一觉醒来发现两个未接电话是流氓打来的,又收到她的短信,她说很担心我,怕我一个人死在外面了。

那种熟悉的口吻让我感到很温暖,果然是了解我的死党啊,其实这段时间都没跟她联系,更不用说向她提发生过的事了,而且她和我之间相隔十万八千里,但她居然能觉察到我的异常,真的很难以置信,难道这就是人们常说的心电感应?

很感动,人生得一知己就已经死而无憾了,可我居然有两个,上天真的待我不薄,如果有一天上天让我为她们而死,我想我也一定是含笑无悔的。

真的,离开保护网走入社会,愈加感到家人和朋友的可贵,这次的事本来我一百个不情愿告诉母亲,因为我很愧疚,而她哪怕一丝一毫的责怪都是我现在承受不起的,但我又不能不告诉她,我没办法隐瞒自己做错的事,我的心不允许我这样做,做错了事就要承认,惩罚是理所应当应该承受的。但她不仅没责怪我,反而安慰我,我大大地松了口气,要不然我真不知道该么原谅自己。

还好这个世界上有这些真心爱我,包容我,支持我的家人和朋友,要不然我真不知道自己该相信什么,感谢上天赐予我的这些无价珍宝,我会更加珍惜他们,事实上他们一直就是我活着的信仰。

ps:母亲开始还以为我是出现了感情问题,其实这点她大可以放心,因为这个世界上我最不相信的就是这种镜花水月的东西,如果非要说爱的话,那我爱的就是静静和流氓,我希望一生一世都和她们在一起,大概这就是友情的爱情吧。

走进社会才发现自己原来是个过时的old school。就像我答应了卖狗的人会买他的狗就一定要买,尽管回家拿钱的时候知道他给我的价钱比市场行情贵了一半。我不明白为什么每个人都说我傻,难道仅仅因为是口头协议就可以作废?已经说好了的事,答应了别人的事怎么能出尔反尔,信口变挂呢?那做人的良心何在?诚信何在?

“诚信?这个利益驱动的社会谁还跟你讲这些虚的东西?”他们都觉得好笑,觉得我太幼稚。

当时我并没有多想,我也从来都不认为自己有多正直-我有反英雄主义情节,但我觉得做人至少应该有个最基本的底限吧,总不能对不起自己的良心吧,那晚上睡得着觉吗?就像我欠人钱的时候会整天惦着,不赶紧还了一天到晚心里都堵得慌,难受,难道欠债还钱不是天经地义的事吗?

可是这个社会不久就扎扎实实地教训了我一顿,给我上了惨痛的一课,让我明白了自己有多自以为是,有多天真,有多幼稚,自己的价值取向与这个社会有多么地格格不入,原来人真的只有经历过社会风雨的洗礼才能长大,原来之前我所看到的世界不过是自己在象牙塔中的想象,一点都不真实。

一夜之间,我感觉自己的整个世界观都被颠覆了,这个认知解体和重新架构的过程很痛苦,因为它代表着你对自己之前所做一切的彻底否定,可是逆水行舟,不进则退,适者生存的自然法则对谁都不会例外。

但是信仰呢?今后我又该以什么作为自己人生的信念呢?喔,这个世界已经早就不存在这种虚无缥缈的东西了,因为这是个物质的世界。我想自己确实过时了。

Predicting the death of a patient, even an elderly, demented one, is an inexact science, even for a doctor with decades of medical experience.

But a cat in a Providence, R.I., nursing home, an animal shelter refugee named Oscar, seems to have a sixth sense about when residents in the home's advanced dementia unit are about to pass away. And his actions can sometimes
help alert the staff to notify family members in time for them to get to the nursing home to tell their loved ones goodbye.

Three animal behavior experts say the explanation about Oscar sensing a smell associated with dying is a plausible one.

"I suspect he is smelling some chemical released just before dying," says Margie Scherk, DVM, president of the American Association of Feline Practitioners, an organization devoted to improving the health and well-being of cats, and a veterinarian in Vancouver, British Columbia. "Cats can smell a lot of things we can't," she says. "And cats can certainly detect
illness."

"Cats have a superb sense of smell," adds Jill Goldman, PhD, a certified applied animal behaviorist in Laguna Beach, Calif. In Oscar's case, she says, keeping a dying resident company may also be learned behavior. "There has been ample opportunity for him to make an association between 'that' smell [and death]," she says.

While the sense of smell may be one explanation, there could be another, says Daniel Estep, PhD, a certified applied animal behaviorist in Littleton, Colo. "One of the things that happen with people who are dying is that they are not moving around much. Maybe the cat is picking up on the fact that the person on the bed is very quiet. It may not be smell or sounds, but just the lack of movement."

100. Apostle of Hustle - Sleepwalking Ballad
Another BSS-affiliated pleasure. The build-up of this piece is intensely wonderful.

099. Goddamn Electric Bill - Looking Up at Down
Flamenco-inspired guitars slowly dissolve into dissonant, reverb-rich chords, and the beauty is laid beneath like a red carpet for you to rejoice and dance upon.

098. Larsen - C
Ahh, welcome to my dark side. This song commands such a huge, dark, deep, yet satisfying, presence. Disturbingly hypnotic, you'll completely lose yourself if you allow the song to attach itself to you. Guitar, bass, accordian, xylophone, violin, drums, keyboards, and murmurs, each slowly layered upon the next into one giant snowball of destruction. If you've ever played Katamari Damacy, you'll get a nice visual of how this thing builds. Gorgeous.

097. pg.lost - Yes I Am
This is the shit. Translucent, shimmering guitars swamp you in an orgy of pedal effects, the rug being swept from underneath your feet at 3:48 with a veritable crescendo for the ages. Welcome to the best of what's around.

096. Matthew Good - While We Were Hunting Rabbits
Because I'm not big on lyrics, I'm also not bent over on vocals much, but some artists have some amazing chords that I can't help but fall in love with. Matthew Good is one of those rare people who can carry a song alone on his vocals. What helps is a very melodic, very catchy beat to spar along with his voice. By all means, this is a very weird song, with a cheering crowd as background noise during the slower parts and a two-minute, classical denouement. But it's all somehow pulled off in a way that'll keep you playing this song over and over again. Vive le Toronto!

095. Stars - What the Snowman Learned About Love
After the band introduces itself, we get a lush waterfall of sound, and finally it lulls into a dreamy, somber, hypnotic melody that'll melt your heart like a snowman making s'mores 'round a campfire (hey, I like playing with the titles and making analogies, so sue me). And just when you think you've fallen under a spell, the percussion goes off at 4:10 and elevates your high a few notches. Vive la Montreal!

094. Zookeeper - Two-Part Invention
Now that The Smashing Pumpkins are getting back together, and barring a Godspeed You! Black Emperor reunion, the official best defunct band in my eyes will always be The Gloria Record. Therefore, you can bet any follow-up projects by any of its members will be vigorously tracked down by yours truly. That being said, Chris Simpson, former vocalist for both TGR and Mineral, has the most amazing ability to weave his voice around instrumentation like a vine wrapping its way up a tree. And like that tree, you'll feel cocooned by the warmth and comfort of his unique vocal tendencies. Now comes his latest project, Zookeeper, which is a stripped-down version of his high guitar, high synth ways of yore, yet retains that focus on surreal melodies. This is a folkier release that will enchant you in ways you can't imagine.

093. The Church - Telepath
One of my top songs of last year, these fossil Aussies really know how to play from the top shelf. It almost feels like this song is shrouded in a blanket of space. The aural blast at the 3:30 mark is only accented by the dueling guitars, making for quite the sonic wetdream.

092. Sunny Day Real Estate - Faces In Disguise
Sitars alive and kicking, this is a crafty song of massive proportions.

091. Yndi Halda - We Flood Empty Lakes
Realistically, I could have chosen any song off this EP, as all three are absolutely beautiful. This one begins with swelling violins, expands like a blooming, triumphant Redwood, and culminates into a lush onslaught of unrestrained force. If you didn't take the hint earlier, get your hands on the full album now.

090. Airiel - Cinnamon
Shoegaze, perfected. Beginning at 2:36, and again at 4:33...

摇滚乐在你的嘴里吃起来是什么味道呢?在找一首歌的时候发现了这个有意思的日志,日志主人还真是个既有创意又会享受生活的家伙,一边听音乐还能一边找出与它“风味”一致的美食,并且还附上了配方和制作方法,有意思。Black Rebel motorcycle club,yo la tengo,Asobi Seksu ,Broken Social Scene,你觉得他们的音乐会是哪种食物和饮料的滋味呢?

I sneaked into the night at 3:00.it's raining outside and I was shivering all over with cold.I buried him hastily beneath the sunflowers without daring to look at his stiff body and then I left...

The day is cold.
The day is cold and dark and dreary.

And it rains.
And the wind is never weary.

Ivy still clings to the wall.
At every gust the dead leaves fall...

It's 12:30,the last drop of tear is running down his left cheek,his eyes still wide open,but he can't see me crying any more.

I'm still holding him in my arms,his body's as cold as my heart.We're both colder than the ice.I kissed him on the forehead,I tried to lift his limp neck,but it's just  no use...

有点把钱赚够了就继续旅行的冲动,预定的下一站是新疆(死党流氓的老巢),然后是北京(这倒不是我对北京有多大的感情,4年呆在天津,10次飞过北京,却一点也没有想去看看的冲动,奇怪==!主要是现在很多朋友都在北京工作,还有apple的老窝也安在北京了-所以我去北京就像回家一样自在,准备在那里养养膘,哈哈)

嗯,9月份应该就可以启程了,可是现在就很想飞到她们身边去。。。
