吃完了饭,说要活的健康点。就出门走走。看到。。。

amsterdam周末小游



周末和彦晶约好去看画展开幕。整个画展就一张专门拍裸体的大师专门受邀这个活动而制作的照片,一张悬置在河道上面的照片,一张看上去就像很多裸体女人悬浮在河道上面的照片。

可惜,拍了照片也录了影,(开幕式等了很久,不过还算蛮有意思)却在马德里看斗牛的时候由于内存一时不够,愚蠢地随手的删掉了。留下少量的照片,给大家看个意思。

看完画展,城市里面乱走,随手拍了amsterdam都市里面的景色。

每天都有新鲜的事:奇怪的大蒜

在著名的超级便宜的德国品牌超市里面看到了这样的大蒜,也不是很贵,所以买回来一试。

这个大蒜(如图所示)不是一瓣一瓣的,是整颗的,所以省去了一颗颗剥皮的麻烦。哈哈。

每天经过的Sloterdijk




我现在上班的途中总是要经过这个车站Sloterdijk。喜欢这个明亮的Metro站台。很喜欢整个车站的设计。

最后2张是车站附近的metro或是火车的桥墩。(桥墩的样子本来就有够古怪,有太阳时候的光影斑驳,就像立体主义的绘画。)

再发一些amsterdam的图片吧,我的所见

我家附近的房子被拆迁了,好几排的还不错的公寓房子,住满了人,就这么被拆迁了。为的是造更高档的商品房。(附近的居民都收到了预告广告)连续几个月的行动,房子变成了混凝土碎块,最后碎块也被车走,平地上长起了野草。原先住在里面的人还回来,在曾经是他们房子的地方照相留念。也是有意思的照片呢。

amsterdam的水上世界


amsterdam是著名的水城。从城市中心穿过的ij河的北面每个月的月初有一个很大的跳蚤市场。听了同事的介绍,想去看看。虽然最后没有看成跳蚤市场(临时收到电话邀请,请我去参加海牙的市政厅慈善晚宴)。但是免费的游览了ij河,还是蛮长见识的。嘿嘿。

阿姆斯特丹的美丽的一面大概就属,夏天的傍晚,在安静的河道边上,散步,看天边的云彩。

京剧王子复仇记来海牙演出

服装在整烫衣服。

荷兰的音响师和中国的音响师共同合作。

服装展示全手工制作的衣服。每一朵花,每根线都是手工绣成的。

他自豪自己的作品。当被问及这些服装值多少钱时,他只是笑笑。

这就是带翎子的头饰。得小心翼翼地用手梳理,轻手轻脚地放好。

武生背后插的旗子。

采排-或是行话,走台。

向大家展示如何化妆。演员们都必须自己化妆,化妆师很少帮忙动手。

演出前的workshop,来了很多的人,一批又一批。

主角王子教大家唱京剧,荷兰人唱的认真而专心。

快开场了,剧院里面坐满了人。900张票子全卖完了。

海牙副市长,海牙唐人街主席的讲话,还有中国音乐专家做的细心的讲解,让观众充满了期待,并更好的体会京剧。

演出很成功。换来全场观众的不断鼓掌。

演出后,市长上前表示京剧院来此演出为海牙市文化多元化做出贡献。中国大使馆也表示感谢。

忙,就一个字

现代人的生活就一个字“忙”吗?

自从我有了现在这份工作,我就不由自主忙了起来。上班从8点半出门,9点上班,5-6点下班,6点半到家,做饭,吃饭,7点半,看个电视,上个网,联系一下早就答应了的京剧演出的事情,看看钟,就已经半夜了。

这个时候,发现:碗还没洗,摊在那里的东西没理,税务单没填,家里乱七八糟的(不知多久没理,灰有多厚),想看的书没看,下载的电影,电视剧没看,没有去健身房,没有散步,想做的皮肤护理没做(不知多久没做过了,皮肤过敏,粗糙,黑斑。。。该有的都有了)

什么放松,享受精致的生活,可口美味的饭菜,全都丢到爪哇国去了。就是因为有了这份工作。但是没有这份工作,就没有钱,没有成就感,每天呆在家里,也不是个事儿。哎。

3月27日面试回来的感想

今天去面试,上午是一个中介介绍的一份工作,下午是一个公益组织。

这都不是我最理想的工作。我最想要得是什么虽然我不是最清楚。但是这些不是我想要的,只是暂时的。但是有的时候,随机的,暂时的动作后面会隐藏着一些看不见的机会。为了不要让自己失去这些机会,我不得不好好考虑。

太阳照在身上真得很舒服。觉得自己就喜欢这样的悠闲。但是有的时候忙一下,忙中有闲,你才能感受到生活的真味吧。

水斗里的小苗

今天洗碗的时候,突然之间看到水斗下水的地方钻出来一支小苗。哈,是不是我在洗豆芽的时候,溜出去的小豆子在这里扎根了?不过可以见得的是,我的水斗有够脏的。不过,现在还是让它开心健康地长在那里吧。

逃避比做错决定还要更糟

这是花样少年少女里面一个叫元秋叶的人讲的台词。听听还蛮有道理的,纪录一下。
花样呢,是我去上海以后,我妹叫我看的一部台剧。其实剧情一般啦,但是就是看看里面的俊男和一些搞笑的场面,就会让人欲罢不能。

rainy day with music

I was not prepared today is a rainy day as yesterday is a such nice sunny day.

I have an video conference in Haarlem this morning, so I have to be on the way early. I did not bring an umbrella with me. When the time I was walking on the way to metro, the rain became bigger, it is too late.

I have always a hat with me, it is useful now, as you know. I have my ipod with me, it is useful for the rainy day too. I played shuffled music. Most of the songs I have are a bit blue. Blue, not sad. Blue, good for this kind of rainy weather. Not so dark, not so desperate or depressed...but a bit grey, a bit disorderly, a bit thoughtful.

from yesterday - sunny day

It is really nice weather today. Clear sky, blue with white clouds, sunshine all the time. Although it is still cold, people are more willing to be outside.

I can not wait, I try to finish the things on hand, though I have not much things to do, but when you have to leave, you realise there are plenty small things behind, have not be finished. But anyway, I can do that later.

After I have been walking on the street for...5 minutes, I suddenly remember I have NOT brought my camera! What a mistake! of course I am telling myself: just enjoy, without it. :)

It is very warm to walk under the sun. It brings you very nice mood. I brought my ipod nano, listen the music I like on the way to somewhere (I have no aim). Can life better than that?

I walk, walk, walk...passing by the flower shop, the bakery, cafe. I look at the flowers, the interiors of the shops, I did not stop. I am walking quickly when I am under the shadow, am walking slowly under the sun. I stop a bit when I walk though a bridge to check out the birds on the river. I see cycling kids doesn't want to go home; I see druggie sitting under the sun; I see people are playing, chatting outside...

Then I had my trip around, I also need to go home. I have quickly done my shopping on the opposite of street, saw some polices are checking people around (maybe they are checking the identities?). For avoiding any unnecessary trouble, (I only bring my old expired ID card with me) I quickly walking home.

just a test

Suddenly remeber all the update can be delivered to the email addresses I want, so had a try. (I thought it can removed afterwards, but it did not work.) ...

sunny day, good mood, walk around

After living in the NL for 6 years, I realise I behave like a Dutch sometimes: when there is a bit sun shine, I am so excited and must go out to walk, to sit, to enjoy the good weather, to catch the good time.

It is difficult to explain this speechless feeling to a Chinese person. They never lack of sun.

Right now, I am sitting behind the window, but under the sun, listen the music from my ipod, how can I explain the happiness I have this moment!

a picture just received from a friend, and it is quiet beautiful sunset now on the sky

Just received this beautiful poem and picture from a friend, my mood is very good. And I also see the weather again changed to a beautiful sky. The sky becomes darker and quiet...One day is gone...
"Who am I today?" I ask..And I wonder if I even know.I know the past has shaped me now,Even though the past was long ago.The little moments form a blur,The times both happy and sad,All the people I once knew,And the things I used to have.They all helped me to becomeWhere, what and who I am now,Because everything has influenced me,I'm not sure exactly how.But I'm thankful for the memories,Even of the people I've never really met,For the people I miss, the people I love,And even the people I'd like to forget.
For these memories have helped me grow,They've made me calm, yet strong,And now there's a story to my life,That they've been writing all along.
So, thank you for the memories.Without them, I don't know who I'd be -Because somewhere among these memoriesAre the things that define me.~~~

let's have a try with photos - how to make smashed potato

As I see the icon of uploading the pictures, you know me, I have to try it...Hmmm....hehe~~
Here I go to my computer, although it is attacking by unknown virus, luckly I can still open my computer and find something. I found some pictures when we make smashed potato. I told Wolfgang that I feel the taste of smashed potato from the package from the supermarket is not good. He said he feel the same, so we decide we should make it by ourselve, to taste the real taste.

Then, here we go. I use the photos to say it:


First, you need to boil it, water covers the peeled potato, and cook, cook, for very long time. You need to try it time to time to check if the potato babies are soft enough.


Then, after cooked, take out all the water. First smash them with this tool- a German pasta maker. It likes big garlic smasher. This time, it is used for smash the potatos.


This is how the potatos look like after the first smash.


Take a pot, put some milk in, cook them until boil a bit.

Use the machine now to smash the potatos, add a bit milk. little bit by little bit. Until all the milk in into the potatos. Stir it, stir, and stir...

Until it looks like this...smooth and fine.


Then you can season it.



How this looks like on the table...hahaha...delicious!
I knew after you saw my post, you will want to make it by yourself, it is simple and easy, right? Enjoy it!
