A Penny For Thoughts
Yuriko and I had a dinner meeting to plan for the upcoming Ski Tour. On the sides, we talked about my shopping spree in SFO and my passion for constantly changing my fashion sense (depending on the season). Out of the blue, she said 'I like the idea of having the power to buy whatever pleases my eyes. On the other hand, you find pleasure in thinking hard about how you'll express yourself..I get tired doing that. I just want to shop.' I'd easily give a penny on this.
Got the chance to watch the live coverage of the Olympic's ladies' figure skating event. When the camera zoomed in on unbeatable World Number 1 Irina Slutskaya (Russia) just before she went for her short program, I caught her giving out a huge sigh. It must have been due to tremendous pressure. I thought to myself, even the Gods deal with pressure but the self-believers walks away with victorious smile (and a fist on the air). Another (pathetic) thought: HB is right. I love analyzing what I see. Is this a flaw???
The disaster that hit Leyte is all over the news. I pray for all those souls who were buried underneath the rubbles. Nature always has the last say on everything. I guess that's why we need to pay it more respect.
Thanks for visiting!
