展翅,在夕阳的轮廓里

幻想,是何等伟大的事业
将一代人卷入那空灵之中
在苏醒的时候,才发觉,
原来他们已被时间抛在了后头,成为了历史
黑格尔说得对:
密涅瓦的猫头鹰只在黄昏起飞
可叹的是,
世人只知以自己的生理年龄来判断个人思想的时辰……

3 books I bought today

Yeah! I finally bought the 3 books I've been wanting to purchase in a long while!

The first is a collection of Mother Teresa's letters with commentaries. Her letter touched me, and I once wrote a post on it.


The next 2 books are by 方文山, in which he analyzed the imageries used in his lyrics, and his rhetorics employed in some of his songs. More than a yr back, I analyzed 《千里之外》using 《诗经》,just out of fun. These 2 books are really reader-friendly, and I thought it would be interesting & useful for teaching in future. Moreover it's not expensive, just S$14 per book.


I need to start saving up! PSC is not giving me a lot of money, especially when they include my accommodation costs into the maintenance allowance. In fact, I think I'm getting less than the scholars in mainland China, which is JUST NOT FAIR! I shall fight for my rights soon.

But first, just when is the money going to be credited into my HK bank account? If I had not helped my prof in his research and earned some extra cash, I would be eating air and sleeping on the streets now...
