新年在旅途

January 1, 2008 by rachel0423

除夕. 在温哥华.

丝毫没有过节的气氛, 连MSN上也是人影寥落.

前两天和妈妈的朋友一起去吃寿司, 一样的生鱼片,手卷. 他和他都不在身边. 想快点回到滑铁卢, 再和他去吃生鱼, 给他斟茶, 骗他喝酒. 可是我舍不得妈妈, 一个人在潮湿阴霾的冬日温哥华. 她说她喜欢, 我分不清真假.

不愿再去想和他能走多久了. 过去太高的期待太多的要求, 像是给感情戴上了分秒倒数的计时牌. 这一次从零开始, 要尽量把以前犯过的错刷清, 不任性, 不吵闹, 不想太多, 不要太多, 不问太多. 要独立, 不吝惜对他好, 也不去计较得失.最后即使结果不如人意, 也不要痴缠, 痛快地退回我们以前的关系.

多伦多过新年了, 温哥华还要等三小时. 看着MSN上字里行间若有似无的温柔, 心里也有莫名的暖流.

无语

September 29, 2007 by rachel0423

这星期非常混乱,由于周末小病一场效率底下,这周一直在疯狂赶进度,即便如此也还离计划很远。

累在脑力,更在体力。每天从一睁眼风风火火到半夜,我真的渐渐忘记了原来我的性别是女这个事实。

懒得说话,贴照片敷衍吧

别了WHITBY

August 23, 2007 by rachel0423

刚才签过了最后一张出勤表,这四个月的工作生活基本上结束了。
整理柜子,抽屉;墙上,桌上的摆设都收进大包;电脑里我的个人资料全部删除;电话里的留言全部清除;把我在这里留下的痕迹抹去。
这个座位,这幢楼,那个我常去的健身房,我常光顾的商场,连同WHITBY这座小城,马上就要成为我生命里的过去时。
这次的经验离完美很远,但是庆幸学到了很多,更庆幸我还有机会去接近完美。
下周一马上会有人接替我的工作,而我也会大步流星地迈向新的学期,接受新一轮的挑战。
当离合成为生活里不可避免的经常性事件,伤感便被降到最低,因为我已没有力气,没有时间。
