江湖恩仇一饮而尽

（餐馆介绍）
有机会实在很想到这里点一些吃的喝的。爽。。。

Keira Knightley + 李妍喜

Keira Knightley, one of the very very few Western actresses i like.


李妍喜，成熟高雅打扮，可塑性满分，完全拜到她石榴裙下，做鬼也风流。

Are not they gorgeous? ^_^

空虚

最近都没下笔。。。因为种种原因。

其中主要之一，我感觉自己非常空虚。觉得自己的心灵很脏了，严重污染了。是不太有目标理想的心境。严重失去信心的感觉。剩下的是我的外壳。种种表情，似乎不过是外壳的面具。我怎么了。。。我想要净化自己。想要充实自己。

迷失的感觉，在阳光明媚的蓝天下，依然弥漫。。。

have i wandered off too far? would not you walk me home?

sunshine

那天看了大马拍摄的港产电影《父子》，并没被什么强烈吸引，有一些景色确是有大马乡间色彩，可是里头许多人都没有相对的色彩(尤其是服装打扮），不甚融合。画面有时怪怪的。值得一提那参与演绎的小孩，天生可爱却命运坎坷。

最喜欢的是电影开始时巧妙地用了范晓萱的歌《You are my Sunshine》。简单的曲词，简单轻盈的歌声，描述着自然深刻的爱。

You're My Sunshine
-- Marvis Fan
OC/OA：Jimmie Davis

You are my sunshine my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear how much I love you
Pleaes don’t take my sunshine away

You are my sunshine my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear how much I love you
Pleaes don’t take my sunshine away

又搬家

又搬家了。这次是搬到隔壁房间。是学姐的房。是跟郑秀文名字同音的学姐。用了整天的时间来搬东西兼清理，累得有点虚脱的感觉。搬到大房间，却少了之前那里有阳台的好处。但，是很大的房了。

学姐留下了三个床褥，我自己有三个，结果没有他择的情形下，叠成了三层厚度的双人床。我摆了一个80cm X 180cm 的桌子。房间还有余位。感觉有点奢侈，有点过意不去，毕竟是个学生在租房的。不是我富有，却是许多人临走时留下了许多东西给我。

今天，到了夜晚，收拾了大部分的东西，学姐来到我房前，跟我说她跟朋友吃晚饭后来的。学姐说她那朋友不停问我为何没去（因为前数天，我有去）。学姐说，她那朋友看来很想我。汗。她并不是我喜欢的女生类型。而且，她很恐怖。口一开，就碎碎念，若是可爱就不伤雅趣，可她是只有她讲你听的份。爆汗。她是富婆型。学姐竟笑说，我是奶油小生，是富婆偏爱类型。哎。坏。坏。坏桃花。

我的市场价值很低。泛值。像学姐和朋友说的，我外貌似奶油小生。许多女生可是喜欢很阳光很男人的男生。不过，我从来不觉得自己很不好。不能否认的是，现实是强势的。我不确定我是不是属于那一种的男生。太少女生喜欢我（或那种，如果有的话）了。对我而言，好象不是好事。

现在，坐在这大房里，面对电脑，头脑开始很模糊。是，累的效应发酵了。很难想象，学姐身子小小，怎能睡这大房。跟她走在一起的时候，她身高好象只及我肩膀，秀发却是及腰的。跟她合照时，搭在她肩上，感觉她好小。她睡在这房，感觉好好笑。像公主。

荒

我最近的生活，一个字形容--荒。
不是闹钱荒，是荒废的荒。废人的荒。有一点城春草木深的感觉。

胜不骄
败不馁
这道理，我已掌握不好。

闲不荒
勤不庸
这，是我给自己勉励的话。这里头的分寸，我一点也拿捏不好。

我懒得很荒又很慌了，可是我连一点庸俗的勤也没有。看这香港娱乐《美女厨房》还看得乐开怀。好笑好笑。薛凯琪的表情我最爱。可爱。

M'sian Shopping Culture and Environment

This is the first english post in this blog that i have always been treating it as chinese blog. Anyhow, i decided to type english for this post as chinese could be a bit tougher to elaborate the contents. And, this is a blog of my NewAge, while NewAge is not yet completely defined and so its border is still yet rather vague. So, you wouldnt mind it allows some slippage of contents from any pre-concept, right?

Before this, i should say sorry for inability to put on any relevant photo alongside description for this post. This apparently makes harder for what i intend to write and so maybe i should just post a short one instead of an 'ambitiously' long one.

Couple days before, with my father, i managed to have a walk in the Ikano-Ikea-Cinileisure-Curve in Damansara without idling in the nearby shopping mall One-Utama. I name these 4 complexes together as they are actually interlinked by different means: bridge, terrace, promenade, etc. The shopping area was designed and planned with interesting concepts, that look to be catching up with Singapore or some western countries. Here, beside shopping, concept of idling is quite promoted with shopping-arcade-like design. It has quite some extensions: the street, the walk, the piazza, the terrace, outdoor, indoor, that offer variety of multiple shopping-eating-idling experience.

Here, is quite an ideal place to house the ‘flaneur’ culture of citizens that are lack of comfortable green recreational places. Some feel of promenading can be sensed maybe, with the flow of crowds, the still of goods, and some awareness of weather change. Nevertheless, some other people from rural areas actually may find hard to get used with it, while some even get lost themselves in these complexes. Why? Maybe it just has too many extensions, too much demarcation and zonings for functions accordingly. And so spontaneousity of users’ experiences is limited in a sense that ‘it is better to buy shirts in that block, better to have Eastern food at another wing, Western food on the opposite, etc. This situation also actually ‘sanitizes’ the customer crowds to certain groups at particular space. Therefore, we can see that some fashion shops are not opened yet, simply because the overall concept still hard to sustain the viability of those many suites in proportions to customers and visitors. The dilemma of these complexes planning is the contradiction between the effort of offering multiple experiences and the actual situation that fragmentizes the user group.

On the other hand, Mid Valley shopping mall stands undoubtedly as a successful mall to house all the commodities, specialist services and people. It generates money. Everything housed in this shopping mall, like fashions, cinema, health care, markets, food courts, digital, etc. I can hardly hear people complaining about getting lost in this mall. It has many choices for different classes of people, where a more ‘nation-wide’ welcoming is more possible in some sense. Despite its success on consumption and consumerism, it maybe has less interesting spaces to explore and idle, less offer of ‘wonder and wander’ spirit. Anyway, its ideal location to be reached by different spots in Kuala Lumpur makes it strategically irresistible and maybe ‘irreplaceable’. It is a pure shopping mall, a casing that shelter commodities and consumers, within a block that shield people from weather. Other than storm, sunny day, etc, maybe only earthquake will be sensible when you are inside it.

We have also another famous shopping mall at the bottom of Petronas Twin Towers—Suria KLCC. Apparently, there are more foreigners with higher consumption level. There seems to be a dramatic growth of rich Middle East visitors to go shopping. Suria KLCC is considered a high-end shopping area, where all high class fashion and design could be found. However, I always see its dilemma of identity crisis and uncertainty in getting user (consumer) group or class. It is supposed to be a place for the nation, yet many people of this country seldom go there for shopping because of affordability problem. Rich people (including foreign visitors) are still minority in this country. Or, maybe a display for the minority always appears to be much more dominant than the norm?

More specifically, this post title could be "the shopping culture and environment of KL citizens". But KL is the capital, and more people are Kuala-Lumpurized.

杂碎之闻

对我而言，第一次认识杂碎这词是看到一个朋友拿着一本中国出版有关建筑业的书《杂碎》。

如果杂碎是骂人的词，哪我也不会管太多，就学周董那样乱用词好了。反正酷用就型。

这是所述相关的书---杂碎

这是有关建筑地产方面所用的---杂碎

这是有关饮食业所用的---杂碎

这是关于饮食与生活情节的---杂碎

就像SOHO。有人解读为 Small Office Home Office，有人用在Solar and Heliospheric Observatory。也像OT，上班人说是OverTime，医院人员说是Operation Theatre（手术室）。

小小幸福

好象是一年前，张玉华的歌声唱腔曾经让我错愕惊叹。由于当时无法‘跟进’，忘了当时她的一首歌，听起来实在像孙燕姿唱的，比她其他主打歌更轰动一时。当时，像许多燕姿迷，对张玉华觉得有点气恼。若无聊，大家不妨找一找那首歌。我刚才找了，歌名《free》，那太像了。她当时以新进入乐坛姿态唱出那种非一般偶像的歌，让我惊叹好奇之余又留下了印象。但总不知道她的样子。

最近她出了新专辑《小小幸福》，比较摆脱了燕姿的影子。同名主打歌第一次从电台播听的时候，乍听下感觉有种熟悉感。果然就是她。这首歌《小小幸福》里，她没有高调运用她那足以玩味的唱腔来演绎，只稍微撒娇地，轻松地，简单地，漫烂地唱出了小小幸福的味道。刚听的时候觉得怎么唱功似乎不比以往一鸣惊人了，但听着听着，就觉得她以她这方法唱出了这首歌的味道。所以《小小幸福》听来是欢喜甜蜜的，有点像刚初恋，没有过腻的味道。有些唱功更厉害的女歌手或许会把这首歌唱得‘不太幸福’或‘太过幸福而不小小了’。所以我觉得她拿捏韵味恰到好处了。嗯。。。有点像台湾电影《蓝色大门》里，感觉不重，有点小感动，但那电影多带一点青涩。

好玩

我的“第一次”。呵呵。。
