I need to get out of this fix.
"Paper Boats"
Nada Surf
Sit on a train, reading a book
Same damn planet every time i look
Try to relax and slow my heartbeat
Only works when i'm dead asleep
Been thinking and drinking all over the town
Must be gearing up for some kind of melt-down
All i am is a body floating down-wind
What's wrong?
Nothing
Are you sure nothing's wrong?
Yeah
But you're sad about something
Yeah
So tell me what
I don't know
I can't tell you
All i am is a body floating down-wind
As the express train passes the local
It moves by just like a paper boat
Although it weighs a million pounds
I swear it almost seems to float
And as we pass by each other
Our heads all full of bother
We can't look, we can't stop
We can't think, we can't stop
Because we're stuck in our own paths
And it's the way it always lasts
But i need something more from you

梦醒以后
梦みたあとで
每当早晨来临我就会想起你
连一天的开始也充满惆怅
难道无法再挽回了吗?天真的我俩
曾经只要能待在你身边我就感到无限的幸福
随着时间的流逝 我害怕的哭泣
对于逐渐改变的人心
明明知道若无所求的话就不会有所失的
但却无法无所求啊
不管未来往后的路遇到怎样的情况
在梦境醒来之后
你仍离我遥远
只是我想太多毫无进展
飘下花瓣雨的这条路依旧不变
好想能与你手挽着手漫步其中啊
即使争吵而让彼此变得疲倦但总会再见面
那样的日子能够持续到什么时候呢
有时对于与生俱来的感情
只会让人感到忧郁而已
在寂寞的夜晚里回想到的
只是被曾经爱过的人所深爱的每一天
梦境醒来之后
在被打开窗户的另一端
眼前所呈现的是一分为二的风声
对于呼啸而过之后的寂静所西下的太阳
过于的温柔以致于徒增爱恋
梦境醒来之后
现在无法传达给你
对于没有爱意的话语不能引起悸动
对于与我稍微保持距离守候着我的你
虽心中有点迷惑脸上仍带着微笑
你仍离我遥远
只是我想太多毫无进展
就像是逐渐破灭的 在长长的 梦境醒来之后
and yet...
There will still be love in this world

不可抗力
最近在翻译一份建筑工程协议,其中的一章是专门词汇定义。诸如承包人、分包人、开工日、竣工日云云,相当枯燥脑残。我看到了这么个词“不可抗力”:指代不可预知、不可避免、不可克服的客观情况。翻译成英文就是Force Majeure, or Act of God: unforeseeable, unavoidable, insurmountable objective conditions。我想说不定可以翻成Act of Buddha。
今年的Pirelli calendar舞台设于上海,这是自发行起首次定点于亚洲。简单来说,Pirelli Calendar等同于'Nobel prize in fashion photography',负责此项目的摄影师和被选入镜的模特都享有极高的声誉。这次以旧上海为主题也是首次吹起“亚洲风”。邀请的模特里有张曼玉、杜鹃和Mo Wandan(谁?)XD
Image archive: 官方网站
60%的布景还挺有上海味的,可那个妆倒像艺妓,旗袍也没露个面,都是些半改装的唐服配蕾丝束腰。猛一看是“东方”,渗透却不够彻底。作品本身非常漂亮,无争议。

奇妙和莫名其妙
奇妙:
看到网上有人凭记忆默写并翻译出约两三千字的文章,和实际的逐字翻译相差无几,真是佩服! “先生您的记忆力太厉害了,根本就是个intel inside” - 这句评论真厚道。
莫名其妙:
小颖,你好,
我给你改了名字,新名字为朱膺越,这个名字比较好,英文也不变。在网上测试这个名字的得分为97分。所以我以后就叫你小膺。希望你喜欢。
爸爸
回复:
别开玩笑了!
我爸给外甥起的名字“朱聃灵”被用了,我看他自认为很了不起还在瘾头上。

Aoi Teshima - The Rose (cover)
像妈妈一样温柔的声音,这位绝对是治愈系的。
The Rose
Original artist: Bette Midler
Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razer
that leaves your soul to blead
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of wakingthat never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose

颓废洋风
网游。。。最近睡眠严重不足,还逞强早期吃早饭。
多田由美(Tada Yumi)
http://www.tadayumi.sakura.ne.jp/
我说这画风怎么那么眼熟,洋风、摇滚、颓废,原来是咎井淳的“导师”啊!见过几次插画但都不知道是她-.-!现在对号入座了,转来转去还是这几个人。
比较一下多田和咎井淳。咎井淳倒是在多田的基础上更少年化了,但不可否认多田对其风格的绝倒性影响。CG油性笔刷的质感也是多田所受?
多田
咎井淳
wild wild web一大抄,原笔是谁不知道,抱歉了。
多田由美
性别:女
出生地:大阪府
出道:1986年在月刊《ASUKA》上发表出道作
主要作品:《没有太阳也无所谓》、《内向的尊尼》、《TOYDOLL》、《接吻Nu-Nile》、《红宝石星期二》、《神之名》、《TRUE BLUE决不褪色》、《LUDLOW GARAGE》等。
日本著名漫画家,但是奇怪的是她很少甚至是几乎完全不画亚洲人,她笔下大多都是各种各样颓废的男子形象,由于画风和一些其他的原因,他的作品在华语地区很少见到。仅有的就是上述的3种,而且从1998年之后,多田老师好象致力于开拓插画领域,而很少再绘制漫画了,这不能不说是一个遗憾。相当多的漫画家都深受多田由美的影响,如台湾的漫画家咎井淳、插画家平凡等,基本上,她的画风比较适合年轻并且受到现代派影响的读者的喜爱。

Death to originality
After hearing those comparisons, I would say some are too similar to be coincidences! This's a bit disturbing coming from one of my most beloved composers...I had so much respect for originality. I thought she worked from scratch! Burst my bubble now!

原来不是淋巴=.=
生病的那几天左右腋下、胸口都激烈胀痛,我一度以为是淋巴节多劳。(ET大人尖叫:Lymph! All the more evidence you're going SYSTEMIC! You need a doctor NOW! - 被无视了)后来终有疑点,比如说我的喉咙一切正常。回忆一下教科书图似乎右边腋下才是主要淋巴节,可我是左边胀得厉害,病好后的两天依旧痛,毫无消减。。。今天终于发现是PMS!靠,我已经完全无法想象这个快脱水的身体如何一边消耗白细胞杀病毒、一边释放荷尔蒙准备排卵,这两件事同等重要吗?!本尊挂了能有下一代么?!很不合理啊!我看我整个人都处于chaotic, non-prioritising mode.
- 以上是对看不见的系统的小感叹
晚餐:Teriyaki素食pasta(华人店里找不到Ham),后来因为太素了终于没能吃完=.=
另,没有番茄的pasta是不完美的。

生病第四天终于有好转迹象可以下床兜兜了。妈妈说会不会是遗传,她年轻的时候一伤风就呕吐不停,吐完就好了。前天晚上我每隔半小时就吐一次,真是绝望啊,鼻涕眼泪呕吐物混在一起酸酸的。今天想起来用久违的四格漫重温一下当时的感受,快点快点康复吧T.T

热病
窗外看似很温暖 手冰冷
就算左手握住右手也无法传达任何温度
我有没有温度 在四角的床中把自己深深埋葬
赖床不起的病人好似只有一个大脑
悲伤的事、快乐的事、想吃的东西、痊愈后的生活
一件一件在疼痛欲裂的骷髅头中唤起
似乎都有答案,还不只一个答案
“你只是现在格外脆弱。”
这么想着 四肢蜷缩的更紧
梦中那人握着我的手 一边笑一边看连续剧
没完没了到让我尴尬让我幸福
还打了一轮奇妙的八十分 纸牌变成了麻薯饼
他们说 只能从同一堆里摸
于是从同一堆麻薯饼里摸出的牌都是绿茶馅儿的
我一定是饿醒的
头痛潮退 心满意足

后觉有点像Reeves,完全不是故意的。
推荐Daniel Egneus,他的风格算是流行设计?把很多漂亮的物体堆砌起来,用ink和淡彩突出主要线条。我觉得他的画里有东亚风啊。

杂谈
很久不看TedTalks,今天兴致来了看了一期 - 讨论话题为Meme。这词我貌似认得,但又很肯定大学课堂上没专门提出过。
Talks Dan Dennett: Ants, terrorism, and the awesome power of memes
看完了模糊得出的结论是:
1. Meme是人文化的思想产物(culture,propaganda,idea,habit etc.),是个中性词,起源于The Selfish Gene这本著作(没读过-.-)。
2. 学术牛逼们认为Meme以生物繁衍的行为传播,在达尔文的魔爪下进化/淘汰。(可以形象理解为“病毒”,但介于“病毒”贬义居多,不是很确切。)
3. 怎样对待Meme:分析事实,不要被洗脑、不要强加于人、莫激动。
如果任何一个定义(idea, oncology)都算是Meme,那Meme这个词的存在也是Meme?我想到final fantasy电影里那一根根虚无的'thought threads',有点像??

昨天看了Plata Quemada(Burnt Money),讲的是以小说改编的真实故事。一对形影不离的“双胞胎”恋人Nene & Angel合伙抢劫,Angel受了伤,警察也在全面搜查。那伙人一时拿不到逃离用的护照被困,期间Angel在宗教和感情间挣扎逐渐疏远Nene,Nene很郁闷一直在外鬼混,两个人越搞越僵。后来护照落空,Nene的婊子被甩了很不爽就告发了他们,最后俩人和警察对战死在火焰中。
我介绍的很RP。。。俩男主角表演精湛很有感染力,属于心理虐待类作品,喜欢沉痛话题的人不妨看看。
片断节选
大概是讲:Angel受伤了Nene帮他取子弹,因为没有麻药很痛,Nene让那女的拿Whiskey给Angel壮胆。Nene看那女的在一旁不走很烦,就说“那你来动手术啊”,女的说不会,Nene一下子狂吼“那还不走!” 取子弹时说了一泡分散注意力的话“英语单词我一个都不会,以后去纽约你一定要帮我,不然厕所都上不了。”后来老头子来了,开始严肃的话题。
土豆网上的翻译真不是人看的,比如Nene取子弹时哄Angel说'Easy Easy',翻成“容易 容易”-.-! 我看到后来完全凭中文来猜英文,累啊!
小说翻译 (原文)
他们被称作双胞胎,因为他们形影不离。但其实他们并不是兄弟,长得一点也不像。说实话,这世上再难找到两个比他们更不相像的人了。他们的共同点是看人的样子——灰白、平静的眼睛狠狠盯视着一张可疑的脸。多尔达阴沉、安静,红润的脸庞上挂着安逸的微笑。布利诺涅纤瘦、灵活,有着黑色的头发与苍白的皮肤,看上去好像他在监狱里呆的时间比实际上要长。
他们从Bulnes的地铁站出来,在一家照相馆的窗前停下来,确认自己没有被跟踪。他们那像一对拳击手一样显眼的外表很容易引起别人的注意。他们精致考究地穿着黑色双襟西服,指甲和头发都经过精心修剪。傍晚十分宁静,是一个带着清澈白色光芒的干净的春日傍晚。人们正在下班赶着回家,流动的空气包围着他们。

I will if we could
初三那年我的好朋友得知我要去新加坡,当场哭了出来,那时我们在苏州大公园散步。我不知所措但无法和她的悲伤共鸣。国外的世界太新奇了,我身边也不缺朋友,又不是生离死别,我怎么可能难过。高中毕业离开新加坡,我难过了,但也很快忘记了。大学毕业离开多伦多,走的匆忙我啥感觉都没有。但就这样青春期认识的令人难忘的面孔一个一个飞过,像地下铁发动加速时缓慢随后疾速闪过的彩色海报,窗外只剩道道晃眼的白光。昨天那人说,梦见我带着她在多大的校园骑车,速度还不错。这要拍成电影就叫廊桥遗梦。谁都不想长大的,这过渡期显得格外苦涩。 让人留恋的东西数不清,所以怀旧是无底的,遗憾是无尽的,但生活是向前看的。眼睛若长在脑袋后面怕是危机重重。我好想念你们,若再给我一次镜头机会我要把你们每个人的骨头拥抱得咯吱咯吱响,把你们心爱的衣服哭脏哭皱,等隔数年相见再给你们捎件新的,随即发现各位尺码已变。
我只想保持一颗年轻的心去体会这些苦与乐,无论是过去还是未来。

Recent stats from my blog generated by Google Webmaster Tools
Query No.2 sent my nostrils flare. Should I pat myself it didn't come up within the top 10 searches. I only blogged about Greg Mendel once and if I have near perfect memory, I made an one-liner comment about how doomed he was seeing beyond his generation. And that was my sophomore year! Google's still crawling among the ashes?!
Website optimization is a crucial tactic to get yourself ahead of the game. Though in this case it just gives me pure pleasure of voyeurism. Since Google plays monopoly in search engine wars, Google PageRank is the determining factor in your site's visibility. PageRank does not depend on the no. of links 'out', nor does it matter how many external sites link to you if those sites don't rank higher than 3 or 4. You can have a thousand low ranked sites link to you but still come bottom. The calculation is by 'mutual link' on established site. For starters with limited network, you can try placing a link on Wikipedia, but make sure your site is relevant and worth a link or else you get pulled within days if not minutes. It works well for non-profit personal sites. Links to business sites require $$$$$$ and contracted relationship such as 'partner', 'sponsor', 'associate'. Who in their kindest generosity would give you a free ride when they pay big bucks on promotion?
Another thing you can do is to flesh up contents and meta descriptions. Insert crucial keywords (not 'porn', not 'lust caution 腋毛'. NO!)
Google webmaster tool is relatively new. I navigated around a bit. The stats they offer aren't any new from general site meters, except they have the advantage of bundling their services together to give integrated information, namely Google reader feeds, google keywords, blogger, and you don't need to install tracker codes on your website. However, there's a verification step where you either paste a 'tag' (a meta code) or upload a html file to your website to confirm you own the site. They could link blogger accounts to Goolge accounts for automatic verification. Won't that be easier.
I was hoping it would give me more detailed rss feeder stats such as the whos and wheres. But no... I'm not sure if it's a privacy or technical concern. Sure you can track visitors when they click to your site. What's so different with offline visit?

The stats they offer aren't any new from general site meters, except they have the advantage of bundling their services together to give integrated information, namely Google reader feeds, google keywords, blogger, and you don't need to install tracker codes on your website. However, there's a verification step where you either paste a 'tag' (a meta code) or upload a html file to your website to confirm you own the site. They could link blogger accounts to Goolge accounts for automatic verification. Won't that be easier.
I was hoping it would give me more detailed rss feeder stats such as the whos and wheres. But no... I'm not sure if it's a privacy or technical concern. Sure you can track visitors when they click to your site. What's so different with offline visit?
