In the morning of the 27th of February of 2022, on my way out of my Lulu Island house, I saw my neighbours the redhead Rochelle of Russian-Mennonite ancestry and the grey-haired moustached Al from the Anglophone section of Montreal; he was from many generations of Canadians. He said that he did not know French, when he lived in Montreal. I ate a slice of pesto cheese pizza at the pizzeria. The vendor was from Mumbai. Through the window, I could see a young brown-blond-haired man in a dark-grey hooded jacket and blue shorts, which made him look like a "big boy." At the cafe, there was an under-age-30 crowd of ten outside, of whom one looked like a handsome Jew. Inside was a table of five or six over-age-30 people, of whom one was a handsome tomboy in a dark-green jacket and army-green pants. I drank my iced black tea. Heading out of the cafe, I saw the "big boy" smoking in the wooded park. I took the long route home, through the grassy school field littered with goose poop, the northern snowcapped mountains obscured by clouds, an Animistic-Buddhistic view seemingly of a different planet. Near my house, parked in a truck were Olivia and Daniel. Olivia was studying Biochemistry. In the back seat of the truck was a fully black German Shepherd.
2022 年 2 月 27 日早上,我正要离开盧盧島的家,卻碰见了鄰居——红头髮的俄罗斯门諾派血統的罗谢尔,以及来自蒙特利尔英语区、留着灰白小鬍子的阿尔;阿尔好几代都是加拿大人。他说他住在蒙特婁的时候不懂法语。我在披萨店吃了一塊香蒜起司披萨。小販来自孟买。透过窗戶,我看到一个棕金色头髮的年轻男子,穿着深灰色连帽夾克和蓝色短褲,看起来像个「大男孩」。咖啡馆外面坐着十个不到 30 岁的人,其中一个看起来像个英俊的猶太人。里面有一桌五、六个 30 岁以上的人,其中一个穿着深綠色夾克和军綠色褲子,是个英俊的假小子。我喝着冰红茶。走出咖啡馆,我看到那个「大男孩」在树林茂密的公园抽菸。我繞了很长一段路回家,穿过散落着鵝糞的校园草坪,北边白雪皚皚的山脈被云霧籠罩,一派泛灵论佛教的景象,彷彿置身于另一个星球。我家附近,奧莉維亚和丹尼尔停放一辆卡车。奧莉維亚正在学习生物化学。卡车后座坐着一隻全身黑色的德国牧羊犬。
On the 14th of April of 2015, I walk to the Richmond Public Market, I first climbing the stairs outside. Inside, the wide atrium-like building is like a garden in a jungle surrounding, I imagine. Already quite hungry, I trot to Captain Wa, the food vendor, to get noodles with squid, fish, and tofu, as well as hot tea. As I eat, a handsome First Nations man in a purple T-shirt walks by. Then a handsome, stocky Jewish fellow walks by. A few minutes later, I begin to thirst, so I get a cold Mint Bubble Green Tea at the vendor QQ Bubble Tea and Coffee. I sit by the stairs to sip. A threesome family sits eating nearby, the man being black, the woman being Oriental, and the child being a hybrid. Addicted to Bubble Tea, I get another one, this time at Peanut's. It is a cold Green Apple Bubble Green Tea. It is delicious. I take the escalator down. On my way to the washroom, I notice a big aquarium full of probably giant red Alaskan king crabs with barnacles on their legs. They remind me of extraterrestrials, somehow. At the bookstore, I buy a heavily illustrated green botany book in sinograms. I left it on top of a box a month ago and it is still there. It is $14. I take the escalator up. Addicted to Bubble Tea, I spend my remaining coins on a cold Lychee Bubble Green Tea. It is delicious with even bits of white lychee flesh.
2015 年 4 月 14 日,我步行前往列治文公共市场,先是爬上了外面的階梯。市场内部寬敞的中庭式建築,让我感觉彷彿置身于丛林之中。我当时已经有点餓了,便小跑到小吃攤「瓦船长」那里,点了一份面和一杯热茶。面里有魷魚、魚和豆腐。我吃着吃着,一位穿着紫色 T 恤的英俊原住民男子从我身边走过。接着,一位身材魁梧、相貌英俊的猶太人也走了过来。几分鐘后,我开始觉得口渴,于是在「QQ 珍珠奶茶与咖啡」买了一杯冰镇薄荷珍珠綠茶。我坐在階梯旁慢慢品嚐。附近坐着一家三口吃東西,男人是黑人,女人是東亚人,小孩是混血儿。我喝珍珠奶茶上癮,于是在「花生家」又买了一杯。这次是冰镇青蘋果珍珠綠茶,味道好极了。我搭扶梯下楼。去洗手间的路上,我注意到一个大水族箱,里面养着大概是体型巨大的阿拉斯加红帝王蟹,蟹腿上长满了藤壺。不知怎的,牠们让我想起了外星生物。在书店里,我买了一本图文並茂的綠色植物学书籍,上面用的是汉字。一个月前我把它放在一个箱子上,现在还在那里。这本书 14 塊钱。我搭扶梯上楼。我对珍珠奶茶还是有癮,于是用剩下的零钱买了一杯冰荔枝珍珠綠茶。味道好极了,里面甚至还有白色的荔枝果肉。
