For Taiwanese people in 20 / 30 something, lien-ie (聯誼, young boys and girls in separate schools and classes randomly group dating) is absolutely a jargon and won’t be recognizable in several years. Why would these people going out in group form (what makes these people a group?), and what would they talk? What do they have in commons? Any kid with online gaming and love-matching communities experiences would have more common words to say rather than the “virtual” school and class experiences. After digital medium transforms their lives, new life forms and jargons rise.

If the melancholy music of the spheres
Ever be perplexing to his mortal ears,
He flies unto the mountain
And sitting by some fountain
That in a beam of coolness from a mossy rock
Plunges in a pool all bubbling with its shock,
There he hears in the sound of the water falling
The sweet-tongued oriads to each other calling
Secrets that for years
Have escaped his ears.
The Priest of Pan, The Selected Poems of W.B. Yeats, by Yeats.
好像初三了才寫新希望清單有點遜喔
不過好像好好地跟自己說自己想要什麼是一件很重要的事情。第一個希望是,過新生活。過去的生活已經遠去,新的日子即將來臨。我想要神清氣爽地迎接新的日子的來臨。我的 blog 都是一些生活的瑣事片段,是往著未來的等待與過渡盼望。我希望這些新時刻的到來,能夠吹散生活中的殘骸與層積的雲層。
第二個希望是給同事們的:希望計畫能夠順順利利,同事們能夠享受到工作上手之後,加速飛行的樂趣。(這什麼描述啊 :P)我們一起為了一些理念努力了好久,尋找著自己與工作上的成長。我希望大家都能夠既順利又突破以往的格局。今年的挑戰更大喲。
第三個希望:添購生活中趁手的工具(像是一雙好鞋)。生活中的這些工具都像是我的夥伴一樣,我每天依賴他們,就像是我自己的延伸一樣。我希望新的一年我有更多的機會與時間照顧自己,照顧這些陪伴我的夥伴們。:P
