上海回往北京Z2火车上
Posted by soapwater16 Mon, 26 Dec 2005 06:33:00 GMT
车程12小时。 （12月25日）
久违了。终于挖（从背包里）出了笔。
好几天，几乎没曾象以前旅行一样，拿出笔记本，把感想和旅游的点点滴滴， 在第一时间就写上。
天气太冷是其一。冰冷的北风把灵感都冻地僵硬了。手里拿着一大堆barangbarang. 包包，帽子，手套， 围巾。 要再找笔纸就真的太费力气。
不是懒。
也许我还没被感动吧
或者因为从来没见过这么多吐痰的人头.

Had a great dinner with jp’s friends. Interesting people. Interesting conversations and views.
Well, i wondered if it was the beer, mutton, Mala hotpot or the F@#* up traffic of beijing. What a booboo i made! On the otherhand, i kinda liked the idea of leaving my crap near the walls of the forbidden city. HAH. Extremely touched by my favourite guitarist who helped take care of merlion through the night.
phew.
游记08122005： 同胞？ 我的脚。

又花了一笔钱， 买了一些还算不赖的国产录音器材。
firebox: 24-bit/96K firewire
U95S tube mike
nEar05 monitor
PCMCIA to firewire card
由于已经好一段日子没有收入，想到了钱， 心里还是会有点儿不平衡。 （没替别人卖命，当然没有卖命钱啦！） 。。
好不容易搭地铁到五道口站， 在摄氏0下4度的天气， 再走上30分钟左右， 来到了中官村鼎好大厦的一间小店。
但当他们一知道我们是从新加坡来的。他们的眼神就发出了光， “啊哈哈! 恺子来了!” 表面上， 竟然可以昂然大声说出: “你们是新加坡人!我们不赚你的钱!” 还很有骨气地对另一家店长说:”别赚他们的钱! 他们是新加坡人..” 简直一副虚伪样. 一群不老实的狼. 脸上还陆出很痛苦委屈的表情. 价格当然比一般还贵.
你们这些金鸡奖最佳男女主角, 演技派高手, 我已经看穿你们的陷阱. 要不是因为时间的关系,我才不会这么容易让你们得逞.
最后, 他们还很友善地帮我们叫了一辆 “霸王” 车. 以15元的车费, 把我们这两个异国同胞载到了地铁站. (一般收费应该是10元)
如果没有特别的事, 我一定不会再踏入这片没有人情味的国土.
We bought some cool MIC recording stuff. Although buying stuff is fun, the entire shopping experience is less than great. When those people at the shop found out that we were from the sunny island of singpore, i swear i could almost hear “dollar KIK CHINGGGs” in my ears. They kept claiming that they wont earn any profits from us cos we are from singapore. And even told other shop owners that. Like hell i believe. These people are not notorious in the entire globe for nothing. Of course, we did our homework beforehand, the cost of some of the things were expectantly higher. If we had the luxury of time, i wouldnt allow us to be regarded as suckers and taken for a ride.
I feel ashamed to belong to the same genetic pool as these human beings. Even if it’s a remote 1000000 years back. Will try not to contribute to the dishonest thriving economy giant if i can.
Same blood? My foot.
No thanks to Wisdom

My left lower wisdom tooth is exploding its way out from my lower jaw. It has become worse in the -9 degrees beijing polluted air. For the first time, Im saying no thanks to wisdom.
Ouch!

在双井街附近的小街乱逛时
被一副摆在其中小店铺的巨型海报所吸引
其实没什么特别的
海报里的妖艳女郎不算美丽
海报上竟然写着的是“新加坡小天后” ！！
别误会 她 当然不是孙燕姿
是一点印象也没的“新加坡小天后”
想想也蛮可悲的
因为我已经把她的名字给忘了
** While we were causually strolling around Shuangjingstreet, a giant poster placed outside a lonely shop suddenly caught my eye. Well, the poster lady was not particularly too pretty or anything (in my personial opinion), it was the captions splashed on it in bold that caught my attention.
“Queen of Singapore POP”, it says. !! Well, she’s defintely not Stephanie Sun, or Tanya Chua or even anything remotely near. Too bad we couldnt even recognise her.
What a pity. Cos we had already forgotten her name.
And someone commented that she looked similar to cheer chen in one of cheer’s poster… cow.
