I felt ecstatic. Longer than a moment but shorter than infinity. The unbounded freedom I felt as the soft evening sun kissed my face. The air; it was mildly cool. As cool as [...]
Happiness is overrated. And seriousness should make a comeback.
Physically, I’m busted. Emotionally, I’m drained. Mentally, I’m screwed. There ought to be a point of time in life when you shouldn’t even need to, want to or bother to explain. Yet, you still do. But what hurts deeper is when your silence opens up a flood [...]
I just arrived home after three days in Melbourne helping S & S move, inhaling the wonderful fumes of the city and having some restless sleeps. My mind is not at its clearest. But then, it has always been foggy.
Located on a central location in the city, the apartment where S & S moved into [...]

When I said that I’m not available, the computer decided to do it for me. I’m currently sitting in front of the house’s TV, hook up to the CPU to type this entry and return messages because the monitor died. Dieded. Just as well. Sigh.

If it seems like I’ve been away, I was away.
Spending a week in Melbourne with my aunts, I was thoroughly spoilt with food and good company. Needless to say, Asian food was high on the menu. I’ve eaten nothing but Asian food and aunts’ home-cooked meals. Except for the one day at Bridge Road’s [...]
There’s something romantic and poetic about autumn.

The falling leaves, golden and red,
Twisting and turning and fluttering in the wind,
Showering the earth that I walk upon,
Achingly beautiful.
