昨晚9点电话后,因为James 建议我去glasgow和他一起,作为他的客人,还有我提到skema问我是否回国教课,他认为virus情况不好,不应该回去,而我更是因为担心自己身陷其中出不来,所以他说:why not back mysore? I was asking myself why she is going to Sri Lanka!
I said: I think we should do what we are doing and not change it easily but open for new things. your proposal is so sweet that u think of me, I like that, will not decide now let me think over. Why not u come to beach in sri. Lanka we can both work.
He explained to me how stable and in good rhythm he is, how this year is ready for new things, new adventure, how supportive I am to him in terms of going to his home he is working with focus not distracted( I was a bit over thinking on saying supportive as a typical Chinese). how he regret he should take with me more when we came out of Kumar house first time in my guest house.
I think it is a good start, even after checking on needing apply for visa either in China or USA, it makes going to UK a big drama and also canceling my flight back to GOA etc. a lot of fixed plan will be changed, but no rush, take it easy not deciding yet. He did suggest not going to Adam's peak so I am changing my plan just during vipa, now heading to habutale staying in Timo recommended place, u see being open is a great thing to new experience. I am open but not coming back to mysore for sure.
So did not sleep up to 11pmish, woke up before 2am, so 3pm vipa and now 6.30 finishing healthy breakfast, yesterday the Indian food shifa gave is bad, not good, tea sucks particularly, so cautious today for healthy choice.
breakfast is brilliant, two types of eggs, black coffee, papaya, particular they say 7am I was down 6amish already able to eat; then the group of dutch girls came down we chat about DSM, guide telling me the train information. It sounds super difficult to get 1st or 2nd class.
So I went with tuktuk early but 7.56 got ticket 2nd class that? Easy no drama, got one hour to wait so read Alchemist:
“什么是世上最大的谎言?”男孩吃惊地问道。
“在人生的某个时候,我们失去了对自己生活的掌控,命运主宰了我们的人生。这就是世上最大的谎言。”
男孩面对自由自在的风,羡慕之情油然而生。他意识到,他也可以像风一样自由。什么也不能阻止他,除了他自己
james推荐是有道理的,就是需要自由,自己主宰,和他需要和认为变化已经来到有关系,我们谈到他的行程和他自己需要多教课finance rest of year有关,对于新书的期望值,过高但可以鼓励他完成。因为过往很多人在大堂,他distracted,我们说到让我回mysore,我说考虑一下,想过实在不愿意回去,尤其斯里兰卡还没有体验多少,但决定今天晚上再说,看到中部mountains再决定。
火车上2nd class都是外国人,满了,就去了3rd class,果然窗户很大,门口敞开,很爽,我有位置,周围都是当地人,之前两个尼姑霸占4个人位子不让我做,车站瑞士女孩多付1200买3等车票,酒店一路doubook好,我是早晨vipa之后决定到habudale,订了timo推荐酒店,否者都是到了再说,每次都很幸运。
9.05开车,信号不好我还谈生意和教学改变计划学校协商,S完全没法跟上思路,这生意也真是命中注定,之后埋怨我自作主张让她只是follow,我心里很多可以说的都没说,承认”我下次注意!" if it does not work it does not work, no push. 对面斯里兰卡男人shan非常Chatty,不停和我说话,都是善意和好心,但我后来实在难以招架,还在听歌,欣赏美景,和完成部分工作之前折腾,当地人有的会扔东西到窗外,卖油炸食品小贩没有缅甸的多,那才叫有意思,这里是风景一路完美,尤其是horton之后到habudale,其实路途ok时间漫长,就当是一场盛宴景色,体验当地风光,瑞士坐落于印度洋之中感觉,我也琢磨J的行为状态,不想不可能,不去纠结就是enjoy,如果没有他,斯里兰卡之行很无聊,以前都是如何过的?孩子们一到地道就嚎叫,火车时间真长,至少6小时。
到了之后发现就是个很落后的小村子,实在啥也没有,一个像样的cafe都没看到,我跨过铁轨找到mist holiday bangalow,需要踩着布袋子下去,到了之后和proprietor打过招呼,就下去吃饭,我真是饿了,看到coconut Roti,就很兴奋点了,发现他们拿了酒瓶子摊开面团,好吧,给了我油炸面团里面是土豆,以为免费呢,结果都算钱,包括很咸的dal,吃饱之后村子里逛,加入一个婚礼团照,吃了当地一个瓢一样的面团摊开,有的里面加鸡蛋,小店都没啥可看的,真的是简单淳朴,就是到处都是tea plant,明天可以去discvoer,和lloyd一个当地人帮助酒店聊天,他是退休老师,让我去ashram,都关门了,我惦记回来tele,回来后天气也凉了,主人20个亲戚突然降临,很热闹,我过去拿了茶,吃了他们给的蛋糕,看夕阳。计划明后天行程,看朝阳,问了几个人呢,发现还是要去几个不同的地方。今天计划和james说一下如果他来就最好,不来也ok,我计划回美国申请英国签证,也许不会sharmila上课,但都是待定,一切都是未知数,enjoy。
和lloyd聊天,喝了茶,吃了蛋糕,可爱的环境,楼上20多人热闹得很,不请自来自己做饭之后回去,有意思。
