It's Saturday

I was watching Nigahiga's video, and I heard this song, Handle With Care by JRA. Very nice. =) There's another song by him that I love a lot too - By Chance (You & I). He got me sticked to my laptop, keep hitting the replay button.

Reading 'Eating Animals' by Jonathan Safran Foer now. There's this one line that got me thinking: 'If nothing matters, there's nothing to save.' His grandma was a war survivor, when during that period of time life was constant starvation while running and escaping. Not all made it. She herself doubted whether she could survive another day, when a kind-hearted farmer came to her rescue by giving her a piece of meat. She didn't take it. It was pork ,and she was Jew. So the grandson asked her:' Not even to save your life?', and that's her answer.

On a lighter note, here's another line from a book,《鲸鱼女孩,池塘男孩》by 蔡智恒 that I read a while back: '世界上最遥远的距离,就是课本在你面前,你却不知道答案在哪里。' ' The greatest distance in this world is when the textbook is right in front of you and you can't find the answer.' (during an open book test)











世界上最遥远的距离,莫过于我在你面前,你却对我不屑一顾。
