爱与不爱都在于细节

Cui Cheng showed me this. thought it was rather nice... The title is not the title of this essay but it was a title of an essay i once read in du zhe. the main theme is around the same so yeah... anyway, happy reading.

那个时候,女孩和男孩正处在恋爱的季节。每次打电话,两个人总要缠缠绵绵许久。末了,总是女孩在一句极为不舍的“再见”中先收了线,男孩再慢慢感受空气中剩余的温馨,还有那份难舍难分的淡淡情愁……

后来,两人分了手。女孩很快就有了新男友,帅气,豪爽。女孩感到很满足,也很得意。后来,她渐渐感到,他们之间好像缺些什么,这份不安一直让她有种淡淡的失落。是什么呢?她不明白。只是两人通话结束时,女孩总感觉自己的“再见”才说了一半,那边“叭”的一声挂线。每当那时,她总感到刺耳的声音在空气中凝结成冰,划过自己的耳膜。她仿佛感到,新男友像一只断线的风筝,自己那无力的手总也牵不稳那根无望的线。

终于有一天,女孩和他大吵了一架。男友很不耐烦的转身走了。女孩没有哭,似有一种解脱的感觉。

一天, 女孩又想起最初的男孩,心中涌起一份感动:那位听完她“再见“的傻男孩。
这种 感动让她慢慢拿起电话。

男孩的声音依旧质朴,波澜不惊。女孩竟无语凝噎,慌忙中说了“再见”……这回女孩没有收线,一股莫名的情绪让她静静聆听电话那端的沉寂。

不知过了多久,男孩的声音传了过来,你为什么不挂电话?女孩的嗓音涩涩的,为什么要我先挂呢?习惯了。男孩平静的说,我喜欢你先挂电话,这样我才放心。可是后挂线的人总是有些遗憾和失落的。女孩的声音有些颤抖。

所以我宁愿把这份失落留给自己,只要你开心就好。女孩终于抑制不住哭了,滚烫的泪水浸湿了脑海中有关爱的记忆。她终于明白,没有耐心听完她最后一句话的人,不是她一生的守望者。原来爱情有时候就这么简单,一个守候,便能说明一切。

school

school today was ok.

got back history cct. was quite happy to get 12/15. yay. (:
got back math cct. 6/12. YES. haha. i thought i was going to fail. just passed in the end. lots of careless but Mr. Kwa did say that I'm still amongst the top because of the high scores of my previous tests. haha. so i'm still rather happy. at least i have yet to fail my first ever math test...

with apr coming up soon, let's conclude on how im doing for each subject...

math: very good. except for the last TA. but still 4.0
phy: ok. not many assignments till now but i know what's happening
chem: a few assignments till now. all rather good. concepts ok but some still dont understand. needs revision.
bio: grades are average. a little below 4.0 but still acceptable. needs MUGGING.
history: grades are ok for now. content still ok. needs mugging as well.
SS: grades are average as well. work hard for coming project.
Chinese: grades as usual. aim long-term.
English: grades as usual. errr. nothing much to say.

i guess im doing all right. just need to improve on my bio and study some chem and history and i guess im fine.

oh. today, Mr. Kwa who always seems so serious, cracked a joke. HAHA!

"there is a house of functions. One day this mad mathematician..." - Mr. Kwa
"that's Ivan" - Huiyao
"yeah ah" - Mr. Kwa

laughter...

"ok anyway, this mad mathematician went into this house of functions and screamed at them, "I WANT TO INTEGRATE AND DIFFERENTIATE YOU". These functions were all very scared. cuz like sinA get differentiated become cosA, and it loses it's identity. But then there's this function at a corner who was eating and didn't seem to care. The mad mathematician went over and threatened, "I'LL INTEGRATE AND DIFFERENTIATE YOU", but the function wasn't scared. cuz it wouldn't lose it's identity even when differentiated or integrated..."

lol. ok. doesn't seem funny here. but the way he said it and given his usual serious attitude, it was funny. haha.

erm. ok luh that's all. love the pics i took on SNYO concert day...

BYE!

答案是一千

星期三,晚上九点钟,又是“老爸教数学”的时间了。男孩右手拿着一本数学课本,左手拿着两张音乐会票,从房间走了出来。男孩的手和脚都在发抖,心更是怦怦地跳个不停。。。

“快点过来,老爸没时间等你啊!”男孩的父亲一边说着,一边快速地在电脑上打字,连看男孩一脸都没有。男孩走了过去,翻开数学课本,开始阅读第一题。

题目是:已知四方形的一边是500米,一边是2米。四方形有x平方米。x=?

一分钟过去了,男孩还未开始答题,好像在思考着什么。他的左手还是紧握着那两张票。

“怎么啦?第一题都不会做?让我看看。”老爸说完,拿起数学课本,把题目阅读一遍。“不会吧!这题也太简单了。500乘于2就行啦!”可是,男孩好像没听见,继续望着那道数学题,一声不出。一阵子后,他终于问道,“那答案是什么?”

“哎哟,你真是的。难怪数学老师说你数学差,连这么简单的题目都不会。我真是不知如何是好啊。。。这题,答案是一千。”老爸回答道。男孩呆呆地望着父亲,从铅笔盒拿出一支铅笔在作业上写了一千。之后,他又呆呆地望着窗外的天空,左手还是紧握着那两张票。

老爸见状,便问道:“你怎么了?”男孩并没回答父亲的问题,而是深呼吸了一下,闭上眼睛,把左手拿着的两张音乐会票摆在桌上,反问道:“你可以来看我的演出吗?”

老爸听见了,叹了一口气,说道:“老爸很忙,要赚钱养家。我每小时可以赚上500块钱,去看你这两小时的演出,一千块钱就如此飞走了。算了吧!你还小,不会懂得这些道理的,还是专心做你的数学吧!来,第一题其实很简单,500乘于2就可以了,答案是一千。”

男孩望着数学题,心想:是的,一千就是答案,一千就是正解。

。。。

放学了,男孩来到食堂。男孩前几天一直都在观察鸡贩摊位摊主的一举一动。摊主每天都会在两点左右把外面送来的鸡肉拿到摊子,一离开就是五分钟。

的确,今天也不例外。摊主如常在两点走出摊子。男孩趁机溜进摊子,打开摊子收钱的盒子,拿了2050块钱的钞票,然后溜了出来。但是,这一幕却被一位老师看到了。老师抓住男孩,将他拉到校长室。

。。。

男孩回到家。只见父亲已经站在门口,手中拿着一把藤条。。。

“你给我过来!你。。。你。。。你数学超烂我还可以忍耐,我可以教你,可以给你答案,但是你现在却。。。却去偷钱!我每天都给你好吃的,好喝的,每天辛辛苦苦上班赚钱,你还不满意!”老爸怒发冲冠,责备男孩。

男孩低下头,眼泪夺眶而出。他回答道:“对不起,我做错了。我。。。我只想赚一千块钱,买你两个小时的时间去看我的演出。。。”

房间再也听不到说话的声音,听到的只有哭泣声。。。

一千不是答案,那答案又是什么呢?
