    American dream

    How ironic , my bf is now on his way to the USA on his 9-day business trip, right after that, my dear dad is gonna start off his second tour to the US in the mid of Sept,  and my mom is due to have one-week-stay in the America on businss in the late Sept. America, America, always America, one of my sweet college roommates got married and settled down in the east of the US, at some place called stamford, one of my kin studied industrial design in L.A, and one of my ex-colleagues pursued her master/PHD  degree in Cincinatti.
     
    因为爸爸在民航工作的原因,所以要经常出差飞来飞去,记得很小的时候,爸爸就总是出差,第一次是出国是去日本,那年我只有5岁,爸爸给我带回了一台Casio的电子琴,漂亮的衣服,还有一台冰箱.从此我也开始了我的学琴生涯...
     
    爸爸说,在中国,他除了西藏和台湾还没有去过,其他的省份他都或多说少的去过很多次,他还经常出国,欧洲去过5次,非洲2次,东南亚3次,美国2次,家里满是带有exotic 风情的souvenirs. 爸爸说希望以后有机会能去南美,澳洲还有北欧....
     
    一直向往这样的生活,可以游遍全球各地,赏天下美景,品各地cuisine. Yet, east or west, home is the best. 爸爸也常说他去过那么多国家还是觉得北京亲切, 我常问他为什么在上海度过了大学四年却对上海没有那么深的感情,他告诉我,北京更大气更包容.是啊,这点我也甘同深厚。 即使自己身处国外/异地,心中总摸不去对北京的思念,思念那四九城的一抹红,长长的长安街,静谧的使馆区,北京的一切都都深深刻在我心里...
     
     
     

    Flashback

    这些日子,很想念在英国的日子,那些曾经一起欢笑的朋友,还有那间承载我所有dream的my little warm room.
     
    我那家room,曾是很多来过的朋友羡慕的large room, 有两大扇通透的英式窗,  每天清早当我打开窗帘,就会感受到新的一天的美好,backyard, blue  sky, fresh air...
     
    接连梦到在newcastle 的日子,Leazes Terrace, St James Park, Armstrong building, Library, The Fenwick, 还有那个大大的coffee lounge.
     
    还有那些dear friends, 一起在听到fire alarm drill 的时候狼狈的样子,一起去shopping 的畅快,一起聊天的真挚和温暖,那时候的我们是那样的单纯,他乡遇故知的欣慰,还有在我即将离开的那天,你陪我去river of tyne 边漫步。 我们曾经互诉衷肠,娓娓讲述自己的感情经历,也曾经相互扶持get through the tough time..
     
    现在的大家都已经回国settle down, contact也不象以前那样平常,只是大家都会不约而同的想起那段日子, the good old days.

    The pursuit of happiness

     What is happiness all about?
    Happiness is right out there, and we, each and every one of us is on our way to pursue it.
    Happiness is something that we can only pursue, and maybe actually we can never have it, no matter what.
     
     I happen to know God is always fair enough, he could open a wide door for you and shut down a window of opportunity in return. Whatever, I can say, I feel happier now, more than ever, not in specific fashion, but in a fit state.
     
    I used to keep an eye on the dark side, and think too much before calling the shots. That could be right, but hard to tell...
     
    Now I intend to light myself up by shifting my phelosophy of  living . Life is tough, if you see it as your top prority mission, but life could be easy, if you perceive it as a long distance journey. As a journey, you might bump into some soulmates to go along with you and keep you company, and you might even be hit by bid surprises you never expect, and end up with enchanting and rewarding outcome...
