UIUC Again

寫遊記的動力總是在出遊時最為高漲, 回家之後開始懶散. 就如同我一直很想將04年去UIUC的生活記事完整紀錄一樣, 一年多過去了, 還記得當時可怕的溫差, 好吃的意大利食物, 用功的學生, 美麗的校園, 還有打在我身上很痛的大雪. 記憶還很鮮明, 但遊記卻一直沒寫. 04年的遊記還沒完成, 06年的七月我卻又要去了, 相同的地點, 幾乎相同的時間, 這樣子我再寫04年的遊記還有意義嗎? 這一切的問題都是因為一個懶字, 真是糟糕的壞習慣.

和04年UIUC之行相同的還有, 各項讓我焦頭爛額的出國前準備事項. 機票, 住宿, 簽証, 沒一樣是沒意外發生的. 距離出國還有二十幾天, 機票卻還在候補中; 一個月的短期住宿, 本想找當地留學生的sublease, 不過總是不是太遠就是太貴; 簽証問題先是我忘了辦新護照, 後來卻是因為難得一見的美國國務院大當機, 所有簽証手續都delay了近十天. 仔細算了一下, 機票大概十天內會確定, 住宿跟UIUC那邊的助理聯絡上, 再一星期就會確定, 而簽証大概要等到近六月底才會確定. 一切都是這麼的趕, 但事實上其實我很早就開始準備, 這大概就是典型的計畫趕不上變化的例子.

[Aslyn] That's when I love you

[Aslyn] That's when I love you
-- album: How to deal

When you have to look away
When you don't have much to say
That's when I love you I love you.
Just that way

To hear you stumble when you speak
Or see you walk with two left feet
That's when I love you
I love you endlessly
And when you're mad cause you lost a game
Forget I'm waiting in the rain
Baby I love youI love you anyway
Cause here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do could change my mind
The more I learn the more I love
The more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you no matter what

So when you turn to hide your eyes
Cause the movie, it made you cry
That's when I love you
I love you a little more each time
And when you can't quite match your clothes
Or when you laugh at your own jokes
That's when I love youI love you more than you know
And when you forget that we had a date
Or that look that you give when you show up late
Baby I love youI love you anyway
Cause here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do could change my mind
The more I learn the more I love
The more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love youWhen I love you no matter what
That's when I love youWhen nothing baby
Nothing you do could change my mind
The more I learn the more i love
The more my heart can't get enough
Thats when I love you
When I love you
No matter whatNo matter what
