連續第三篇家中抽屜啟發的文章, 就給它們命名為"抽屜系列"吧! 愛收藏舊東西的人就是擁有許多蘊含著珍貴回憶的物件, 可以無時無刻拿來看看, 百般滋味在心頭.
一向少寫日記, 記憶中中學時寫過一段日子, 大學反而沒有, 許多回憶已開始留在電子世界裡. 那時都慣用月歷把每天的細節用三言兩語記在月曆上, organizer是有的, 但偶然寫寫又被擱在一旁, 沒有其用武之地. 於是要尋找昨日的足跡都要翻看那些月曆, 除了去旅遊時會多點寫在organizer上.
1995年夏天, 是個難忘的夏天, 還有一年才畢業, 四個月裡, 記憶中住過14個地方, 包括自己的住處及友人的家, 以及酒店, 旅店等等. 那四個月悲喜交集, 和朋友一起當然是快樂的, 但也有不少難過的日子, 可沒有寫在organizer上. 以下是記在我那本organizer上的點滴, 都是很簡單的幾個字, 還有記載了那天看過什麼電影. 四個月內看了廿多齣電影和好些舞台劇, 可見當年已愛看電影愛得瘋了, 連朋友也和我一起瘋.May 23-24 Tues-Wed 1995

其實那個夏季經歷了許多"傷春悲秋", 但都沒有太著跡寫在organizer上, 或許二十出頭的我已懂不要胡亂把秘密都寫出來.
事隔十一個年頭, 一切仍歷歷在目, 當中許多的人物至今仍有聯絡, 有些在他鄉, 有些在香港, 亦有些失去聯絡.

oh..so do I, I dun write much in my diary...but i have found some interesting "records" in my drawer, it's interesting to read...memories seemed like...not far away but they were indeed.
那年夏天，我也在Toronto，也是人生最後一個暑假．漢城苑還在，Cat Street應該關門大吉很久了．．．

You remind my memories. This is really a summarized dairy.
Don't you remember we only pay 1 ticket to watch 4 movies? Drunk at T's house? I was speeding and need to pay US$200+ penalty!!!!!
M: yeah, of course I remember everything, even though they are not written on paper. :) but i didn't remember we were so cheap to just pay 1 ticket for 4 films... bad girls. the speeding tkt? of course remember lah, u were so upset and asked the 4 of us to share the tkt w/ u ma. u damaged ur contact lens the morning in my apt before leaving for toronto. that drinking nite at T's house, how can i forget? it's a birthday celebration that i won't forget even if i had dementia!
