我的台灣同學

(2007-11-29 18:47:56) 下一個


昨天晚上在戶外跑步時,突然想起了不久前在《兩岸交流》論壇,讀到巴爾寫的《隨筆-台灣師妹》。巴爾把台灣師妹的形象刻畫的栩栩如生,一個純真可愛的師妹躍然紙上,是如此的真實親切自然深情,給我留下了深刻的印象,也想起了我在美國讀書時認識的台灣同學了。

記得那是剛到學校的秋天,學校的一切對我來說,是如此的陌生而又興奮。我應John的邀請,去參加了由台灣人主辦的迎新picnic。那天的天氣真好,來了許多的同學,每個人都佩戴著name tag, 以便大家互相認識。有各種各樣的美味食品和飲料。在picnic上,我認識了Thomas and Felita,Thomas來自台灣,溫文爾雅,文質彬彬,他在讀工程學的博士; Felita來自香港,嬌小玲瓏,溫柔善良,她在讀國際關係的碩士,他們倆都是虔誠的基督徒。他們周末都去教堂作禮拜,周五也去查經班上學習,Felita不時地邀請我去參加。

查經班是每周五在蓮秋的家裏舉行,蓮秋和他的先生都是台灣人,熱情和藹,他們倆都在工程係讀碩士,他們有一個可愛的女孩叫翡芘,翡芘大約六歲左右,能唱會跳,給大家帶來了許多的樂趣。來查經班的大部分是學院的同學,也有在郵局工作的John和李媽媽等。大家在一起學聖經,唱聖歌,蓮秋的先生彈得一手好吉他,他就為大家伴奏。查經結束後,it was social time, 大家都輪流帶來點心。一邊品嚐點心,一邊聊天。It was very relaxing. 蓮秋的家給我們遠在異國他鄉讀書的學生,帶來了許多的溫馨。蓮秋和他的先生畢業後,帶著他們的女兒翡芘,回台灣工作了。

那時,下課後,我每天都在圖書館打工,Felita經常來圖書館看我,不時地還送給我一些小禮物。打完工後,Felita就和我一起去玩,難忘和她在校園裏度過的美好時光。記得那年的秋天,陽光燦爛,楓葉紅了,古色古香的校園更加的迷人了。我們踏葉賞秋,Felita建議我們來照像。她就取出相機,我們給彼此拍了許多的照片。最終我們倆坐在落葉滿地的中間,照了幾張合影,我們是如此的開心快樂。

畢業後,Thomas在加州找到了一份工作,Felita就隨Thomas就去了加州,在那裏結婚成家了。一年後,有了一個可愛的女孩, 名叫Truth. 可是傷感的是,Felita在懷孕期間就被診斷患了胃癌。當時Felita執意要生下孩子,醫生無法作治療化療等。Truth 平安健康地誕生了,可是Felita經過多方治療無效,在生下Truth一年後,就去了天國。Felita, may you rest peace. Miss you during the holiday seasons.


淑樺是學教育的,也是來自台灣,我當時選了教育係的一門課,就這樣認識她了。她說話總是輕輕的,卻很穩重和藹,學習非常地刻苦,她的書包總是不離肩的,我時常在學校的圖書館見到她。

她碩士畢業後,就回台灣工作了,因為她惦念她的母親。回到台灣後,她還不時地給我來信,過年過節總是給我寄來賀卡,她的字寫得真漂亮。我們有好長時間沒有聯係了,但願她一切都好。今年聖誕節,我一定給她寄聖誕卡,祝她聖誕新年快樂。

May you all have a wonderful Christmas and a great New Year.
May peace and love fill your heart, beauty fill your world, and contentment and joy fill your days.

Wow, your kid learns how to drive now. That is nice. I hope your husband will have a wonderful trip.

Yes, we had a great time here. Santa stopped by the party. Kids got to sit on Santa's lap, and told Santa their wish lists. Cisco did not want to sit on Santa's lap any more. He is at the stage who wants to be treated like as an adult now. lol...He just shook hands with Santa and talked to Santa. Last but not least, all the kids got Christmas gifts.

I am going to take my kids to gym and swimming now. We are heading for home around noon. Becky and Ivana will have harp performance this afternoon. Tell you what? Becky was on our local newspaper again while she was practicing her harp in the church last Tuesday.

Have a nice week,

Rebecca

Sounds very good. Your kids must be very be very happy. I am happy for you and your family.

This morning we drove to airport because my husband went to an oversea business trip. My son learns driving after his exam quite eagerly. It was my first time to sit in front seat with him today. He drives carefully so I am feel ok.

Have a good Sunday,
