Some words from a boss in NUS

十六年前我在北美读博士的时候, 我的老婆生孩子我就没有回去看望她,尽管相距只有几十英里.为什么?因为我知道我的事业更重要. 科学更重要!你回不回去对你老婆生不生孩子没有任何影响 . 如果她一定坚持要你回去,我建议你和她离婚.你年纪也不小了,老婆没了还可以再找, 你的学位没了可就没的救了.

Some words from BBS

忘记一个人要多久?有的人说,需要一辈子.我想,那是因为他仍然没有忘记.我总是那么相信时间,是的,时间.三年做不到,五年;七年做不到,十年.可能临死依然不会忘记,那么,象我曾答应你的,我会永远把你放心底,不忘记你.只是,再想起你的时候,不会再痛心,不会再流泪.  
  我这个本来自认为很理智的人,承认自己根本无法控制感情.从八年前认识你的瞬间,从
那时候就告诉自己不要喜欢你,要忘记你的我,到今天依然为你哭泣.心痛,无法呼吸.抬起头,睁大眼睛,哽住呼吸.不是吗,你说在你心里你会记我一辈子,那就够了是不是?那时候你温柔地问我:“相信我吗?“我信,所以我和你一起骗我自己.相信你是爱我的,相信你是想我的,相信即使你飘忽地来又忽然地走,不是因为寂寞而是因为你心里真的有我;相信你即使没有音信,仍然是有不得已的理由,你终究还是挂念我的.所以我落寞,我思念,但我依然等待.在你出现的时候,我又总那么傻傻地拂去所有的孤楚,微笑地对着你说一些开心的事情.反反复复,我对自己说,我习惯了.我习惯了你给的伤害,一个人调节好,然后象一个不设防的城堡,一株没有刺的植物,等着你下次的伤害.是幸福太清楚,刹那的光芒与满足足够愈合所有平时的凄凉和痛苦?所以我一直在你身边,等着你的伤害?无数次想删掉QQ里你的头像,却一想到从此看不到你就仿佛看到自己流血的心.可是,她一直在流啊.那么,删掉与否又有什么区别.在这样一个风如强盗般飞旋的日子,把你拉入黑名单,再永久删除.把很久前你发的甜言蜜语而我一直保存的短信,删掉.把手机里你的所有联系方式删掉.然后上街,狠狠地吃了一顿,拉上朋友在KALA厅里疯狂地喊上一下午.精疲力竭.可是一回
头,走进自己的房间,依然泪如雨下.那一次你说:“我爱你.你爱我吗?“我不敢相信.我也真的没考虑过这个问题.我只知道一切,对你的一切我都身不由己根本无力抗拒.爱是什么?如果爱是一看到你就欢喜,看不到你就一直失落;如果爱是看到你落寞就想抚平你眉间的忧郁,看到你开心便由衷地欢喜;如果爱是很多年你一直停留在我心里,怎么都不舍得忘记;如果爱,是愿意为你做很多事,虽然自己得不到你,也要你得到你爱的人;如果爱...那么,是的,是的,我爱你.
  三年前,你说你喜欢我.问,你呢?我当时只是低头,任你抱入怀里.那等待了三年的喜欢你的心,无比满足,充满刺痛的甜蜜.三年后,你说爱我。我又怎么能够再贪心?是我太自私吗?总不愿意说出自己有多喜欢你,有多爱你.可能,我太会保护自己.可明知道你最爱的不是我,我为什么继续自己的折磨.虽然删掉了所有的记录.怎么删掉脑里的印迹?也许,拥有过,就该知足了吧.不要再见,我深爱的人.我不想跟你说再见,几乎没有说过.此时此刻,满心痛楚,满脸泪痕.我依然幻想将来某一天能够遇到你.
  无论如何,我想,我依然象以前,微笑着面对你,会回答你的问好说:“我很幸福,我很好.“如果,如果这一生只能和你这么相遇却永远无法生活在一起;那么我不会再乞盼,心碎心动痛苦甜蜜的所有过往;我不会再到有你的世界里,寻求幸福圆满的痕迹.
  
天空里只有风吹过的痕迹,谁都不曾看往日我对你的迷恋.我已经爱过了,幸福过了,也伤
的透彻了.是梦总会醒,没有不散的宴席.

Tooth ache

God bless !

爱我你怕了吗

止住
眼泪
退到悬崖
晒干爱情的伤疤
勇敢的代价
是自己先放下

一无情什么都变假
渴望
死心
再痛一下
碰碰久违的挣扎
幸福的代价
也许只能刹那
你还敢不敢要它
伤已密密麻麻
只剩生命可践踏
爱若能无牵无挂
天有什么办法
敢爱敢恨敢失去
我不要天涯
只求眼泪痛快的落下
爱我你怕了吗
眼泪你忘了吗
心在等雨在下
热泪已到脸颊
爱我你怕了吗
心莫非死了吗
再一步
也不过是悬崖

选择

北纬一度站
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
一个男人的品位在于选择妻子,选择了什么样的妻子就等于选择了什么样的人生。俗话说,男
怕入错行,女怕嫁错郎,男人何尝不是,写《菜根谭》的洪应明就说过“悍妻诟谇,真不若
耳聋也!” 浓妖不及淡久,婚姻也是这样。大文豪莎士比亚一生写下了众多精彩的戏剧,
但是他的婚姻观却没有任何浪漫色彩。因为他明悉婚姻道路的艰难,更了解生活会耗损爱情。

  人活这一辈子,究竟有什么是我们必须要的?真正需要的就是良好的心态和闲适的心情。只有家庭和睦,心态健康的人,才具备闲适的条件。比如娶一个好女人,就能赋予一个男人闲适的心情——
  1.一个女人最重要的品质应该是善良,而且百善孝为先。天下不知道有多少苦命的男人在受着自己的媳妇和自己亲妈之间的夹板气?如果我是一个男人,要是将要成为我媳妇的女孩敢问我“我和你妈掉河里,你先救谁?” 我一准把她Pass掉,这根本就不是人话!
  2.贤惠,这是亘古不变的女性美德。
  3.知书达礼,这是新时代对妇女与时俱进的要求。一个女人的气质和教养是丰富内心的流露,也是与别人真正拉开距离的所在。
  4.有思想、有品位。有思想使得她不屑于插足别人之间的闲话,她从来都是个“绝缘体”。有品位,使得她能匠心独运地表达自己的风格。我不能容忍自己的老婆看见什么都走不动道,不是我穷,不能惯她这毛病!
  5.懂事。对于男人最重要的是尊严,她可以在家里抨击我,但不能在公众场合讽刺、嘲笑我。一个不懂维护丈夫的尊严的女人,不要也罢。
  6.充分信任,相对自由。喜新厌旧其实是人的本能,谁也不能保证一辈子只对一个人有好感。奉劝天下所有将要结婚的女人用心学习《医学心理学》,充分理解自己的丈夫喜欢在画报、网页上凝眸美女的嗜好,不要因为这些下意识的行为而吹毛求疵。否则就是将婚姻推向死亡。他想独自呆一会儿,不要碎嘴地问什么究竟,送上一杯茶,轻轻把门关上就好了。
  7.有一份稳定的收入。不依附于男人生存女人才能做到独立,自尊。
  8.没有过多的物质欲望。这一点非常重要!自古成由俭败由奢。何况安于现状和乐观的天性使她能够将青春延续。过分的虚荣往往使非“财大气粗”的男人产生精神紧张,甚至为此不堪重负。我的媳妇应该宝马汽车坐得,自行车也能骑得;五星级酒店住得,野营的帐篷也不嫌弃,吃得苦中苦,方为人上人。
  9.拒绝灯红酒绿,不对异性过分热情。她有着良好的生活习惯,抽烟、饮酒、通宵达旦的宴饮狂欢都不会发生在她身上,她不会到酒吧、夜总会这样的地方消磨时间。她知道自己的价值不是取悦异性,所以不会主动和别的男的搭讪,曲高和寡的才是阳春白雪。
  10.天真有一点童趣。一个男人若是真的喜欢一个女人,就应该最大程度地呵护她的纯真。未失童趣的女子,能让漫长枯燥的四目相对其乐无穷。
  11.喜欢读书和音乐。喜欢读书不是看什么花花绿绿的时尚杂志、喜欢音乐也不是什么听过就忘的流行小曲。经典的书籍和音乐能让岁月与生活的琐碎无法在她的心灵上烙下痕迹。
  12.工作能力强,有一技之长。工作中的女人显然没有太多时间疑神疑鬼。有一技之长会使她自得其乐,很好地控制情绪。
  13.当然,长得绝对不能丑,也别太靓,应该是那种越看越顺眼的。
  14.还有一点很重要,婚姻生活是一个有颜色、有生息、有动静的世界,很难想象一个不具备浪漫、不具备情趣的女人是个好妻子。
  以上14条标准,应该齐了。拥有这样的女子,纵使太阳和星月都冷了,群山草木都衰尽
了,婚姻的光芒还能在记忆的最初,在任何可见和不可知的角落,温暖的燃烧着……

Words to myself.

Some things you must forget, itis fate.

Some people you must forget, it is life.

However, to forget does not mean you have to force yourself.
Because by doing so, you will remeber them forever.
Time and distance will cure all the wounds.


Some things you must remeber, it is god's idea.

Some people you must remeber, it is from your heart.

However, to remeber does not mean you have to thinking of them all the time.
A single word, at the right time, will do. When you are lost, depressed, they
will automatically come into you mind.

It has been two years !

It has been two years since I came to Singapore in 8th, June, 2002.
Looking backing, I have lost a lot and gain a lot during the last two years.

THE DAY I LEFT SHENZHEN

It is a sunny and happy day. I started from Nanshan District to Baoan District, where my parents and relatives were living. As some of you may know, I have very big family. My dady has eight sisters and brothers. For each of them, they have their children, that is my siblings. After I got my uncle's house, there are already many peoples there, some people I knew and some I don't. Most of them seems to be very happy, at least it seems to be. It is already 12pm, and we have to leave for Guangzhou Airport at 2pm. We had our lunch. To be frank, at there are too many peoples, I didn't feeling any thing at that time. It was noisy. I just remember that I don't like the food at that time. But after I came to Singapore, I really thinking of such food often.

Finnaly, we start to drive to Guangzhou. It took us more than two hours. Since that is a big car, there are totally 9 persons in the car (My father, my mother, my uncle, my aunt, two of my brothers, sue and her mother, me, and the driver). It was a little crowded in the car. Since we just finished our lunch, we are all sleepy. Most of them felt asleep. But I am totally awake, thinking of something. Actually I am a little worried. Worried about the new life in Singapore, a totally new place.

All the things in the airport I can not remeber clearly, the only part I remeber is the part I want to forget. So just leave it and forget it. I remeber that day that is a match between China and another country in the worldcup. It was expected to start at 7pm, which is the time when the plane is expected to take off. But the flight was delayed. Moreover, I met three other student heading for singapore in the flight. They are my friends here now in Singapore. The flight arrived singapore at 11:40pm. It was dark, I am a little depressed since singapore is not as good as I expected. My old friends came and took me the Nanyang Technological University. There, I made a phone call to my family and then had a lonely night. I kept thinking about the people and things in China. After that, I started my life in Singapore.


HAPPY TIME

Actually, after I resign the job in China Greatwall Corporation, I have been staying in home, wondering for over a month. After that, my parents came to Shenzhen. The kind of feeling is very complicated. I took them to the Window of the World. We had a happy day, in the late afternoon it started to rain and we came back. It was the best time I remeber for ever that I spend with my parents. It was at that time, I realized the feeling between parents and kidds.

孤单北半球

--- 欧得洋---
用我的晚安陪你吃早餐
记得把想念存进扑满
我望着满天星在闪
听牛郎对织女说要勇敢
别怕我们在地球的两端
看我的问候骑着魔毯
飞用光速飞到你面前
要你能看到十字星有北极星作伴
少了我的手臂当枕头你习不习惯
你的望远望不到我北半球的孤单
太平洋的潮水跟着地球来回旋转
我会耐心地等随时欢迎你靠岸
少了我的怀抱当暖炉你习不习惯
e给你照片看不到我北半球的孤单
世界再大两颗真心就能互相取暖
想念不会偷懒我的梦通通给你保管
