Aarau 13 April 2017

Aarau

Finally, I'm here writing about the town I live, Aarau!

To be honest, I never take my time and have a completely close look to Aarau until this day. Stephenine visited me and I brought her to walk around in the old town of Aarau. We were lucky because the weather was pretty good. I've been told about the April weather a few times since I came here. April is the end of the winter and beginning of spring, the weather is unstable because it can be snowy/cloudy/sunny/rainy or all-in-one day. AND sunny day doesn't mean it is warm outside. I really learnt my lesson. That's why a clear blue sky and warm tempature is totally a blesssing.


So this blue cloud-like roof is the symbol of Aarau bus station. When I first saw this, I was like 'WOW, this is so cute!'. But after I went to Architecture museum in Basel with Patrik, I change my mind. This blue roof here is one of the inspirational modern architecture in Switzerland. That's why I took a picture of it when I was with Stephenine, especially.


Spring time! Trees were blooming at that time and guess what. I LOVE THEM. I have many pictures of blooming trees and this is one of my favourite! 


Stephenine arrived at here in August of 2016 and she's going back to Hong Kong in a few days. Not only her, basically all the exchange students who arrived at last summer are going back to their own home country. And I'm sad about this.


We don't live close to each other and we don't hang out a lot either. But I really like to be with her. I don't have to stress out because she's really easy-going. We can talk about anything because we're quite similar to each other.



We were by the Aare river. Peeple walk with their dog, ride bicycles, swim in this river during summer or just walk along the river. That seems like the favourite thing to do of Aarau people during the free time. Because the view is so nice and the air is so fresh!


Aare!



This was the SUPER NICE vegetarian fried rice at the Asian restaurant in Aarau train station. It's weird to eat rice with plate and fork. The combination of chopsticks and fork is also weird. But they still work things out.

I'm writing this post with a complicated feeling of mine. Because when I look back to all the pictures I took, all the memories start to play in my mind as if I still live in those good times. But memories are just memories. Time flies, people leave if they aren't mean to stay.

I should have control my emotion.

okay, back to Aarau.

I see Aarau as my second home to be honest. Whenever I have a trip to somewhere far, as long as I reach Aarau Bahnhof, I feel safe and relief, I feel home. I think I will have more posts about Aarau in the future because I fall in love with this town day by day and my idea will change as time pasts. Or I will change.

Thanks for reading!
Hope you like it :)

神奇的旅行 第六章

第六章 俗语说：“经一事，长一智。”时予经历了两次转换，第三次她安全着地。‘殷时予，干得不错！’时予忍不住称赞自己，前几次都摔得不像样。 眼前出现了一栋房子，构造竟然与时予经常想象的一模一样。时予先是吃惊，再来是觉得很神奇。既然是时予的梦境，这栋房子应该是属于时予的。她擅自打开了门，房子里面也和时予想象的如出一辙。 “小予，你回来了。” 时予听到一个熟悉又陌生的声音在耳畔轻轻地响起，就像幻听一样不真实。 “小予，有你最喜欢的蛋糕，要吃吗？” 爸爸久违的身影缓缓的从厨房走出来。他还是穿着他最爱的白色 T 恤和牛仔裤，腰上依然是妈妈送的皮带。爸爸的脸上带着他特有的笑容。时予身体僵硬，无法动弹。 “爸……”她轻轻地唤了一声许久都没有呼唤过的名字。 “哦，爸爸在呢。怎么了？你别哭啊，谁欺负你了吗？告诉爸爸好吗？别哭。” “我没有在哭啊。没有人欺负我。” 不听话的是眼泪。眼泪自己流出来了。时予也无法控制的。时予想象过无数个与爸爸相见，向他询问真相的场景。没想到竟是在梦境。 “爸，你去哪儿了？你怎么在这里？你知道这里是哪里吗？” “快坐下，爸爸慢慢说给你听，不急。” 时予围着小餐桌，仔细听爸爸诉说一直未解开的谜团。爸爸的声音低沉，但听起来却是格外的舒服。或许在每个人心中，父母的声音都是最自然、听起来最舒服的。虽然有时候会被妈妈唠叨，但还是会习惯属于妈妈特有的唠叨。某天，那把声音不在耳边唠叨了，反而会觉得浑身不适。 儿时的时予最爱缠着爸爸，让他说故事给时予听。逐渐长大后，时予开始独立，也疏远了爸爸的故事。爸爸去世后，时予最后悔没有多听点爸爸的声音。深夜未眠时，爸爸的声音总是像梦魇一样，挥之不去。 此时此刻，时予不想从梦里醒来了。梦醒后，爸爸就不在了。梦不醒，妈妈很伤心。梦啊梦，为什么让时予掉入这个世界呢？ “爸爸真正的死因，其实你妈妈是知情的。可是你妈为你着想，决定一个人扛着，她认为你还不够坚强，能够接受真正的事实。” “为什么？我已经长大了，我很坚强的，妈妈为什么不想让我知道呢？” “小予，在你妈眼里，你一辈子也长不大，永远都是她的孩子。她不想让你知道，自有她的原因。爸爸告诉你，好吗？” “求之不得！” “我不是自杀而是被他人杀。杀我的人是我的女同事，那个与我一起丧命的女...

Lötchberg Südrampe 17 April 2017

Lötchberg Südrampe The following day after the castle of Lenzburg, I went to the Canton of Wallis with Patrik. www.myswitzerland.com/en-ch/hohtenn-lalden-hiking-classics-on-loetschberg-mountain.html I don't remember where did we start our walk but I am sure that we stopped at the station which called Ausserberg. It was not a difficult walk for me. Here is a sharing of thoughts. I like hiking because of the freedom of it. Without the help of watch, without knowing the exact time, I eat when I feel hungry, I stop when I feel tired. I don't have to bother about anything, just have to be careful when I hike. Hiking makes me feel like as if everything is returned to its origin, nothing is complicated. Maybe it is due to my subconcious of wanting to escape from the busy city life, I really enjoy myself when I am in between the beautiful mountains and hills. Hope you enjoy the following pictures! The railway  The valley The people of this c...

Erste Woche in der Schweiz

Image
To be honest, I didn't realise that when the first week of me in Switzerland just passed. Personally, I think due to the diet change, I became healthier than I was in Malaysia. I usually started my day with a simple breakfast such as cereal with milk and half of an apple. Lunch would be grains and vegetables of the day. Various types of cheese with bread and a cup of warm tea would be my dinner. I had 8 hours of sleep for the first week. I was very lucky because I don't experience jetlag. The nearest bus stop to my house I really like it  A selfie :) An English garden where I have to walk through in order to go to school Favourite class break snack XD I didn't understand it but now I think I can The first snow in my life. 28th Feb 2017. I woke up to this snow. NOTE : TO SOMEONE, who watches the first snow with me in winter of 2017 I will like to go on a date with you.
