這次回台北,心情有點小複雜。原以為是回到熟悉的地方,但卻發現台北有些變了。距離我上次回去,現在多了兩條捷運線、紐約紐約也改名了;以前在東區或永康街小巷子鑽來鑽去那家店在那兒一清二楚,現在沒有先上網Google Maps查一下還不知道怎麼去。其實是有點感傷:我離台北似乎越來越遠了。
I felt complicated for my trip back to Taipei this time. I thought I would go back to places that I was familiar with; however, I found Taipei has changed. There are two more MRT lines, the department store New York New York has changed its name. I used to be able to walk around downtown areas, pull out the map from my head and know exactly which store locates where. Now I have to google the location first. I felt a bit sad: it seems like Taipei is getting further away from me.
