前不久看到一篇文章，顺着链接跟过去，原来是出自北大中文论坛的一篇旧贴，题目是《北京大学不应该是 Peking University 的20个理由》，文章还挺长，耐着性子读完一遍主要是为了瞧瞧这个无知的人到底"无畏"到了什么地步。哦，就因为普通话、汉语拼音得到了推广，所以沿用百年、在世界范围内拥有相当知名度的 Peking University 都得跟着变了。按照这种逻辑，那"中国"的英文译名也不能叫 China ，得改成 Zhongguo ，成天"瓷器瓷器"地叫咱们，多没面子、多没国威啊，对不？"爱国者"们，赶紧行动起来吧！发起一场声势浩大的改名运动，要求英语世界必须统一使用 Zhongguo 这一新译名！还有还有， Hong Kong 得叫 Xianggang ， Macau 得叫 Aomen ， Tibet 得叫 Xizang ，。。。
想起一更无厘头的。我在南京读书的时候，有一次在猫空和人吃饭，听到有人在议论东南大学的英文译名问题。听到其中一人说道，东南大学不应该叫 Southeast University ，而应该叫 Dongnan University 云云，这厮给出的理由是如此翻译方才符合有关规定。闻得如此宏论，我们桌几个人都乐了，赶紧扭头找这高人。
这首歌曲是 Hilary Duff 音乐中我比较喜欢的一首，另外还有一首 Come Clean 也很好，下次介绍。
Lyric
Found myself today Oh I found myself and ran away Something pulled me back The voice of reason I forgot I had All I know is you're not here to say What you always used to say But it's written in the sky tonight
So I won't give up No I won't break down Sooner than it seems life turns around And I will be strong Even if it all goes wrong When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe Someone's watching over me
Seen that ray of light And it's shining on my destiny Shining all the time And I won't be afraid To follow everywhere it's taking me All I know is yesterday is gone And right now I belong To this moment to my dreams
So I won't give up No I won't break down Sooner than it seems life turns around And I will be strong Even if it all goes wrong When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe Someone's watching over me
It doesn't matter what people say And it doesn't matter how long it takes Believe in yourself and you'll fly high And it only matters how true you are Be true to yourself and follow your heart
So I won't give up No I won't break down Sooner than it seems life turns around And I will be strong Even if it all goes wrong When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe That I won't give up No I won't break down Sooner than it seems life turns around And I will be strong Even when it all goes wrong When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe That someone's watching over Someone's watching over Someone's watching over me
Someone's watching over me
