School Girl

Hi all, 

Happy Tuesday! For us movie lovers who live in Toronto, Tuesdays are definitely something to celebrate because movie tickets are almost half price in theatres!! Mr. S and I are going to watch Godzilla tonight! Have you seen the latest version yet? Any good? 

嗨亲们,周二愉快!
对于我们这些居住在多伦多的电影爱好者来说,每周二都是一个特别的日子。因为电影院的门票几乎半价哦。我和S先生准备今晚去看哥斯拉。你们看过最新的这个版本了嘛?好看吗?

Why is this blog post named "School Girl"? Two reasons! First: This navy-and-white sailor-inspired top I'm wearing was actually my high school uniform (No, I'm not kidding!). The other day when I was going through some old stuff, I found this top at the very back of my closet. It surely brought up plenty of memories, good and bad. I figured why not try to restyle it and create something magical and fun. 

Second reason: We shot this set of photos at my old school- University of Toronto. I missed the feeling of going to school; listening to professors' stories and lectures; doing group projects with classmates; studying overnight at Robarts library before final exams. I missed the time period when all I had to worry about were my grades and what courses to take...Well, but just like many students, I was complaining about the stress and couldn't wait to get out that "fire zone"! Now, I miss the simplicity of school. I remember when I was still in school, not one person (not two, but countless people) have warmed me: "Enjoy your time at school right now. You will miss it!" 

为什么这篇博文会起名叫“学院女孩”呢?两个原因!第一,这件海军试上衣其实是我高中时穿的制服。前几天我在整理旧东西时,在衣柜的最深处发现了它。我当时立即萌生出想要重新搭配它的冲动,于是便做了这么一个好玩又自我感觉有创意的事情。
第二呢,我们本次的拍摄地点选在了我的母校-多伦多大学。我真的很想念那种在上课空档穿梭于校园之间的感觉;那种坐在教室里聆听教授讲课的时光;那种与同学们共同完成功课的时候;还有在图书馆里学习一整晚的拼搏劲。我以前总是抱怨,恨不得早点脱离这个水深火热的地方。不过现在看来,当时的我只需要担心学分怎么样,选哪个老师的课而已。。我记得不只一个人告诫过我:“珍惜现在的学生生活吧,你以后会怀念的!”
