Happy New Year 2012 !!!

時間過得好快，柔伊已經一歲五個月大，我們搬到新家也一年多。

自從有了寶寶，生活重心幾乎都放在小孩身上，要做任何事情前，都要先考慮到寶寶，跟以前自由自在的兩人世界非常不同，不過多了寶寶的生活倒也增添了不少樂趣，看著這小小生命在四周活力十足的繞來繞去、探索這個世界，實在很難想像...這小傢伙才到這世間一年多而已。

不知不覺話題又圍繞著寶寶轉，我想這是為人父母的通病吧!!!回歸正題，這篇的目的一如標題和上面的卡片所示，特地向疏於聯繫的親朋好友們獻上誠摯的祝福~耶誕快樂!!!2012新年快樂!!!
(有沒有很懷念?很久沒收到我們的賀卡了吧^^)

How time flies. Our little Zoe is 1Y5M old. Besides, we have lived in Dali more than one year.

Since we have Zoe, our life almost ficus on her. Before we do anthing, she is our first concern. It's totally different from the life we usde to have. However, having a child brings us a lot of pleasure and amusement. When looking at her going around you, it's really difficult to image that this little creature just arrived in the world for 1 year and 5 months.

Let's get back to the main subject of this article. Obviously, as the title said, wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

(Have you miss our greeting card? It's been a long time we didn't make it since we have a baby.)

「為什麼耶誕樹上面掛的是衣架呀?」
「因為衣架是我們家柔伊最喜歡的玩具之一了!!!」

21/07/2010-Gen Baby Born!!!

八月二十日-小根妹滿月囉!!!

Happy one month old Birthday Zoe!!!

小根妹從小就是個非常貼心的孩子，這該怎麼說呢？就從產房說起吧～

21日半夜，根根打給青媽媽：「進產房要生了!!」；
青媽媽剛掛下電話，馬上電話又響起：「生了!是女生!」

速度之快令青不敢想像，只記得走進產房，才坐上生產臺，醫師緊急趕到後，陣痛一來，依照護士指令「吸氣、憋氣、抬頭往下看」重複三次後，小根妹就「噗」出來了...

你說她貼不貼心呢？

Gen Baby is a very sweet kid. You must ask me Why do I have this thought? It's not a long story. Let's go back to the delivery scene.

It was 21st of July. At midnight, Pigen called Mama Piching, "Piching is in the delivery room."
Mama Piching just hung up. The phone rang again. "We get a girl!!!"

It was incredible fast for Piching. She just remembered that she walked into the delivery room, sat on the chair and waited for the Doctor. When her labor pains started, she followed the nurse's instruction, "Breathe, hold breath, raise up your head and look down." In a minute, Gen Baby was born!!!

Gen baby is so sweet, isn't she?

2010皮革婚‧Leather Wedding

結婚第一年叫做紙婚，比喻最初結合薄如紙般不堅固；第三年叫皮革婚，是表示開始有點韌性。

我和根根或許因為也認識近十二年，所以對於結婚韌性的感覺差異不大...每多一年，只會驚呼：「哇！我們認識XX年了耶！」就像是面對老朋友一樣的感覺。

只要有這個人在旁邊就可以覺得很安心，不管是不是在各做各的事情；偶爾無意義地呼喊對方的小名，原本焦躁的心情或許就放鬆了。我常覺得能夠有個好朋友般的另一半，真是我的福氣。

結婚的第一個年頭，發現了根根具有治癒的新功能，當時我們待在高緯度的英國Sheffield，寒冷的氣候常讓我的偏頭痛發作，當痛的失眠時，只要根根用他的大手蓋著頭痛的位置，一下子功夫，頭就不痛了，然後我也能安然地睡著，從此他的大手有了新封號「Magic Hand」。

回到台灣後，還是常仰賴「Magic Hand」，直到有了小根妹後，過去易冷、常感冒的身體反而越來越壯，從懷孕到現在連一點小感冒都沒有發生過，她和根根一樣帶給了我極大的能量；很多事情觀點也因為她而有所改變，甚至變得不在乎，全世界似乎只剩下她的事情最重要了，或許這也是所有準父母的心情寫照吧！

「小根妹如果長得像我一定很漂亮。」根根說
「..........................」我無言

2010 新年快樂

揮別牛年、邁向虎年...大根和小青也將離開嘉義，往人生的下一個階段前進，非常謝謝大家的照顧，祝各位新年快樂。

"Goodbye, the Bull year!!"
"Hello, the Tiger year!!"
Pigen and Piching are going to leave Chiayi and step to next stage of their life. They deeply appreciate everyone's help.
Wish you Happy the Chinese New Year!!!!

Harry & Peir Peir

(這是確定版的喜帖插圖)

Harry & Peir Peir經過長期抗戰後，終於結婚了...

(這是第一版的喜帖封面插圖)

(這是第一版的喜帖內頁插圖)

由於一連串事件，使的事情發生的匆促，所以於八月舉行結婚儀式後，訂於九月底補辦喜宴。朋友們獲得消息時，都很替他們感到開心萬分，熬了這樣久，堅持終於獲得祝福。

接下來，新娘的捧花會落到誰手裡呢？

08/08/2009-父親節

從就學的記憶開始，每一年，總是有母親節活動的影子，從發塑膠康乃馨花給學子們帶回家...到親手做的心意：康乃馨紙花、卡片...等等，課本上也會有母親節意義的由來。相較之下，父親節總是默默地來、悄悄地走...偶爾伴隨著商業活動提醒一下...「喔～父親節要到囉？」

年紀稍長的某年八月...我們決定買個禮物送給辛苦打拼事業的帥爸。一向羨慕其它人擁有豐沃零用金的我們，只能從早餐費省下來的三塊、五塊，點點滴滴存下一些錢。在有限的預算下，買什麼好呢？搭乘公車到當年大名鼎鼎的東帝士百貨觀看，想著帥爸究竟缺什麼？

「我說，帥爸總是沒有時間觀念，作息日夜顛倒...那買個鬧鐘給他好了...」
「好呀！這主意不錯...那要買怎樣的呢？」

百貨架子上擺滿了各式鐘的產品，有的規規矩矩、有的造型奇特...東挑西檢、考慮預算、功能性、外觀...眼前出現了一個紅色西式馬桶座造型的塑膠時鐘!!!

「你們看這個怎樣？很符合帥爸吧！」
「是呀！他一天到晚跑廁所...」

價格也是我們負擔的起的，於是我們就買了它...但卻完全忘記了「鬧鈴」功能...由此可知，產品造型是會迷惑消費者的(外觀＞功能)。

不過，這個馬桶造型的時鐘還有另一個附加價值，就是它可以掀開放零錢的！！！
(你以為「放零錢」可以取代「鬧鈴」功能嗎？！)

說起來，帥爸腸胃不好、常跑廁所的印象影響了我們很多事情，例如：健康教育試題：
( ) 請問人一天正常排便幾次？ 1.一次 2.兩次 3.三次 4.三次以上。

寫試卷時，想起帥爸的習慣...嗯...答案應該是三次吧....於是填了3！！！

--------------------------------
「我想...全班只有你一個人填1以外的答案吧=.=」

06/06/2009-10th Anniversary

歷史上的每一天，在不同人身上就有不同的意義。

六月六日，是陳綺貞、是小學好友P，是對愛情一針見血R的生日...
也是瓦斯心《The Gas Heart》首次搬上舞台的日子...

【青的回憶】

十年前的今天，看戲回學校後，根一直在系館晃來晃去...一直問青燈光設計的作業要做到什麼時候？問到後來，讓青有點煩，乾脆放下功課，看這個學長到底要做什麼，然後回宿舍梳洗休息去。

沒想到，走到系館外，迎面而來的是一束「不怎麼好看的鮮花」，好像是託學姐Y買的...
「...經過我的思考，我覺得我應該給你一個名份...不能這樣曖昧不清下去...當我女朋友好嗎？」
「...但...我還沒準備好...我沒有把握可以做好你的女朋友...」
「不...相信我的眼光...我認為你就是我要的老婆...所以.......」
「...那請問你是看上我哪些優點，並且覺得我適合？」
「...像是勤勞呀........吃苦呀............................認真呀....」
經過根一個多小時的說服，兩人終於達成共識正式開始交往。

當時同學G經過，問兩人在做什麼...青調皮說幫根送花給室友...沒想到G竟然深信不疑...還祝福根能夠成功。

天空飄著雨...青撐著傘、拿著「不怎麼好看的鮮花」走回宿舍去，那晚的震撼...竟然讓她在走進宿舍大樓時，忘記收起傘來，一路撐到房間。

很要好的室友S興奮的聽見這個消息，雀躍地想知道整個來龍去脈...
「@@...聽起來好像在選女傭喔...」
然後順手把那束「不怎麼好看的鮮花」拿去拆解...打算晾在陽台上...做成乾燥花...

從此以後，「不怎麼好看的鮮花」再也沒有出現在兩人世界裡。

----------------------------------------------------

「我的一世英名都被你毀了...當初好像是妳追我的...」
「是嗎？我想整個北藝大的證人不少喔！首先傳喚證人Y...」
「...那為什麼十週年是用黑色的....」
「喔！自從開始交往後，我覺得人生就像是黑白講的一樣...任你說」

20/05/2009-布婚‧不婚

不婚到布婚...我們還是昏了...

祕密結婚到現在將邁入第三年，這段期間...很多親人、朋友也都輾轉知道...或猜到...我們結婚了...沒有浪漫的求婚、沒有風光的婚禮、沒有盛大的喜宴、沒有夢幻的婚紗照...但似乎...大家好像對於沒有接到我們的紅色炸彈感到很失望一樣...所以就在所謂的「布婚」紀念日這一天，讓我們的肉麻炸一下吧～～～

去年的紙婚紀念日是在北威爾斯的神聖頭度過，那是北威爾斯火車路線可抵達的最後一站，安格爾西島上的這個小鎮很純樸、不觀光，卻有個讓人驚豔的聖錫比教堂，其建材岩塊真的漂亮到無話可說。

今年的布婚紀念日，哪裡也不去...獻給各位的是遲來的婚紗照...(你一定說：哪裡有婚紗呀？)哈...各位就將就一點吧...夢幻風格一點都不適合我們啦...

這些沒有婚紗的「婚紗照」，是上個月跟朋友去土溝玩時，朋友臨時起意說：「補拍一下吧！」而來的。

Pigen & Piching decided not to marry but be together forever before they married. Nevertheless, they still married two years ago just because it's convenient to apply a long term Visa. It sounds like a joke but it's the truth. Pigen and Piching did get 20 months. The price is Piching loses her freedom forever.

No romantic proposal...no impressive wedding...no splendid party...no fairytale photos...when families and friends got the news...they all look disappointed that they didn't have the chance to send Pigen and Piching their best wishes via gifts or money... and now it reach the third year. To make up for this under table wedding, Pigen and Piching would like to share their pleasure of cotton wedding with you...don't be scared away bytheir sweet photos...haha

Last year, Pigen and Piching spent their Paper wedding on Holyhead, North Wales. It is the last stop where the train can reach. The town in island of Anglessey is not a popular tourist attraction. However, there's a surprising church called St. Cybi with beautiful stone.

This year, Pigen and Piching didn't go to anywhere...but share their late wedding photos with you...You may feel confused where's the bridal veil...why you can't see any formal dress...haha...because all photos were taken unexpectedly...just friends suggested it...By the way...the fairytale style dress doesn't suit Pigen and Piching.

They said, we didn't have any wedding photos...let's make up for it...

「Would you like to marry me?」「 Can I say no?」

Don't pretend you are an affectionate man.

Two fools stand in front of the "Xi" wall.

Two fools try to imitate characters of I & Y.

-----------------------------------------------------
「十週年紀念日也快到了耶...」
「天呀～我們認識快十年囉？」
「不...認識快十一年了...但這個日子是某個重要的十年...」
-----------------------------------------------------
「Our 10th anniversary is approaching...」
「My goodness!!!! Have we known each other for 10 years?」
「No...we have known each other for 11 years...but the 10th anniversary is another milestone for ten years...」

06/02/2009-信仰

那一晚，看著爐子裡燃燒的火焰，只有好美兩個字來形容。

過年前，跟小老闆出差回園區時，看見大門上斜斜貼了一張符，小老闆很仔細的解釋說這是神明過境用的，貼怎樣是怎樣、貼哪樣又是哪樣...但完全沒進到我腦袋瓜子裡(我到現在還是搞不清楚)...時間一溜...過完年...迓媽祖到香藝不知不覺間就來臨了...也沒想到會看到全場，因此沒有事先跟P根借單眼，只好讓我最愛的二手老F100上場(沒有防手震、加上年紀大感光越來越不敏銳，不適合夜間拍攝)，果然，全場只有這張火是最令人滿意的，不過，F100還是我的最愛。

第一次，大概是三點左右，鞭炮聲霹哩啪啦響，對面的虹小姐大聲呼喊我的名字：「快！快！來了！」很興奮的跑到庭園餐廳前，等了一會兒...還是沒來；回辦公室後，大概五點多時，又聽到鞭炮聲霹哩啪啦響，這次換小老闆興奮的衝下去，但還是什麼都沒有。心想連瞄一眼的機會都等不到了...下班時間剛跨出前腳一步...馬上被文化館外的眾姊妹們叫住：你!!!!!別想落跑!!!!!!大哥來電交代，全體人員都要留下來...@@果然媽祖大顯神威，讓大家都要一定接受她的庇佑...

叔叔一直說我一定要去「過神轎」，如此才能保佑生子，最好生雙胞胎，一男一女恰恰好@@當大家虔誠排隊要「過神轎」時，我只想捕捉這個畫面。原本無緣「過神轎」的我，因為叔叔的關係，當時辰到，要起轎時，趕緊拉我過去並通融當最後一名爬過去了。最感人的是，當神轎離開時，叔叔拼命的捉著他的女兒衝過去讓神轎經過，可見他惜女之情。

一睹在雜誌、網路上常見的報馬仔，內心有種說不出的興奮，喜歡那個裝扮的味道。當他離開時，大哥趕緊過去扯下繫在報馬仔腰旁的紅線，一堆未婚男女蜂擁而至搶奪，最妙的是，大哥雙手一攤表沒有了，但其實他卻偷藏了一些在口袋裡......

這樣的景象離我已經很遙遠了，小時候只知道跟著大人四處跑，眼中只有燈光閃閃的電子花車、戲臺後的演員扮裝及布袋戲棚子下—爬吊鷹架的童年記憶。

我好像是無神論者，不過我有信仰，在我內心裡的神是沒有形體、無所不在的。「...人的靈魂是唯一存在的神...」John Dee如是說。

大拜拜時，我還是問了祂幾個問題，希望祂能給我指引...幾天的夢境空白後，不同的人在不同的夢裡告訴我一些事情...雖然堅定了我的心、但我還是做了選擇。

月圓人團圓，就是要一起！

分別的Boris熊、P根豬與P青豬打算獨自賞月、享用佳餚時，卻發覺好像少了點什麼，而眼前的滿月竟然缺了個角。

意外地，三人同時都發現手中的月餅與眼前看到缺角形狀符合，於是三人都急忙衝往月亮之地，看是否能夠補救月亮的缺角，彼此都沒想到大家都懷抱著同樣心情，在此相遇了。

三人手中的月餅擺放在一起時，竟然拼湊出團圓兩字，頓時，月亮的缺角也不見了。三人很開心能夠遇見彼此，最後在滿月下一起享受手中的月餅。

祝大家中秋節快樂。

下載我的第一個FLASH作品(有音樂喔)

Be together forever!

Boris, Pigen and Piching were separated. In Mid-Autumn Festival, they decided to enjoy the glorious full moon and delicious dish alone.

However, when they did it, each of them felt something wrong in their heart. The food tasted not delicious and strangely, the moon lost a piece. It was not full anymore.

Coincidentally, each of them found that their moon cake's shape happened to match the shape of the lost piece. Thus, Boris ran to the moon with his moon cake and tried to use his cake to patch the moon. Also, Piching hurried on the moon with her moon cake and use her cake to repair the moon. Pigen flew to the moon with his moon cake and use his cake to fix the moon.

When they met each other under the moon, they felt pleasantly surprised. When they put their moon cakes together. It were pieced up two Chinese characters "tuan yuan". It meant REUNION. The moon became full again.

Three of them were happy to see each other and enjoy the moon cake together under the full moon.

Wish you a Happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

25 Sep. 2007 @ Mid-Autumn Festival

[Please click the above image.]

No moon cakes, no chafing dish, no family reunion dinner....
but steamed bunes and bright moon.

It was a rainy and cold day, the window curtains were closed tightly.
When the night fell,
Pigen and Piching thought they couldn't see the moon on this day.
It should be raining or cloudy outside.
Just like their mood, they were homesick and missed their family.

Suddenly, Piching said, "See!!! It's the bright Moon," after her curious to check.
Pigen felt very excited when he heard the news.
Then he took the camera and went outside to shoot the moon with Piching.

The chill of autumn was unendurable.
Pigen and Piching couldn't help but think of the temperature in winter.

[the end.]
