Promise kept

After almost 2 years, I finally get to fulfill the promise I made. We returned to Winjallok! This time not as students on placement but as visiting friends. We (Summie, Jesslyn, Tiff, JR, Francine, Me!) made Greg and Fiona dinner and had a good catch up with each other. To be honest, it's good just to see them and the dogs again. Oh, and their new puppy, Bessie (not sure if that's how I spell her name) is so adorable I want to kidnap her home. XD

The walk at night in the cold will always be remembered. That starry sky, that milky way, that total darkness, that cold wind... and the company. =) I would have camped outside and stare at the sky until I fall asleep, if only the temperature wasn't so cold I took 2 of Summie's jacket on top of my own. (Oops!) I would trade a fortune just to see a sky like that again. The road we were on was pitch black but the stars were shining so brightly, just like sunlight reflecting off hundreds and thousands of water droplets after the rain. They glimmer. So beautifully. It's true that stars shine brighter in the dark. Ironically, she who likes stars dislikes the dark.

Even though I don't think any photo can do justice to the beauty of our universe, here is the least I can use to help me remember that magnificent view.

The next morning, Greg took me out on his motorbike to move some sheep. I don't have a motorbike license but I think I will enjoy riding if I ever get a chance to learn it. Well maybe not in the crowded city where cars are everywhere but somewhere out in countryside. Oh! Greg said that I am still the same lovely girl he remembers me to be. It felt good to be remembered and cherished, but at the same time, a little bit awkward to hear someone calls me lovely. I've missed you too. Hahaha...

A journey to remember for a lifetime.
Thanks for having us, Greg and Fiona! =)

For lunch, Fiona made us lamb roast and chocolate pudding! They reminded me of the time when we were there for our placement, it definitely brought back some good memories.

Unfortunately Terry was sick and we didn't get to see him...Hopefully he'll get better...
Greg told me to pay a visit again, to see how great Bessie will grow up to be. And there...
Another promise made. =)

Signing off,
Ka Yan

绝处逢生

出去骑脚踏车,让自己和自己对话,正视一下内心。那天papa问我,其实我到底想要怎样的生活。er... 如果没有jpa合约这回事,我的想法又会是怎样。er...

其实简单形容我这个东西的话,就是懒惰,却又想有所作为。偏偏有所作为的人,却不可以懒惰。反正聊下去也不会有结论,因为简嘉欣本身就是个矛盾的个体。

重点不在这里,重点是当我越骑越慢、越骑越远、头脑越来越多对话的当儿,我转进了这么一条死巷。
然后,笑了。


是在开我玩笑吗,左右都没路,是指我去哪里。
然后,我又笑了。
笑自己有点白痴,有点傻,有点没事老给自己找烦恼。
绝处逢生,是不是给我这种顽固家伙最好的答案。越是无路可走,越是想走下去。
还没到的,想也没用。
看来,懒惰的人终究还是懒惰想太远。

想伟大却懒惰的东西

渐行渐远

有些人,有些事,在不知不觉中,渐行渐远。
好一阵子了,开窍似的,决定不再坚持。
那天写下的心情、傻傻的不敢披露的心情,想在这个一直逃避面对课业和现实的夜晚,还它一个部落格的位子。

1225                                   星期日                                                 天气晴& 
有些话,现在非说不可,不说会开心到爆。 
有些话,现在非记录不可,不记录怕会把那些唯美的细节忘掉。 
今天去大山脚找阿某一起过圣诞。圣诞,也就是耶稣诞生的日子。我不是基督教徒,阿某是。可是那并不是什么问题。陪他一起去他教会的庆祝,竟然给我看到他打瞌睡的样子,头像钓鱼一样,时上时下,我没有叫醒他,只是用眼角小心的瞄了几下。好可爱。 
我喜欢很多今天发生的事。 
我喜欢阿某带我逛他的学校USM,虽然我看了还是不会知道怎么走,可是我看到了他渡过大学生涯的地方,虽然那里不会有我的影子。可是很喜欢他愿意和我分享关于他的生活。 
我喜欢阿某把我带回家,虽然有点尴尬第一次这样见他的家人,可是我还是很开心。我不知道他平时是不是都常带朋友回家,但我希望不是,这样我会觉得我对他有那么一点特别。虽然他的父母都没问我名字,可是Aunty知道我喜欢喝Umbala酸梅,知道我喜欢太平,知道我爸爸开餐厅那么就只能说明,其实阿某是有提到我的。Omona。我好开心啊。 
我喜欢阿某带我参观他家的森林。虽然这举动不怎样,我却觉得很开心,因为感觉他想让我更了解他的世界一点,包括他家的一草一木。 
我喜欢阿某有一次默默地走在马路外边,因为车多。这样的小动作,或许是我多想,或许真的是他的细心,可是我就是很爽。 
我喜欢阿某默默地撑开伞然后走在我旁边为我遮太阳,虽然我很多时候其实都没有遮到。可是这样的举动,虽然有点好笑一个男生撑伞遮太阳,不过那一小段路,我多希望可以没有尽头,就这样一直有点害羞,有点尴尬的一起走,一直走如果我更勇敢一点,更靠近他一点点,会更好哈哈。原来小说里看到的希望路会没有尽头,是真有其事。 
我喜欢看阿某突然笑开了的样子,因为不常见,那种像我去年第一次出现在他Christmas表演时的笑,露出两颗兔牙。 
我喜欢我们因为掉了车钥匙而遇见阿某的朋友,看见真人版的Facebook照片里的人,感觉我更进入阿某的圈子。只是阿某都没有介绍我是谁,如果他能介绍我的名字的话,我会更开心。可是还是庆幸。 
我喜欢我勇敢的送出我用心做的圣诞卡和pasar malam买的椰壳手环。虽然不知道阿某会不会戴,会不会喜欢,可是我用心做的时候,想到是送给阿某的时候,心里就莫名的开心。好希望下次再见到他时,他会戴着那手环。Oops,希望穿的下。哈哈。 
另外,这个说不上喜欢,可是好像不小心把伤风传给了阿某,因为把吃不完的板面给了他吃。Oops。呵呵。 
阿某他很完美吗。没有啊。可是就是连他的迟到,忽冷忽热,统统在见到面时我都会忘掉,剩下心在怦怦跳。我为什么每次和他一起吃东西都很慢,就是因为太紧张。即使喝的是没有味道又难喝的罗汉果,和阿某喝就很开心。哈哈哈。 
最后!我很很很开心我们还会有下一次的见面!因为我勇敢的sms他,
“Next time can we climb hill and eat shaved ice? =” – yan
“Okayy” – 阿某 很快的就回来sms
忍住。我忍住不再回了,可是心里根本就是在乱跳,开心到爆。虽然不知道Next time是几时,可是至少阿某说好。 
好。

-2016-
=))))))))

感谢阿某,让我知道原来小鹿乱跳这回事还会在我这种冷血动物身上发生。
可是现在,高傲的种子决定和那个渐行渐远的圣诞,告别! 
=)

任意门

最近迷上这首歌的歌词,上课头脑不停播放、放学也在哼、发呆背景音乐也是那一句:你问我全世界是哪里最美,答案是【你身边】。
文笔好的人就是不一样,歌词也可以让人莫名的深陷。
如果换成现实生活中真有人这样说,大概毛骨会悚然吧。=]



因为昨晚的梦而今天脑袋有点当机的,
