Sigh

I heard from somewhere about that RJ boy.

When I talked to Wang Yue, we all agreed that, though thousands of people died everyday, it is different to know someone around you died.

It is not like some case study for GP essay, it is not some newspaper articles that you can just read and say, "Another one ah". He is from RJ, that makes the whole thing so different. Our classroom was facing that building, yet I never felt death is so near like what I feel now.

He used to live in the environment once I have lived in; he must have eaten in the canteen where I spent most of the recesses; he must have walked along the corridors like all of us did many times a day and many days a week; he must have worn the white uniform like all the guys did everyday: I cannot imagine how his uniform was stained with the dark red liquid from inside himself. At the moment he jumped down, did he ever feel scared? or relieved?

I felt truely sad for his parents.

People have asked me why my name is so damn bloody hard to pronounce, I would say it's not my problem. Just in case anyone who is interested to find out what the name actually means, here it is:

萱 pronounces as xuan, is the flower called daylily pictured above;

仲 pronounces as zhong, means I am the second child in the family

弦弦诉人意,弓弓道世情

可以高贵,可以平凡
可以不问英雄出处
可以痴情风流的二胡
一弦可以大江东去
一弦可以月游西湖
一曲未了竟有琴弦启开江南
让俏丽的姑娘
用浓浓的茉莉花语
从红袖里伸出酥手
把一个河山香透

My Erhu, My Forever Love
