昨天自己在房間裡新裝窗簾,裝好了真開心,雖然嚴格說起來,並沒有完全裝好,右邊原有的螺絲拆不下來,還有鐵絲拉不緊,但勉勉強強東遮西掩地還挺像一回事的。 以前的窗簾是由上而下,厚重的布,一拉下來整個房間就暗掉(沒陽光),不拉的話,房間裡完全沒有隱私,大家都能看進來,陽光和隱私二選一,兩難耶。 現在新裝的窗簾可以左右拉開,而且是很輕飄飄的布,陽光可以灑進房間,早上終於可以感覺到太陽公公叫我起床了。 PS. 窗簾是在IKEA買的($15+tax),裝窗簾的鐵絲組合也是在IKEA買的($4.99+tax),鐵絲組合是我發現最簡便的窗簾杆取代品,應急或怕麻煩的話,還挺好用的。我看我回台灣的家後,也可以幫家裡換一組厚實點的窗簾,不然看電視都會反光,對眼睛不好。
I used to rule the world. Seas would rise when I gave the word. Now in the morning I sleep alone. Sweep the streets I used to own.
I used to roll the dice. Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes. Listen as the crowd would sing: "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" One minute I held the key. Next the walls were closed on me. And I discovered that my castles stand. Upon pillars of sand pillars of sand.
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing. Roman cavalry choirs are singing. Be my mirror my sword and shield. My missionaries in a foreign field. For some reason I can't explain. Once you know there was never, never an honest word. That was when I ruled the world.
It was the wicked and wild wind. Blew down the doors to let me in. Shattered windows and the sound of drums. People couldn't believe what I'd become. Revolutionaries wait. For my head on a silver plate. Just a puppet on a lonely string. Oh who would ever want to be king?
