It’s sweet to see that people actually miss you… Not so much “you” as a person, but your writings… I admit, I’ve been pretty lazy blogging since the new year began and I just realized we are almost done with January… How scary is that?! It’s not actually the days of the year passing; it’s more like the days of our lives are flying by so quickly… So quick that it becomes hard to grasp hold of them in a way you want… Wondering whose life we are really living… Yet another challenge!

I’m reading a lot these days… Jumping from one book to another… A lot of poetry, actually, to the point that I print a few to read on the train back to home everyday… They have an incredibly calming effect on me… You just read them, and read, and read… There’s no story (as such) to follow and no ending to look forward to… For me, they summarize a moment’s enjoyment…

I’m planning to watch a lot of movies… Foreign, Hollywood, Black-and-White, you name it… I’ve actually begun participating in few movie clubs initiated by friends… My favorite mode of watching films, however, is snuggled up in my tiny den, accompanied with sushi, hot green tea and an artsy golden oldie…

Oh, and have I told you about my favorite new snack: almonds with dried cranberries?! How bizarre you would think, right? It’s very tasty, though… Especially when the flavors melt together in your mouth at same time, washed down with white tea in the end… 🙂
