The Complete Substitute for All Forms of Sociability

The more you value something, the less you should hold on to it. If you can hold it in your hands, it will soon run out. If it's intangible, it was never meant for keeps.

All the birds are chirping but only a few are wondering: How the heck are you supposed to chirp without any lips?

1. The alarm clock gave a nasty electronic beep , forcing him into wakefulness. Even so, he did not open his eyes right away, trying not to remember that it was somebody else’s alarm clock, that he was sick with hangover and that he just buried his father yesterday. But it all came pounding back -- the funeral, the reception held at the hotel, the drunken night out. The woman next to him finally reached over and turned off the alarm. He kept his eyes shut. He remembered the frenzied drunken sex, the kind only two strangers could have, but he did not want to open his eyes and see her.

I especially love Nodate's interactions with Osawa Eriko, the character played by The Queen's Classroom star, Amami Yuki . I revi

Last night, I had dinner with my uncle and a whole bunch of people from his extended family. My godmother is home from the US and good familial decorum dictates that I stuff my face with food show my face at the dinner table for an hour or so. Naturally, one of the topics of conversation is the Bar Exam. The fact that I'm a bar reviewee defines me at the moment. It's like people introduce me and go like, "This is (insert nickname here). She's reviewing for the bar." And horror of horrors that's also how I answer when random people from the past ask me how I'm doing. Somebody, shoot me in the foot, quick! In other news: "I come from Planet Sparkle. After I evolve, I will kill you all." ~ Trunkfish (from here ) Too funny not to post. Now I've got my older cousin posting a message from my other uncle on my Facebook wall, saying that I have to "become a lawyer, a real lawyer" (yes, commas and all). Read a little differently w
