等车时看见两个同学对着双手玩了半天，原来她们玩的是这个：

The 9 Times Quickie

1. Hold your hands in front of you with your fingers spread out.
2. For 9 X 3 bend your third finger down. (9 X 4 would be the fourth finger etc.)
3. You have 2 fingers in front of the bent finger and 7 after the bent finger
4. Thus the answer must be 27
5. This technique works for the 9 times tables up to 10.

坐在DATA公交车里，看见车壁上宣传画写着：December 1, 1955. It all started on a bus. Rosa Parks.
我望望周围，车厢里很满，没有一个白人。 

突然很傻地发现我想收集美国这10年出的50州纪念硬币...

我已经看见了10种：Vermont, New Hampshire, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, Louisiana, North Dakota. 希望各位朋友（有兴趣的话）留意一下平时身边的quarters  Thanks!

出门发现路边停了辆自行车横杠上贴着两行大无畏的标语：

WELL-BEHAVED WOMEN

RARELY MAKE HISTORY

 

后来才知道这在美国是家常便饭啦... 

看见一本pocket books系列的书，正想这么厚的书谁的口袋才放得进，再一看logo原来是这么回事--

下午我坐在教室外寂静的大厅里，一个女人走来看见了我，兴奋地对手机里说：I found another human being here！

后来另一位昨晚和我一起看球的同学说：You are an official American now, you have seen a baseball game.  

胡畔的几首歌我偶然听见，自己觉得很好。

麦子、面朝大海春暖花开、守望。

首先我向我的qq联系人道歉。

 

病毒通过qq向我的所有联系人发送了这样的消息:

sealion  (2006-11-14 17:49:06) 在吗？   我要下了，我给你点了你最喜欢的歌，用手机打1259○427OO3就可以了，后面是我的留言，我等待你的回音.  

 

后来一位亲爱的朋友这样回复我:

N A  (2006-11-14 19:59:00) 这首歌我从来没有听过啊，你怎么知道是我最喜欢的歌啊?不过很好听

就是拉  
N A  (2006-11-14 19:59:03) 谢谢啊 

  

我要向这纯洁善良的女孩致敬。明辨世事是智慧的，可在这里我看见了也许比智慧更动人的东西。
玩弄信任者得到了什么？或是在这险恶的世上继续培育着猜疑，或是——用那雪上刺目的踏迹，引出我一滴温热的泪。

我想起街对面的花店。但我没有勇气为自己买一束花，亦没有勇气买一束花送给别人。

垂死时蓦然回首，必觉得人生是空虚。
然而人生的意义真全在这一回首么？

人说死亡是睡眠。
那人生是什么？
Insomnia

今天突然看见我的项链上丢了好几颗小石子。一想到它我就寒冷，心痛。而从前我不会有这种感觉的。

 

若别人问起，我要说：是燕子把它们衔去的…

 

 

 

 

小小的鱼在小小的瓶里绕着圈追逐。

如果我的生命只是凝视这游戏的两秒钟，那么我是幸福的！

如果我的生命是对它们无限的凝视，那么我也是幸福的...

我醒来，把手放在耳边，秒针走得好快啊

我不信。捏着脉搏，它们是一样的节奏, di, da, di, da…

橙黄的，模糊的灯光，给我一种历史感

 

恐怖而坦然

 

希望自己不是人，可以舒服地看书...
