還好手機與台胞證還在....

今天(3/31)坐動車從天津到青島, 展開長達11天的出差跟旅行.

14:06~19:22五個多小時的車程真累, 慘的是出火車才發現皮夾不見了..., 衝回火車座位找半天找不到, 問車站人員也無人撿到 (就算有人撿到, 也沒人會乖乖拿給車站人員吧...), 頓時發覺身上一毛錢也沒有, 沒錢吃飯, 沒錢坐出租車到飯店, 就算到了飯店也沒錢check in..., 只好打給台灣朋友許大哥請他來載, 在肯德基等他時, 才發現我已經一身汗...

細細回想也想不起來到底何時掉的?只記得在天津西站等車時, 從皮夾裡拿出車票, 是對皮夾最後的印象. 皮夾裡放了離開天津前提領的2,000多大洋, 信用卡, 提款卡, 還有台灣的駕照..., 損失不小...

想到撿到 (還是扒到)我皮夾的人現在的嘴臉, 就覺得很幹, 丟錢事小, 當作花錢消災, 只希望沒有啥後遺症.

還好台胞證還在, 可以入住飯店, 搭飛機; 還好手機還在, 可以搬救兵...

The Way Old Friends Do

A good song from ABBA, http://hittrax.com.au/youtube.asp?ccode=ST6202&Dealer=1016&InetOrder=True

You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do

And after fights and words of violence
We make up with each other
The way old friends do

Times of joy and times of sorrow
We will always see it through
Oh I don't care what comes tomorrow

We can face it together
The way old friends do


To Yuhua and my dear friends.

好聽的主題曲與配樂

突然想到, 自己雖然僅看過為數不多的日劇, 且好像都還不是挺熱門的日劇, 但都很喜歡其好聽的主題曲或配樂. 例如2006年的"我們都是新鮮人" (Beginner), 主題曲是耳熟人詳的Top of the world, 但我更喜歡其插曲"I'd like to teach the world to sing", 是某年可口可樂古老的廣告曲: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mOEU87SBTU
有一段時間, 這首歌還是我的手機鈴聲.
附上可愛的歌詞 :
I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow-white turtle doves
I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to hold it in my arms
And keep it company (That's the song I hear)
I'd like to see the world for once (Let the world sing today)
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
For peace throughout the land
That's the song I hear (That's the song I hear)
Let the world sing today (Let the whole wide world keep singing)
A song of peace that echoes on
And never goes away

還有"十四才の母", 主題曲是Mr. Children的 しるし(標記)
主唱櫻井溫暖的歌聲跟這部日劇很搭!

暌違近兩年的游泳

一個也在天津的台灣朋友James介紹,上週去天津奧林匹克體育場的一家寶力豪健身辦了會員,今天第一次去。

早上起了很早(八點半,對週日來說算很早了),10點到。其實這家設施很普通,置物櫃要自己帶鎖、拖鞋要自己帶,淋浴間沒有沐浴乳,於是忙了一會兒,大概拖了半小時後,才放好東西換好泳褲進到泳池。泳池不大,僅兩個水道,長25m,水質不太清澈但可以接受。

上一次游泳是我還在台灣工作的時候,已將近兩年的時間了!到大陸工作後,一直找不到合適的地方游。週末早起運動的感覺其實不錯,希望可以維持下去。

跟James討論了薊縣盤山、清東陵之旅,這兩個地方我一直想要去,盤山是乾隆皇帝曾讚嘆"早知有盤山,何必下江南"之名山、清東陵是滿清順治、康熙與乾隆等帝陵所在,大概等五月再去吧。

CHANGE 日劇

節奏很快的日劇,在戲裡,可看到日本的一些政治文化,在政治家族的影響力下,一個小學老師可以繼承父業,順利選上國會議員,又在政治陰謀下被推上了日本總理的高位。還有選議員似乎就一定要在街頭發表演說,這也是很有趣的現象。

充滿理想與希望的劇情,一個完全無政治經驗的小學老師,可以靠著拼命苦幹的精神,把總理幹得很好、深受愛戴,而且內閣中的大臣沒有一個是他認識而任命的,靠的只是身旁的精明幹練的秘書跟幾個助理。

哈,這只是日劇嘛,其實還滿好看的,戲裡幽默的風格跟快節奏的劇情看得很過癮,還有搞笑的競選廣告、總理部落格...



主題曲也很好聽,還是瑪丹娜唱的,"Miles Away"
可以聽看看 http://www.kekenet.com/song/62380.shtml

歌詞也很不錯~
I just woke up from a fuzzy dream
You never would believe those things that I had seen
I looked in the mirror and I saw your face
You looked right through me, you were miles away

All my dreams, they fade away
I'll never be the same
If you could see me the way you see yourself
I can't pretend to be someone else

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, you're miles away
You're not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we're at our best, we're miles away

So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away
So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away

When no-one's around and I have you here
I begin to see the picture, it becomes so clear
You always have the biggest heart
When we're six thousand miles apart

Too much of no sound
Uncomfortable silence can be so loud
Those three words are never enough
When it's long distance love

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, you're miles away
You're not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we're at our best, we're miles away

So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away
So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away

I'm alright
Don't be sorry, but it's true
When I'm gone, you realize
That I'm the best thing that happened to you
