declaration of dependence

taking a step out of the usual foot steps, i realised that there are really a lot of information all around me. everything seems interesting enough for me to think about investing a little bit of time exploring it, yet there are only 16 working hours every day.

the campus papers, the international tribunals, CNA news, fiction books, a new interesting film, an old interesting film, that website that teaches Korean language, the newly discovered Scandinavian indie bands, the website that collects some awe-inspiring product designs, the one-day lomography shoot that i’ve always wanted to embark on…

Bookmarks one too many, and I don’t know when I’ll be able to get back onto them.

Oh, december it seems? When dreaded exams are done, the streets are decorative and all is rosy.

Oh, but there’s still FYP. fuck.

We should really start thinking about how life starts and how it ends, and think about how to fill the spaces in between with a multitude of emotions that is gratifying enough not to be forgottten. – November 6, 2009

The best and only way to commemorate lost time is to smile and let the thought sink deep. – November 5, 2009

Keeping Watch

曾经有一个小小的社会新闻,四个男孩子相偕去戏水,结果大浪一来,三个人死掉了,只剩下一个活着游回来。报纸上谈论著死掉的那三个孩子,而我急切地找活着的那一个:怎么没有他的名字呢?怎么没有人告诉我只剩下他活下来之后、他过得怎么样呢?

大家都替死的人感到难过,我却一直在想,活下来的那一个,一下子失去了三个好朋友,他会不会孤单?
  
所以我有了《沉睡的青春》
  
沉睡,说的不是青春的消逝,而是生命的孤寂,可是却用一种带着诗意的甜美浪漫被呈现出来,原因是我并不想再增加生命的悲伤,相反地,我想疗伤,静静地、缓缓地、帮忙那些有遗憾的生命找到存在的力量。

导演 郑芬芬

出现在电影的话:

 有些人对时间的流逝 感到遗憾
 有些人则深陷其中 永远也逃不出来

 存在也许无法被证明
 灵魂的重量却可以被创造
