破事兒

早兩日睇左《出埃及記》隻 DVD。

吸引我去買呢隻碟既原因係佢個故事(廢話…買戲睇就係睇故事嫁喇)。戲入面男主角係一個當差多年的警察,而係一個機緣之下,佢走去查一單怪 case:有個偷窺犯話佢知呢個世界上有班女人計劃要殺曬d男人。而d女人之所以上廁所要咁耐,就係因為佢地係廁所入面商量殺人大計。咁個犯就話自己係偷入女廁去拍低女人d殺人計劃罪証。

=__=

好鐘意呢d有d無厘頭,啜核得黎又過癮,睇完有得諗下兼「加d想像力就可發一餐白日夢」既戲。:P 加上部戲d燈光呀,配樂呀等等都唔錯,明顯唔係普通既港產爛片。於是上網 search 上導演彭浩翔d料同睇下佢個 blog。發現佢今個 weekend 有新戲上,叫「破事兒」。

初初唔係好明咩叫「破事兒」。直至今日行過書局,見到彭浩翔原來出左本同名書。以為係電影小說之類既書,冇咩期望,只係拎上手隨便揭揭。點知原來係十幾篇的短篇小說,係收錄番彭浩翔多年前幫報紙雜誌寫的文章。

揭左幾頁就決定要買番屋企睇。二百頁唔夠,十八篇既短篇文,個零鐘一口氣睇曬。唔錯呀!唔少短篇都古靈精怪,個結局有d真係睇到想笑,有d又睇到嘆氣。最重要係一路讀,一路有d睇緊戲既感覺!

原來「破事兒」係彭浩翔一個 friend 既 blog 名。意思係一 d 小事:「塵世有幾許事可堪動地驚天,還不是去似微塵,所有種種,回頭再看,就那麼回事。愛慾生死,也不過是些破事兒。喜歡那份豁達大度,所以特借此為書名。」

之後上網睇下「破事兒」部戲的預告片。睇落亦都係由幾個短故事組成的,好似唔錯…不過我估我都係會等佢出碟先睇 :P

Choices

Should I kill myself, or have a cup of coffee? - Albert Camus.

Life is full of choices. I just started reading the book The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less. In the first few chapters, the author tries to show that nowadays we are facing more and more choices. And in some ways it is not a good thing. Some examples of choices could be Choosing How to Love, Choosing How to Pray, Choosing Who to Be etc. But one particular topic that I want to write about: Choosing How to Work. Because it is somehow related to a 是日金句 I posted a few days ago... 「一鳥在手,好過百鳥在林」

(At least) In our society we have the freedom to choose our jobs. Which led to a trend that we switch jobs quite (too) often. Most people don't work in the the same company for 10, 7 or maybe even 5 years. Is this kind of job mobility a good thing? Is working in the same company for long should be classified as 係出便撈唔掂?

When should we switch job? Where should we work? By thinking about these, are we wasting too much of our time and resources?

the catcher in the rye

just finished the book... as expected, blue as hell... and found i really resemble the main character... yellow, childish, like to day-dream...

hope i won't end up in an institution eventually...

Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be.

~J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
