“睡衣日”,顧名思義,就是“穿睡衣去上學(xué)的日子”。我一直認(rèn)為,是因?yàn)橛行┤藨械讲辉笓Q睡衣,所以搞了個(gè)“睡衣日”,好光明正大地穿睡衣出門(mén)。
在美國(guó)人眼中,“睡衣”(Pajamas)的概念與我們略有不同。它們是蓬松而柔軟的衣服,類(lèi)似薄毯。我曾試穿過(guò)一次,穿上便再也不想脫下了——它們就是如此舒適。
Its?pretty?straightforward,? Pajamas?Day?is?the?day?you? wear?pajamas?to?school.?Yeah,? I?know?how?it?sounds.?I?guess? its?because?people?are?too? lazy?to?change?onto?their?regular? working?clothes,?and?decided? to?be?in?their?pajamas?for?the? entire?day.
Just?to?clarify,?the? word?“pajamas”?means? a?different?type?of?cloth?to? Americans?than?it?does?to? Chinese.?Pajamas?are?very? soft?and?fluffy.?They?are? usually?loose?and?comforting.? I?had?tried?it?once.?The?only? thing?on?my?mind?when?I?was? in?the?pajamas?was—??I?never? want?to?get?out?of?it?。縏hat?is? how?comfortable?they?are.?
那一天,整個(gè)學(xué)校都彌漫著昏昏欲睡的感覺(jué)。老師和學(xué)生們穿著不同造型的睡衣,有動(dòng)物、食物和物件,琳瑯滿目,很是壯觀。走在他們之間,一種莫名的舒適感油然而生?;秀敝?,我撲倒在一大堆云朵般松軟的棉花上。那種半夢(mèng)半醒的狀態(tài),仿佛世俗的煩惱都煙消云散了,只留下內(nèi)心的歡愉和平靜。
我曾以為睡衣日是為照顧懶人而發(fā)明的,現(xiàn)在看來(lái),遠(yuǎn)比這更有深意。它不僅給了學(xué)生一個(gè)展示不同創(chuàng)意的機(jī)會(huì),更重要的是,它暗示我們要適當(dāng)?shù)嘏沤鈮毫?。一個(gè)內(nèi)心陽(yáng)光的人,必須有自我調(diào)整、放松心態(tài)的能力。放下學(xué)業(yè)帶來(lái)的壓力,享受一下生活,是現(xiàn)代人最需要做的事。
O n?P a j a m a s?D a y ,? the?whole?school?felt? so?sleepy.?There?were? people?in?different?styles? of?pajamas—?dog,?cow,? bunny,?cat,?chicken,?banana,? apple,?etc.?It?almost?felt?like? Halloween,?when?people? wear?different?customs?to? school.?Except?that?this? time,?all?“customs”?were? cute?and?soft,?designed?to? make?you?sleepy.?It?was?like? throwing?yourself?into?the? softest?cotton?in?the?world,? not?worrying?about?anything.?
I?thought?Pajamas?Day? were?for?those?who?are?too? lazy?to?change?their?clothes.? But?after?that?day,?I?believed? it?is?a?way?to?relieve?stress? and?promote?creativity?of?the? students.?As?we?all?know,? school?can?be?very?stressful? sometimes.?Pajamas?Day?or? not,?we?need?to?find?ways? to?slow?down?the?beats?and? enjoy?ourselves.?
