    今天星期一 | 芝加哥, 美国中部广袤大地上的一颗明珠

    周末总是令人疲惫的。周六看了场戏,戏剧学院的年轻学生排的。然后我室友在家开了个clown costume party, 很好玩,除此之外似乎一直宅着。
     
    今天早上很晚才起来,发现用了八年的床单终于磨散了。来美国后,因为衣服可以烘干,我就日复一日的坚持蹂躏同一块印着“北医学生公寓”的蓝色格子床单,于是测出了这种单子的预期寿命。和我一起拿到这种床单的大学同学多也拿到了他们博士学位,在美国都可以算MD/PhD行走江湖了。八年前我们住进的五号楼,貌似是医学院校园里最新的建筑:楼道像宾馆,房间里的新家具需要除味,而这一套床上用品据说像病房里用的。今天我忽然好奇学校是如何把世行的贷款还清的。在这过去的几年里,有时我可能处于一种living death的状态,也不知道现在活过来了没有。
     
    来美国上学已经进入第四年。上周末出游芝加哥时,我和小婷婷在starbuck里躲雨,坐在一个英国旅客旁边,他说 his aunt moved to Australia and enjoyed the first 10~15 years there. Then she regreted, but Britain had become too expensive for her to move back. 这种教训现在就要开始吸取啊。
     
    说到这次旅行,真是非常的有收获。阴晴云雨,日落月出,像海一样的大湖和白沙滩,整洁而富有艺术气息的市区,颠覆了风城在我心目中严寒肃穆,遍地鹰犬的黑帮形象。穿过欧式建筑和现代高楼的河流,富裕而葱茏的居民区,铁路边似曾相识的砖楼木梯,古典的学校,漂亮的医院,奇妙的大钢豆(cloud gate),今年最后的音乐节. 不失时机的焰火,非常deep-dished的pizza。 没有风,没有雪,有好友导游的旅途真是太美好了。以致回到new haven,打着新雨伞上学也神清气爽, 因为抬头看见的总是晴空下芝加哥璀璨的夜景,让我想到路灯下潮湿的公园,和安静中sprinkling 的夜。 Kiss and fly, my Chicago on Oct 2~4th~~

    我出国的时候暖水袋已经不好买了啊,不过也难说,有的时候改头换面一下也许也有新的出来。xiaoyue: 我也没觉着好看啊。只是你也知道,我一般都要物尽其用的嘛,也有点纪念价值。另外,难道我们的床单一样??

    赞床单!我这些天用着暖水袋,想想还是出国前在北新买的,在美国颠沛一路扔了不少东西,唯独暖水袋绝不敢扔。。。现在北新都不见在了吧。。。暖水袋这东东在北京是否见在都未可知了。。。。
