| 昨天休息了一整天。證件末能辦到,卻買了很多東東。 
堆在家中末看的書實在太多,看來我應該住手了哈哈。兩個星期後我就可以全速開動啦 ! ... 迷上董橋的文字已經有好一段日子,而買他的書卻只是數月前的事。怎樣說呢...他就是有本事把自已的深湛閱歷,用精煉簡潔的文字呈現在讀者眼前。文章如閒話家常,絲毫沒有造作的味道。 近年他寫很多關於搜獵英文舊書的文章,其中,他的「絕色」更是一絕。從限印本、簽名本、袖珍本,一路談到集藏到初版絕版收藏版,看來這些已成他的 eternal infatuation 了。 牛津近年替他出版的書,裝裱都精緻得很,實在叫人愛不措手。好像「記憶的腳註」(絨毛封面),今朝春日好」(綠底燙了金邊) 、「絕色」(灰藍色四角燙金圖案),美極了。最新的「青玉案」,墨緣封面除了燙金外,還加插了朱紅的葉子。以上所提及的幾本書,當然我通通都收下了啦! ...
在這段考試期間,可算是多災多難。總算是挨過去了,一切只好聽天由命罷。 世事的確變幻無常,要好好珍惜眼前人。只因經此一別,往後未必再能相見。

| Watched Persepolis tonight. To me, It is like an autobiography of a young Iranian girl. It does not preach or about to teach us recent history. It is a personal account, a subjective, a child's-eye view of a shifting society, later a young adult's introspection into the |

| Emotionally attached.
How lovely, this silent night, to meet those once familiar faces; to say hello and bade adieu to them. Tresure these very last moments before looking forward to next chapter of life. Wish you all the best in such a hell-bent AL exam.
To be continued...
