love in the ice
Chilling to the bones, icy cold. This song still makes me tear at the climax. Personal favourite since 2008. 冷たいその手 君のせいじゃない 幼き日々ほった 傷抱え 誰かを愛すること 恐れてるの 言葉の裏側 背を向けて 抱きしめた心が 氷のように そっと溶け出す 誰もが誰かに愛される為に この世に命を煌(きらめ)かせるのさ それがもしも僕なら もう一度君の心を 永遠(とわ)の優しさで 暖めるよ… 運命の悪戯(心を痛めても) その涙の先には ひとすじの光が(闇の中舞い降りて) 僕らは気付くさ 苦しいほどに強く 感じあえる 人の温もり 誰もが持ってる哀しみや孤独 癒してもらえる場所探している SO… 君にはその場所が ここにあるさ 恐れないで もう迷わないで 僕が守る 切ないほど(my heart )美しい 愛だから(Don’t be…

169. rain on the roof and instant coffee
“Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and contraceptives… and to the “good life”, whatever it is and wherever it happens to be.” – Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga…

162. urban picnic
Introducing, the best things that happened to me in the University: Gardens by the Bay is really pretty! Just less so in the hot sun and erratic weather, thus we consumed the picnic goodies beside the ticketing booth like a boss. I need to go there again in the night with the lights up! What…

153. Paris and Winterson
“She was a committed romantic and an anarcha-feminist. This was hard for her because it meant she couldn’t blow up beautiful buildings. She knew the Eiffel Tower was a hideous symbol of phallic oppression but when ordered by her commander to detonate the lift so that no-one should unthinkingly scale an erection, her mind filled…

o92. photodiary (with gratitude)
Completed my last dance session with the KK Hospital Staff, and I think I’ll be seeing them again very soon! They’re such good role models for me although I’m there to guide them in dance- some of them aren’t at an age where you’d expect them to bounce along to hiphop or kpop songs. Nonetheless…

o89. Julius Caesar
At a rate of one Shakespeare play a week, my last semester as an undergraduate definitely isn’t easy (that’s just for one out of 6 modules I’m taking). Am owing it to Literature that I’m really enjoying this sem – am reading non-fiction for academic purposes and getting my As way more frequently than I…

o85. daddy’s birthday
Celebrated Daddy’s birthday in advance. Everyone’s schedules are so tight, we only get this one Sunday evening. Due to immigration issues when he came over from Taiwan, dad has 2 birthdays. How cool!! Overdosed on sugar and carbohydrates. Major food coma. Wish you didn’t have to grow old, dad. Stay…
