Our Lives
“So that’s how we live our lives. No matter how deep and fatal the loss, no matter how important the thing that’s stolen from us—that’s snatched right out of our hands—even if we are left completely changed, with only the outer layer of skin from before, we continue to play out our lives this way, in silence. We draw ever nearer to the end of our allotted span of time, bidding it farewell as it trails off behind. Repeating, often adroitly, the endless deeds of the everyday. Leaving behind a feeling of immeasurable emptiness.”
written by Haruki Murakami
of memory and intelligence
may i learn how to cherish and utilize the two wisely…
“You have to begin to lose your memory, if only in bits and pieces, to realize that memory is what makes our lives. Life without memory is no life at all, just as an intelligence without the possibility of expression is not really an intelligence. Our memory is our coherence, our reason, our feeling, even our action. Without it, we are nothing.”
- Luis Buñuel
A letter to my second skin
Dear second skin (aka makeup),
We’ve known each other for a good number of years now. We’ve been through our fair share of good and bad together. I thank you for the days when I was down with the troubles of life. It was you that gave me the boost of confidence to continue to stand strong against the unforgiving eyes of others. In you I have come to place unfailing faith in, and do not see myself able to part ways with.
I apologize for not providing you with the perfect canvas these recent days. The lack of sleep, stress and booze have definitely taken it’s toll on my first skin. Yet I beg that you continue to stand by my side, just like how you have for so many years, and be my mask and shield through this confusing stage that I am experiencing.
As a token of appreciation for all that you have done for me, I have made my next appointment with my dermatologist. Hope this is reassuring news to you.
Lots of love,
Me
Is this wrong?
This must be a mistake given that I’m so uncomfortable and at edge about it… If it’s the right way to be, I should not be so bothered!
Should we?

The thing I hate most about work, is the overwhelming amount of retards I come in touch with…
莫文蔚
其實,在那從頭到腳都可以做代言、散發著獨特女人味的驅殼下,莫文蔚有著很高的音樂造詣和情操。
