如金鱼般的日子


这两个星期,胃气高涨、腹部肿胀得像大肚金鱼,晚饭后更是经常性地留不住食物。因为怕麻烦、不愿忌这个避那个,因此能拖多久就拖多久,就是不去给医生看。上个星期五更厉害,因为没时间吐,索性不吃晚餐。

其实这么拖着也还好,既可以省钱又可以减肥。然而,昨天实在是胃痛得不行、连止痛药也不管用了,主日崇拜后才去看了医生。不出所料,果然是肠胃感冒,领了一堆的药,其中有止吐与控制晕眩的。但是,吃了药的我不仅形似金鱼,神情也如金鱼般、终日都处于晕晕乎乎、模模糊糊的状态中。只可惜,上课的时候学生的错误弹奏还是不会听不见。

叫我如何不用死



听完考级的学生弹的《寒鸦戏水》,我只说了一句:
我真的想马上撞墙死掉。

听完比赛的学生弹的《丰收锣鼓》,我无奈地说了:
I just want to hang myself to death.
今天给学生上完十一多个小时课后的我,
现在满脑子就只想安乐死 。

储蓄睡眠



昨晚8点就开始睡了,中间十一点多的时候醒来一次,不到一小时又沉睡了。今早十点才起床。午饭后又小歇了一个多小时。现在又要去努力了,不只是把前一阵子欠的债还清,还要有多余的去应付下星期忙碌的一周。

I Believe


This afternoon, I told the class, “我不相信你们会做得不好(I do not believe that you all would do it not well)”. Some students commented that I should phrase it as, “我相信你们会做得好 (I believe that you all could do well).” I told them the former is suitable for writings with the set requirement of a high minimum number of words, while the later is best for summary writings with a low maximum number.

In this case, however, they should have different implications. Not my gibberish, I hoped, product of my high temperature these few days.

不想念的思念


现在要是有点滴打该多好。
就算是玻璃瓶装、旧得发黄的塑胶管子、超大的针孔,也是一种幸福。

就在一线之间



午饭时电台正好在谈婚姻与外遇。有一位男性听众认为男性天生就需要一夫多妻的制度。就是忍不住,我轻声地嘀咕了一句:“其实,女人也可以一妻多夫。”我家老太太不以为然,说:“那不是和妓女一样!”

当然不同,我说:“妓女是提供服务的,是男人的货品。夫是女人的资产,夫越多口袋就越满。”

Your question is not mine; my problem is not yours. Why?


Nowadays,
students are always very worried about me. They would constantly urge me to find a life partner.

My standard answer: Don’t worry, I could get myself a maid.
They, however, think that a maid is not the perfect solution.

My perfect solution: I could move to an Old Folks Home where there will be many companions.
Unfortunately, they are still unhappy with this.

To satisfy them: You all could visit me with your children to keep me company in the future.

Nowadays,
I always have to worry. Although, students want to participate in performances, graded examinations, and competitions, they are not working towards their goals. In fact, they are drifting away. What could I do?

Nowadays,
we are just not connected properly.

Ridiculous Me


Yesterday, while we are struggling to rectify the off-tuned Ti (7) by increasing the tension of the pressed string to produce a slightly higher pitch, an idea struck me. I, then, told the class that we should organized a field trip to observe the tea plantations in Cameron Highlands .

Why?

This is to remind us that “teas” are grown on “high” lands.

突发奇想


今晚在地铁站外见到一群孩子开心地向一脸幸福的老伯买雪糕。
刹那间,好想放下一切,去卖雪糕。
