M:Hey...How is your day?W:My day,huh?You are coming back.Look.Look around you.What kind of home it is,small,even without a TV set but with so much work to do.I have to wash the dishes and clothes and do the damn-ass cleaning, keeping it a room but not a scrap heap filled with naughty kids. Laura was fighting with her little brother again, and the broken window was the consequence. But thanks god, you were having good time doing your peacefull job just now. Otherwise, welcome to hell, captain! You know what?That's just what I wanted.Damn it.M:Finish?Oh,in the name of the lord, could you just complain less about your easy life at home?When did you start (提高音量)becoming a voluble and silly housewife, bitching about her man at work?Huh, you little shrew...W:You shut up!You never try to understand me. What a terrible mistake!I should have said yes to John.And now I am living with a wreck!...

《超市夜未眠》『You can speed it up, you can slow it down, you can even freeze a moment. But you can't rewind time. You can't undo what it was done. 你可以让时间加速,也可以让它减慢,你甚至可以让它暂时停滞。 但是时光不能倒流。不可覆水能收。』 『Once upon a time, I wanted to know what love was. Love is there if you want it to be. You just have to see that it's wrapped in beauty and hidden away between the seconds of your life. If you don't stop for a minute,you might miss it. 很久以前,我就想知道爱是什麽。 只要相信,爱无处不在。 你会看到它的美含苞欲放,藏在你生命的瞬间里。 如果你不停下来,专心去留意它的存在,那麽很可能就会与之擦肩而过了。』 城市的生活节奏太快。我们常常忘了停下来好好看看身边的人和事。 然后心被现实蒙蔽了,变得冷漠起来。 那麽,就试著让自己停下来那麽一阵子吧。 哪怕只是5秒钟,仔细聆听一下这个世界想告诉我们什麽吧。 或许,那些我们曾忽略的细节会是我们原本该拥有的呢。 以时间为话题的作文,读书的时候都写了不少。 却永远只会写写而已。做到,好难。 年华正一点一滴地逝去。不想让它白白浪费掉,就珍惜每一分每一秒吧。 “活在当下”这个听了无数次的词,我们该让它兑现了。
