Right this moment

Kinda feeling down at the moment...
 
有些烦躁,有点心急,有些焦虑
 
Outside, the rain's pouring down nonstop. Didn't I just tell someone there's no rainy season in Toronto? Well not that I care, I actually enjoy when it rains. Walking in the rain is one of my greatest pastime. I'd probably go out while it's still raining. Okay how about now, and I'll let you know how I feel when I come back.
 

 
On my way back, a big tree toppled down on the ground, needless to say, brought down by the rain. The same one I had passed by a few hours ago. I did notice the branches were lower than they should be, cause I had to lower my head to get past.
It was the same tree, same day last week, I was sitting under it waiting for someone. Won't be there anymore. I guess sometimes things are meant to happen, the same way they are meant to never happen again. I glanced at the tree for the last time cause I know it won't be there tomorrow, but somehow, I know I will remember it being there.

About my mom, who was not supposed to have me...

 
 
Making the decision to have a child is momentous.
It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.
-elizabeth stone
 
My birthday's coming in 9 days. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
But this is not even about my birthday, it's really about the reason why I had it in the first place -- my mom, who's risked her own life to have me in spite of her serious heart conditions at the time. According to all the doctors she went to see, it's her life or mine and even worse, with her weak heart and various other cardiovascular conditions, I was gonna be a stillborn. Until this day, I still cannot quite imagine how much courage she must've had to make the decision to have me and it's like to ask you to give your life to another person. Would you say yes and truly mean it without any hesitation? Anyway my mom did. I always wonder if this has simply caught god's attention, cus something must've happened. Otherwise why there's nobody who can explain how she had miraculously managed to give birth to such a healthy baby like me. Anybody wanna give it a try?...
It might sound like a cliche to say I owe everything to my mom and how grateful I am and I'm only here because of my parents... I know and sometimes I don't even act in a way a grateful person should act. But with my whole heart, I'll say: thank you mom for being there every step of my way. You are my rock and I wish I'll soon become yours. I love you and I'll always do!
 
Did I forget to say? MY MOM RULES! If you've met her you'll know what I'm talking about.

What I found in the summer heat

 

When it's summer it's hot, when it's hot it's...

Have you noticed how nice it is to have something to look forward to, so nice you kinda wish it won't actually come or so to speak, cus you know once it's here it'd inevitably become the past and then the only thing left for you to do is to wonder if it really happened in the first place or is it just a dream you had on the first hot summer day of the year...

It was around 30 something celsus with a nice little breeze. Sitting out on the patio and chatting with a long-time-no-see friend got me into thinking about what a bless a friend could be. first thing came to mind, a friend is someone who can make you forget the noise, the heat and the heated crowd that keep coming your way and with whom you can enjoy a talk no matter how big/small it is and time becomes your biggest enemy as you are getting so comfortable and secretly wish there'd never be a halt to all this. With a true friend, you never need to worry about running out of thought and just sitting there with each other becomes the best part of the day, even though you realize, sadly, the time is running even faster then it typically does.

Maybe someone would say it's just me being sentimental and all, but I do believe as long as there's another human being on the planet earth who cherish friendship as much as I do, he/she would say, "gee, that's exactly how I felt when I was with friends".

When it's a hot summer day out there, don't forget a true friend is what you need to cool you down... or wait, isn't it the same person who warmed you up in the winter?? :P

The way I see it

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Since no plan's made for today, feel the urge to write a little, just something off the top of my head...(Looking around)...

Okay, about those "The Way I See It" messages on the Starbucks takeout cups. You know the ones... they're things like "The humble improve" and "Mother love is not inevitable. The good mother is a great artist ever creating beauty out of chaos." etc etc...

The way I see it: the opinions are harmless. Having a legal disclaimer at the bottom of the cups disavowing legal responsibility ruins the whole effect. They must be worried about being sued for opinions on love? What do you think? (To be continued...)

I took this picture because of the beautiful irony of it. You can't read the fish's quotes so well - the little fish says, "There is no justice in the world;" the middle fish says, "There is some justice in the world;" the big fish says, "This world is JUST." I love the picture - it makes a great political statement! I just think it's ironic that I found it on a Starbucks cup. :)

I drink Starbucks, by the way - as you can see by the picture of my coffee cup. Starbucks is fast, comfortable, convenient, friendly, and consistent.
I just notice there are several local coffee shops down the road that are going out of business because of the smooth services Starbucks offers and I can't help but wonder what those cafe's would say if they saw this cup?
Maybe something like, "There is no justice in the world"?
>>>===0> >>==0> >=0>

LOL...that was my feeble attempt at making a series of 3 progressively larger fish.

(THE END)

Love above all

I will have poetry in my life.
And adventure.
And love.
Love above all.
No, not the artful postures of love
but love that overthrows life.
Unbiddable, ungovernable,
like a riot in the heart --
and nothing to be done
come ruin or rapture.
Love, as there has never been in a play.
-gwyneth paltrow
as Lady Viola in
Shakespeare in Love

State of the Nation

According to Jake Halpern, three times more teenagers want to grow up to be a celebrity personal assistant than a United States Senator.

It's amazing to me that people would rather pick up dry cleaning than have it picked up for them.

Icing on the cake

Icing on the Cake

Got an adorable necklace for Christmas, a teeny silver cupcake with sparkle frosting.

I wore it today. All the girls I met thought it was, well, a cupcake. All the boys thought it was a little tub of buttered popcorn. And that is the difference between women and men.

You'll never know...


You'll never know
how much
your smile lights up the room
or your laughter fills my soul,
making all the little problems of the day disappear.

You'll never know
how much it means to me
when you do or say something
thoughtful and totally unexpected!
usually just at the moment I need it most.

You'll never know

how much pride I hold in my heart
for the person you are and the things you do!
for your strength and your gentleness,
your courage and your determination,
your accomplishments and your dreams.

You'll never know
how much I need you by my side!
in the best of times and the worst of times
and all the times in between.

It really doesn't matter where we are
or what we're doing,
as long as we're together to share it all.
I love you with all my heart and soul.


You'll never know how much.

My darling deserted space

 
Finally I'm back,to the safe harbor of my darling deserted space.
 
Got pictures taken at the Christmas reunion party posted.
 
Someone gotta remind me next time to bring my own digital camera so that
I don't have to constantly bother the cute little 's owner with more than one polite reminders to send me all the pictures that had anything to do with any part of me.
 
Not that I don't have the perseverance it requires, but as I was sending those request emails, I always say this to myself: Next time when I take pictures for someone else, they'll get them in so little time that they won't even need to figure out whom to ask.
 
Don't really have much else to say now except THE MSN SPACE HAS SO CHANGED! Might need some time to get used to it though.

The Not-So-Awful Truth

No hard feelings but it feels like someone's been picking on me quite a lot recently. FYI it's a little something called "game" and I did it just for fun. Was it weird? Sure it was! and maybe a little stupid as well. But it won't be half fun if it's not. I put the link there in case others wanna check it out. Just the way how I'd got it from someone else's blog in the first place. Fine if you don't.
And don't just faint yet. I know I didn't when someone was killing time (and himself for that matter), by attempting to finish 70+ episodes of HK drama, successful or not regardless.
Anyway, I guess the awful truth is that we all get bored at some point in our lifetime. The more important thing is to keep looking forward and have faith in yourself. And while you're at it, it's okay to play some weird games or watch some stupid TV drama.
P.S. Thx to that someone out there who cared enough to actually ask - of course nobody knows me better than myself. And as I said, no hard feelings???

Nickelback en France

Très bien, suite à la sortie du nouvel album du groupe All The Right Reason, par ailleurs excellent, les fans ont eu l'agréable surprise de voir que la France ne figurait toujours ps dans la tournée européenne qui débutera en mai.
Pour ceux qui sont intéressé Nickelback assurera la première partie de Bonjovi !
De ce fait, une petition vient d'être mise en ligne dans le but de les influencer à venir dans l'Hexagone Alors si vous êtes fan du groupe, pourriez-vous nous aider en signant la pétition. Cette tentative sera sans doute vaine mais bon qui ne tente rien, n'obtient rien non plus !

One Vodka Mudshake later...

Basically this is how I ended up being like last night. Had a Mudshake and then was "asleep" (or tipsy if you like to call it) on the couch. Mind you there's only 5% alcohol in it so I'm pretty sure I wasn't drunk. And I wouldn't write something about it  either if it's not for the sake of my drawing. Oh...Vooooodka... all of a sudden I don't think I liked it that much ...

The Agony over "26-30"

Do you believe there's that someone out there who's just perfect for you? The subject my friend brought up and got me thinking last night over dinner. Soulmate, two little words one big concept, a belief that someone, somewhere is holding the key to your heart and your dream house. All you have to do is find them, so, where is this person? And if you loved someone and it didn't work out, does that mean they weren't your soulmate? Were they just a runner-up contestant in this game show called Happily ever after?
And as you move from age box to age box and the contestants get fewer and fewer, are your chances of finding your soulmate less and less?
Soulmates...reality or torture device?

TURtlE Love

While the female rests in the water-like mass
The male relaxes on the grass
They are in love like they see fit
And they take their lives, bit by bit.
