我也來個奧運雜談~

看見大家都談奧運和「劉翔受傷真相」,我也來加把口~

對於劉翔,我個人的意見是,劉翔只是個二十五歲的年輕人,年輕有為自不然沾沾自喜,而這些小挫折都只不過是其成長的經歷,一切都很平常。但我們如果是如此有 point, 為何不讓他好好的享受他熱愛的運動,讓他在當中經歷起跌、慢慢成長?為什麼偏要他背負那麼多人的期望?彷彿他是為他人而活似的。

說回頭,似乎中國人都不習慣讓別人 do something just for the love of doing it. 我們幹什麼都特別沉重。跨欄才不是跨欄,是為了向西方宣示一些東西(莫不是想說中國人對腳原來都可以舉得起?),你劉翔如果沒有了喎炆果渣,你算什麼?所以你理應替喎炆比賽以打敗列強!辦奧運才不是宣揚體育與和平,是為了一雪百年之恥,誰叫你們那些早已進棺材的大兵來我們那個早已不在的皇朝肆虐!(當年的東亞病夫而家幾巴閉!尼炆「老美」耶 bu 高喎炆啦磨多煎排!)

剛才讀到一位同學的日記,提到親朋間拿子女來競爭、不比拼不快樂。喎炆宗果忍,總是怕被人瞧不起,卻忘記了年輕人本來應該擁有自己的夢想,本就應該憑自己的勇氣去闖去嘗試。

走天下,那是年輕人該做的事,又何苦讓成長變得太沉重?

當然,我們確有著特別沉重的歷史壓在肩上,不得已,所以才如斯敏感。但我認為,如果我們現在是「文明社會」了,則誰都不該是誰的工具。只要我們談的是一個人,則他不應該成為任何人追逐其他任何目標的工具。

我這說法沒錯是有點天真,但我慶幸我仍然天真。

另外,我很同意郭老師對「我們就是奧運台」的評論!昨晚塵伯長說「接住黎我地有溏心風暴睇」的時候,我們也同時呆掉了!還好香港還有別的電視台!當 yelena isinbaewa 第三次試跳成功,看似輕描淡寫的躍過5.05m 的時候,不也就像夏偉誠同學所說,關菊英剛好唱到「本來無心害你」?哈哈,這就是香港。

「我們就是奧運台」無心害了我們這班手無寸鐵的觀眾。


我上面不是說中國人應該忘記從前的國恥,我意思只是說,凡事不用上綱上線,其實每一天每一人都默默做好自己,國恥就自然得雪。

(你看我,多害怕現在的憤青潮,連我這樣的潑辣女子,都被嚇怕了。)

from michael phelps to liu xiang

today i read a nice article about Michael Phelps. i found out Michael Phelps is a very down-to-earth young man who simply likes swimming a lot. i LOVE the last paragraph the most -

'...Phelps stood on the medal podium for the last time at these Games, looked off into the distance at his mother and two sisters and finally let the emotion wash over him. Maybe that’s the last lesson he learned in all of this. Sometimes the best things in life aren’t accomplishing the impossible dreams or winning the most inconceivable races. Sometimes it’s not about the gold medals you collect, but the people who you share them with.'

i feel really strongly about it. growing up, to me, does not mean doing big things. it just means learning to treasure. you have to try your best at everything. the reason to do that is NOT to earn any fame, but to make you get to understand who you are, why you have to do this and ultimately who and what you must treasure.

and i like the perspective of this writer. he treats Phelps as what he is - a young man, but not a national hero.

on the contrary, liu xiang is so poor. he can never grow as the person he is, but he always has to shoulder the big big big name of 十三億人的希望. when he is healthy, he is the sweetheart of 十三億人. when he is unhealthy, he still needs to put up with the overwhelming care of 十三億人.

god... how big a thing that is. imagine, how you would feel if you had 十三億個非常敏感而熱情既阿媽... 郁D就吶喊、郁D就衝去學校搵你、你一病就又喊又暈仲o係電視度為你奏哀樂乜濟... how would you feel??

yet again, that is cultural difference. and that comes from different historical baggage.

summer induction (for 6A)

some of you said you're not very clear about who is to go back and who is not for the summer induction. i'll kind of sort things out here~

okay, as i later realized there are some posts in the program that do not have much to do honestly, i combine these posts into one. that's why i could cut down the manpower i need in the end.

also, as the chinese literature group has extra lesson on August 20, which means you guys cannot join our rehearsal, it's pretty silly to ask those people to come back as leaders whereas they have no idea what to play, i decided to let these students be freed for the program.

out of the above two reasons i kind of rearranged our division of labor. these are the students whose help i need -

natalie, alice, vincent, sharon, wan sze hang, connie, ming, kinko, star, jessica.

if i didnt put you in groups but you really want to come back and help me, you're most welcome. just give me a call or drop me an sms. i'd love your help of course! i cut down the manpower only because i thought you guys deserve a nice summer. it's not like i dont want you, but it's definitely good-intentioned.

by the way, i've asked different students to call different people about the time to come back. if you havent received a call yet, maybe it's because your friend hasnt reached you yet. dont panic...

anyway, the date and time to come back:

20/8/2008: 8:30am -12nn

21/8/2008-22/8/2008: 8am - 3pm/330pm


剛剛聽到無線個低B妹話:我覺得菲比斯市拎到金牌都有佢既原因架,因為呢,佢真係超級、超級快過其他人呀~~~

唉...

我想講,花瓶都尚且有樣睇丫,無線班女仔主持慘在連外在美都無... 只係「偽花瓶」或「疑似花瓶」囉... 你話個個都有劉璇咁咁質素都話丫!

我都係轉番英文nicam 好D...

i got whirlpools inside my brain.

i feel very very sleepy and dizzy today...

maybe it's the heat and the humidity.

is there really a place where the weather is always pleasant throughout the year? (plus there's no air pollution nor an exploiting government)
