#開學 #心情

賓狗昨晚夢到了自己還是高中生，出門前不記得今天到底該穿制服還是運動服，還發現當天有數學考試，卻根本還沒讀完，於是就把自己嚇醒了。

開學後，平日不論是熱門餐廳、景點或活動，都會減少許多學生的身影，父母也不必整天煩惱今天一天要帶小孩去哪裡做什麼，相信很多大人的肩膀肯定鬆了不少。

今天是開學日，你是感到心焦如焚的學生，還是如釋重負的社會人士？
I feel really worried/relieved about the start of a new semester.

話雖如此，各位學生倒也不必太羨慕，因為總有一天，你也會邊喝咖啡，邊看一個個學生趕著去上學的模樣，然後羨慕起學生的生活。

無論大人或學生，一起享受當下獨有的樂趣吧！

<< 今夜星光燦爛 >>

情緒今天內持續七上八落，過得有點辛苦，突然一躍而下的强烈失落感讓我最難忘。還有自毀的思想，不過感恩的是，那股强烈的衝動已經走了。也許，一切都像是往好的方面走。期望，越來越穩定。

嘗試把跌宕的心情寫成一首中文小詩。不要問我爲什麽突然想寫詩，就是一坐在電腦面前就有一股衝動想寫吧！不過原來用中文寫詩真的很難，是方法跟英文很不一樣吧？結果，腦袋很自然就用英文來思考，我盡了很大努力也沒能翻譯作中文，結果一個字都寫不出，靈感連帶都走了。很挫敗，就讓我研究一下如何寫，下次再接再厲吧！

詩的内容都是我内心的真實寫照，是一個從小時候非常害怕玩鞦韆（比喻情緒起伏）的我，進步到今天願意嘗試的我的故事。寫得不好之處，不要介意，明白就好。

< Starry, starry night >

I took a leisure stroll after dinner.
The leaves swirled in the autumn wind.
They danced and kissed me softly,
whispering 'I love you'.

There it is. The long-lost swing.
It stood in front of me, in unusual stillness.
I stared at it and went spirited away.
It's crying, as always.

I heard my friends laughing and yelling.
It gave them a real thrill when we were small.
I hid in the dark corner, being teased at mercilessly.
I'm frightened. I admit.

'You need to overcome your fear,' a faint voice suddenly popped up.
No way. It's far too exciting.
'Why don't you give it a try?' the voice affirmed.
Oh God, am I really going to do this?

I got on the swing, bravely.
I closed my eyes and experienced all the ups and downs.
My heart's pounding crazily.
Am I still alive?

I opened my eyes,
using up all my courage, I vowed.
'The view is so gorgous!' I exclaimed.
I flew freely and played with the stars happily.

I'm relieved. For the very first time.
Life's all about ups and downs.
The night can be really cold and insecure.
But you'll never see the starlight if you're not in the dark!

Yet, it takes great courage to swing upwards.
The higher you get, the lower you sink.
It can be exhausting, as I complained from time to time.
But the better you cope with it, the more you can enjoy life realistically.

The swing stablized, smiling.
I gave it a broad grin, for the first time in life.
The autumn wind embraced me warmly.
I recollected myself and walked home under the shower of the starry, starry night.

Mary is in the park！謝謝見見！你好適合長髮！

疲憊又低頻の一天，本想去暢飲的，但還是選擇來場能讓我放聲大笑的午夜電影場，想必也沒什麼事更能做了。 「五星級魚干女」，從傻笑到噗聲哈哈大笑，甚至一些感動情節都能讓我覺得好值得噢，英語、中文、台語、日語 "龍眾來"！ 想想剛剛自己那麼大聲地笑真的比不開心的時候好多了，調整好心情，該好好休息了，明天又是新的一天啦～～～加油！

What a tiring day! My initial plan was going for few glasses, but eventually I chose to watch a funny midnight show that made me laughed till my jaw dropped. «Welcome to the Happy Days» is a show that I will highly recommend, and the dialogues are in different languages even dialect. I feel relieved after a good laugh. It's time to rest, tomorrow is another better day~~~
