小薇的象牙塔

      终于终于下班了，对于下班我从来没有这么期待过，好累啊！坚持了两周没有午觉的日子，今天是最后一根稻草。可能是因为知道今天是Cashl服务周承诺5个工作日内传递文献的最后一天吧，一场硬仗打到最后，身心终于全然地溃乏了，眼结膜充血外加感冒和上火。

      今天看了sogg同学的文章《即使郁闷也要有娱乐精神》，突然发现怎么最近这么多人在思考这样的问题。有一句话说得很好，“人过得不快乐，就开始思考真理。”看来无论是对于情场职场得意不得意的人，快乐永远是一视同仁的。了解这一点让我很安慰，起码我很少思考真理。

      This evening, I met two of my former classmates at the University gate by accident. Long time no see, We went for supper and had a chat with each other. During our conversation, we recalled many many intimate friends, and many many funny things happened these days.

Promises Don't Come Easy

歌手：Caron Nightingale     专辑：创世纪原声

I should have known all along
there was something wrong
I just never read between the lines
Then I woke up one day
and found you on your way
Leaving nothing but my heart behind

What can I do to make it up to you
Promises don't come easy
But tell me if there's a way
to bring you back home to stay
Well I'd promises anything to you

I've been walkin' around
with my head hanging down
Wondrin' what I'm gonna do
Cause when you walked out that door
I knew I needed you more
Than to take a chance on losing you

What can I do to make it up to you
Promises don't come easy
You know I've made up my mind
to make it work this time
That's the promise that I give to you

You never thought I loved you
I guess you never thought I cared
I was just too proud to say it out loud
Now I know
to let my feelings go (so tell me)

What can I do to make it up to you
Promises don't come easy
You know I've made up my mind
to make it work this time
That's the promise I can give to you
What can I do to make it up to you

      还有11天就除夕了，竟然每天都是这么暖洋洋的日子。即使在厦门，这样的天气都是很少见的。天天有人问几号回家？票买了没？答曰：票很难买。其实心底恐怕早已恋上了这样的暖冬，压根儿不想花心力去买票。这样的好日子，过一日当赚一日。

      一年一度的厦门国际马拉松在下周六即将举行了。这两周都没有去操场练习，不知道能不能一口气跑完十公里。今天在下雨，又担心这样的天气会不会持续到下周。

      跑马拉松蛮好玩的。因为不是专业选手，对自己没有要求，因而没有压力。可以在跑步的时候观赏沿路的风景，看看有没有美女帅哥加油鼓劲，看到有老人或小孩在跑会心生佩服，想想自己老的时候还有没有这样的体力。会观察身边的人跑步的时候血脉贲张，肌肉勃发。还有计时车、航拍直升机、警察、喇叭、播音员等等。非常热闹壮观。跑上几个小时也不会觉得累。

      我们图书馆有一帮的马拉松爱好者，早早的去医院体检报名，担心自己血压太高或太低，心电图会不会有问题影响参赛等。现在所有的体检全部结束，也领到了计时芯片，就等着修养身心，适度锻炼，快快乐乐地参加比赛了。我觉得马拉松对于厦门人来说已经不是竞技比赛了，而是一次活动锻炼地机会。

      马拉松官方网站上说：“厦门优美的环境和道路条件符合马拉松赛的要求。厦门市政道路宽敞，地势平坦，道路两侧绿化带宽阔，不仅符合比赛要求，也便于观众观看比赛，运动员与观众具有良好的互动性。厦门国际马拉松赛大部分的赛道是在沿海边的环岛路上，其沿海风光赛道优美如画、依山傍海，更有厦门二十名景中的八大名景点缀其间，被称为世界上最美丽的赛道之一。”

      下周我们就可以在世界最美丽的赛道上纵横驰骋了，哦～耶～哦～耶～
