风筝飞，日落下 ／／（ 天时、地利、人和 ）

a few weeks ago, it suddenly dawned upon me that... i am currently twenty something..when i am thirty something, my parents will be seventy something.... when i am forty something, God-willing, they will be eighty something!! and i thought that my dad is so blessed that at age sixty something, he still has his mother around.

and so the next day i decided to start making it a point to mai tu liao with regards to things that we say we want to do together. and so i took them to Henderson waves cos we've been talking about going there for yonks.

and it was a wonderful impromptu morning. : ]

haha and earlier this week was part two of the new mai tu liao mantra... after finishing up some work in the morning and spending the afternoon in my childhood neighbourhood with my lindy hop ensemble friends for an AEP assembly thingie, i found the afternoon super sunny, windy and absolutely favourable for kite-flying.

and so with the kites i've been buying with much secret hope in my heart from the toy shop at tan quee lan the past few times i've been running errands in the area, i carted my parents off to marina barrage to finally go fly kite (literally) together!

after a few days of "风筝已备，只欠东风" the wind finally came accompanied with glorious sunshine!

wah i think it was the first time in my life that i've flown a kite so high up that it took almost half an hour just winding it back down when we had to leave. it was a real struggle to get the kite really flying high cos as my father pointed out to me, i had bought a kite meant for 3 year olds haha. we even had to tumpang the kite string. i think that means join it up. anyway wah sunshine, wind, kite and laughing parents.















song boh!!

回故

在去年的这个时候我好像用了我的好光相机捕捉了一个小男孩在人群中带着超大的观阳镜的画面。不知道为什么，这个画面常时不时的浮现在我的想像中。。。

i was thinking about this picture i took about a year ago. with a little spectator boy and his oversized disposable shades for looking at the sunrise we were all sharing. wondering if it was really exactly a year ago, i went to check out my notebook from that trip and wow true enough, i really did take this picture exactly a year ago! 2nd july 2008. zhun until cannot zhun siah. wah my sudden moments of clear memory amidst my general lack of day to day memory do scare me a fair bit sometimes too.



一年前在阿里山的友团。一年后在回故的我。

时间啊时间，你可以不要飞得那么快吗？

记得在前往苏澳火车上偶然遇到的年长夫妇和也在毕业旅行的年轻情侣都很友善的主动跟我们交谈。阿姨还说我们好像还挺开心的。

好想念跟一伙人去长途旅行的感觉咽！

我们今年是否能去文莱探望文莱公主呢？

希望。希望。我们去实现吧！

好久没有这样哗啦哗啦的掉泪了。（勿担心，我不难过， 只是被电影影响而已！）

今天看了一部电影，又勾起了我对于 回忆，时间 和 人生 的一些启发和感动。

回家的路上我突然间又想起了某个痛处， 一边开车一边哗啦哗啦地哭了。而今早我又感到了摸名的灵感，带了朋友送我的手帕插在裤子旁边的口带。

原来是种预言，手帕真的派上了用场耶。

when i am happy i take photos. when i am sad i take photos. oddly enough, the photos quite often turn out happy when i am sad and sad when i am happy. whichever happens, the process and the outcome usually work together as a healing experience, making me really feel better as a result. photography heals.

摄影能疗伤。

在哗啦哗啦的当而， 我想起了数年前我也在回家的路途上感伤的事件，又想起了当时拍下的感觉，一到家后屏了命去寻找那一套画面， 在差一点放弃的时候然我找到了。感谢主，若我找不到我一定睡不安。

几个小时前，为了记念再一度感受到回家时感处累累的经历，我再红灯前停车时用手机拍的：


零六年四月雨天。
在巴士公车即将到终站相机的单眼陪着我的双眼一起漠糊时拍的：





刚刚发现：原来我在那个时候就开时倾向我近日常用的漠糊式摄影了。真奇妙！

其实我看电影也蛮容易被感动到哭的。mamma-mia 也可以把我弄哭，我真的是赢了咯，哈。 （可是今天看的当然不是 mamma-mia 啦。。）

现在终于可以平安入睡了。


。 。 。 哦，现在真的跟零六年的那一天一样－－－突然下起倾盆大雨了！


我得去关窗了！晚安！
