2025/01/04: 擋路

昨晚出席小學春節晚會

其他人各走各的

我獨自站在禮堂後方的入口看演出

除了自己家小朋友的表演

其他用心的表演也很值得一看

*

我通常都是全部看完

并給與鼓掌

這和到音樂祭看其他樂團的演出

是同一道理啦

*

然後小朋友的教練

帶著幾個女同學走過

以爲隨便打個招呼就好了

*

他突然問我:

怎麽站在這裡不進去?

(後臺表演者準備的課室)

*

我回答:

在這裡不好嗎?

(可以看表演)

*

然後很莫名其妙的事發生了

他對著女同學說:

難道她在這裡找對象?

*

Like WTF??

這是爲人師表應該對學生説的嗎?

這是和學生家長尬聊的方式嗎?

也太失禮了吧

*

後來女同學指著教練說:

這裡有一位

*

教練同時從包裡拿出一個

寫著什麽什麽「單的扇子

問我需不需要

*

我做了一個邪笑的表情說:

高攀不起啦

*

然後他們一行人走了

真的很莫名其妙

*

作爲這閒學校的校友

作爲這個社區的居民

安靜地站著看表演

擋到誰的路了嗎?

*

總覺得小朋友在這樣的教練底下

學習到的處事待人應該蠻有限的

希望他找到新興趣  退社吧

其實那也是全家人默默希望看到的

*

春節快樂!

遠離 fool 能量

2025/01/03: November

Kicked start November with a 

concert staycation in town 

for Fujii Kaze concert 

*

as i didn’t expect the travel peak 

in conjunction with Diwali 

was forced to extend the stay 

for another night very last minute 

which was not quite an issue 

as i didn’t have any pending deadline 

*

that was tentatively the last 

concert staycation in town 

which will be much missed 

(but turned out it wasn’t)

*

it was a good way to start November 

as November is usually the month 

i need extra motivation to work hard 

in spite of the months-long fatigue 

due to the extra budget for year-end shopping 

*

but it feels good to buy a little something 

for the loved and close ones 

before the year ends 

*

in fact i started buying Christmas gifts in October 

for low in stock items 

that’s the fun of doing it 

buying something that you think will put a smile

on the face of the person who is about to receive it

*

when the going gets tough 

the tough goes shopping 

*
