The sorrows of young…. Newer posts →. The red and the black. May 10, 2010. Got real lazy,. No pics or thumbnails,. Mind’s a bit hazy,. A home by the sea. But to get to the point, well, I’d like to live next to the water. I won’t get into the economics of it. I’m sure it’d be possible one day. Not today, though it’s nice to think of it. Took this one down from my shelf again. Going to have another try at the labyrinth that is James Joyce’s opus. Still gonna study accounting, however. May 2, 2010. I get wo...

The sorrows of young…. God it’s so cold and I’m growing tired of poverty. Books I left with my ex-girlfriend. →. Many ways to say ‘I love you’. May 31, 2010. I branch away from my usual cryptic and self-absorbed material and try to write some interesting material. To be clear, chances are when one says I love you, all of these are encompassed. With intent to ensnare (ie, with strings attached). Children. You might conclude that love is, therefore, not for the individualist among us! But of course, the de...

It’s a bad habit | In the World
https://kaefka.wordpress.com/2010/10/16/its-a-bad-habit
The sorrows of young…. Further moments from Japan. Japanese Drama →. It’s a bad habit. October 16, 2010. To start something, stop it, and then take it back up again. You don’t know where you left of, why you were doing what you did, why you’re back again. It’s confusing. I seriously do not know why I was blogging. But I guess since I started it i’d better finish it. I get up at 5am. I believe in destiny. Why? View all posts by Shanghaijin →. This entry was posted in General. Further moments from Japan.

Here’s a list of books I left and my feeble attempts to remember their content. (Is an obsession with lists another mono-mania? 1 Marcel Proust — By way of Swann’s. The first book of Proust’s 6 volume modernist opus. A la recherche du temps perdu. 2 Milan Kundera — The book of laughter and forgetting. A series of inter-connected tales of love...

The sorrows of young…. It’s a bad habit →. Further moments from Japan. July 17, 2010. 1 A man waves a colourful fluro baton at pedestrians across a small intersection. Please, go this way, be careful, we are doing some construction work. He nods his head in a slight bow. And so it goes for the entire night. 2 Rain begins to fall and the baskets outside department stores (takashimaya, daimaru, isetan) begin to fill with umbrellas. 4 Staying on level 2, only 2 stories up. There is no G floor. 10 Vans mount...

Japanese Drama | In the World
https://kaefka.wordpress.com/2012/06/11/japanese-drama-9
The sorrows of young…. It’s a bad habit. June 11, 2012. Japanese Drama is great because it takes you away from your world where all achievement takes time. Where, there’s no guarantee of a conclusion, where despair is around every corner, where disillusionment is so easy. The characters are always forced to change. They’re put outside of their comfort zone, for example. 1 A broadway star goes to her rural hometown to teach a woman’s choir group. I am always reminded. How wonderful it is to have a con...

The sorrows of young…. Books I left with my ex-girlfriend. Further moments from Japan →. July 11, 2010. I find lists easier to maintain than a recount, they’re pointed and eclectic and allow me to be lazy without risk of exposure. So here goes. Enjoy. 3 A chinese man, who I shared a hostel with, studying japanese late into the night. 4 The homeless men who never beg. Enjoying the summer weather in the park, out on the streets. They used cardboard between their bodies and the rough streets. 9 Getting tire...
