博客搬家

我得博客搬家到新浪上了,欢迎大家光临:)
这里保留原来的文章和照片!

周末的荷兰小镇

这个周末闲来无事,想起了博客上那些色彩艳丽的照片,于是,按奈不住内心冲动的我,拉着老公来逛我们居住的小镇。想着边走边学边拍,定是能捕捉到好画面的。

    这是一个阳光灿烂的好日子,但秋天的痕迹已随处可见。在我眼前呈现的画面便是秋意浓浓。于是,这便是我按下的第一张照片,家门前的小路。

虽说如此,荷兰人爱花却是名副其实的。一年一度的郁金香花展早已过,但仍然可以在小镇上享受绚丽的色彩。邻家花园内的鲜花开的惹人爱,自然是我不能错过的。

看到了周边邻家的小孩在玩耍,便赶快按键!虽说中国人在荷兰随处可见,但大都也是集中在城内吧,我们居住这个小地方,我则是唯一的中国人,所以,自然引起这些荷兰娃娃们的好奇心

我和老公(中国和波兰)

     突然想到了这个话题,当然是因为我和我老公时不时会很努力的学习对方的母语。不过,我们俩都不是及其认真的,或者说没有持之以恒的鉴定信念,所以至今双方的水平还停留在小孩牙牙学语阶段。
 
     又想起了我们在上海时的波兰语翻译Monica,她当时告诉我们,在中国,只有北京第二外国语大学有波兰语系,而且是每两年招生10名。问题在于这些毕业生由于从没在波兰住过,所以听力和口语都有限,而相对领事馆之类的职务又常处于饱和状态,以至于有些毕业生都分配不出去,所以现在学校还要减少招生人数。而目前在上海只有5个人会说波兰语,其中4个都已经退休了,Monica40出头吧,算是最年轻的波兰语翻译了!也难怪,当时在上海,找这样一位翻译算是大海捞针了,我记得我打电话到翻译公司资讯时,对方接线员竟然木纳半天,很折腾的回答我:“波兰。。。波兰是说波兰文的?”弄得我有些哭笑不得,感觉如同在和外星人交流,但是想到自己前几年头一回碰到波兰人时(其实第一个认识的波兰人就是我老公!Baring teeth),也在心里纳闷许久。。。后来,陆陆续续的,我认识了一大串波兰人,在和老公回忆往事时,我情不自禁的坦白,过去自己对波兰唯一的了解就是在历史课上,被历史老师告之希特勒在1939年9月只用了一个月的时间就把波兰给占领了,而我之所以记得这么牢,是因为那时学生时代,苦不堪言的背诵历史,而这个侵略事件则是二战的开始,所以考试总是要考到,所以我老是要反复的背到,所以我就这样把波兰给记住了!当然,后面又有什么圆桌会议,但都记不清了。我老公自然是要对我遵遵教导一番,后来我最好的波兰朋友,是饱读历史,这让我对自己在国内曾受得历史教育感触颇多!这些暂且不多说,无论如何,波兰的历史要比我们短了近三千年,所以当下该被好好教导的人自然是可想而知的。Open-mouthed
 
    如果说在中国还能掰着手指数出可以说波兰语的人,那么在波兰大概目前为止还没有一个正真会说普通话的吧!据我的一个好朋友(她是中文系的)说,她教过很多国家的人学说中文,其中稀奇古怪的,包括阿富汗等等,就是没有教过波兰人。其实,大多数波兰人对中国还是近似一无所知,这几年波兰的兴趣大都在西边,跟着美国走的样子,而要提到东边,大概99%的人想到的是俄罗斯,那则是要严重感冒的。而至于中国,日本啊,大概也要翻翻地图,确认一下在地球的哪个位置。他们对我们的兴趣似乎跟我们对他们的兴趣差不多?其实不然,自从波兰加入欧盟后,很多波兰年轻人都走出了国门,有机会接触到不同的文化。在我认识的很多朋友中,她们都对中国非常的好奇,只是由于过去环境的限制,而了解少罢了。我后来在贝法的日子中,遇到爱娃,她对中国的热情可以说是“fever",发烧,这话一点都不夸张,记得那时她的房间一面是巨大的中国地图,而其余则贴满了中国的文字图画,那时我教她中文,她教我波兰文,这样维持近半年。之后,她一个人去了中国两个月,跑遍了大半个中国。记得那年圣诞节,我在波兰,知道她刚从中国回来,兴奋的我迫不及待的想见到她。可以说,当自己看到一个波兰女孩谈论中国时露出的无比激动,我感到太幸福了!后来她房间的墙上贴满了在中国的照片,我愣愣的站在这些画面前半休,感叹一个外国人将自己祖国的美丽体现的如此淋漓尽致。再这之后,我又碰到波兰女孩高夏,那时我们俩除了化学之外,就狂谈历史,和文化,她后来去了大连一个月,我记忆犹新,她在大连和我通电话时,我望着窗外灰色的天空,心中有点淡淡的失落。而她回来之后,忍不住的和我唠叨,中国人对吃饭的疯狂!她说竟然在游泳池内,中国人都不忘吃~Tongue out
 
    我和我老公常半开玩笑的说,我们责任重大,建设中国和波兰的友谊就在我们的肩上。每次我都很希望,我在英国的朋友来波兰看看,但更想让在国内的朋友来波兰,这并不是件很困难的事情。一部“布拉格恋人”让中国人有了去捷克的愿望,波兰需要的首先是广告效应,看来为了这个,我和老公就该有足够的理由努力学习对方的语言了。
 
 
 
 
 

Wedding picture--花絮


上海拍的结婚照片让我陆陆续续的见到庐山真面目了!其实,我早就安奈不住内心的冲动了,因为在上海的亲戚朋友大概都比我要看到的早!上回,我的死党汪培兰居然把我的照片和录像放在单位的机器上,然后很朵悠的跟我说,我帮你copy了好几份,我每天都在这里欣赏一回,不错啊,哈哈!我脆弱的神经。。再敲打键盘也无济于事!

前面,我的表哥nicky给我看了些他个人替我拍的现场照片,虽然只有一小部分,不过还是看的我很有意思的。:)Niicky对艺术实在是热情高涨,又非常敬业。想到那天,他在草坪上左右滚动,扑捉画面,让人家专业摄影的也大跌眼镜。我和老公都很佩服,所以,现在先把这一小部分拿上来,和大家一起看着乐!

The photos taken in shanghai wedding gradually appeared to me! In fact, I already could not cope with my ethusiasum for the unseen pictures and vedio because my friends and familes there already watched them! Last time, my DEAREST friend lanlan put my photos and vedio on her PC in the company! Then she was very relaxed and easy easy telling me:" I had made a lot copies for you. I appreciate them each day here, not bad, haha!" My poor nerve...but what is the use of knocking on my keyboard?
 
Just now, my cousin Nicky sent me some photos he made for me during the scene that day. Though that was a small part, I found interesting:). Nicky is highly passionate for the art, also he has much devotion for the job. When I recall that day, he was rolling on the grass to capture the best angle, even the professional photographer was surprised! My husband and I admired a lot, so here I put his link to share the pictures.

周末的心思

 

周末,荷兰雨下得一塌糊涂,灰蒙蒙,阴沉沉的,我们住的这小村压根就不见人影,我本指望着老公开车带我去周郊转一圈,所有的欲望被这让人郁闷的天气一扫而光!呆在家里吧,看着窗外,想起了北爱的天空,定也是阴雨绵绵,烦透人心吧?又想起了那边的朋友,肯定他们继续在实验室奋斗,在电脑前赶论文,或是在PEC较量羽毛球,想至此,不禁傻笑起来,个个伙伴们的英雄斗志都浮现眼前。那段时光逝去的不遥远,让我总是指指点点来怀念。
 
目前的课让我这个年纪的人看来感受大不如从前。没有了为学位而学的压力,我的学习是为心而学的,是为好奇而学,是为乐趣而学。我很喜欢我们其中的一些老师,尽管上的是管理学内容,可我觉得她说话有哲理,逻辑感,听她说话就有一份享受。我想着这个系很多的老师都可以是很好的心理学家,或是哲学家吧?不过,享受归享受,考试作为学生终究是要面对的,我有些漫不经心,理由自然显而易见,不过,话说回来,考试的答案可能只有一个,走向了社会,就发现答案岂止一个,学习永远是个无止境的过程。

波兰结婚照

在波兹南结婚后,很多朋友都问我拿一些照片看,今天,我和Ted整理了一些亲戚朋友拍摄的照片总共有1000张左右,我们选了大约百张左右,其中基本上包括了每一位在波兰参加我们婚礼的客人,现在放在google的网站上,和大家分享。
 

将睡眠进行到底

结婚后,kochany对我的“恶习”早上赖床,感到深恶痛绝,每天他几乎要花10分钟的脑力加体力将我从床上拎起来。我呢,心想,我多睡一会儿他也正好可以准备早饭。再说,老清老早的,谁不恋床?
 
结果,我kochany花80欧元买了一款飞利浦最新研制的唤醒睡眠灯。这产品模仿自然光线,由晨曦的微亮到白天的明亮,加之一些大自然的背景音乐,将人温柔般的唤醒。
 
于是,我怀着好奇的心情入睡拉!今天早上,感觉很早很早,漆黑一片中,忽然有着微微的,微微的柔光,而后叽叽喳喳的有几只鸟在周围盘旋,我又好像听见我隔壁的邻居在弹钢琴。。。就这样,我还是昏昏欲睡,一直到太阳当头照---那灯能量十足的光芒四射!我死活闭着眼睛,心想:我哪能就这样输给高科技产品了?我将被子猛的一拉,抱头就睡!我的kochany开始嚷嚷了,蹩脚的说:“起床!起床!”。
 
突然想到了小丸子,不是很爱睡懒觉的?将睡眠进行到底,也是我清晨铁打的原则哟,嘿嘿!Baring teeth
 

Life of Pi

Days ago, I was reading LIfe of Pi. The ship sank, Pi survived magically with a tiger  in a lifeboat on the pacific ocean. Holding hope, loosing hope, time become meaningless, fear took over. One day, he saw the magic, an ireland appeared in front of his eyes after so many days, months or even a year? He saw the glory colour of green...
 
That day, I almost cried. I never felt such a realise. I was so happy. That day, I read the final chapter: Life of Pi.

Home thoughts

Back home, i feel so good about shanghai although I still say what a pollution...:)
 
Well, i think to experience the change in this city and among people, I must then step out and to be in touch with them.
 
I found so apparent changes in most public services, and as well as the awareness in people. I used to think a blank cold face present in front of any public services, while most people had to lead a submissive life.
 
When this time I stepped into the public service, I noticed how well organised and decent services for every of us. I noticed people no matter from this city or others they knew they could seek for aid from leagacy services(and it is completely free!). And I noticed the officer the laywer all of them were professional and good attitude, I had much appreciation. I realise it is so wrong if I just say this city only changes in appearance. Certainly during these years, there are much more happening to the people. Shanghai is becoming a multi culture international city with great tolerance.
 
I have a very busy short week in shanghai. These days the news I most hear is Olypic. Everything is for the moment...Regardless whatever opinion could be, I must say no nations would like chinese put so much devotion and effort for the national pride.

The Davinci Code

Days ago, I finally finished reading "The Davinci Code". I enjoyed the story and when recalling my memory on the film which I watched a year ago, all the bewilderness seemed clear out. Of course as a Chinese, I felt much absorbing learning as well as entertained.  Because I do not have such a culture influence that I could fairly read through and within a distance to look at it.
 
The story ends of course in my opinion a bit surprising, but as a novel it certainly needs its publicity. I do not think it has over dramatic description. Enjoying the story plots is one aspect, the profound information provided regarding Christian history is the other aspect for me. The question is how much I can trust all the facts written there? I take them but I know these are not really important to dig. History is always written in a way inevitably one-sided accounted, as the winner can take all. Just like what I have been taught and what I could possibly to read now abroad. I feel so much changes on my mind but emotionally I could feel hurt as well.
 
My polish friend told me she felt deeply offended when she read this book. According to what she knew, there are many obvious mistakes written such as the description about "Louvre". However, I think it is emotionally she cannot take this easily. This religion has already been the fabric reality in western culture, part of the society, and it does help people who lives in this kind of reality to be a better person. Whether all the matters are true or not are perhaps insignificant in this sense. This intrusion hurts people. Of course, I have completely different comprehension of "faith", as here it is understood as a person who has riligious believeness, such as believe in God and heaven. This is beyond me and I do not feel a sense to concern because there are so many to concern in every day life. To be faithful to me is knowing one's responsibility, caring relationship, trusting, loving, to be a better kind for self and others. It is not in a special form to judge a person's faith.  
 
My friend said I am certainly an atheist but also a truly humanist:)

Recent Trace

I always wanted to update my blog. Indeed, there have been many things happened in my recent trace of life. I wished to tell but each time I found it was hard to describle in details. Some trivia are not worth of mention.
 
My time spent in Catalan, Spain was absolutely beautiful. I loved my holiday. From Barcelona to Costa Brava, I enjoyed the wonderful spanish architectures, spanish villages and delicious tapas!! Thanks to my darling for reading me Spanish history while we were lying at the beach, and introducing different historical people and interesting sites with very much patience. Knowledge is always good and it is never too much to learn. My holiday was not just drinking, eating and lying at beach. The fascinating building in Barcelona such as Casa Mila and Sagrada Famila brought me so much interests for knowing and appreciating the most beautiful European architectures.
 
Having had great time, I felt somehow still indulged myself in. Back to my work, the atmosphere in the lab just did not seem very alright to me. It was so strange when something was indescirbable and that made me feel very depressive. So one moment, I felt so wrong that I should quit. This work did not make me happy and I began to feel less care. I could hardly feel any motivation and any hopes in this job. Then again, loosing my job will be a disaster because my life equilibrium will be lost, and I will not have any wishes to stay in this country..
 
What shall I sum up? I hope I always can see the greatness through things and people. I want to be loved(or liked) and also to be a good person for others. It sounds like very big and idea words... and I am not silly to say that I can do it. But at least, it is good wish. So, for good, I look forward to.

荷兰行-国立艺术博物馆

 
我大概途经阿姆斯特单不下10次,每回总是以中转或路过的名义,我是非常喜欢游玩的人,一书在手,总有妄想一览天下的雄心。这次,终于有机会和我的朋友Grzegorz,Magada脚踏实地的参观了荷兰国立艺术博物馆和凡高艺术馆。
 
国立艺术博物馆的确是值得瞻仰的,它向人们述说着17世纪的荷兰,黄金时期的奇迹,一个在战争不间断中,成为无比繁荣和强大,自立于欧洲的小国家。它的繁荣不仅仅在贸易和海运中得到充分体现,更在艺术和文化中见证。荷兰人爱花,如痴如醉,17世纪那原本在亚洲高原上不起眼的野花,郁金香,却能让荷兰人爱不释手,倍加珍视且栽培。荷兰人又爱画画,几乎每家每户都有绘画作品。国立艺术博物馆则集中展示了当时黄金时期的经典艺术作品。伦勃朗,亨利克,德克,约翰尼斯。。。及许多许多的艺术家用绘画,将当时的历史保留了下来。其中,我最喜欢的一副作品,是亨利克的“冬景”,在隆冬,冰雪覆盖,小镇的人们却饶有兴致,在冰面上进行各类活动,有滑冰的,有承雪橇的,有玩高尔夫球的,有富人在交谈,有穷人在冰上打洞,取水,捕鱼。。。画面大约呈现了不下上百人,亨利克是位聋哑人,却是名副其实的故事家,我不禁被这幅格调明朗,维妙维肖的冬景给吸引了。让我印象颇深的还有荷兰玩偶屋,它可不是普通的玩偶了,它展现的是当时荷兰富贵人家房间的布置,是一个缩小的家庭住宅模型,每件物品的材料据说都是使用与实物相同的材料,设计的非常地道与精致,让人一饱眼福。
 
馆内众多众多的艺术珍品确无不向人们见证荷兰人为之骄傲的历史,的确,即使作为一个外国游人,我也不禁感叹他们在百年间经济上所取得的无比成就,高度发达的文化与艺术。荷兰人是有理由世人惊叹与羡慕的。
 
 
 

荷兰行-又见郁金香

又是5月,我如愿以偿,故地重游了荷兰一年一度的花展。
 
欧洲的春天,今年似乎暖和的有些过火,展内许多花儿都因早早凋谢而被减去,但它依然给爱花的人们带来许多惊喜。那些紫色,粉色,金色的郁金香是如何开的这般栩栩如生,让人为之倾心的呢?我和朋友们情不自禁的俯身细观,百般不舍,不愿离去。我再次感叹荷兰人对花的热情,如痴如醉,让我也梦想拥有一方土地,为花而狂的欲望。美丽,绚烂的花儿令人心动,面对它们时,你会不由自主,爱不释手,内心的喜悦油然而生,会觉得生活中有了这些颜色,不快乐就是一种罪过了。

感谢-Thank you

我本来并不想写这篇博客,但我的kochany催我好几次,建议我得写下这一重要的时刻:228日,我顺利的通过了我的博士论文答辩。 

或许是因为时间托的太久,我对此疲惫不堪的心情让我觉得现在唯有能享受的便是解脱。大半年前递交的论文,由于外审的缘故,一再的拖沓论文答辩的时间,对家人,朋友都快磨破了嘴皮子,反复的解释,让我感觉得无法言说的委屈和负担。我便在彷徨与困惑中不断的寻找自己的平衡点,我不敢想象最坏的结局,因为对于我来说,那是绝对不容许的。  

今天,我可以把一切抛到九霄云外,这是怎样的解脱!

我,还是要,一定要,感谢我的父母这些年来对我的支持和信任,你们永远是我最最亲的亲人,无论我在天涯海角。  

我,感谢我的亲爱的朋友们的陪伴与关心,我时时都在心里惦记着你们,不论你们是否在我的身边。

最后,要对kochany说,让我们一起分享这份喜悦,今年的7月会有你的陪伴。


I did not intend to write this blog, but my kochany has suggested me several times that I needed to write down this important moment: 28/02/2007, I successfully passed my PHD oral dissertation.  

Perhaps it has been a long time, such an exhaustion made me feel the only joy I could possibly have now is the release. My thesis has been submitted more than half year ago, however due to the external examiner, the viva was postponed over and over. I felt injustice and much burden when I had to keep explaining to my families and friends. I fumbled to find my balance each time at a loss. I dared not to picture the worst result, because to me, that was definitely not allowed to happen.  

Today, I can cast all these away from my mind. What a release!

I, still and must thank to my parents who have supported and trusted me through these years, no matter where I would be you are always my dearest.

I, need to thank to my dear friends for all your accompany here. I think over of you often, no matter you are beside me.

At last, I need to say to Moj Kochany, let us share this happiness, and this July you are going to be my company.

攀岩的困扰

攀岩,几个月前听说此名词的时候,还是觉得挺陌生,但一旦上了瘾之后,每周便要挑战一回,不然心里总觉得痒痒的。当然,为此我也付出了“惨痛”的代价,两只手被摩的全是老茧,和农民伯伯勤劳的双手不相上下,不过我也不指望十指纤白,反正在化学实验室,那双手是不会漂亮的!这且不算,在新春之前,我把手臂给拉伤了,居然连绳子也握不住了,连着几个晚上,半夜醒来,只觉手臂疼痛,敷了热水袋都无济于事。于是,我便乖乖的休假,而我的那些爬墙的狐朋狗友觉得我是小题大做,还坚持认为我不够强壮,该多锻炼才是!
 
当然,我想过了,如果要坚持这项运动,一些投资是必然的,这其中包括登山鞋,登山的装备。我又犹豫不决,要知道攀岩不是项“便宜”的运动,假如将来放弃,不就可惜了这些花费?于是,根据我朋友们的建议,该煽动kochany一起加入爬墙的行列。这样,我的投资才所值!经反复思量,针对我kochany热爱行走地面,恐惧垂直极限的事实,我选择了先恭维的策略。
 
于是,某天在MSN上,我告诉了他攀岩乐趣无穷,具有挑战性,综合了思维,意志,体能和平衡性。然后,我又说,你们波兰人手长脚长,身材好,最适合爬墙了。。。他若有所思,突然对着镜头,对我说:
 
“是的,如果一个波兰人和亚洲人同样身高,明显的亚洲人的腿会短一节,是这样。。”
 
我昏倒!这话怎能轮到他说去了?看来我得注意他近来在观察些什么!到最后,他做出结论,亲爱的,你比较适合打乒乓,而不是爬墙。。。
