再談政治-母親篇


Mom:   阿女,其實你有無辦法?都係諗下走啦
我:       吓?去得邊?你仲喺度喎
Mom:   啫,我都六十幾,好話唔好聽真係果頭近。。。 你唔同呀,你有專長嘛,留喺度無用,走得,就走啦
我:       吓?去得邊? 去到邊度都係要做二等公民喎。。。講真,我無細路都好D,我有D有小朋友嘅friend真係有諗過走...真係好似果時97咁呵

So I was having dinner w/ mom earlier tonight, we have gone through what'd happened and stuffs about the 7.1 demonstration.

Obviously she was a bit worry that I was one of the 511 who got arrested (as i told her that I'd join, but i did whatsapp her Jul 2nd early morning that i was home safe at 22ish), anyway so here's our conversation.  All along, 其實,我只想輕輕帶過,唔想因為自己嘅執著而傷和氣

誰知,母親語重心長地繼續講

Mom:    而家點同97!? 97果時,只要你肯努力,一定搵到食.而家,唔同.你睇我哋而家呢D年紀,邊搵到嘢做?都有嘅,洗碗或者清潔
我:         而家洗碗好高人工㗎,好似有萬六、七蚊
Mom:     不過年紀大點搬盤碟呀。當年送你哋去讀書,都係怕你哋走唔到。你如果有機會,走啦。香港唔同晒㗎啦

聽到,真係好心酸

我媽學歷唔高,對於我嚟講,佢真係果D唔識政治嘅人,因為whole life she works her butt off for my sis and my education,佢邊有好似我哋咁有luxury 諗咁多,總之,佢只係好努力工作,希望俾我哋多個choice 

我哋仲講過其他近期比較爭議性嘅大題,好似東北未經城規會批就搶住批budget;吳亮星不停revoke自己嘅裁決;白皮書,7。1政府話只有9萬人,議員向 CY 掟玻璃杯。。。 i'm glad, my mom is not one of those 只睇 CCTVB 嘅普通C9 ( 其實佢好少睇 CCTVB D 劇),日後我亦應該對我媽多D信心

心噏,今天的香港

2014.7.1

one of the toughest 7.1 demonstration - 7 hrs...

regardless of what the actual number (Police: 99k, Organizer: 510k, HKU: 120-170k), a big part of me (and i believe many others too) is "自我感覺良好" and feel "good" i'm not the only stupid one to be there.

"我不認為七一遊行後,政府會有甚麼轉變,我不認為近八十萬人投票後,中央會給予香港人真正普選。但遊行我一定行、投票我一定投,為什麼?這是知其不可而為之,這是我這偽中產唯一可以做的事。。。我希望感受一番,原來香港人、不只飲飲食食;原來香港人,不光但求上樓;原來香港人、是數十萬計的香港人,和我一樣,都像儍子一樣,居然會選擇在七一這種又熱又濕的天氣下,走出來,聲撕力竭向中共、向特區政府發出怒吼,要求真正民主自由的來臨。 原來香港人,不純是經濟動物;香港人,仍有值得世人敬重的地方。"

Deep inside, understand as per Island Master mentioned "無論任何辦法產生的行政長官(話知您是什麼直選,公提直選,勿都好),最終決定權還是在中方。"  

我更唔希望我及很多香港人,"被某些人,左右都好,去矇騙,牽著鼻子走。最終,被帶領進入一個死胡塗,最後慘淡收場。您要知道,明白共黨是什麼類的東西。您知道是什麼嗎 ?您和他們接觸過嗎?和他們打過交到嗎?您知道他們的底線是什麼?"

其實見到咁多人,真的很可悲

聽見沿途播/唱著家駒嘅海闊天空,真的眼濕濕流下淚,概嘆點解我哋每年7.1 唔可以好似慶祝July 4th ,從心底裏高高興興地慶祝,反之每年不厭其煩上街示威遊行?? 其實,我真的累了,我真的希望可以普天同慶地慶祝。是我不知足,asking for too much?  是奢望嗎??

隔岸指責/support 很易,好似董伯伯話齋,留低比離開需要更大勇氣。(選擇)留下,不易。也許,another time heart over mind

P.S. this is what i posted on fb

"而家我同我嘅電話一樣 - 得返1%電: 兩點幾到維園3B session, 中間(晚上八/九點)只係喺補給站(aka Starbucks) 休息咗15-20min. It took me 7 hrs (14:30-21:50) from Victoria Park to Central... 92k? they mean 920k ah

Thanks for 同行戰友 Peggie Lau & Shabrad Chow風雨不改,同埋 kim lau, janet wong and 很多朋友們沿途打氣, 沿途唱起"今天我寒夜裡看雪飄過懷著冷卻了的心窩飄遠方...不禁感動,為何現在的香港那樣陌生?

希望我哋嘅政府正視我們的訴求, 2017 真普選, do you hear the people sing? (and unfortunately, were not able to take any picts after 19:30 as my battery is dead).

金錢世界...

最近做了個 heart over mind 嘅 decision, 希望這個 decision 唔會帶來任何negative impact to our relationship,更唔希望因為呢個 decision 而失去一段我好珍惜嘅感情. 

其實所有錢可解決倒嘅都唔係問題(只是時間上嘅問題).

願一切順利安好.

當年今日...

Not even Jun 4 yet, but more and more related posts are on FB these days as the time draw closer...

It is like a frozen moment in my mind - that the very next day (Jun 5) when 陳智儷主任 talked with us about what'd happened at Tienanmen Square the night before...

young I was, i REALLY appreciate her, and many other teachers back then, tried their VERY best to explain and discuss with back then UNDERAGE students in various occasion: during our "social science" class, or Chinese class, just can discuss openly.  We WERE underage back then, but that doesn't mean we shall not be exposed to what's going on (and be part of) what's happening around us, in our society....

I lost contact with 陳主任 already, only known she and her family immigrated to Vancouver after retirement.  May life be good to her and her family.

There are many "frozen" moments nailed in one's mind and follow for the rest of one's life. "社會堂 on Jun 5, 1989 taught by 陳主任" is definitely one of those moment for me, at least it is for the last 25 years.  (the other one was when 911 happened)

毋忘六四

歐錦棠 Stephen Au 

那是個充滿浪漫和冒險精神的年代。因為看了有哥哥、曼玉加紅姑的單元節目《日落巴黎》,翌日便馬上訂機票遠走花都,電視上出現過的景點,都按圖訪尋,舉機自拍一番,過了充實悠然的五天。 回程機是個折磨,也是個特別經歷,那時「蘇聯」仍出現在世界地圖,即使天空仍限制於鐵幕之外,其他航空公司要往返歐洲,跨越北極上空的「北極線」是另一選擇,整段航程約廿三小時,但可飛越地球頂端,體驗最短的日落日出,鳥瞰浩瀚白茫茫極地景致,此生不枉。

翻天覆地的變化 
那時,資訊流通不可與現今同日而語,身在外地幾與日常隔絕,航班上除了固定電影節目,例必有世界大事之類的新聞報道。就在回程機上,報道了兩宗新聞,令我看儍了眼:一是北京學運領袖下跪求見國家領導層不果,再發起二十萬人絕食;二是香港竟有超過百萬市民自發上街遊行支援學運。我不能想像在離港短短五日,在世界的另一端已掀起翻天覆地的變化;我不敢相信我的眼睛,一向號稱搵食至上,政治冷感的香港人一下子引發起愛民族、崇自由的熱情,竟可以如此純真可敬;但令我不可接受的,卻是中國人原來還不能從奴性底子自我釋放,即使申訴冤情,只要在天子腳下還得遵守尊卑莊閒。

看了片段,百感交集,激動莫名,相信機上老外無人會明白這青年為何看得哭腫了眼,他們不會明白,因為他們不能領會一個長久被淹在陰霾之中的民族是何等悲痛。

航班中途停莫斯科,全部乘客要按規定下機安檢,我有幸排頭位,機艙門打開,是一個身荷AK47、比我高一個頭,樣cool到殺人的蘇聯佬,令人不寒而慄,最後上機時被搜出二圓硬幣,波浪外形設計加上有女皇圖像,安檢人員見獵心起,我悉數奉獻才得順利登機,這就是我第一個在共產國家的遭遇,那時豈知這個鐵幕原來即將面臨解體的命運。 

以上是1989年5月21日前發生的事,之後,情況就急轉直下,由宣佈戒嚴、北京市民和幹部百萬人示威、到發起全球華人大遊行、然後就是六四屠城慘案。名著《1984》的作者George Orwell說過:「在這欺詐的世代,講真話就是革命性的行動。」 當今日有人提倡要把事件重新定位,更有人要翻出「真相」的同時,當年經歷過這一段刻骨銘心歷史的我們這一輩,就有責任將史實傳承,而各位年輕朋友亦應好好利用互聯網,深入了解這段歷史的起因,

毋忘六四。

Ah Ca 又一次的告別

It took me a while before i found ah ca's article @ Sun Daily (i didn't know it has been there for 7 yrs!) but ONCE AGAIN... time to 'say bye" personally don't really listen to radio at night, but at least i am following her fb page...

說再見容易,真的會再見的不多;在生命中能說完再見後再說再見的也買少見少,Ca, for sure will miss you until we meet again, may life be good to you (and your family!) :)

===

 一言為定:世上再無失散之事 http://the-sun.on.cc/cnt/lifestyle/20130430/00497_001.html

安在家中上上網搵搵樓!自從出現了手機、互聯網和林林總總的社交網絡,世上已無所謂「失散」之事,而你要找一個人的話,除非對方有心避開或被禁錮,否則總會找到。要找李敏的話,一定可以。數數手指,原來在這個地盤(專欄)已寫了7年,是大家賞賜給我的機會和緣分。如今搬家,真的捨不得你。今天最後,當然不能不鄭重地利用文字跟你溫馨地深情擁抱一下。

有人說:「再見並非永遠,再見也不是結局,只代表我會想念你,直至我們重逢。」

* 要找我,電郵、facebook和晚上10時至12時聽香港電台第2台都可以,假如有一天我們在街上碰到,我們會點吓頭、問候一下…… 李敏一言再見,多謝,掛念你。

* Goodbyes are not forever. Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean I'll miss you until we meet again!

懷念張國榮


唔經唔覺, Leslie 已走咗十年。

對於我嚟講,與哥哥最近嘅接觸應該係去佢係1988年喺紅館開嘅演唱會 (還記得係同大姑媽一齊去!)當年得過十多歲人,當然係超興奮!frankly speaking i really don't remember much about the concert that night, although, it was my first pop concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum in my life...

after a few years he "retired".. then i went to the States.  It has been a long time since he caught my eyes again - from my all time favorite 《金枝玉葉》 (i just realize it's dated back in 1994 - when i was in the states!?  but then likely it's a few year delay as back then not as much / as fast DVD haha)

then a few years ago picked up his songs again as it was someone's all time favorite - in fact, make me even fall more in love w/ his songs ever since.  Interestingly, it's also Leslie's song when someone hold my hands singing; and also make me fall for someone who can literally sing like him and the song we sang ! hahaha

“十年生死兩茫茫,不思量,自難忘。逝水如斯,而不捨晝夜,人生無常。唯獨愛有永恒,讓我們繼續寵愛張國榮。” 唐鶴德(唐唐)

your loved one use 蘇軾悼亡妻的詞 for the memorial notebook, really "讓人唏噓不已"

所以,哥哥你就好似無離開過;而事實上,生命中沒有太多人係離開咗十年後仲有咁多人仍然懷念你。真的是寵愛你的呀!



願意今生約定他生再擁抱

任俠耆兵再現江湖

Turn on TVB air the movie version 任俠耆兵再現江湖 this wk - er... can never "go to bed early" on sunday nite... how to stay awake tmr?! @_@'''

to me the most "attractive" part is for sure between 翼彥一 &羽鳥晶 - so SUPER SAD that she died before he propose to her V_V'' (i mean, why, at least let him get the ring on her ah ma!!!!) aiii.. cry die! 羽鳥晶臨死前說她覺得很幸福 - but 她真的很幸福嗎?

"當然不是," one of the 院友 told彥一, "她年青,但離了婚,又患了老退化症,淨返涼太一個),但她覺得自己幸福,是因為她選擇只記得彥一對她的好,而她亦忘記自己的不幸。That's why她覺得自己幸福 。。。

 Indeed! 幸福是掌握在自己的手裡!!

 and the scene toward the end when he depart w/ the kid, really so sad ah...涼太 has been very tough (trained by 彥一 / no choice), and said to 彥一 if he ever feel bored pls come back to visit... and even though he will be living by himself he will live a good life"...

and that's the end.. geez...

 i hope my eyes won't be too swallen tmr V_V'''' yet glad, i did manage to watch the end... i think i need to find out where to buy the DVDs...

任俠耆兵

任侠ヘルパー Ninkyo Helper

i don't want to forget this Japanese TV Drama - love it the first time when they air on tvb (actually a rerun that time but first time for me) every Sunday 11:00 -12:00 - "fell in love" at first sight and download and watch the whole thing in 1 shot (reminds me those good old days of "boiling" jap. drama @ B10)...

and now, tvb rerun again (again!) every sunday after midnite (i.e. Monday early morning) 00:30 - 03:00.   can't stop re-watching it again!  It talks about aging problem in a developed country like Japan, through the eyes of gangster (outdated trend?) yet w/ some "old" wisdom.  The main character is SMAP's 草彅剛 - never really pay too much attention (other than 木村that is haha) but in this drama i just fell in love w/ his character (even though he's suppose to be a bad guy (gangster).  He's just so "cute" and just "love" his 鐵漢柔情 - and final choice to live w/ 夏川結衣(飾羽鳥晶)and his leng 加藤清史郎涼太, instead of being the head of the gangster...

喜歡不複雜嘅人物關係

患難見真情

he always do that to the kid hahaha

enclosed is the chinese translated from jap's wiki... just in case they may erased it some time later... really like this jap. drama.  i heard there's a movie version (アンダルシア 女神の報復).... wish we could have a chance to watch in HK....
