
cause i know there is this side of me that...
wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just...
fly the whole mess into the sea

another slow train to the coast
some brand you glory-eyed from way on high
i sink and then i swim all night.

i watch the ice melt on the glass,
while the eloquent young pilgrims pass,
and leave behind a trail...
imploring us all not to fail

of course i was raised to gather courage from those...
lofty tales so tried and true, but
if you're able
i'd suggest it cuz this...
modern thought can get the best of you.

this rather simple epitaph can save your hide

fate isn't what we're up against
there's no design, your flaws are fine
there's no design, your flaws are fine

but i learned fast how to...
keep my head up cuz i...
know i've got this side of me that..
wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and...
fly the whole mess into...the...sea

班上有个叫Emily的女生,原来也是RJ毕业的。在多伦多碰到新加坡人没什么新奇,10个新加坡人有3个是RJ毕业的,那也没什么新奇。也许是同学三年没说过话,所以难得搭上话了觉得很特别。很可爱很顺眼的女生,头发卷卷的编成碎麻花,眼睛并不大但很温柔,完全是我喜欢的类型。很搞笑的是,我们核对是不是同一年入学的,偏偏我们两个都不记时间。就像问路的问不出个东南西北,只知道标志性建筑物,冷饮店旁边或公园门外之类的。我们开始回想JC两年发生的各种事件,比如谁是学生会主席(我说是个高的,她说是矮的,可都忘了名字),生物老师是谁,课外活动内容,云云。结果还是达不成任何共识。我暂时认为她比我早一届。一个星期后的实验课她跑来我们桌子接水,突然说“我还是觉得我们是同一届的。”然后又开始绞尽脑汁想些标志性建筑物。如果当年新生欢迎会校长走上讲台时摔了一跤,那我们就能哈哈大笑说,果然是一届的。不过一米九的校长还健在,像我们学校的常青树。。。
