Respect

白石惠:「本山女士她… 不是”腦瘤患者”,也不是”產生幻覺的患者”,她叫本山由希子。」
(from Code Blue)

“Mike, never refuse the bathroom to anyone,” Crystal said. “He might not be a customer, but everyone who walks in that door is a Guest.”
(from How Starbucks Saved My Life, pp. 79)

“Hey, Mike,” Kester said, “how are you doing?”
“Good,” I said, “I hope to do some more cleaning today.”
“No shit,” Kester said.
“No street talk in here,” Crystal said.


“There is a paper with our uncompromising principles on it… Read me the first one,” Crystal said.
I read, “To create a great work environment and treat each other with respect and dignity.”

(from How Starbucks Saved My Life, pp. 81-82)

Amtrak

October 31st, 2008 Phanix

去LA,搭的是 greyhound,回程則是在 Union Station 搭 Amtrak。其實原本都想搭飛機的,只是聽說從LA北上經過 San Jose 到達 Seattle 的這班 14 Coast Starlight 在沿途有著很美的景觀,所以就決定其中一趟路程搭 Amtrak

因為是長途的火車(從LA 到 Seattle 要花兩天的時間),所以上頭除了臥舖之外,當然也有餐車,一邊吃飯一邊欣賞沿途美景真是一大享受。 (L)

而在列車上也有景觀列車,特殊的車廂設計可以讓乘客一覽沿途風光,同時也有桌子可以讓乘客在此做自己的事情或飲食,也因此在吃完午餐之後我就一直留在那邊,根本沒有回到座位上去。 XD

喔,對了,火車沿途有時候會停下來,通常是為了等待其他列車通過,不過其中有一次居然是為了等待牛群通過,車上人員還下火車去指揮交通,這實在是太誇張了 =____=

世界奇妙物語 — 模擬結婚程式

October 25th, 2008 Phanix

如果說先前介紹的「48%的戀愛」是講述婚前戀愛的努力,那麼這一個故事就是來講述婚後也該努力下去。

劇中有句對話是這樣…
「男人啊,結婚了總是會變的。所以愛情維持在戀愛的階段最好。」
講出這句話當時的心情,應該是跟無敵珊寶妹中,孫無敵這個角色的一句台詞很類似吧?
「其實很久以前我也有過這一種,單純愛著一個人信任一個人的心情,可是現在我已經想不起來那是什麼感覺了」

結了婚不可否認地會有改變,但,還是該繼續努力的唄。

結婚與婚後的生活如果可以模擬,那麼,你/妳覺得自己的婚後生活會是什麼樣子?或許可以來看看「模擬結婚程式」。
