電車男
在加拿大時一直很想試試坐電車由上環去肖箕灣的滋味,想在電車上層看看街上的人與事。昨天終於一嘗所願。
原先預計會看到很多華洋建築物集處,但這情景俱往矣。除了上環街市、立法會大樓和西灣河附近的舊樓外,看不到香港的殖民地建築,也看不到很多那些 "72家房客"的唐樓,間中也會看到些 "大押"當鋪,其特色是會有石屎 建築覆蓋在行人路上面,還加兩隻古舊腳柱在行人路和馬路之間。
代之而起的,是一幢幢坐地玻璃的摩天大廈和連成一氣的室內商場,四平八穩的坐在路邊,看多了也生厭。
反而招牌很好看,"陳湘記書店"," x記" 茶樓,"Y記"雨傘,這麼老土的名字,總帶有6、70年代的情懷,當時我們的父母也是我這個歲數吧。不知下一代看見 "海港城"又會有什麼感想?
整條電車線坐了一小時,5時到6時,天光坐到天黑,霓虹招牌又關坐到開。是學生才有這種閒情。怪不得人們說學生是人生最快樂的時光,相信是這個緣故吧。
(回程乘天星小輪返九龍,又可欣賞維港夜景。可惜身邊沒有相機,拍不到什麼照片)

Not only are you missing a camera to save the memory of the little Thrusday afternoon trip and share with us, you are also missing someone to share the speical moment in your life. Stop being a 電車男 and find your better half la! Not getting any younger you know, Kowk C-Fu! Can't wait till we meet Kowk C-Mo ar!
ronald, good comments!
I miss the 电车 as well. I remember when I was still in middle school, I used to ride it daily. I still remember the sound the 电车 make during acceleration...and how can we not mention the 叮叮 sound?
Memories are always sweet and timeless...
學生時代最快樂的, 我想還是能在大白天在旺角的街道上走進一個一個的店舖... 攸閒地看著心看的球鞋, 電玩和模型... 整個世界都只在那個小小的天地... 尤其是那些街頭小食... 我想現在我最想看到的還是小食...
Aaron: why "在大白天在旺角的街道上走進一個一個的店舖" u don't have to go to school?
Ronald: thanks for your concern, but it is not depended on me, i think the fastest way for me to get the better half is to buy a wife from Mainland China
當然是在不用上課的日子吧... 比起一年工作三百五十九日的人來說, 讀書的時代大概是天堂一般的生活吧?
