"Still dark. The same crescent moon is floating there. Strange that, viewed from one spot in the predawn city, such a big solid object could be hanging there free of charge."

"your life's an occasion--rise up to it."

holidays are a time for catching up. met up with a bunch of old friends and hopefully, more to come.

liuhui: "is it so weird that i want to find a part-time job as a gardener???" yup, some people haven't changed, and i'm glad for that!

"huh? what? what did you say?" it was a night of massive miscommunication, but fun, nonetheless, picking our brains over the ever so 'thought-provoking' questions that ql posed (i.e "does everyone's s_ _ _ smell the same???") and sharing news about classmates et cetera.

couch-potatoing at yinling's yesterday was gratifying. we watched 5 movies and inhaled a truckload of chips and junk. highlight of the day was the classic, home alone. put us in the right state for a good dose of christmas cheer and romance that the next few movies provided.

now it's approaching monday again...which means work.

"It's an irritating reality that many places and events defy description. Angkor Wat and Machu Picchu, for instance, seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about. For a while after, you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where you've been and what's happened. In the end, you're just happy you were there--with your eyes open--and lived to see it."
-Anthony Bourdain, The Nasty Bits

i couldn't agree more with the paragraph above. that's why i don't really like to blog about my trips or extremely important events in great detail. whenever i start, i'll end up deleting the entry cause it never seems to do whatever that i saw/happened any justice.

bourdain's an extremely good read, i must say. (thanks, efei!) it's giving me energy boosts during this dreary period of exam prep. i really enjoy his tongue-in-cheek style of writing and wry humour.

exam's start tomorrow! i know it'll be over in a blink of an eye, and i cannot wait.
