Today is my birthday and I am happy. ^^

I dunno why, but for the past few years my birthdays were really unremarkable. I either slept the day away or just took a day off work and did whatever the hell I wanted. Nothing special to remember it really. But this year I noticed it's different, and again I can't explain why I've been grinning like an ( Read more... )

I just realized now that I hate shopping.

Don't get me wrong, I like splurging cash on stuff I really really want but what I hate about is the whole frustrating process that goes with it--getting out of the house, getting to the mall then finding out that it's bursting at the seams with so many people fighting over the same items.

This is so redundant but it's true --  I'm updating again after AGES of disappearing off the face of the blogosphere.

But I don't have enought time now. Watch this space though, got lots to write about--if you still care.

My friend Kokie just left for the States today. I didn't really realize the impact of it because she has gone out of the country before...and came back home again after a few months.

Girl, 11, loses hope, hangs herself

So goes the headline that shook me out of my exhaustion after work and made me read, fight back tears, and actually go out and write this entry (the pc at home's busted, but that's another story). I feel nothing but incredible sadness over what I have read, and disbelief that an eleven-year-old girl would be ( Read more... )

I love the title of this entry because it pretty much sums up my life right now.

Yesterday I watched Chirusoku no natsu aka The Stars Converge, a Japanese movie released in 2003. Junpei, the main guy in the story said he wanted to see North and South Korea reunited. His friend Ikuko on the other hand said that her life was a fool's paradise ( Read more... )
