    fuck the truth

    “Hey, do you know why she deleted me from MSN?”

    “I don’t know. But how do you know that”

    “I have this program that allows me to see who has deleted or blocked me”

    “That’s creepy…but what kinda program is that? I wanna try it later too”

    In the end, I got the program but somehow couldn’t open it. It’s probably better this way, I think. Why would I wanna know who doesn’t like me and has been ignoring me. That’s gotta hurt! In fact why would anyone wanna know it?

    Surprisingly, people do. Even if they live in a life that appear to be perfect, they try their best to discover the “truth” behind it, risking the chance that the “truth” might not be as good and it could ruin the beautiful bubble you have. Are we stupid? Why are we so fascinated about the “truth” and disregard the sweet dream we are living now? After all, we as human beings, only have a few decades life. Beyond that, it’s a different story. It’s not really a long time, if you think about it. During this time, should we live in the real pain or fake happiness? Provided here “happiness” means physical and spiritual pleasure, why not! As journalists, one of most important our professional norms is to strike for the truth. But is it really that important? Especially when most of the time, the truth is the most devastating. I believe telling someone who is fully devoted in the dream that everything is just virtual and will vanish shortly as he wakes up is a very cruel thing, which makes no difference as to tell the patient that he’s got cancer and can only live 6 weeks. It takes all the joy away, immediately, which is why I think a lot of the times it’s not that people don’t know the truth, it’s that they don’t wanna know the truth, they’d rather continue their fancy little dream. If so, who are we to force them to face the truth? I personally don’t mind being lied to. Because if someone tells a lie, there is always a reason behind it. Either it would be good to me, or him. What’s the problem, as long as I never find out the fact that it is actually a lie. So if you lie to me, you better lie good.

    Only stupid people would come around and let the truth get on their nerve.

    the big M

    the good thing about working in maccas is that, there is always a high volume of customers, so you get to meet all kinds of people, couples, families, drunk, psychos, you name it and i've seen them. it could be a pain in the ass to deal with their unreasonable demands, but other times it was good fun to have a laugh at them too, cause they are such idiots haha.

    like tonight, i think it was because that they just raised the price of a lot of the product, i had an increasing number of queries about the bill. one of them just couldn't take the fact that yesterday he could spend less than $10 and have a luxury meal, today it just cost extra $2. after checking the order with me twice, the poor guys was simply devastated by the reality and had to ask to me hold his food for him to get back to his car and take that 2 extra dollars. the guy waiting behind him, had a nice smile and the clumsy way he acted when i handed over him the ice-cream was kinda cute. so i kinda had my eyes on him, until...i found that he didn't clean his own table after dining, then i say, forget it.

    then you have the couples coming in at 9pm for dinner or a snack. the way they talk to each other just seems so casual yet sweet. it makes me smile and wonder what it's like to have a company, speaking of which i have still completely no progress. simply because up until now, my social life basically maintained inactive. it is indeed annoying, but another thing is that school seems especially intensive this semester, whether or not as a result of me coming back a week later. i can't believe we are in 5th week already...geee stuffed by school and work i find myself hardly have any time or energy to pursue anything else. but still, i'm needing some "action" ;)

    another ordinary day

    today, I went to another open recruitment after university. the place is right opposite to coogee beach. great location, hopefully I'll get something out of it. wish me luck

    even if not, things are looking up, my friend. guess I've found myself back and got rid of the uncomfortable adjusting phase.

    can't wait for summer to start. I have so many plans!

    新的一章

    有段时间没有更新了吧,期间看到linxi同学和潘婷的不间断更新总有一种羡慕的感觉,觉得自己怎么就没有这个持之以恒的能力呢。hummm于是决定重新开张,开始新的一页。

    说起来,这个时机倒是挺好的,一穷二白,以后的任何事都算是值得记录的一笔吧。

    好了,从今天说起。终于完成了记录阿根廷之行点点滴滴的一个小短片。转眼半年了,算是对这次旅行的一次追忆吧,从侧面其实也说明了我对当前在悉尼的生活的不满。第一时间上传到youtube上,接着便招呼能想到的所有有关的朋友去捧场,呵呵,大家的赞扬还真是让我飘起来了呢。话说制作的过程,我就像又重新经历了一遍那些精彩刺激的冒险,于是便更加坚定了我毕业后转战南美的决心。有人有兴趣观摩的话,链接在这里http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBFB2xh8sr8

    新买的手机有拍照功能,不用特地背个照相机像个backpacker一样煞有介事的拍摄中人早已系以为然的景物,这大大提高了我用图片记录生活的兴趣(主要是我拿个手机,他也不知道我是在发短信还是在照相,恩,很好,很有隐蔽性)。

    DSC00027 离家不远的火车站--说实话他总是让我想起小学的课文《小站》

    DSC00037 等车的时候闲着无聊照得公园,远处是玩橄榄球的小孩(天知道他们为什么会喜欢玩这么奇怪的球类运动)

    去超市买东西,明明没有多少,不知道为什么还是玩了很多钱,马的!

    晚上回来,终于给某个同学打了招呼,让他做我的job referee。说起来真是太丢脸了,找了这么多年的工作还是没找到,每次都还要麻烦人家~~~~真是难为情啊!所以老天,就保佑我找到一份称心的工作吧,不要再在麦当劳了!

    刚才称体重,56.3 yeah~~~~~减肥略有小成,不过我还没吃晚饭 :P

    好了现在去吃,灯下还要写法语 merde!
