Thunder-bolt
2008-09-19 23:45
I was bolted.

I was bolted. I could never imagine Stephen Fry so frighteningly thin and Auntie Thompson so frighteningly young (and a bit like our junior middle chinese teacher really). It is obvious Hugh Laurie has given every bit of his extra fat to Fry during their corporations in later years by some unknown means and Fry himself has managed to pick much other extra bits himself, again by mysterious means. He was quite an acceptable bugger by look at that time. Play, Alfresco. Bunch of Cambridge fellows and sheilas. (A little sob, if I could venture further in to the sentimental realms...) Good old days... The auntie's complexion has become much, well, bronzier, and Laurie has picked up so many wrinkles really. To think all these people are getting old... And I'm freakin' stumbling to bloody 18, no more than 12 months away... Seethin'... You fckin' get to realize you've encountered many people too late, only in recent years, when I've finally got some sentiment for bloody English; and missed so many good chances just because I was unbelievably smug and ignorant. As is the case of Menhuin. If I had paid attention to him some years earlier, I'd get suicidal before I missed his concert in Beijing, just one, two years before his death. But I was only 8, 9 at the time, right? So the essential prob is the wrong birth time. Karajan died in 1989. Lindgren died in 1995. And countless... Doesn't really make sense. But it is as if you had been born in a blank verse of time, literally. To imagine meself in the Elizabethan time for example, would be unpractical. Anyway the sanitary or hygienic conditions would be disastrous, and most likely I would land in the same place, which means I would be suffering among some freakin' braided people with some shiny foreheads and strange cheekbones, not to mention the brows part. I don't mean so exaggeratingly wrong a time. This one I have, is totally uneventful, if not mention the Olympic thing, this and that. Even if I be content with this Placidness, my birth time and my peers' is just, well, the NICK of time. We were doing some accountant work today. We are now in Senior 3. The lastmost bunch of old textbook users, which means it would be hell if we failed the exam. The last and the next mass will not suffer this. We were doing the Senior Middle entering exam when the Germany World Cup began. And we were in the so called most important summer vacation before Senior 3 when the Olympics broke out. The last mass was free as birds, and the next bunch of noisy students were busy scuffling around doing hell-knows-how-happy voluntary works, and at the same time depriving us of our delicious track and field and basketball hockey tickets. We did not enjoy anything in particular in our free years in which every so-called festival seemed to be tapering both in length and quality. And when these freakin' noisy youngsters came there's this fckin' natinal table tennis team visit, and countless...
    Uneventfulness is not totally against Chinese people's dispositions, right? But an uneventful life with so many trifles and annoyances is really bloody annoying, tiring, making people seething...
    Well, back to what I was saying. Been watching a lot of Rowan Atkinson and accidentally bumped into bulging-eyed Laurie. And fatty Fry (good surname I say). So watched lots of Laurie (and Laurie&Fry). And in order to watch his Doctor House I had to have my ears painfully tortured by Amc Acc. And Ben Miller and The Vicar of Dibley and freakin' lots of English sitcoms. Me Got an abnormal pathological taste of humour nowadays. Find Laurie a really talented fellow. Fry making strange whistle like sounds through his teeth when he speaks EngliSH... As to Atkinson, too hard to cover in one word. Just... weird.

it's not thinking these people getting old that's frightening it's more the idea that they've EVER been young (same difference as trying to imagine a teenage Dumby) mourning over people's dead bidies only because u missed their concerts? bit harsh thinking of dark times? no need to go so far back, just imagine yourself in the nazi germany phase. would be pathetic woundn't u? probably wouldn't have even lasted this long. really if u think about it, hitler might have had a very nice personality, only with a nasty twisted ideology and a brutal regeme. or in russia under the rule stalin. possibly worse than hitler, as he had both a nasty ideology AND a nasty temper.

Obviously you've been taking too much history lessons haven't you. I was wondering since when you've become so absorbed in Hitler and Soviet Union stuff. You mustn't think I was just mourning for the concert. I never have much high opinion about concerts in China, esp the ones arr by some gits. It's that I would feel really happy if I could see him in substance(though from a distance I'm sure), if you take me meaning. It would be very good even if I were not much older than a toddler, as long as I have some memory I can pick up in later days. If things are not about these persons who have passed away usually there is not much to mourn about.

Those dead-as-door-nail ones who have died in EVENTFUL days would be sure to think living people crazy if they were told people nowadays are dreaming about EVENTFUL lives. Or perhaps some of the freaking fellows who had found glory and this abundance in their blood-loosing wouldn't exactly feel this way.

I was not actually complaining about the uneventful thing. I'm just seethingly annoyed that I always have to be in the nick of time.And have to have such little annoyances onthers rarely encounter. I mean I never won a lottery or suffer great ordeal or anything. But remember the New Year party where the whole class exchanged gifts and I picked the fckin' number 8 and got my own present? And the time even YOU got full score in the running test and I'm the only dead fish in the whole class who got a 28, just because I jumped too well and ran to bad and got sorted in the wrong group, the fckin' athletic group filled with freaking deers? Don't mean any offence. Just too many Nick OF Time s, and I hate it.

Actually if you read memoirs written by those around him, I mean Hitler, you'd find he's not really very nasty, personally. It is just, as people say, the Germans tend to be a little dim when it comes to politics. However I consider Stalin quite nasty, really.

to tell ya the truth since i've been asked to write a 1000 words long essay all about it every week precisely what i meant about hitler. i mean how can someone that loves mickey mouse turn out to be a horrible person (although to a certain extent he was, with respect to jews). stalin, however, he was almost as cruel as hitler, his crime was only not so well publicised because he was such a total evil that he hushed it all up can't blame anyone for ur 'nick of time' really. unfortunate that god didn't ask for ur personal opinion when he was creating ur fate then (or those musicians', or he could have let them just hang on for a bit so u r grown up enough to realise exactly what they are playing)

Right. THAT'S for today. You can wait till Christmas season, Priest, when at the mercy of the 'Lord' prices are likely to be suppressed a little in pocket-killing Britain.I'll be dangling with killed pockets long before I get to the end of my book list. And used ones, attention! Do you prepare to buy Beedle Bard in London? I don't know. Suppose I could get it at the book building or somewhere. But I've heard nothing except on Amazon.cn. And there's Funkes' Inkdeath and Paolini's third book. I'm ALMOST convinced I'll buy a paperback. I've paid for the fckin' knave kid too much already. PS: D'you think I should get a boxset of LOTR DVDs?

that was hell of a fuching long list i've got the inklings and bio saved in wishlist, reasonable prices, i've been wondering for a while myself whether to buy them saw paolini's third book, new out so only in bardback, not expensive, within 10 quads, but i'll wait for paperback though, probably will cost about 4 or 5. got the first two today, 4 pounds each, paperback doubt if they are gonna have a discount at christmas, they do discounts but only boring books or highly popular ones, never the ones i have my eyes on if u r getting the lotr dvds, definitely get it from amazon, i don't think u can get a cheaper price anywhere else, 18 pounds. i got mine at hmv and it was 20 wait i'll have a look at the other ones

Since when have you begun to spell 'fucking' as 'fuching'? You got that fucking hardcover Eragon of mine and you go buying paperbacks. Don't prick me. Don't provoke me. The Lotr... The films are not MUch longer than mine. Promlem's the features... The 2nd edition's got much more ficsimiles of those scripts than the 1st edition. And I know absolutely nothing about the 3rd edition. The 3rd is not much cheaper than the Lotr boxset. The author's absolutely slimy an old chap. You've got to write to him to ask for the recordings and the cassettes are incredibly 'demanding'.

Remember how much distance you used to keep between yourself and vampires? And now you are freakin' crazier about them than I am. Never will anyone be able to fathom in what way the atoms in your AB blood will be bumping into each other tomorrow... So, well, in one thing, Laurie is interesting. He's a fckin' Eton and Cam toff, but he's got depression and kind of OCD or whatever. I just want to find some 'resonance'. Anyway, what do you think that 'unauthorized' means?

You must help me with Sil and Un! Help~~~~#@ If they're so fckin' new there's not really much point buying them there. I'll have a look at online exchange or sth to find old things. But basically people who buy these two books are not very likely to sell sth by GranT are they? Not that sort... Well I read an excerpt and found it good. The outline is about loving two people in one's life or sth. Normally if books I want to buy are officially labelled as 'romantic' story, the reason I buy them is not that part, rather, as you said, sth comic or controversial or sarcastic or historic or sth. Because genetically I'm very 'emotional' and what I do is normally keep myself from being triggered into that realm. Just kidding.That book is not very expensive... I've downloaded the German one. You've got a good point. So I'm not going to buy German edition. Probably an English one. Considering the translation is not bad.

Beedle is actually a medium book. So the collector's edition has always looked a bit exaggerated and a little sham to me, really, made as if it really had come down somewhere medieval or magical. The common edition is quite pleasant I think, with that bluish tree stump. But of course the binding must be much less elaborate.

laurie looks creepy and mean, considering he has ocd and depression(and probably schizophrenia as well by the look of him), he might as well have achieved something marvellous. by my interpretation, unauthorised might only mean personal or undiscovered stuff about him, meaning stuff he himself never expected the public to find out

i just fancy the look of a well-bounded ancient-looking book on my shelf, still, with 50 pounds could be my lunch money for about 3 weeks (not that i'm more interested in lunch than beedle) never mind ur romance book then, suit yourself why exactly do u want sil and unf anyway? i thought u had them already what kind of standards do u have? so u want an old edition then, how old precisely?

Um. People should get themselves clean shaven, shouldn't they. Esp when they're getting old.Seems Oldman has paid attention to this. Only OCCASIONLY has a ONE PART of your facial hair. Like, a moustache. Looks quite bedraggled on that cover. The popping bulging eyes look a bit--schizophenian--whatever,please yourself. So it's more expensive than in China. Are they hand-written?

Problem is I don't seem to be able to find anything old, I mean Sil and Un. I don't have them. The Sil was printed by my mother, and the Un was borrowed from the other Priest.I don't fancy the most popular edition of Sil, though it only costs 77. Rather small and hard to read.

And please pay some respect to those (/once were)DEPRESSED enough to think God shall never speak to them. You should watch Blackadder or Stewart Little 1 sometime. ----And obviously it'd be Sarah, if it was one of us at all. Now I come to think of that, indeed she seems to have told about that once. Mickey is too goody-goody, you know, and his stories are on many occasions hero-like. If Herr Hitler had fancied Donald or Scrooge, in particular, he wouldn't have such a... an attitude towards life, I s'ppose. Normally duck lovers aren't THAT ambitious.
