《人生大事》是大陸一部關於殯葬師的電影,也是今年繼《你好,李煥英》之後,第二部我好好坐下來看的電影。電影中有一句很溫柔浪漫的話:「天上的每一顆星,都是愛過我們的人。」
“Lighting up the Stars” is a Chinese movie about morticians. It is also the second movie that I sat down and watched this year, after “Hi, Mom.” There is a very romantic quote from the movie, “Every star in the sky is someone who once loved us.”
《時間都去哪兒了?》| “Where Has the Time Gone?”
親愛的媽媽,又到了妳的生日,今年我還是想唱首歌給妳聽。
Dear Mom, it’s your birthday again. This year, I wanted to sing another song for you.
高中 | High School
最近不知為何,常常想起我的高中歲月。如果我的人生是一部小說、所有事都有前因後果,那很多伏筆早在我高中時就埋下了。
For some reason, I have been thinking about my high school years a lot lately. If my life is a novel and everything can be traced back to a source, then most of the foreshadowing already started when I was in high school.
《明天會更好》| “Tomorrow Will Be Better”
曉彤生日快樂!送給你一首台灣最好的年代最好的一首歌,希望你的笑容永遠充滿著青春的驕傲,也希望你的明天永遠充滿著希望和美好。
Happy birthday Hsiao-Tung! Here is the best song from the best era in Taiwan. I hope your smile will always be filled with youthful spirits, and your future will always be filled with hope and wonders.
New Journey | 新旅程
On March 21st, I started my new journey as a Technology Program Manager at Visa.
三月二十一日是我在 Visa 擔任技術項目經理的第一天,我展開了一段新旅程。
攀岩 | Rock Climbing
距離我重新開始攀岩,已經快一年了。雖然攀岩乍看之下和我八字不合,但是它卻是我這輩子最美麗的意外之一。感謝所有曾經和我一起攀岩的人。
It has been almost a year since I started to climb again. Although rock climbing doesn’t seem to be the sport for me at first sight, it is one of the most beautiful serendipities in my life. Many thanks to everyone who once climbed with me.
《你好,李煥英》| “Hi, Mom”
去年年初,徐楨向我推薦《你好,李煥英》,但是當時媽媽剛離世不久,我實在沒有勇氣去看這部電影。將近一年之後,我終於點開了電影連結,結果還是哭暈了。
At the beginning of last year, Jane recommended “Hi, Mom” to me. Back then I did not have the courage to watch it because my mom had just passed away. Almost a year later, I finally opened the movie link, yet I still cried my eyes out.
書 | Books
雖然身為千禧世代,但是從八歲起,我幾乎就跟電視絕緣了。我已經數不清第幾次被問,如果我不看電視的話,我大把大把的時間究竟花在哪裡了?
Although I am a Millennial, TV has not really been a party of my life since I was eight. I have gotten a lot of questions about how I spent I time growing up since I barely watched TV.
夏威夷島(大島)| Hawai’i (Big Island)
在可愛島上盤桓數日後,我們前往夏威夷島(大島)。大島感覺比可愛島更鄉下,但我們每一天都有新的驚喜。
After a few days in Kaua’i, we traveled to the Island of Hawai’i (the Big Island). The Big Island felt even more rural than Kaua’i, yet we were wowed by new wonders every day.
可愛島 | Kaua’i
今年冬天因為新冠疫情持續肆虐,無法像往年一樣回台灣,所以我們決定利用假期造訪全美國離台灣最近的一州:夏威夷。第一站是有「花園之島」美譽的可愛島。
This winter, we could not go back to Taiwan because COVID continues to rage. Therefore, we decided to visit the state that is the closest to Taiwan — Hawai’i. Our first stop is the beautiful “Garden Island” — Kaua’i.
