    50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People

    50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People

    Make these weight-loss tips a part of your daily routine!

    By Cynthia Dermody
     

    Small Changes, Big Weight Loss

    This is not a diet -- or a rigorous exercise program. (Nobody can stick to those for long.) Instead, it's a simple way to make weight loss a natural part of the life you already live. And guess what? It's fun! You don't have to give up the foods you love or join a gym. It's about balancing calories in tiny ways that add up to big benefits. You just adopt some tricks naturally lean people do. Pick the ones you like, stick with them, and you'll slim down and tone up -- for good!

    Morning Makeover

    1. Wake-up workout When your eyes open, sit up slowly without using your hands. With legs straight out, lean forward until you feel a gentle stretch in your back and hamstrings. Hold; then, using your abs, lower yourself flat. Rest and repeat two more times. Strengthens core. Burns 10 calories

    2. Go for the grains Not ready for Twigs & Rocks cereal? Sprinkle on a few tablespoons of wheat germ or oat bran. Work up to 3/4 cup of low-sugar whole-grain cereal with at least three grams of fiber per serving, and you'll pass on that Danish. Saves 100

    3. Add some protein The more you eat earlier on, the less you eat as the day wears on, research has shown. So after your cereal, add a hard-boiled egg or a part-skim mozzarella cheese stick to keep you feeling full -- and away from that pre-lunch brownie. Saves 200 (or more)

    4. Balance booster While you brush your teeth, alternate standing on one leg as you switch mouth quadrants (every 30 seconds). Balancing develops your core muscles and may even be good for your brain.
    Burns 10

    5. Be a ballerina As your coffee drips, stand sideways, put one hand on the counter, and lift the outside leg straight out in front of you, keeping it extended. With upper body straight, hold for a few seconds and move it to the side; hold and extend it behind you. Do five to ten times on each leg. Tones outer thighs, hip flexors and quadriceps. Burns 10

    6. Coffee saver Instead of pouring that 1/3 cup of half-and-half (a whopping=huge 105 calories!) into your mug, replace it with the same amount of 2% milk. Saves 60

    7. Better your bagel You can walk 10,000 steps to justify your 500-calorie bagel with cream cheese, or try this: low-fat spreadable cheese like Laughing Cow Light on an English muffin. Saves 300

    Nine-to-Five Fixes

    8. Tone in traffic Use the time spent bumper-to-bumper to develop your buns of steel: Squeeze your derrière each time you tap the brake, holding for 10 seconds. Shoot for 10 to 15 squeezes a trip. Burns 10

    9. Snack smarter Portion out the day's snacks into pint-size zip bags, or buy single-serving portions. For example, four regular Oreos have 200 calories versus the 100-calorie snack bag version. Go for the lower fat chips: a Lay's Light bag has only 75 calories, while the regular has 150. Saves 175 (over two snacks)

    10. Casual day payoff You will blast more calories during the day wearing comfy clothes like jeans or khakis, sport shirts and soft-soled shoes than donning constricting suits, skirts and heels. Why? Because you walk more, a study found. Now you just have to convince the boss. Burns 25

    11. You know squat(蹲下)! At your desk chair, pretend you're going to sit but don't -- stop and come back up without using your arms. Always start squats by lowering your hips, not bending knees forward, and keeping your weight on your heels. Repeat the motion throughout the day (even at the potty!) for 15 to 20 total. Strengthens quadriceps. Burns 15

    12. Switch your soda Your body doesn't register calories from liquids the same way it does those from foods, so you won't get those "stop eating" signals to help you compensate for the overload later on. Change from two glasses of regular soda or fruit juice to diet soda or a flavored seltzer. Saves 300

    13. Talk it up Every time you grab the phone, stand up and pace around. Heavy people sit on average two and a half hours more per day than thin people, according to the Mayo Clinic. Burns 50 or more

    14. At lunch, pick a pita Use one mini whole-wheat pita instead of the usual two slices of white or refined wheat bread for your sandwich. Saves 70

    15. Get face time We use e-mail so much we've forgotten what our co-workers look like. Pick a colleague or two who sits farthest from you and deliver 10 of those daily messages in person. And go out of your way: Hit a bathroom or a copier on another floor -- and take the stairs, of course. Burns 100

    16. Firm as you file
    Pause from your papers with a few wall push-ups. Place hands wide at shoulder height against the wall. Take a couple of steps back so your body is at a slight angle and your weight is on your toes, and do three sets of 10 push-ups. Strengthens chest and triceps. (For more desk exercises, go to
    changeone.com/workout.) Burns 10

    17. An apple (or more) a day They're packed with fiber and water, so your stomach will want less. Plus, studies out of Washington State and Brazil have shown that people who eat at least three apples or pears a day lose weight. Try two small apples and two fewer large cookies. Saves 100

    18. Try a simple chair workout
    Dips: If your chair has wheels, brace it against something. Facing forward, place palms on the front edge of the seat with knees bent at a right angle. Lower butt toward the floor; raise and repeat for two sets of 10. Tones triceps. Burns 10
    Lifts: Seated in a chair with your back straight and your feet on the floor, squeeze knees together and gently bring them toward your chest. Do two sets of ten. Strengthens abdominals. Burns 10

     

    Around Town

    19. Carry some weight When you're grocery shopping or running errands, wear a backpack with a 5-or 10-pound bag of sugar inside to increase resistance and burn more calories. Add purchases to your load as it becomes easier. Burns 20 (for an hour of errands)

    20. Tweak your treat Instead of a large caffè latte and a chocolate cream-cheese muffin, get a small nonfat latte and a small low-fat raisin or carrot muffin. Saves 340

    21. Pump at the pump Instead of fuming over gas prices, think about firming your calves: With one hand on your car, stand on the balls of your feet and slowly rise up and down for as long as it takes your tank to fill -- for an SUV that might be 50 raises! Burns 10

    22. Do the pizza pat Blot your slice with a napkin to cut anywhere from a teaspoon to a tablespoon of grease -- and calories. Saves 50-100

    23. Shop till the pounds drop At the mall, try on at least ten outfits, both pants and shirts. No need to buy! Burns 60

    24. Eat like a kid You don't have to give up that quick lunch if you order smaller portions: Instead of a Quarter Pounder with Cheese and large fries, opt for the cheeseburger Happy Meal. You can even play with the toy. Saves 390

    25. Recharge yourself Anytime you're waiting in line, stand evenly on both feet, clasp hands behind your back and squeeze shoulder blades together to open your chest, an energizing yoga-based move that stimulates the nervous system. Hold for 10 to 20 seconds while slowly breathing in and out, taking longer on the inhale. Burns 5

    On the Home Front

    26. Jog for junk mail Turn clutter into a challenge: For every piece of junk mail you pull from the mailbox each day, do one lap around your house or building, or up and down a flight of stairs. Burns 35-140

    27. Use better butter No, you don't have to give up the real deal -- instead of a tablespoon of stick butter, use a tablespoon of whipped and cut half the calories. Saves 30

    28. Step on it Before you lug those backpacks upstairs, stop and stand on the bottom step for these calf toners. Hold the banister with one hand. Bend your right leg and place the toes of your left foot on the edge of the step. Let your heel drop down, press into the ball of your left foot and rise to your toes. Pause; repeat with each foot for 8 to 12 reps. Burns 10

    29. Start with soup Order a clear soup instead of a salad soaked with two tablespoons full-fat ranch and you can save twice the calories. Plus you'll feel fuller, so you'll eat less when the entrée comes. Saves 100

    30. Play footsie After dinner, while you're still sitting at the table, extend your right leg out and slowly bend it up and down, squeezing and holding in the up position for at least five seconds. Repeat on each leg five times. Sculpts quadriceps. Burns 10

    31. Make perfect pasta Substitute whole-grain pasta for semolina and you'll be satisfied with a smaller portion (1.5 ounces instead of 2). Saves 50. Or use the same amount of oat-bran pasta. Saves 90

    32. Climb up! Taking the stairs for a total of just two minutes, five days a week, gives you the same calorie-burning results as a 20-minute walk. Burns 100-140

    33. Fill up with fruit Like pie? Here's how you can cave to the craving: Sprinkle fresh fruit -- some cut-up apple, pear or a handful of cherries -- with some Splenda or Equal, cover and nuke for a minute or so. Tastes just like pie filling. Saves 275

    34. Have your cake Pick up an angel food cake for dessert. It's packed with air and has fewer than half the calories of, say, pound cake. Saves 70

    35. Ease into evening Sitting with feet uncrossed, grab your wrist and raise your hands above your head to lengthen the spine. Take a deep breath in as you reach and hold the position, breathing slowly in and out for 20 seconds, taking longer on the exhale. Instant relaxation. Burns 5

    36. Get your chocolate fix Instead of a candy bar, try a sugar-free, reduced-calorie Jell-O chocolate pudding snack with a squirt of nonfat whipped cream topping. Eat it with a baby spoon to savor it longer. Saves 185

    37. Crunch for your clicker The average half-hour TV show has eight minutes of commercials. Make reaching for the remote control worth it: Place it out of reach on the coffee table or, if you're lying down, on the opposite arm of the couch. Every time an ad comes on and you reach for the remote, crunch until the show comes back on; you should reach 100-150 or so. Tones abs. Burns 24

    38. Lift those hips Before you tuck yourself in, lie on your back on the floor with your legs up on the edge of the bed or a chair. Slowly bend your knees, lifting your hips off the floor. Hold for five seconds, relax and repeat 10 to 12 times. Firms up hamstrings and core. Burns 10

    The Weekend

    39. Sing a song Spend
    Sunday morning belting it out in the church choir. Burns 70 per service

    40. Make it bacon At the diner, order three slices of crisp bacon instead of two sausage links, and pat off the extra grease. Saves 90

    41. Move it, Soccer Parents! After every quarter of the game, get up from the bleachers and take a lap around the gym or field. Four or five times around a typical one is about a mile. Burns 75

    42 Movie time Most people eat 45% more popcorn from large-size containers, so make sure you get only a small and skip the butter, which adds more calories than the popcorn itself. Bring your own seasoned salt or Parmesan cheese for more flavor. Saves 350

    43. Orient yourself At Chinese restaurants, be sure to avoid anything named General Tso or Crispy, which means fried. Eat only the filling of the egg roll and not the shell. Saves 400-500

    44. Catch this! Spend a half-hour tossing a ball or Frisbee with your kid. Burns 90

    45. Cut the cheese Order your pizza with half the cheese or even cheese-less, and then sprinkle with a few tablespoons of Parmesan. Saves 100

    46. Have a hot dog! Pile on the pickles, onions and sauerkraut -- these fiber-packed condiments will fill you up and prevent you from eating a second dog. Skip the cheese and chili. Saves 250

    47. Think about your drink Consider beer or wine instead of a frozen drink: A glass of regular beer has 140 calories and a serving of wine has 126 calories, while a strawberry daiquiri has about 300 and a margarita 340. Saves 150-200

    48. Fix your fries Rather than asking for medium fries, get an order of onion rings (8 to 9 rings). Saves 60

    49. Scream for sorbet冰糕 Indulge in chocolate sorbet instead of chocolate ice cream. Saves 125

    50. Make whoopee (乱闹,狂欢) Instead of a bowl of ice cream as a bedtime snack, have a robust tussle with your spouse. Burns 300

    5 Ways to Synchronize Your Body's Clock

    5 Ways to Synchronize(syn+chronic) Your Body's

    Clock

    Train your body into knowing when its time to sleep.

    By Ellen Michaud with Julie Bain
     

    When you go to bed and when you get up are keystones to restful, refreshing sleep. Once you learn to synchronize your body's biological clock, your body will know when to sleep and when to be alert.



    1. Wake at the Same Time Every Day.
        A good night's sleep actually starts in the morning. The second your eyes flutter open, light shoots down the optic nerve and into the brain's biological clock. There it stimulates the production of a smorgasbord(餐前小菜)of hormones that regulate growth, reproduction, eating, sleeping, thinking, remembering -- even how you feel from minute to minute."Sunlight activates the brain," says Frisca L. Yan-Go, M.D., medical director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center. And activating it at the same time every morning synchronizes your body's biological clock. Then your body has a clear direction that at midnight it's supposed to be asleep and at noon it's supposed to be awake.Wake up at a different time every day and the clock is out of sync. You feel groggy and hungover for hours, and even when you start to feel a bit more alert after that first Starbucks, you really never achieve the mental edge of which you're capable.

    2. Hit the Sheets Only When Sleepy.
        No, not just tired. Sleepy, as in your eyes are droopy and you keep losing track of what people are saying to you.


    3. Get Up.
       Sleeping from 11:30 P.M. until 2:00 A.M., tossing and turning until 4, then sleeping until 6 gives you eight hours in bed but only 4 1/2 hours of sleep. That's a huge mismatch that can actually inhibit your sleep drive and cause insomnia all by itself. To prevent that from exacerbating your sleep issues, when you wake at 2:00 A.M., get up and go read a book in the living room. Being up increases your sleep drive -- which just could make you sleepy enough to actually fall asleep when you return to bed.One caveat: Don't stay in bed when you're awake. A part of your mind will begin to associate the bed with being awake rather than being asleep. And that can turn on a nasty "I'm-not-going-to-sleep!" anxiety that will rev your engines whenever you get into bed. It's one of the most insidious -- and potent -- causes of chronic insomnia.

    4. Give Yourself an Hour.
       The one right before bed. You need it to wind down and transition from the woman-who-can-do-everything into the woman-who-can-sleep. Unfortunately, most women are not giving themselves one single second. According to the 2007 National Sleep Foundation poll, during the hour before bed, around 60 percent of us do household chores, 37 percent take care of children, 36 percent do activities with other family members, 36 percent are on the Internet, and 21 percent do work related to their jobs.
     
    5. Beware Sunday Night Insomina.
        Staying up late on Friday and Saturday nights and sleeping in on Saturday and Sunday mornings is frequently the gift we give ourselves on weekends after a hard week at work. Yet that little gift -- small as it is -- is enough to screw up our biological clocks. Even if you get to bed early on Sunday night, you will not be ready to sleep, and you will not end up being the happy camper you were expecting come Monday morning.
     

    Happy Children's Day

     

    Happy

     Children's Day

    For tho se who are young in heart

     

     

    我就是爱折腾呀能折腾

     

    不断地折腾造就了现在的我

    出生是折腾的开端

    现在已经折腾了N年

    并将持续折腾下去

    它不会以个体的死亡而结束

     

    不折腾何以成生活! 

     

     让MINA每天都觉得很折腾但又不得不折腾的是: 

     

    吃饭,实在是挠心挠肺的才能想出来吃点什么好,上顿吃完又得想下顿。一天忙三次。吃得再多也白搭,到了钟点还是会饿。oh, my god,没完没了。

         

    起床,那种依依不舍的感觉真是刻骨铭心啊,在睁开眼睛的一霎那,心中愤怒的呼喊:为什么不能让我睡到自然醒才读书工作呢?为什么要这样折磨我?

     

    (by the way,起床后叠被子,睡前又要铺床这件事情也够折腾的了)

     

    宗旨:要折腾也得折腾出个样

     

     

    这一刻 举国同哀悼

     
     
         
     没有人知道,灾难会在什么时间、什么地方降临
     
    那些不幸的罹难者,只是我们的替身而已,因为他们的离去,所以我们还活着
     
    每一个生者,都必须行动起来:抗震救灾、重建家园,也重建那些受到创伤的精神家园...... 

     

     

     
     

     

     
     
    I LOVE YOU这首歌送给在汶川大地震的遇难者
     
     
    i love you

    i can only give my life
    and show you all i am
    in the breath i breathe

    i will promise you my heart
    and give you all you need
    if it takes some time

    if you tell me you don't need me anymore
    that our love won't last forever
    i will ask you for a chance to try again
    to make our love a little better

    i love you
    say we're together, baby
    say we're together, woh
    i need you
    i need you forever baby
    you and me

    say you hardly know
    exactly who i am
    so hard to understand

    i knew right from the start
    the way i felt inside
    if you read my mind

    if you tell you don't need me anymore
    that our love won't last forever
    i will ask you for a chance to try again
    to make our love a little better

    i love you
    say we're together, baby
    say we're together, woh
    i need you
    i need you forever baby
    you and me

    remember when you used to hold me
    remember when you made me cry
    you said you loved me
    oh you did
    yes you do

    because of you

    I will not make the same mistake that you did.
    I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery.
    I will not break the way you did, you fell so hard.
    I've learned the hard way to never let it get that far.
    Because of you
    I never stray too far from the sidewalk
    Because of you
    I learned to play on the safe side, so I don't get hurt
    Because of you
    I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
    Because of you
    I am afraid.
    I lose my way
    And it's not too long before you point it out.
    I cannot cry because I know that's weakness in your eyes.
    I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh, everyday of my life.
    My heart can't possibly break because it wasn't even whole to start with.
    Because of you
    I never stray to far from the sidewalk
    Because of you
    I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
    Because of you
    I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
    Because of you
    I am afraid.
    I watched you die
    I heard you cry in the night in your sleep.
    I was so young you should've known better than to lean on me.
    You never thought of anyone else you just saw your pain.
    And now I cry in the middle of the night for the same damn thing.
    Because of you
    I never stray too far from the sidewalk
    Because of you
    I learned to play on the safe side, so I don't get hurt
    Because of you
    I tried my hardest to forget everything.
    Because of you
    I don't know how to let anyone else in.
    Because of you
    I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty.
    Because of you
    I'm afraid
    Because of you
     
     
    ....反复听着kelly clarkson - Because of you,从来没有象今天这个认真去听一首歌,不知道从第几个repeat开始,我竟然流下了眼泪...眼泪开始不停使唤的往下掉...整首歌充满悲伤,带给我完全说不清的感觉
     
    Beacuse of you, 好像我最近的心情写照,有忧愁、委屈、挣扎、控诉、失望但背后却包含着云开见日般的积极意义.
    I never stray too far from the sidewalk 
    I learned to play on the safe side so I don t get hurt

     E=MC²- Mariah Carey- 2008/04/15

    Intro:
    Mariah Carey 2008年最新专辑《E=MC²》,也是她的第11张录音室大碟。

    E=MC² 是爱因斯坦的著名理论,也就是质量和能量之间转化的公式,当然Mariah Carey采用这个作为专辑名称也是有寓意的。“E”代表Emancipation(呼应上一张专辑《The Emancipation of Mimi》),即释放、解放;“MC”就是Mariah Carey的首字母缩写,E=MC²于是就有了另一个含义。

    其中《Touch My Body》也成为Mariah Carey的第18支冠军单曲,这一成绩超过了“猫王”埃尔维斯·普莱斯利(Elvis Presley),她因此成为仅次于披头士乐队的艺人。闻听喜讯后的Mariah Carey在接受美联社采访时表示:“我从不认为自己是那种既革命了音乐又改变了世界的人。这是一个完全不同的时代纪元……我只是很开心,很感激。”披头士仍以20首冠军单曲领先所有歌手。

    Touch My Body》不但登上公告牌的冠军,还在发行的第一周就以28.6万的下载量稳坐数字下载榜的头名。Mariah Carey说她很感激自己能跻身猫王、披头士等伟大歌手之列,因为这不只是她个人的成功,而且对女歌手和少数派而言都意义重大。她说:“我所在流派在音乐界总有种局外人的感觉,谢谢上苍,在我遭到否定的时候给了我自信的信念。”
    Track List:
    01. Migrate (featuring T-Pain)

    怎样用英语在麦当劳点餐

    然麦当劳、肯德基这类快餐店在国内外都受到不同程度的质疑,但就餐时间拥挤的人群还是充分说明了人们对他们的依赖。除了方便快捷,美味也是一大诱惑。想知道用英语在麦当劳这类快餐店怎么点餐吗?赶紧来学两句吧,当你身在国外时,没准儿就用得上了。

    1. May I help you? / What can I get for you today?这是在美国每个店员都会问的。

    回答:Yes.
    这句也可以不答,直接点餐。

    2. For here or to go? / Stay or to go?在这儿吃还是带走?

    回答:For here, number one combo. / To go, one Big Mac with medium fries.
    视情况回答。

    3. With cheese?
    在 Burger King 等店点汉堡时,店员会问你要不要另外加 cheese,大家会比较不习惯。在麦当劳则通常不问。

    回答:Yes. / No. Thanks.
    视情况回答。如果店员没问,你也可以主动说 without cheese。

    4. Do you need some drinks? / Would you like something to drink? / What kinds of drinks?
    要不要点饮料? / 要什么饮料? (点套餐时店员会问这一句)

    回答:Yes, one small Sprite. / Coke, please.
    美国每种饮料都有名字,下面再各别介绍。

    5. Cream or sugar?要奶精还是糖? (有时点咖啡店员会这样问)

    回答:Both. / Cream. / Suger.
    视情况回答。

    6. Would you like fries to go with that?要不要薯条啊? (如果你是单点汉堡,店员可能会这样问)

    回答:No, That’s all. / Yes, a big one.
    不要,就这些。/ 一个大份的。(如果你想要的话)
    视情况回答。

    7. Is that all? / Anything else?就这些了吗?

    回答:That’s it. / That’s all.
    就这些了。通常用 That’s it 的比较多。

    8. Five dollars and fifty five cents.店员会告诉你总共多少钱。

    回答:Here is six dollars. 视情况回答。

    9. Here is forty five cents, have a great day!如果刚好,他有时会说There is no change!

    回答:Thanks. / You too! 视情况回答。

    下面我们来看一下快餐店通常serve的食物:

    1. 套餐 (combo)
    通常看着图片就知道几号是什么套餐,点套餐时只要说 Combo number one,或是 number two 就好了。有时店员会问Do you want to go large? 如果你需要,他会给你大的薯条和可乐。

    2. 汉堡 (hamburger)
    老美说汉堡通常会说 burger, 如 cheese burger。在美国单点汉堡店员会问你 goes with cheese? 所以也可以在点的时候就说 without cheese,他就不会再问你了。有些比较好的餐厅还会问你肉要几分熟,有意思吧。

    3. 薯条 (fries)
    记得以前学英语时薯条是 French fries,在美国说 fries 就可以了。

    4. 饮料 (drinks)
    在快餐店的饮料就那么几种: a. 可乐 coke b. 减肥可乐 diet coke (diet) c. 雪碧 Sprite d. 橘子汽水 Hi-C (or orange soda) e. 冰茶 (iced tea)
    在美国的 soft drink 大多数是可以 refill 的,你可以在店里喝一杯,离去时再去 refill 一杯,相当划算。

    Tips:

    1. 有些老美喜欢用 “Micky D’s” 代替 “McDonalds.” 例如:”Yang, wanna grab some Micky D’s?”, “Let’s go to Micky D’s.”

    2. 在美国的麦当劳和中国不同的是,它们的蕃茄酱都是自己用的,它会有另外一个小台子摆酱和吸管。但是如果你是外带,他就会你要什么酱 (Which sauce do you like?),你就可以答说 ketchup 或是 BBQ sauce

    3. 有些店的奶精跟糖是摆在外面给你自己拿的,这时你如果点咖啡他们就不会问你 Cream or sugar? 但有些店会把奶精跟糖收在柜台后面,这时他们就会问你”Cream or sugar?”

    4. 如果你点的是套餐,你可以跟他说 Can I biggie size it? 那么他就会给你大份的薯条和大杯的可乐,当然是要加钱的,不过通常加的不多。

    5. 最有效率的点餐说法:Three, ketchup, Coke to go. 意思是 Combo number three, give me ketchup, I want Coke and to go! 真是一点废话都没有。

    半日闲

         每天怎么把自己的步调调得越来越快?由闹钟铃声响起的那一刻开始,就滑向生活的跑道,像协和飞机一般以高速起飞。
      今天,就为自己放个大假吧!想要如何度过都没有关系。睡个懒觉、读本好书、栽花种草、悠游漫步……是的,把你的节奏调慢一点,享受"闲"的境界。适时地释放心灵,这是一种最完美的享受。

      站在"田园山庄"木屋的窗前,夏日午后的雷阵雨急速而至,是一场暴雨,窗外的湖山全遮没了,天地间白茫茫的一片水气。


      才半小时,雨停云收,搬了条靠椅坐到走廊上,拿了本闲书,泡了杯绿茶。
      如果要看仔细,要考究一点,此处的风景殊不为佳:所居的木屋是新建的,还散发着油漆味;石阶下没有青苔,离湖边不足10米的草地还是新植的,没连在一起;湖边所种的不是杨柳,自然也没有轻点湖面的柳枝;不远处垂钓的不是有着长须的老翁,而是十几个如我一般的游客;湖面上几条各种动物形状的小船上的人穿着救生衣,不是唱着江南小曲,划着木舟,披着长发采莲的少女;对面的山上没有百年老树形成的神秘森林;天空依旧是灰蒙蒙的,不是那种迷人的湛蓝色。


      不过,我面前的湖光山色人工痕迹很少,雨后自有一股清新的滋味,正如一个美丽的少女浴后,透着原始、妩媚,纯真地快乐着。
      在这几个小时里,我什么都不用做,万丈红尘突然和我无关了,就这么坐着,随意翻翻书,偶尔点一根烟,喝一口茶,恍惚着思绪……我的前生是一个羽扇纶巾清瘦寂寞的书生呢,或是在青灯古佛前参悟的那个微笑的僧侣,是否像迦叶见佛祖拈花而露出的微笑?和知交在哪里浅唱低吟过前人或是自己的诗词?我爱和爱我的那些女子是什么样的呢?我死后的灵魂可以穿越时空吗?去寻访千古风流人物……


      间或的蝉鸣和着水波轻拍着岸边的微响,湖面不知名的水鸟从我的瞳孔里飞过,就这么懒洋洋地靠着,张开手,感觉时光轻柔地滑过指间……
      原来,偷得浮生半日闲是这样的。--那是月光一刀说的
      
      
      你跳进车子里,挤进车阵,紧贴着前车的保险杆,匆匆忙忙地有缝就钻,希望能超过昨天的驾驶时间纪录。你轰然驰进停车场,跳出车外,急急地挤出打着招呼的人群,弹进办公室,在电话铃声中做着眼前成堆的工作。午餐时分,你冲进快餐店,在餐盘上堆满食物,接着跃回办公室,在大大小小的会议之间塞上几口,一直到黄昏终于可以再爬上你的车,开始驶向家里的时刻。


      你是否还记得,上次花了一整个上午做些真正想做的事,是多久以前了?
      生活总是匆匆忙忙,以至于"闲"成了一种理想,很难实现。"因过竹院逢僧话,偷得浮生半日闲","闲敲棋子落灯花","将谓偷闲学少年"……不胜枚举的诗句中对"闲"的描写可以令我们知道,即使在生活节奏缓慢的古代社会,闲,也不是一件轻而易得的东西,有时甚至困难到要"偷"的地步。在今天这忙碌的年代里,即使偷得半日闲,也在研究股市,也在网上漫游,也在做第二职业。酒吧茶坊自是闲的所在,然而谈的却大多是生意与商机。闲,已经被挤到一个狭小的角落里去了。


      虽然休闲是当今最常被提及的话题,然而,连休闲本身现在也是一种忙了:一方面是假日经济之忙,另一方面是耽搁在路上的休闲之忙。有钱人最得意的标榜就是"忙着休闲"--把休闲当成一次豪华大餐了。
      然而闲情并非大菜,而是清风流水,被忙碌缠绕,又稍稍懂得一点闲情的人,只好把它做成一种小点心,夹在大餐前后,匆匆地吃上一点。今日的所谓休闲,是真正的"忙中偷闲",但是只有闲字,情却丢了。


      闲情本质上是人之性灵,只有自然山水最能涵养人之性灵,只有最具性灵的人才最能体味世间的闲情,然而好山好水已经被忙着休闲的人们塞得水泄不通,何处涵养性灵?斜卧在沙发里手握遥控器有一搭没一搭地转换频道,倒似乎成了最闲情的姿势了,只可惜手指太忙,心其实也没有真的闲下来,所以性灵之人说:人类文化中的闲情逸兴都被带按钮的机器按死了。
      其实,我们的要求并不高,别让生活羁绊自己,这仿佛已是奢求了。

    歌手福山监制柴崎演唱 富士台九月超强组合
    创作歌手兼演员的福山雅治(38)将为演员兼歌手的柴崎幸(26)的新曲《亲吻》(11月21日发售)作词作曲并担任监制一职。2人共同主演了富士台电视剧《侦探伽利略》将在本月15日开播。作为主题曲制作的强力组合,柴崎改用艺名“KON+”,福山则担任吉他手,并负责和声,为柴崎的演唱染上福山特色。
    这是福山自平成15年1月同为富士台剧《美女与野兽》以来,时隔4年半再度出演电视剧,乾劲十足的他一举挑战演员+音乐监制两项重任。
    在剧中扮演物理学家兼侦探的福山,协助柴崎扮演的女警官,引导其完成案件的侦破。在音乐方面福山同样手把手的对柴崎进行指导。以吉他手的身份参加录音,并展现完美和声。 对此柴崎幸表示,“这次的作品将充满福山特色。录音过程中很轻松,唱起来也得心应手了”。在这首歌曲中柴崎将改用新艺名“KON+”,当初以艺名RUI演唱电影《黄泉路》主题曲“月的点滴”,获得百万销量的不俗成绩。
    此次的改名发片似乎也预示着再获成功的信心。 值得一提的是,在这首主题歌的制作过程中,福山不仅参与了作词作曲部分,更以一个“音乐导演”的身份进行监制。他表示“这对我来说也是非常有新鲜感的一次工作”。
