Books 書

The annual book fair has just concluded on Tuesday. I have tons of unread books. I purchased these books because I thought I would love reading them, but put them to the bookshelf after flipping not more than 20 pages.
Don’t wanna to buy books that I will not read. I am refrained from buying books after merely a glance of the covers.
I have bought seven books, of which five are about my favourite subjects. These books are The Reader (I like the movie very much), 村上春樹(Murakami Haruki)的「關於跑步,我說的其實是……」,莊曉陽(Chong Hiu-yeung)的「42公里的風光」(Chong is a reporter. I buy this book because the stories in his blog are good and I am interested in the scenery and people of other countries),一本名為「愛國無罪」的書及李鵬飛回憶錄(Two books only cost HK$5)
And I have bought a book named The Reluctant Fundamentalist. I have read a shortened Chinese translation of the story online already.

My friend Matt bought me a bag of coffee powder from Vietnam and the filter. I am making Vietnam coffee for dinner at office. The quality is not as good as what I have tasted in restaurants.
I need a book about making coffee.

一年一度的書展在星期二完結。
我在家中已囤積了一大堆未看的書。買這些書時,很多時都因為封面或書名吸引,沒有細看內容,結果在家中看不這20頁就不再看。
今年限制自己買一些封條吸引但不知內容是什麼的書。
買了7本。當中5本的題目真的是自己有興趣的。這些書包括「讀愛」﹝我喜歡那電影﹞、村上春樹的「關於跑步,我說的其實是……」﹝簡體字版,25元﹞、莊曉陽的「42公里的風光」﹝莊是前行家,不過,買這書是因為他的blog好看,以及我對各國人景物有興趣﹞、一本名為「愛國無罪」的書及李鵬飛回憶錄﹝兩本書才5元﹞。
還有一本名為「拉合爾茶館的陌生人」的書。買前已在網上讀過中文翻譯濃縮版。

朋友Matt在越南買了咖啡粉及過濾器。在辦公室吃晚飯時就弄一杯咖啡,自家製的品質不比餐廳的好。
我要一本咖啡的書。

深圳唱卡拉OK

折磨了我38個工作天的龔如心爭產案證人作供終於完畢,雙方律師在9月結案陳詞,之後法官擇日宣判。
當天下班後,立即會一班同樣被小甜甜折騰的行家唱K。
翌日週末,與兩位友人W及U到深圳拜會舊上司M,又名Spit。
飯茶,按摩(嘉洋城/ 不錯)再晚飯(毛家菜,6個人才295元,好食及便宜)及唱K。
沒有想過會去深圳唱K。
深圳唱K也很便宜,六個人唱了兩小時才120元。
是日消費(除了按摩外),全由M及他的朋友負責,有點不好意思。
愉快的一天。
星期一,又是煩人的工作。

More Songs by Gurrumul Yunupingu

WIRRPANU


11 - Gurrumul Yunupingu - Wirrpanu.mp3 -

Yi, yi, yi, yi
The thunder has formed, there at Bawuduwudu Naypinya
Dhanurryuna threw it, the python Garrawananu Liliplyana
Yi, yi, yi, yi

Dad to dad, when will we return to Dhamdham (Goulburn)
Because the time for thunder is here
Come let’s return to Mawi

The thunder has formed, there at Bawuduwudu Naypinya
The thunder sent his mind back, the python Garrawananu Lilipiyana
