咖啡時光
若你從臺大誠品切進溫州街,一路向辛亥路高架方向走,沿路會遇到雪可屋、Picnic 野餐咖啡、還有落在街尾的路貓(路上撿到一隻貓),三家都是當時的一時之選,各有擁護者,也凝聚著不同同溫層。而我獨鍾Picnic,木桌木椅的溫潤調性,擁有大片窗景與陽光的靠窗獨坐區,儘管座位稍嫌擁擠卻不惹人生厭(當時覺得鄰桌人的話題每每都十分有趣)還 Maklumat lanjut
How we learn to say goodbye
好友Y在前些日子離開我們去天上做天使了。
從得知難捱的病情到真正離開我們只有短短一年的時光。在即將來臨的告別式,共同好友們緊密地加了群組,整理她生前留下的痕跡,其中有短文有影像有聲音有笑聲也有念想,我們在整理中梳整悲傷,將記憶歸檔,才發現原來一個人留下的東西,可以這麼多,也只這麼少。

愛的鍋
Q:若臺灣食物裡面只能選一樣存活下來,你的選擇是?
我毫無疑問地回答是火鍋。只因火鍋的豐富性太吸引人,從北到南各式各樣的湯底、上山下海各異的食材,林林總總加乘起來,成為三百六十五天怎麼樣也吃不膩的食物;但火鍋也能很簡易,每每聚餐想不到要吃什麼時,總會有人為火鍋發聲。火鍋不勞費油煙爆炒,也不講究廚藝,只需一鍋好的湯 Maklumat lanjut
「這個很小日子——。」
入社這段時間以降,已經在無數次的編輯會議裡,或老闆、朋友、訪者等身邊多數人的口中不曉得聽過幾次,把「小日子」三個字視作一個形容詞的句子。但小日子究竟該怎麼解釋,我自己心底卻很難有個底。每期企畫的發想、文字的寫就,都彷彿是已內建在我(編輯)的身體裡,對於世界的好奇與理解的展現,或許也是榮幸地,像我 Maklumat lanjut
「糖是靈魂的養分」
大概兩年前,我戒了一年左右的糖,期間最喜歡的手搖飲直接放棄,甜點幾乎不吃,但完全想不起來哪天開始,總覺得人生何必對自己如此苛刻,我又開始一點點地吃起甜食,直到前陣子,生活與工作巨大的壓力讓我每天都異常焦慮,好幾天下午我都直接蠻橫地吃掉一整個淋滿糖霜的肉桂捲,接著我就知道,我這輩子應該都不會再回去戒糖 Maklumat lanjut
「我們逃走吧 如果你也曾這樣想」
我是一個汐止人。這意味著,出社會之後(其實從更早之前)每當我要進入臺北都心地區上班、採訪、社交、約會,就需要搭臺鐵到南港、松山或臺北車站再轉乘,人們聽到我先透過鐵路轉乘時總是會很驚訝,「火車啊,我以為那是出去玩才會搭的」「我上次搭火車是要去畢業旅行的時候吧」,大抵會聽到類似的回答,其實某 Maklumat lanjut
這是一則徵友啟事
「約會」原本不在今年主題清單上,但年中加入的編輯家豪提議時,身為純血純種的戀愛動物,我立刻止不住地點頭同意,沒錯!冬天最適合約會了!(雖然夏天也還是要約會的,不不,這應該是四季的事)於是我們熱絡地討論起了約會,然後由單身多年但依然懷著一顆少女心的亞涵擔任本期責任編輯,盡情發揮她的想像力。

致不滅的你們
距離八月號發行過後,過了整整兩個月,做雜誌的人,對時間的流逝有時很茫然,一年的光陰常常被以一個月、兩個月的單位切割,然後在每期製作裡,一件事接著一件事地,不知不覺就把那個月使用完了,抵達下半年度時,因為分秒流逝得太快,我一點感覺也沒有,好似我的身體已經先到了時空的彼方,但我的意識還被留在上半年,停滯在雜誌 Maklumat lanjut
