聽說製作人決定延到九月了喔。

也好，可能消息出來以後想懷舊想把握最後一次機會的遊客大爆滿，趁暑假旺季多賺一點錢回本也不錯。畢竟電影也拍了，前一陣子也（可能花了大錢）請兩位首演主角回鍋演出，差不多了。

I went to visit London for the first time last year before I went back to Taiwan. I've uploaded some of the pictures to my album.

Here's some peeks:

I haven't felt a real sense of security since I lived in England. Many stories of hate crime were told since the day new students arrived. Don't walking alone after dark, the senior warned, and avoid contact with teenagers. In a small town like this, people are friendly and nice in general. However, according to general experience shared by students studying in UK, teenagers love to make fun of and pick on Asian people. I've heard of stories of being thrown by stones, beating, and attacking. Last year, a senior who we all know got attacked by a group of young kids, right in front of our busiest bus station at four o'clock (a very busy time), with her kid beside her.

I always say I miss the life in the States mainly because of this. I'm not saying that all Americans treat people of different races fairly, but at least everything has to be politically correct on the surface, so it's not allowed to discriminate overtly. It's a huge thing to be accused of discrimination. Peace should be maintained.

Recently I discovered a new route to school, which is a shortcut from my place and my department building. I worked till five today, and I was taking this shortcut home because I bought many heavy groceries with me. However, this route cuts into the middle of a huge park, which has no crowds at this time because it's a Saturday. When I walked into the park I felt a bit uneasy, because I saw quite a lot teenagers playing with skateboards. Damn it, I think, I forgot it's not a weekday today. I should have chosen another route. Well, the kids seem to have fun, maybe I have nothing to worry about. So I simply walked faster. The groceries were heavy anyway. The sooner I could get home, the better.

由於近幾年開始多次在歐美搭乘長短程客機往返各地，深知搭機前心態調整的重要性。不像台灣或者其他亞洲國家，美國領土廣大幅原遼闊，有時候不搭飛機真的沒有辦法省時省力，因此搭飛機就像在台灣搭火車、長途客運一樣普遍。

是的，這就是重點：沒有人會在搭自強號或者國光號之前抱持著被隨車服務員從頭到尾服侍得舒舒服服的心態，認為想喝水就有水自動送到眼前；打開雞腿便當不想吃的話，可以臨時改換排骨便當。

當搭機已成為必要的交通方式時，僅剩的只有人與人相處之間的基本禮儀，而非眾多亞洲航空公司於廣告中強力宣傳放送的親切、體貼、無微不至的服務（抑或管家/僕人的「服侍」）態度。經過幾次飛行之後，度過了那種「千載難逢」、「一生僅有」、「百聞不如一見」的興奮與緊張感，我也開始認清這一點，讓自己習慣除了上下機時的微笑與招呼問候語之外，漸漸牢記「空服員願意幫我多做一些、答應我的要求或者解決我的問題」都是「旅途中的好運氣」。面對一個毫不相識的陌生人，怎麼有理由像使喚僕從一般，任意吆喝他替自己做這個做那個？尤其在英國這個重視禮儀的國度，話語用詞一不小心就可能讓他人覺得自己沒有禮貌而引起反感，與服務業打交道的時候更是沒辦法拿美國那套「顧客至上」來用。

由於才剛回台沒幾天，晚上一直沒睡好，直到禮拜一才睡了一場比較長而完整的好覺。只是白天為了調時差到處跑來跑去之外還穿少少去喝喜酒，下午就開始不對勁了。

頭昏腦脹、眼睛發熱、喉嚨腫痛外加鼻水直流，整個人呈現慢動作的幽靈閒晃狀態.......

晚上到了十一點多，為了查診所的資料，才發現今天禮拜一是24號啊！
