Sweet Brissie life

ブリスベンでのサトウキビ博士研究生活の甘くない備忘録

Green Book

 

意外と早く目覚めるも、二度寝。さらに料理してご飯食べた後に三度寝。というすーぱースロースタート。

まぁこんな日があってもよかろう。自意識に追われる必要もない。

 

Working on APSIM for Ibagué... これからこっちの仕事は時間外業務😇

 

Watching “Green Book” $6

きれいなストーリー、心温まるヒューマンドラマかな。

社会的マイノリティでいることの苦難と、個人として見て判断して関係を築けることの美しさ。

 

Guzman y Gómez, Cali burrito $10...de Cali en realidad? lol

ファストフードのはずなのにめちゃ遅い...

 

結局 Jade Buddhaのサルサは断念。知人来れないみたいだし時間が短いのを言い訳にしてしまった。そして分析済ませちゃいたかった。しかし知り合い居ないしってのでビビったのもある。まぁ焦らずいこう。

 

帰って更に2時間ほどIbaguéの方の分析。分析自体はできたものの結果がイマイチ...出さずに終わる可能性あるな。先にシナリオの方やって、そっちの結果とバランス取る形でCalibration&Valifationの結果で見せる部分を決めるかな。

 

 

***Reflection on Green Book***

 

It was great. Particularly for me, feeling a little isolated and lonely at the moment. I wouldn’t say I was desctiminated, but feel being looked down at. I need someone like Tony, I guess, who doesn’t judge me by apparence but by personality... well, I just remembered that he was also biased and descriminating at the brginning. He changed his mind during the journey by spending time with Shirley. Just like that, it takes time or needs shared experiences to build relationships. Maybe I’m in hurry but it’s not necessary, I should just join gatherings and show myself gradually... no need to worry.

 

By the way, Shirley seemed to be welcomed and applauded at any concerts, but quite often treated badly... like at restaurant or at guest room. People admitted him as a pianist but not as a person to socialise due to discrimination. That’s really sad and unacceptable obviously, but milder cases happen in real life too. Maybe not discrimination at least in public, but less approachable, or just not interested. Anyway I still feel gaps between me and Aussies, or possibly westerners... larger than Asian people. I don’t know what I’m talking about, but somehow I casted my situation and feeling on the film. I hope mine would gradually change too.

 

In the end, I liked the setting of the film... the concert tour around the US! Not much description but still beautiful and adventurous. Reminding me of Motorcycle dailies...anyway, that feeling made me decide to study here, to go abroad and to see other worlds!
