彼方的神庙
1
旅馆前台左侧的墙上挂着一张酒店外观照片。头次住这家酒店,也是第一次看到这张照片。网上订房时心里有事,房间都是随便选的,没在旅店网站上看它的图片。可现在墙上这张照片却让我感到一丝诡异的熟悉,好像曾在哪儿见过。心底虽感觉那大概是错觉,可还是不能于心释然……点击文章标题👆阅读全文 ->
Temple on the Farside
1 On the side wall of the reception desk hung a framed photo of the hotel’s exterior. I was sure it was the first time I had seen it; I had booked the room without much browsing on the site. Yet something about the image rang with an eerie familiarity, as if I had encounteredContinueContinue reading “Temple on the Farside”

如是我闻
莎士比亚这首诗,你要是从来没有读过,去找来读一下;你要是从来没有听人朗诵过,一定要点击一下下面这个录像,听一下。你要是听不懂,那就去学习,学到你能听懂为止。 The Incredible Harriet Walter 我觉得 Harriet Walter 的朗诵,属于顶级的了吧。终究是英国诗,还是只有英国人会念。 朗诵人的简介:Dame Harriet Mary Walter is an English actress. She is the receiver of an Olivier Award and nominations for a Tony Award, five Emmy Awards, and a Screen Actors Guild Award. In 2011, Walter was appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire forContinueContinue reading “如是我闻”
指名道姓
我们公司刚雇了一个项目经理,名字叫做 “Craig Lose”。每次一路过他的办公桌,看见他的名字,心里就纳闷:“为什么好端端的,非要把自家叫做 “要输”;就不会叫个 “要赢” 吗?”

Dina in the Rain
“Le Baiser” de Niképhoros Lytras (1832-1904) 1 In the evening Dina Papádopoulou came. She wore a simple wrap dress, a pair of barely-there heels, and carried a small foldable umbrella in her hand. Earlier in the day we had talked about going for a walk — to the small shopping area near the college campus,ContinueContinue reading “Dina in the Rain”
They Called Me Sleeping Beauty

Still dazed, I sat up on the edge of the bed, hands on my knees. The floor was cool beneathContinueContinue reading “They Called Me Sleeping Beauty”

The inspiration for this post came from a lab analyst’s comment I recently saw: “Carryover did not meet criteria (28% carryover). Plate was stored in AB-123-4567 to be ran on different system.” Now, this kid’s name is not Wang Xiao Qu or Nikolai Petrov, but your ordinary John J. Smith, native-born, raised on cheeseburgers andContinueContinue reading “Everything’s Fine Until You Go to School”
