The Polar Express

今天跟NAHEHE閒聊時談到The Polar Express,便提議一起去看。致電去問問還有沒有票,竟聽到「還有三百九十九個座位可供電話預訂」,驚訝不是因為還有很多座位剩下,而是猜不到那間小小的戲院竟會有四百個座位!

這電影絕對值得購票入場觀看。不談內容,單單是看電影的特技已經值回票價。Tom Hanks一人分飾五角,北極的風暴,火車如過山車般走,真是十分真實,加上該院異常強勁的空調,叫我們彷如置身於北極般…

我想戲中其中一個信息叫成人不要忘掉小時的夢想,小朋友跟成人的分別大既就是少一點現實,多一點天馬行空。成人總會給現實框著自己,記不起自己的夢想,又或是認為自己的夢想不切實際。誰知道天馬行空就不會有實現的一天呢?

除了電腦特技及內容,戲中的配樂也十分好聽。其中我最愛的是When Christmas Comes to Town

When Christmas Comes to Town

La La La La La La La
La La La La La
La La La La La

I'm wishing on a star
And trying to believe
That even though it's far
He'll find me Christmas Eve

I guess that Santa's busy
Cause he's never come around
I think of him when Christmas comes to town

The best time of the year
When everyone comes home
With all this Christmas cheer
It's hard to be alone

Putting up the Christmas tree
With friends who come around
It's so much fun when Christmas comes to town

Presents for the children wrapped in red and green
All the things I've heard about but never really seen
No one will be sleeping on the night of Christmas Eve
Hoping Santa's on his way

Presents for the children wrapped in red and green
All the things I've heard about but never really seen
No one will be sleeping on the night of Christmas Eve
Hoping Santa's on his way

When Santa's sleigh bells ring
I listen all around
The herald angels sing
I never hear a sound
And all the dreams of children
Once lost will all be found
That's all I want when Christmas comes to town

That's all I want when Christmas comes to town

Start Over 重新上路

Have been thinking and reading a lot during the 'holiday', and guess have detached from the bad mood...

Most Impantant of all, somehow some of my 'can't remember' problems are solved:
I am having my holiday right now;
26 Dec was the last Sunday I am out of office;
A Child Called 'It' + The Lost Boy were the last books I read in one go;
Page One (Kowloon Tong) was the last book store I visit;

Goal reset.

Frankly speaking, what I am having, so-called, holiday is really just SOHO working.... Anyway, I have forced myself to put aside all my work and enjoy the public holiday. (Haha, even I want to work, I could not cause my client would not work...)

I am NOT going to work like what I have been working next year! I have give up way too much already. I am determined!

這幾天「假期」想了很多東西,看了十多書,大概從先前低落的情緒回復過來吧!
最重要的是,先前一部份「失憶」問題在這幾天「假期」也解決了。
上一次放假是現在;
上一個不在公司的星期天是十二月二十六日;
上一次一口氣看完的書是A Child Called 'It' + The Lost Boy;
上一次逛的書店是Page One;

目標也算是尋回吧!

其實現在也談不上放假,因為我只是把工作的地點搬回家……無論如何,這幾天在家比較輕鬆,成功強迫自己在這幾天紅色假期放下手上的工作吧。(哈哈,就算我不放假,客也要放假,所以我也沒有甚麼可以做……)

來年無論如何也不可以再這般埋首工作了,回顧過去一年,付出的實在太多太多了。不可以再這個樣子了。

失憶

記不起
上一次放假是何時;
上一個不在公司的星期天是哪個;
上一次六時離開公司是哪日;
上一次一口氣看完的書是哪本;
上一次行山是走哪一個;
上一次逛的書店是哪一間;
上一次砌的模型是哪一副;

記不起
從那天我的生活變了這個樣子。

記不起
從那天開始我對這樣的生活模式不再感到有問題。

記不起自己以前的目標。

甚麼都記不起了。


還是…

我不想記起?
