[Sunday October 4th, 2009 3:33pm] bought a guitar! [ 4 ] hoopy froods went farrr out

[Saturday May 30th, 2009 11:57pm] whoa, had an exhausting day. went out for eggs and baccy breakfast in the morning, then came home and snuggled/read the interwebs/etc for a while, then went to watch Star Trek and tried out a new place for dinner. Star Trek was pretty awesome, I was wanting it to last longer. Funny and well-paced but it didn't feel epic enough. They got rid of the bad guy way too easily. I want to watch a sequel already. We went to a place on Main Street called Hawker's Delight. It's basically a little hole in the wall that serves malaysian/singaporean food. the food wasn't as strongly flavoured as the stuff back home but it was pretty delicious. super cheap too, at least by vancouver standards. :D also if you go to a singaporean/malaysian restaurant here, you can order satay at $2.50 a stick i think.

[Wednesday May 6th, 2009 10:56am] Marcel's mom's latest coup: coming over uninvited, ransacking the whole house, leaving unwelcome gifts of her (almost-finished, almost-expired) food in our fridge, stealing my tampons, and leaving pee and blood on our toilet seat. oh, and she thought no one was home. two-faced bitch. two-faced is not the least of it.

Not feeling comfortable in your home is the worst [Tuesday April 21st, 2009 6:28pm] Houses here are so revolting. Almost every house I've been to has had bits of twigs and dried mud and crumbs and unidentified sticky patches on the floors, heavy dusty furniture, windowsills coated with grime, kitchen counters covered with trash and clutter and left-out food and sinks full of dirty dishes. Maybe I'm being over critical, maybe it's a cultural thing, maybe I should be more tolerant - but it's revolting and also INFURIATING when it is in MY HOME. So far the stereotype of lazy dirty north americans is holding strong for me. [ 2 ] hoopy froods went farrr out

cinnamon rolls [Sunday February 22nd, 2009 5:30pm] we made cinnamon rolls yesterday! They turned out delicious. Warm and gooey and awesome, just like the rolls you buy at those little cinnamon roll franchises... I never knew it was so easy to make them before. tonight we will create PIZZA.

[Saturday August 9th, 2008 11:34pm] I'm sitting in my room without any lights on, the night outside is grey and blue, dirty-looking and clean-smelling. It rained this afternoon. The window by my desk is open and my gauzy turquoise curtains are flipped up on my loft bed so it's like a big hole in my room, a hole to the outside. I stay indoors too much, breathing my air over and over, doing the same things again and again. In Singapore, the outdoors is raw and earthy and humid. In Buffalo, in the winter, when the heater makes your air thick and dry, opening the window is refreshingly cool. In the spring it's hard hard wind, in the early summer the heat on your skin makes you feel like a sunflower, quickly unfolding like you see in time-lapse photography. In less than 10 days I can kiss Marcel whenever I want, and I can stand in his arms endlessly knowing that for a while, at least, there's nothing else I need to do. Sometimes I feel like nothing ever changes. Feels like last year I was sitting here, windows open, waxing poetic about the outdoors filtering into my room. I don't get out a lot so the outdoors is relatively poetic for me. [ 0 ] hoopy froods went farrr out

[Thursday July 31st, 2008 11:59pm] I'm physically so tired after nearly a week of maybe 4 or 5 hrs of sleep per night, but my mind won't stop going. Obviously I'm not using it enough, so I'm going to find something for me to puzzle over and practice concentrating with. Like tomorrow. [ 0 ] hoopy froods went farrr out

Reasons for moving [Thursday July 31st, 2008 7:25pm] Besides $5 pints of Ben and Jerry's, I get to play with Marcel's sexy new iphone. :D [ 0 ] hoopy froods went farrr out
