They did not care. But not the fact. I like to think of them. Silica and lime,. I like to think of them. By wind and wheels. From sluggish trance,. 2015: My year in books. Here’s the list of books that I’ve read for 2015 (in the order that I read them):. The Well of Ascension. The Hero of Ages. The Way of Kings. Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage.

To a friend | 遠くへ
https://absolute0.wordpress.com/2014/04/07/to-a-friend
April 7, 2014. It was a “fortuitous happenstance” that you were at the mall a few weeks ago. You were planning to watch a movie with your friends and you were looking at the movie posters when I spotted you. I couldn’t recall the movies that were showing then but I do recall they were mostly crap. We talked about med school and how you wanted to be a neurosurgeon. I told you I couldn’t imagine your sausage-y fingers fiddling on someone’s brain. I didn’t know which movie you and your friends picked. Join ...

Today is the first day of the rest of my life | 遠くへ
https://absolute0.wordpress.com/2006/08/05/today-is-the-first-day-of-the-rest-of-my-life
Today is the first day of the rest of my life. August 5, 2006. I woke up early this morning. I wanted to transfer all my belongings to my new place by noon. And I would’ve wanted to accomplish it without a trace, without a sound but that was beyond all possibilities. The “logistics”, however, went well. I also got to donate the clothes that I no longer use to Red Cross, which is good. Super perfundo on the early eve of the month. Pingback: Here’s to twelve years of blogging 遠くへ.

Trash talk | 遠くへ
https://absolute0.wordpress.com/2013/07/04/trash-talk
July 4, 2013. They could not grasp the enormity of the task. Perhaps all they imagined was some scrubbing here, some dusting there but most of it, in fact, involved tchotchkes and thingamajigs that have accumulated through time. Each piece of junk had a story to tell, some of those stories weren’t even mine, but whatever story they told, I had to let them go. China and cutlery: they had to go. Oven toasters in disrepair: they had to go. Fragments of chores in suspended progress: they had to go.

2014: My year in books. January 4, 2015. Last year, I became friends with a guy who also enjoys reading. He introduced me to Goodreads which is a social cataloging website for booklovers. So I created an account and I participated in the yearly reading challenge. I resolved to read 25 books for 2014. Here’s the list of books that I’ve read (in the order that I read them):. The Orphan Master’s Son. The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency. Tears of the Giraffe. Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell. You are commenti...

June 2, 2014. 8220;Today’s a perfect day for a watermelon,” she thought as she fished for a slice from the cellophane packaging and broke off a chunk. She took a bite, red liquid dripping on her chin, and stared at the remaining piece in her hand. “If I were a watermelon, I’d be round. Red inside. And juicy.”. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Anatomy of the cookie, cracker and biscuit | 遠くへ
https://absolute0.wordpress.com/2003/04/20/anatomy-of-the-cookie-cracker-and-biscuit
Anatomy of the cookie, cracker and biscuit. April 20, 2003. My friend and I happened to ponder on one of the universe’s mysteries: the difference between a biscuit and a cracker. Weeks ago, we were eating biscuits and he asked about the difference between the two. We’d usually just eat them right away without giving a thought on their distinction. I asked another friend of mine. Perhaps she’d know the distinction. According to her, a cracker is a biscuit that “craaaaacks” while ...Mars, can you hear me?
