彼时我正在厕所很认真地洗脸。窗外忽然变得很亮,又立即变得很吵,盖过了厕所里的水声。我捏着毛巾在镜子前站了一会。如果这时有一枚鞭炮能够飞进窗户,应该刚好可以在我头上炸开。

农历一年前的此时正在飞往西贡的上空。刚过午夜,我坐在灯光暧昧的机舱里看隔壁的外国女人专心地画一朵很大的花。我对植物的认识很有限所以很可惜无法准确地说出花的名称。后来在我们降落之前她又画了一些别的东西,植物或者抽象。我想在登上离开西贡的飞机之前她可能需要一本新的sketchbook。

阳历一年前的今天做了些什么已经想不起来了。从观影记录上来看当天看了一部日本电影。在过去的一年当中我看了不少日本电影,超过了全年电影数量的三分之一。当然也有很多来不及看的,希望今年能把他们看完。
