Mommie dearest
No... this isn't going to be an epic rant or something hilarious done by my family (although both of them are entirely possible)... its just a simple story.
My mom has, since I was a baby, always told me about this story of when I was young. Apparently, when I was about 5, and she was pregnant with my sister, I used to bring her these Fefol tablets ( Read more... ) -
Speaking in tongues...
I've always had a fascination with languages. Ironically, coming from a multi-lingual country to the U.S. has only made me appreciate language that much more. There's a comfort in one's own language that, for me, English has never been able to provide.

Death and the maiden
Well... its been a while since I posted and there have been a lot of things going on. I went to Orlando and Chicago, but most importantly I met S. We haven't really talked since I met her over a week ago, but it was a very interesting encounter to say the least. We spent well over 4 hours together, and even though it was never awkward, it was ( Read more... )
