Music

  I grew up with these. Time to pass it to the young.Been playing Vivaldi's "Winter" this morning when the baby was bathing. It ended up a happy bath.

Yann Tiersen, where were you twenty five years ago?

Leaving the City

Whenever I see night views such as these, I realize that I've spent so much of my life living in the city. And if there's something I like about the lifestyle here, it's the diversity of people and a more liberating culture: cities are melting pots of ideas. There's a genius somewhere there.

 For two weeks, I will surely miss this view at night. Can't wait for tomorrow. Julienne is having her first airplane ride- going to the province for the holidays. I love holidays.

Three A.M.

Book seen at my brother's office in the big house. I have my 3 a.m. experiences too, and I will not make nursing my daughter an excuse why I am still up at these hours. For some strange reasons, I love keeping awake just when everybody  is asleep.  Reading a book, updating my book, reading and writing letters. The silence is poignant. Beautiful.

Rambutan On the Front Seat

One of the reasons why life is worth living: juicy rambutan, fresh from the farm, bursting with sweet goodness. Definitely one of the few reasons why living in a tropical country is ever so delicious.
