Long Time No Bike
Yeah, it’s been a long, long while since I climbed onto a bike. I remember the last time was probably… a long time ago. Like five, or even six years. And I’m pretty sure it was that last triathlon I did. All memory I ever retained of my glorious biking experience has been of that … Read more
Tsunami Coming
It’s 5:45 am in Tokyo. I should be sound asleep, but I don’t know why/how I woke half an hour ago and couldn’t fall back into slumber. Must be the stupid air-con. Or, it could very well be my very sore throat. Or maybe I just went to bed too early. Any case, I got … Read more
2009 final ep: Life, and the Heart, Goes On
October. The month where I turned all of 32. But not before I made another trip to the NYC, my newly beloved (where I actually bumped into Mr Reed Space, jeffstaples himself, at the Katz’s Deli of When-Harry-Met-Sally and orgasmic-pastrami-sandwich fame!). It could have been the unstable emotional state, or it simply might have been … Read more
2009 ep 3: The Heart Breaks… Again
July. Marked my two-year anniversary in the Honks. Though it wasn’t anything significant. July was the peak of summer. Barbeque’d. Junk’ed. Beach’ed. Sun. Sand. Sea. Food. Cookouts. Eat-outs. Homemade black chicken soup. And then there was the swine flu that had us all under home imprisonment for a week. Schweeeet. August. One word sums it … Read more
2009 ep 2: The Heart Beats Again
April. It was no doubt work once again that put me on a 20-hour journey across the oceans to the great North America. A most memorable one, though, this trip was. Three whole weeks. Three new cities. Disneyland. Drunken nights. My favorite Japanese boys. My first Tods. Late-night runaways. Piggybacks. Dirty dancing. Dinners. Scrabble. Quincy. … Read more
2009 ep 1: My Love Runs Away
I know it seems thirty-one days late, but I think I’m still in good time to bid 2009 a proper farewell. A fond one, hopefully. Thirty-one days. That’s the number of days I have spent thinking about 2009, about the events, the people, places I’ve been, things I’ve done, things done to me. About how … Read more
Owls
There’s something about the owls today. It started with my very well-rested Eleanor-Keds with the all-over owl print, that I finally decided to bring for a walk outside. Then my favorite owl necklace – which I removed when I figured I might be over-doing the owl thing. Remembering how unwittingly delighted I was when I … Read more
New Year, New Start
Been toying with the themes and fonts for weeks, months. Also been too busy to even breathe, to catch up with myself. Most of all, been too lazy. Too… afraid too. Right. ‘Nuff of excuses. p.s.: I think I still don’t really like this theme/font. Urgh.
Still Me
I do have a past. I do have a history. Like everyone else. I feel kinda bad about ‘leaving’ my history behind. Like, I’m trying to shove it into some shoebox and hide it under the bed. But I’m not. Coming here, I’m just trying to find new inspiration, gain fresh energy, write about the … Read more
