蔡健雅《Goodbye & Hello》

頭先聽蔡健雅隻新碟, 有首歌一聽就好鍾意, 連續 repeat 幾次, 係第五首"越來越不懂". 呢隻碟我覺得 d 輕快o個 d 歌比較好, d 慢歌反而冇乜好聽. "It's True" 同 "晨間新聞" 都唔錯. 同埋不得不講, 個封面搞乜? 好似甩色咁, 好肉酸. 最近最鍾意o既女仔碟始終都係郭靜o個隻, 好多正歌.

Sicko

暑假上咁多齣戲, 其實我最期待想睇o既係呢齣, Michael Moore 新o既紀錄片. 今次佢個題目係美國o既醫療制度, 佢想講o既係, 美國有好多人冇醫療保險, 而美國人雖然知道呢個事實, 但係就一直都當睇唔見, 而佢今次就將好多個案放上畫面, 要美國人睇見一個冇保險o既阿婆俾醫院送出街, 睇見冇保險o既 911 英雄冇錢睇醫生, 睇見一個細路女因為醫院基於保險條例唔肯醫所以瓜柴, 然後要佢地回答, 佢地係咪可以接受美國係一個咁涼薄o既社會.

除o左冇保險o既人, 佢亦有講到有保險o既人. 講到好多個案, d 有保險o既人俾保險公司玩, 搞到一身蟻. 而呢 d 保險公司因為要增加利潤, 當然會將金錢放o係人身健康之上, 合理之餘亦好唔合理, 好吊詭.

總括o黎講, 我覺得呢齣戲好正, 雖然題目嚴肅, 但係拍出o黎幾搞笑, 有好多笑位, 亦有令人動容o既情節, 由頭到尾都唔覺悶, 拍紀錄片拍到好似 popcorn movie 咁, 算佢好o野. 雖然好多人都鬧佢個 solution 唔得, 但係如果問我, 交勁稅同埋要等, 但係人人有免費醫療, 我會覺得免費醫療比較好. 事關睇完佢齣戲之後, 第日當我可以交少 d 稅, 同埋睇醫生唔使等, 我就會不其然諗到有 d 人俾醫生拒於門外, 話之佢死, 真係會良心不安.

楊太復出

楊麗娟母星光大道杖擊華仔

狂迷楊麗娟母親昨晨到尖沙咀天星碼頭祭祀丈夫，其後楊母再到星光大道，見到劉德華手印時非常激動，以拐杖擊打華仔的名字，又在上面吐口水及焚燒報紙，擾攘近一小時後才離開。事後星光大道管理有限公司營運經理表示，檢查後手印沒損壞，故不會追究。
====================================

精采呀, 呢排香港好熱鬧, 巴士阿叔同楊氏餘孽最近都有所動作, 出返o黎見人. 希望楊麗娟自己都出o黎見下我地 d fans.

黃彼得, 亂咁 up

頭先o係最新o個期"金燈臺"度讀到黃彼得一篇文章, 叫做"神創造人類的原本旨意". 忍唔住要 post 上o黎恥笑一番, 因為實在錯到阿媽都唔認得. 呢篇文章係解希伯來書一 d 經文, 其中有一段:

第 2 章第 7 節：“你叫他比天使微小一點。”這裏“天使”希臘文是 Elohim“神”，這裏說人比神微小，因為神是創造者，人是受造者；但神卻把祂自己的榮耀尊貴賜給人類。中國人認為“人為萬物之靈”，因為體會到人的尊嚴，人的榮耀。人有靈，是最寶貴的事；靈是超物質的，是永恆的，靈就是人的生命，不是物質能限制的，也是神給人類最寶貴的禮物。

佢o既解經真係錯得離譜. 希伯來書的確係希臘文寫成, 但係o係希伯來書 2:7, o個度天使係 angelos, 唔係 elohim 喎. 大佬, elohim 根本就唔係希臘文, 係希伯來文o黎o架嘛, 黃彼得係度 up 乜呀? o係希伯來文舊約聖經o既詩篇 8:6, o個度天使係 elohim, 但係希伯來書 2:7 quote o既係七十士譯本 (希臘文舊約聖經), 唔係希伯來文聖經喎, elohim 關乜事呀? 仲要話 elohim 係希臘文, 想混沌視聽, 愚弄 d 冇原文基礎o既讀者. 而家佢根本就夾硬將 angelos 解成神, 唔識希臘文o既人都知唔 work 啦.

唉, 簡直係亂o黎.

好驚呀? 咁大反應o既?

China's Olympic Opportunity

By MARTIN LEE

October 17, 2007; Page A18

When President George W. Bush accepted President Hu Jintao's invitation to attend the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Mr. Bush's press secretary said that he was going to the Games as "a sports fan, not to make any political statement." I too am a great sports fan -- especially of the Soccer World Cup -- but I would encourage President Bush to take a broader vision of the possibilities for the Beijing Games. He should use the next 10 months to press for a significant improvement of basic human rights in my country, including press, assembly and religious freedoms.

This should be possible, since Chinese leaders have promised to make these improvements anyway. In their pledges to the International Olympic Committee while bidding for the Games and since, China's leaders at all levels repeatedly assured the world that they would use the Games to go beyond improving the country's physical infrastructure.

"By applying for the Olympics, we want to promote not just the city's development, but the development of society, including democracy and human rights," one of China's key Olympic figures, Deputy Mayor Liu Jingmin, told the Washington Post in 2001. Then, Mr. Liu said, "If people have a target like the Olympics to strive for, it will help us establish a more just and harmonious society, a more democratic society, and help integrate China into the world."

I couldn't agree more. But instead of the hoped-for reforms, the Chinese government appears to be backsliding on its promises, including in Hong Kong where we have near total political paralysis, not the promised road to full democracy. That is no reason to give up on the prospects for reform in China. But it is reason to step up the direct engagement on these pressing issues.

In accepting the invitation to attend China's Games, President Bush said this would be "a moment where China's leaders can use the opportunity to show confidence by demonstrating a commitment to greater openness and tolerance." Instead of a "moment" of change, China needs structural and long-term reforms: placing the Communist Party under the rule of law, unshackling the media and Internet, allowing religious adherents to freely practice their faiths, ceasing harassment of civil-society groups that work on AIDS and the environment, and addressing modest calls for accountability in the political system. Mr. Bush and other world leaders planning to attend the Olympics should not wait for the opening ceremony, but must start now with sustained efforts to achieve this agenda.

One reason for optimism about the possibilities for progress in China is recent Olympic history. When South Korea bid for the 1988 Games, the country was a military dictatorship. Due in good part to the prospects for embarrassment and international engagement, the Olympics helped kick off an overdue peaceful political transformation in South Korea just six months before the launch of the Seoul Games. Since then, South Korea has endured as one of Asia's most stable and vital democracies. The parallels between South Korea and China are not exact, but the lesson is that the Olympics certainly present an opening to raise these issues in the context of the Chinese government's own promises.

In the U.S. and elsewhere, there are campaigns to boycott the Beijing Games over the Chinese government's trade with and support for regimes in Sudan and Burma. As a Chinese person, I would encourage backers of these efforts to consider the positive effects Olympic exposure could still have in China, including scrutiny by the world's journalists. This is certainly the time for Chinese leaders to step up and constructively use their clout in Asia and Africa. In so doing, Beijing should open a new chapter of responsible foreign policy and convince the world it is not oblivious to these issues.

Chinese people around the world are proud that China will host the Games. China has the world's fastest growing economy, and may indeed put on history's most impressive Olympic Games next August. But how does it profit our nation if it wins gold medals but suffers from the continued absence of democracy, human rights and the rule of law?

It is my hope that the Games could have a catalytic effect on the domestic and foreign policies of the Chinese government, and that the Chinese people will remember the Games long after they are held -- not merely for medals won, but also because they were a turning point for human rights and the rule of law in China. That would be something worth cheering.

Mr. Lee is a democratically elected legislator and the founding chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party.

=======================================

李柱銘o係 Wall Street Journal 出o左篇文, 其中有一句向布殊呼籲, "should use the next 10 months to press for a significant improvement of basic human rights in my country, including press, assembly and religious freedoms." 李柱銘對美國總統o既呼籲, 其實就等於巴士阿叔叫特首唔好拆碼頭, 又或者任何一個維園阿伯叫特首快 d 拆碼頭一樣, 人地采你都有味, 人地要做乜唔會俾你影響到, 即是話李柱銘其實只係講o左句廢話. 如果有棵樹o係一個冇人o既森林入面爆炸, 算唔算有聲呢? 如果李柱銘句廢話美國總統完全聽唔見, 當佢冇到, 咁佢又算唔算有講過o野呢?

但係唔知點解, 掘起中o既大國公民咁大反應, 實行小事化大, 連續兩日上晒頭條, 齊心以行動證明, 講o野唔o岩聽o既中國人會被"公幹". 人地要干預又如何? 好驚美國呀? 咁大反應o既? d 條件反射好似驚俾阿媽鬧咁. 最頂癮o既係, 咁多人鬧李柱銘, 個個都只係鬧佢做漢奸, 叫外國人干預中國內政, 而冇人鬧佢講大話, 詆毀中國人權狀況, 根本上就係曲線默認中國o係傳媒, 集會, 宗教自由上o既基本人權真係有問題. 香港仔學o野啦, 要好似下面呢條友咁先叫真正愛國o架嘛, 擦阿爺鞋都要醒目先得o架.

天劍 Heavenly Sword

都好耐冇玩一個 game 玩到爆機 lu. 尋晚就玩 Heavenly Sword 玩到爆機. 當然, 一來個 game 真係幾短, 不過亦因為我好鍾意呢隻 game, 所以先會有興趣玩到尾. 我一向對動作 game 都興趣不大, 所以當有隻動作 game 吸引到我, 就要o係呢度表揚一番.

覺得 Heavenly Sword 好玩係因為佢有好多特別o既地方. 首先, d 唔識玩o既人會 mash buttons, 胡亂出招, 但係咁玩係唔掂o既, 因為好多時敵人太多, 會成日俾人打中. 又未必會死, 不過樣衰. 正確, 而有型o既玩法係要小心好多, 睇清楚擋到人地攻擊o個一刻用 counter attack, 而呢 d 反擊o既 animation 好有型, 每當成功使出, 都會有種莫名o既滿足感. 另外 aerial combo 亦非常精采. 你可以打人上半空, 再跳上去打佢, 但係o係半空會變成慢鏡, 會有足夠時間出 d 好型o既招數, 好過癮.

另外, 亦唔係只有劍斗, 亦有好多地方要用箭射人. 有趣o既係支箭射出後, 會變成慢鏡頭, 跟住支箭飛, 你可以改變支箭o既方向, 當睇住支箭射入敵人隻眼度, 發出慘叫, o個種快感真係好頂癮. 畫面亦靚, 人物設計亦出色, 尤其係主角 Nariko 同 Kai, 短短幾粒鐘就變成好鍾意佢地. d 環境亦好正, 有 d 地方甚至令我諗起 ICO, 嘩, 如果第日出隻好似 ICO 咁o既 game, 而有 Heavenly Sword 咁質數o既畫面, 咁就真係正. 音樂同配音亦好出色. 成隻 game 都造得好好, style 一流, 令識玩o既玩家覺得自己打得有型, 滿足感十足. 唯一唔好係個 game 短, 大概7-8 個鐘咁上下. 不過係個 game 實在好玩, 先會令人覺得短. 其實 7-8 對動作 game 唔算好短, Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 3 都唔係長得幾多. 希望將來會再有同類型, 唔使 mash buttons o既動作 game.

ps, 唔記得報告, 我已經收到消息, 我 d comprehensive exams 已經及格晒. woo, 以後唔使再考o個 d 差唔多成十個鐘頭o既痴線考試.

伊藤由奈: Urban Mermaid

新 single, 有兩首新歌, Urban Mermaid 同埋 Colorful, 兩首都係快歌. 唔知點解, 伊藤由奈連出幾隻 single 都係出快歌, 冇佢之前o個幾隻成名慢歌如 Precious 同 Endless Story 咁好聽. 不過佢又靚女又唱得, 真係殺晒, 可望千秋萬載, 一統江湖. 而講返呢隻 single, 我覺得只係一般, 冇驚喜, 冇特別. 不過個封面影得幾靚.

ps, 下個星期好多o野做. 有兩個 guest lectures, 星期四考 buddhism, 星期五交獎學金個申請表, 而家考慮緊星期一好唔好去睇牙醫, 好想去搞掂埋佢唔使煩, 但係又好似好多o野做...

[新聞報導] 傳道人淫辱小教友

====================================
年幼遭性侵 愛上斷背
傳道人淫辱小教友
26/10/2007

神職人員再爆出性侵犯男童醜聞。基督教宣道會秀茂坪堂一名前傳道人，於過去二十年先後非禮三名男童和少年，最早一次侵犯一名年僅十三歲男教友並替對方口 交，及至他成為傳道人又重蹈覆轍，在寓所非禮另外兩名少年。涉案前傳道人被捕後透露自己年幼時亦曾遭性侵犯，繼而對男性產生興趣。他昨日在區域法院承認五 項非禮罪，還柙至今日判刑。

法官昨形容本案案情嚴重，案中涉及三名小教友，可見絕非單一事件，加上被告身為傳道人，在案中違反了對各事主的誠信，故拒絕應辯方要求考慮判處社會服務令。法官表明本案須重判具阻嚇性刑期，以阻嚇意圖干犯類似罪行的人士。

20年間三名少男受害
現年四十一歲的男被告馮俊業，為基督教宣道會秀茂坪堂前傳道人，惟自案件被揭後，他已於○五年十月辭職，現於貿易公司任職管理顧問。馮雖已離開教會，但昨日仍獲十多名教友到庭支持，表現一直平靜從容的他，當得悉須還柙後，即時失望得低下頭來。

被告被控共五項非禮罪名，涉及三名受害小臈友，控方分別以A、B及C來稱呼三名男事主。控罪指被告於一九八六至一九八八年間，在香港三度非禮年僅十三歲的男事主A；另被告於二○○五年間，在沙田寓所內先後非禮十七歲男事主B及十六歲男事主C，被告昨日承認控罪。

控方案情指，被告於十三歲時加入教會，並積極參與跟教會有聯繫的香港基督少年軍；他○二年修畢神學學位後，同年七月加入教會並擔任傳道人一職。直 至○五年九月，教會鄭姓牧師發現被告常鬱鬱不歡，於同月十三日經輔導及查問下，被告承認曾撫摸一名男教友下體，致令對方自此離開教會，被告於翌月辭職。

鄭於○六年十月六日與兩名男教友B和C傾談，期間二人透露於○五年間，先後獲被告邀請到其沙田寓所打遊戲機，B指被告在客廳乘他打機時，按著他肩 膀將他拉後及撫摸他的大腿，B即時伸腳推開被告，不料當晚二人同床共枕，B睡醒時發現被告捉緊其身體，撫他腹部，一邊隔褲摸他下體，B為免繼續被侵犯，即 時轉身擋開，被告見狀停手。

誘返家打機同床共枕
教友C亦透露，當時十六歲的他在○五年八月獲邀到被告寓所打機，期間被告曾撫他背部數分鐘，事後二人同睡一床，期間被告撫摸C的腹部及伸手入其褲襠圖撫其下體，當被告觸及C的陰毛時，C即轉身以背擋開被告，被告見狀擁著C入睡。

鄭於同月十一日報警，警方翌日到被告的單位將其拘捕，警誡下被告承認曾五度非禮三名事主。警方事後聯絡A，對方透露於十一歲時結識被告，兩年後當二人同床時，被告兩度伸手入其褲襠撫其下體，更曾替他口交，但因事件太尷尬，A未有報警，但自此便無返教會。

案件編號：DCCC 571/07
====================================

睇怕不論明光社發起幾多無聊投訴, ban 幾多書籍、節目, 對社會風氣o既影響力都唔及呢 d 教會案件o既十萬分之一.

mihimaLIVE

星期三係考德文o既大日子, 如果今次個 challenge test 過關, 咁下個 sem 就唔使浪費時間讀德文. 所以呢兩日都勁讀德文, 文法都冇乜o野好溫, 又唔知要翻譯乜o野, 所以背生字都幫唔到幾多. 所以唯一有用就係多 d 練習, 翻譯 d 同平時返學讀書有關o既 journal articles, 呢兩日都係做 d 咁o野.

尋晚臨睏, 就開o左隻到手一排都係未得閒睇o既 dvd 睇睇. 係 mihimaru GT 舊年o既演唱會, 唱十七首歌, 個場地唔大, 好似香港商台搞o個 d 拉闊咁上下. 氣氛一流, 因為佢地 d 歌全部都係 party 歌, 本來就適合聽現場, 再加上兩個主音都表現唔錯, 冇蝦碌, 冇 rap 到甩晒嘴. 特別鍾意把女聲, rap 又得唱又得, 而且本身音色特別, 一聽就知係佢.

我好鍾意呢隻碟, 睇完心情都好少少, 有減壓作用. 其中一隻我鍾意o既歌, 隻 MV 亦拍得精采:

Shibajun Tour 2007

上個星期訂o個隻柴田淳 dvd 早兩日到o左, yesasia.com 真係幾快手. 個 concert 唱o左大概 15-18 首歌咁上下, 冇細心數到. 個場地幾靚, 個台好細, 但係好有演奏會 feel, 幾夾柴田淳個風格. 柴田淳唱歌當然係好聽, 不過有 d 我好想聽o既歌佢都冇唱到, 不過又難怪, 事關佢都算出道多年, 唱唔晒咁多歌. 比較得意係佢唱o個幾首 Tennis 王子樣o既主題曲, 節奏比較快, 同佢其他歌唔同, 佢好似想跟隻歌有少少動作咁, 但係又唔識 un, 好搞笑.

柴姊氣質真係一流, d 衫加埋佢個樣, 好似成個古代人咁, 影相仲做 v 字手勢...

Goodbye My Love

Miku, Fatal Frame, 再見 lar.

官方正式發表, 我最鍾意玩o既其中一隻 game: Fatal Frame, 將會o係 wii 度出第四集. 呢個系列好正, 角色得人鍾意, 氣氛一流, 真係恐怖到無論, 我鍾意呢個系列多過其他人擁戴o既 Resident Evil 同 Silent Hill. 不過既然而家你要玩o野, 想搬, 咁我地亦唯有和平分手. 雖然我係如此深愛著 Miku, 但係我唔會為佢買部 wii 返o黎. 因為我o係 gamecube 上面已經中過招, d 打鼓 game、party game, 只係開頭會覺得過癮, 不過好快就會玩厭, 非我族類.

長瀬実夕: Key

當年 ZONE o個個細路仔 miyu 最近出o左隻個人 single, 有兩首歌, Key 係快歌, Thanks to You 係中板慢歌. 我自己就比較鍾意 Thanks to You. 水準一般啦, 佢把聲一向唔錯, 兩首歌又唔係難聽, 不過亦並非有乜特別, 同 ZONE o個 d 正歌水準相差甚遠. 所以要憑呢兩首歌上返以前 ZONE 個位應該係冇可能. 同埋佢而家大個o左個樣怪怪地咁, 睇唔慣, 又唔係靚, 但係又冇以前細個咁得意.

陳乙東

============================================
陳乙東有意參加立法會補選 (星島) 10月 15日 星期一 11:52AM

有「巴士阿叔」稱號的男子陳乙東表示，計劃參加立法會港島區補選。他早上去到選舉事務處領取報名表及提名表格，他表示有信心在截止提名前，爭取到足夠提名，參加補選。陳乙東表示，參選是要繼承癌症病逝的立法會議員馬力的遺志，如果他當選，會積極爭取2012年普選行政長官，以及成立扶貧議會，改善扶貧政策。

============================================

嘩, 精彩喎, 希望阿叔真係參選, 如果我o係香港, 我會提名佢o架.

Transformers

好多人都話 Transformers 好睇, o係 imdb 上面亦有高分. 不過睇完, 都覺得不外如是 je. 娛樂性係好, 打到甩脾, 不過亦唔係人地講到咁經典. 尤其係對男女主角, 好憎佢地. 個女o既就懶 hot, 不過我就覺得好樣衰. 個男o既, 我一向都唔鍾意佢, 上次睇佢做 Disturbia 睇到想中途熄機咁滯.

不過 d 自細睇 Transformers 大o既西人可能會覺得 d 變形金剛好型, 童年幻想成真, 就好似 d 香港仔特別鍾意玩 d 高達 game, 係一種懷舊 feel. 我睇都覺幾型o既, 不過好似 d 奸狗金剛似乎型過 d 忠直金剛喎, 又識變飛機又識變坦克, 唔似 d 正義朋友咁只係變貨車跑車.

千嬅唱舊歌

呢隻碟, 一睇個封面, 影得咁樣衰, 碟名又怪又求其, 再加上係舊公司出o既, 第一印象就係唔慌有乜好o野, 睇怕都係舊公司見楊千嬅開演唱會, 又出返 d 以前錄落 d 舊貨, 賺返筆, 同發死人財差唔多.

點知聽落又唔差喎. 當然唔係隻隻翻唱o既都好聽, 有好幾首都係個編曲做得唔好, 改到比之前仲差, 令人有搵o野o黎搞o既感覺. 要特別一提係掩眼法改o左之前藍鞋子 d 歌詞, 但係作詞唔知係邊個o黎, 寫得仲差過 stephy, 佢都算好o野. 不過亦有翻唱得好聽o既, 我最鍾意"情歌", 呢首我覺得好聽過晒佢o係新公司o個 d 新歌. 鬼咩, o係新公司由黎明幫佢選歌, 實死啦, 睇下黎明 d 女朋友就知呢條友品味好有問題.

Hostel 2

我鍾意睇驚嚇殺人片, 但係我唔鍾意 Hostel 第一集, 血腥得o黎故事太弱, 而且其實冇乜驚嚇氣氛, d 主角又唔係可愛, 死唔死都冇乜所謂, 角色只係"人肉", 而唔係人. 第二集都唔差得好多, 血腥程度輕o左少少, 但係個故事依然係唔吸引, 亦冇乜好驚, 睇o個時唔會覺得好緊張. 認真麻麻.

個結局係幾有趣, 因為齣電影開頭就話俾觀眾知, 走得甩都冇用, 最後都要死, 個女主角點做先可以活命會係個有趣o既問題. 不過, 觀眾 (例如我) 其實未必會關心個女主角o既生死, 呢個懸疑點變成落空.

免費書: Life After Death

今日收到本免費 hardcover 厚書, 係 Alan Segal o個本 Life After Death: A History Of The Afterlife In Western Religion. 因為今個 sem 我要 TA o個科就係用呢一本書. 正呀, 雖然好多人都話呢本書寫得麻麻, 因為佢個 scope 太廣, 乜都講, 但係太多資料就會亂. 不過免費又無所謂喎, 得閒無事我都會睇下, Alan Segal 都算係聖經研究圈子名人, o吾係二打六.

過三關

嘩, 頭先o係 msn 度見到阿 Reed, 佢同我講, 話已經改o左我個 mishnaic hebrew 個 test:

you did very well indeed! be assured that you passed with flying colours. there were a couple places where you could have translated more smoothly, but only one real mistake.

呼, 搞掂一樣麻煩o野. 而家仲等緊新約 comp. 個結果, 希望 ok 啦. 仲有, 聽日應該會派返 buddhism 個 test. 其實個 test 我係試o既, 但係上個星期做o個時唔知道最後o個頁後面仲有幾題 essay, 所以搞到唔夠時間好好作答, 最後幾題 essay 得十五分鐘求其寫 d o野. 聽日睇下點囉.

之後十月廿四仲要兩粒鐘德文. 唉, 今年真係好鬼多o野做, 個個禮拜都有o野考, 唔止過三關, 三十關都有, 好辛苦.

好多o野做

開學以來已經做o左好多o野, 考完第二輪 comps. 啦, 考o左 mishnaic hebrew 啦, 完成o左 OGS 個 application 啦, 考o左 buddhism 第一個 test, 但係跟住o黎仲大鑊, 仲有好多o野要做.

- 十月中咁上下要考德文. 暑假讀o個 d 已經唔記得晒啦, 要溫返.
- 十月尾阿 Reed 會返o黎幾日, 我地會傾下我個論文點搞.
- 十月尾要 lecture 兩堂, 一堂講死海古卷, 一堂講以斯拉四書
- 十月尾要交個 thesis statement.
- 十一月頭要交 SSHRC 個 application.
- 十一月頭考 buddhism 第二個 test.
- 十一月中 buddhism paper due.
- 十二月考 buddhism final.
- 十二月交下年 CSBS conference 個 proposal.
- 十二月交份寫好o既 paper 俾下年o個個 Enoch Seminar.
- 十二月交寫好o個 d dictionary article, 我打算寫 aqedah, 500 字, 超難寫.
- 再加上要改 midterm, 改 final...

暖暖

今日痞子蔡 post o左暖暖第十六個 chapter, 亦係故事結尾. 我覺得今次痞子重拾返佢好耐之前o既心傷 feel, 因為夜玫瑰, 亦恕與珂雪, 孔雀森林都唔會令人覺得心 up, 同佢之前o個 d 雨衣, 洛神紅茶好唔同. 我覺得呢個係痞子蔡o既專長, 唔知點解, 佢o既故事就係會令人睇到心酸, 覺得好難過, 但係作為讀者又覺得好滿足. 今次呢本新書我有呢個 feel, 尤其係最後o個幾個 chapters. 我鍾意今次暖暖多過亦恕與珂雪同埋孔雀森林.

過癮o既係, o係痞子個 blog 度睇到好多人o既留言, 話點解個結局冇尾. 其實好明顯有尾啦, 係 d 人唔能夠接受呢個令人心碎o既結局, 所以詐睇唔到 je. 佢地應該接受現實啦, 最後o個個 paragraph 講到明:

我和暖暖都是平凡人，有單純的喜怒哀樂，也知道幸福必須追求與掌握。
或許有少許的勇氣去面對困境，但並沒有過人的勇氣去突破或扭轉困境。
時代的洪流會將我沖到屬於我的角落，暖暖應該也是。
我們會遙望，卻沒有游向彼此的力氣，只能慢慢漂流，直到看不見彼此。

PSP + Valkyrie Profile

早兩日出去買o左部最近出o既新版 psp, 銀色, 連埋隻 game 同埋幾集我唔會睇o既卡通片, 同埋一張 1gb o既記憶咭. 我決定想買係因為睇到消息, psp 將會有 d rpg 我都幾想玩返, 包括 FF Tactics, Star Ocean 1+2, 等. 部機本身個顏色冇張相咁靚, 銀得o黎摸上手唔係金屬o既感覺, 不過又唔怪得佢, 因為如果真係金屬, 咁就一定重好多. 個畫面好正, d graphics 同一般 ps2 games 有得比. 可惜係我唔識點樣o係部 psp 度用 psone emulator. 遲下睇下有冇辦法可以玩到 ps1 d game, 不過聽講好複雜.

我買o既第一集 game 係 psone o既經典 rpg Valkyrie Profile. 玩o左幾粒鐘, 都幾o岩玩. 不過最唔好係太少 save point, 周不時要不停直玩超過半個鐘先去到下一個 save point, 好唔適合帶出街玩. 唔明點解佢唔俾任何地方都可以 save.

買書睇

上個星期o係 amazon 訂o左兩本書, 都係我會鍾意睇o既. 一本係 James Kugel 出o既超厚(但係唔貴!)新書, 叫做 How to Read the Bible. 我睇o左少少, 個開頭真係寫得好有趣, 講 BDB 其中一個 editor 點樣由一個教會屬靈人到最後被教會踢走, 帶起人對探討 scholarship 同 church 之間o既關係. 我只係睇o左好少, 所以未知後面會點, 但係 James Kugel 一向寫o野都正. 同埋佢寫得好易明, 任何人都會o岩睇.

另一本係 Craig Evans o個本新版 Non-canonical Writings, 今次個書名改o左少少, Ancient Texts for New Testament Studies, 不過基本係舊書翻新, 不過厚o左好多, 有幾個 chapter (尤其係死海古卷) 加長o左好多. 買 Kugel o個本係因為我想睇佢寫乜; 買 Evans o個本係因為佢係一本好用o既工具書. 兩本都係好o野, hardcover 厚書o黎講唔算貴.
