在秋
风瑟瑟的夜里 在秋风瑟瑟的夜里
我不想多说什么 我只想告诉大家
只希望用我的双手 让我们每天都更加快乐
呵护那跳动的烛火 让天堂里的她
让它映着那灿烂的笑容 分享我们的快乐
伴着曾经所有的欢乐 永远快乐
深深留在我的心里
一起走过的日子——关于A Mei的记忆
[by Coral]
来北大的第一天就认识了A
Mei,她自我介绍说:“我叫何志媚,第三个字应该读mèi(第四声),但是我自己念méi(第二声),因为我觉得那样有点土……不过很多人都叫我A
Mei的,呵呵。”她一脸笑容灿烂,还带着两个酒窝。从此就一直叫她A Mei。
进校第二天,老师带领我们转校园,半路上A
Mei突然冲着一个迎面走来的女生一通大喊,说的尽是粤语,那女生也回答了一串粤语,我们其他人都面面相觑,只听懂了最后一句话“Bye bye”。
不久后一天我去她的寝室玩,恰巧她们几个在说自己的家乡。我说我是上海来的,A
Mei非常兴奋得蹦过来对我说:“你教我说上海话吧!我有一个中学同学也是从上海来的,他常常用上海话开我玩笑,我又听不懂,现在你教我,回去之后我去吓吓他……”当晚,她就向我学了“你好”、“再见”等等日常用语,还有唯一一句骂人话“十三点”。
A Mei很快跟Chen Lei成为好朋友,一起吃饭、一起自习、一起玩。Chen
Lei也是一个极爱笑的人,从此每天晚上十点多,都会听见她们大声说笑着回来。
第一个中秋,我们全班一起在生技楼吃月饼看月亮;国庆,大家一起去植物园爬香山;元旦,全班在男生宿舍里包饺子……A
Mei总是最活跃的;春节里,她给每个人打电话拜年。每次班里有同学过生日,大家就去男生宿舍聚会,吃蛋糕时,A
Mei总是第一个拿奶油向别人脸上抹的人,也是被别人抹最多奶油的人。我们常说,我们班同学关系那么好,尤其是男女生之间关系很好,多亏了有A Mei做我们的团支书。
冬天下第一场雪的时候,一大清早,就听见A
Mei的声音在楼道里回荡“下雪啦!!!”接着就看见她和Chen Lei冲下楼梯。我恍然,南国来的A Mei,几乎从来没有见过雪呢。
等未名湖冻起来之后,一天晚上上完高数习题课,A
Mei忽然提议“我们去未名湖打雪仗吧,生技班对三班!”大家纷纷响应。在那场雪仗中,又是A Mei带头高喊“活捉刘宇鹏!”
到春天时,A
Mei又提出“二班三班和生技一起去北京郊区春游吧,星期六走,在外面住一晚,星期天再回来,一定会很好玩的!”最终我们有八个人参加了这次郊游(我们班只有我跟她两个人,其他都是三班的),去了一个叫“桃园仙谷”的地方。有几个男生想当天就回学校,A
Mei软硬兼施,威逼利诱,把他们一个个留下来。晚上我们住在一户农家,烤羊肉串吃,A Mei兴奋不已,几乎一夜没睡。
过了几天,我在图书馆碰到她,她正对着书本发呆。我问她怎么了,她说跟Chen
Lei闹矛盾了。我听她说完,发现是有一点误会,于是去跟Chen Lei说。晚上就又听见了她们两个在楼道里笑个不停了。
五一节,A Mei和Chen Lei本来商量好要去神农架,但是家长不放心,结果A
Mei就决定回家。走之前,她向我抱怨要乘24小时火车。到家后过了几天,我给她打电话,她在那头大声说“家里好舒服啊!”
A
Mei参加团校,于是常常把那里学来的游戏叫我们玩。有一阵流行做心理测试,一天上高数习题,上课前她出了一套问题,还没有公布答案老师就进来了。一下课,她就站到讲台上去说“现在公布刚才心理测试的答案……”几个调皮的男生从她身后走过,在黑板上写“反对神婆
反对迷信”,我们大笑,A Mei也笑弯了腰,但还是跟我们说完答案才去追究肇事者。
去小龙门实习,她是小组长,跟她同组的男生不肯好好做事,A
Mei只好一个人折腾最后的总结报告,她向我诉苦,说完了笑一笑又继续埋头写。
军训时,她是我们的副班长。那时条件艰苦,很少有水果吃。A
Mei人缘好,不时有人送西瓜桃子什么给她,于是我们也跟着沾光。后来她报名参加战术班,每天练习匍匐前进,还很高兴的对我们说“好好玩啊,还可以每天洗澡。”
大二开始,A Mei很努力的学习,外出游玩少了,但楼道里她的笑声依旧……
上学期,生物英语课,老师要选TA,让竞选者发表演说。A
Mei上台先朝我们灿烂一笑,张口就说:“大家选我吧,我知道你们不会让我这么可爱的女孩子失望的……”我们都笑了,最后投票结果,A Mei以绝对优势当选。
今年暑假A
Mei留在学校里准备GRE。我每次去她寝室,她总是同样的姿势坐在电脑前。我们说各自G的进展,我给她讲做大运会志愿者的趣事,我们笑完了,再继续努力。后来她考得很好,回来整整一下午都在写机经。晚饭时她冲进我们寝室说“我的机经上taisha的首页了,快看快看!”我们向她借她用过的GRE参考书,她说理完行李就拿给我们,因为她第二天就要回家了。当晚她始终很兴奋的在各个寝室之间串来串去宣传她的机经。第二天早晨,我一开门,看到门把手上挂着一袋东西,解下来看,原来是A
Mei的书,她还附了一张纸条,说她理完东西时我们已经睡了所以只好挂在门把手上。过一会儿我碰到她,说“我们收到你提前送的圣诞礼物了。”她哈哈大笑道:“现在圣诞老奶奶要回家了!”……
后来,开学后一天晚上,忽然大家都聚在楼道里听A Mei讲考G经验,我笑着说“A
Mei啊,以后你开一个新西方辅导班吧。”…… 后来,就是她要过生日了,我们到一个小店里去,买了三个蛋糕,每个都插了21支蜡烛,A
Mei进来,大吃一惊,随后灿烂的笑容再一次扬起,我们唱生日歌的时候,我看到她眼里闪烁着泪花…… 后来,一天她跟Yang
Jing骑车去天津,深夜回来,到我们寝室来要红药水,一边抚着伤口一边兴奋的说着途中的趣事,她学Yang Jing说话的腔调,惟妙惟肖……
后来,她叫我们报名参加校运会,说她自己要参加七项全能……
再后来,她想着国庆去哪里玩,一会儿说浙江,一会儿说湖北,我报了一大串浙江的名胜给她,还说你去那里就顺便到上海看看吧…… 到现在,A
Mei的gre参考书还在我们寝室呢,还有她的GRE成绩单,前几天我帮她拿上来的,还没有来得及放到她床上去………… 实在写不下去了……
A
Mei,祝你在天堂一切都好,做名副其实的angle,做最快乐的angle,你在那里尽情的笑,我们会听见……
[后记] 昨天晚上10点半,跟Teng Lin从坝上草原回来,一进寝室,Liu
Yang就对我说:“出大事了。”我看到她胸前的白花,一时没有了思想,待她说出“A
Mei”,我觉得似乎什么也没有听见,直到我看见436门上挂了白花圈、听见小朱嚎啕大哭,我才开始意识到什么,接着我也痛哭起来……
仍然还真切的记得八月底去为韩晓佳送行,这一次,却是一个和我更亲近的人…… 躺在床上,过去两年间与A Mei在一起的种种浮现眼前……
谨以此文表达我对A Mei的深切哀悼……
Angela: My teaching
assistant and dear friend.

Angela: My teaching assistant and dear friend.
A young Chinese-American student walks solemnly across
Berkeley campus with the same grim expression day by day. People look and can’t
help but wonder what is on the mind of the young man dressed in black from head
to toe, always holding 2 white roses in his hands. His eyes are lowered as he
walks, his mind is deep in thought as pain grips his heart at every thought of
her. On the morning of October 3, 2001 he was told that his cherished teaching
assistant Angela has passed away. Upon hearing the news, he rushed out of the
Valley Life Science classroom he was in and wept outside bitterly at the thought
that she was really gone. Michael, Roger, and Sophy all mentioned it was a car
accident. Even to this moment, he spends his days in mourning at the loss.
I am that Chinese American student.
In Spring of 2001, I was blessed with the opportunity
to teach a Bio English class to a group of 50 talented Peking University
students. Although I was the lecturer, I was more of a friend and fellow student
to them. We’ve had the best moments singing songs at WeiMingHu, playing games,
joking around… along with learning biology. Indeed, I loved each of my students
deeply. I believe they loved me in return.
But three students stood out to be the leaders in our
class: Angela, Michael, and Steve. They were my elected Tas and class president.
To them I entrusted everything, from calculating student grades to leading
Biology Review Sessions. Angela did far more than her share of work in my class.
Her final grade was well above 100, an A++. Not only did she complete the tasks
set before her, but she finished them with an enthusiasm that was distinctly
Angela. Even now, I can close my eyes and see her refreshing smile and cute
dimples as she turns in midterm grades. Over the months, I grew to rely on her
more and more as she proved herself trustworthy in all situations. I loved her
as a teacher and friend. But now she is not longer with us.
Life is painful, isn’t it? Everyday I pray for her to
the God that I’ve shared with each of my students. It is knowing Jesus that has
carried me across this difficult time in my life. For her friends and
classmates: Know that across the Pacific Ocean is a fellow student who mourns
her death along with you. You are not alone as we reflect on Angela’s friendship
and love together.
In loving memory of our friend,
