对自己诚实。






每天每天都在慢慢学习。
-----------------------------------
what shapes you(r identity)?

Looking back the first half of 2011, it seems like physically I've changed so much some people can't even recognise me- people do a double take or glance right past me, and I wonder to myself, are appearances that crucial when recognizing others?

I never have any difficulty recognizing people-
even the faintest of acquaintances, or randomness of people;
however much they've changed, or however little of who they were;
the uncle who's the store owner of some shop from n years ago, the friend's friend whom i only ever saw once on the bus, and he was asleep and drooling at that time;
things, places, people, situations like that;

Maybe I dyed my hair (for the first time), went from (in the words of hc) “超级嫩滑豆腐” to '黑人' (irreversibly sunburnt/tanned), (perhaps) lost some weight?
but essentially what defines who I am is still undeniably existent,



so why do people fail to recognise?
-----------------------------------
皮肤很白,
头发很黑;

有点尴尬,
不太会讲话;

甚至没有头发的我,



你(也)没见过。

可是,
那,又如何?

我,还是我。
-----------------------------------
一直很喜欢彩色的照片,
因为它给人一种很强烈‘我在活着’的感觉。



可是最近,
不知道是不是耳濡目染,

黑白那种很安静,却又很震撼的感觉-
我觉得很美。
