英语万岁....

又走进这间中餐馆吃午餐了。

里面人山人海，好不容易才找到空位。

邻座有两位穿着西装的男士，用很流利的英语交谈。

忽然其中一个手提电话响了，出乎意料的他用华语回答。

"Mr. Tan，请放心，你的payment很快就会弄好，我会亲自把cheque交给你.........。"

没多久，侍应生来点菜，用华语对那位男士说 "先生，要吃什么?"

"Sorry, I m not a China man。" 他一脸不悦的回答。

"Sorry Sir, may I have you order。" 侍应生很无奈的再用英语问他。

有很多懂华语的华人，很多时候因为贪方便或情况不允许，

不使用华语而改用其它语言，那是情有可原。

不过假如像这位仁兄，明明懂华语却假装不懂，

那肯定是自甘堕落。

英语万岁，Yeah !

Last Christmas............

Last Christmas 其实是一首由George Michael 唱的歌。第一次听这首歌的时候是在21年前一个Xmas party, 那个party是在某个朋友的家开的，出席的全都是从小时候一起读书的同学，那时候大家都尽情狂欢和跳舞，忘了什么叫做烦恼.......................。

最后一次和这班同学或从小玩到大的朋友相聚在一起庆祝圣诞节，是读完From 5那年，地点是在Pulau Pangkor的某个小岛。那晚黑黝黝的，抬头可以看见无数的星星。周围是宁静的，唱机也是播着这首歌。冷冷的海风不断的吹向我们，冷到大家都紧紧的围在火堆前一起BBQ。在这种 "浪漫" 的气氛挑逗下，很多人都说出埋在心理的很想告诉大家的秘密，有人向某人告白，有人说非君莫嫁，有人说要去外国读书，也有人说要去KL赚很多很多的钱，赚不到钱誓不回来.................。无论如何大家都许下了共同的诺言，那就是无论将来变得如何，都要时常保持联络，永远都是好朋友。那一晚，大家都有点伤感和惆怅，以为我们明白为了彼此的将来，很快我们被迫要各散东西。

2008的今天，有些朋友已经不幸去世，有些朋友已经移民外国，有些朋友已经成为大老板，有些朋友却不知所踪。

想想看，也已经很久很久很久很久很久很久.....没有见过这班老朋友了，是时候见见他们了。

究竟是失恋苦还是暗恋苦?

从没听过有人会为暗恋而自杀，但是却听过有人受不了失恋的打击而自杀。所以看起来好像失恋比较苦。失恋的滋味是如何我不知道，因为我没试过。暗恋却是有。根据曾经失恋的朋友说，刚开始失恋的时候，每天都茶饭不思，心如刀割。要经过一段很长很长很长。。。。。的时期才没有这么"伤"。

无论如何，我还是觉得暗恋比较苦，起码失恋曾经有个甜蜜的爱情，而暗恋除了得到痛苦之外，从开始到最后，什么也得不到。
