多事之秋

Day 10,578. Many things have happened in such a short amount of time. Autumn looks to be  a busy season.

An amusing thing, Monday 3 Oct: I learnt that 03.10.11 was etched on Ed’s pocket watch in Full Metal Alchemist.

A worrying thing, Tuesday 4 Oct: Papi had fever, got off work early and took a day off from work the next day (technically, it’s supposed to be a day off, since it’s Wednesday). As of today, his coughs make me worry to no end. Thank God he’s already better though, through prayers and medicine. Although I hope he’s not so stubborn as to refuse a check-up. In any case, I hope all my family are in good health always; even the greater family, you know. Better yet if it’s all-round health: physically, mentally and morally healthy people make for happier days, to anyone. Oh, this day’s also my lunar birthday (29th, or 30th in Chinese calculation). I had a dream (in the early morning) where I saw Lee Minho (as Gu Junpyo, or the style basically), but I’m not sure if he saw me. He’s very tall. It was raining today, and we had no internet. Are the heavens actually crying for what (would) happen on the 5th (this is of course post-event ‘wisdom’, if any)?

A saddening thing, Wednesday 5 Oct: Will forever remain as the day the universe was (further) dented by the passing of one of the greatest men I know who graced the current world and time I’m living in now. Steve Jobs will undoubtedly be remembered by many, and maybe, the phrase ‘the apple of my eye’ would constantly remind me of him now (albeit on a different meaning). Still, I’m glad that he inspired so many people and left us with so much goodness and beauty. I hope we can all gather something good out of this and become better people, people who matter, people who ‘make a dent in the universe’, people who ‘follow their hearts and intuition’. Thank you Steve. I must remember to send an email to rememberingsteve@apple.com

A coincidental thing, Thursday 6 Oct: Found out Hyun Bin’s in Jakarta. It’s like, we’re on the same city! For a moment, it made me wonder how things work.

A sobering thing, Friday 7 Oct: Of course, today brought me back to Earth, although I feel all in all I should thank my blessings. I should’ve known the time it took to do all sorts of things for visa application (and no I didn’t meet Hyun Bin – who’s supposedly still in the city at the time). But all in all, I had a great starbucks green tea latte in the morning, got a not-so-bad visa photos, finished a productive gym session, and saw a Nadal match while on the cross-trainer, had a very nice vegetarian bachang at home with delicious animal biscuits that’s an old childhood favourite. Only thing is I’m still constantly worried about health, security and all things in between and beyond.

♥: Didn’t get to practice much languages, but someone corrected my tenses on twitter and also watched an efficient 1 DVD of the Korean drama I borrowed from the KCCI. Thank God for KCCI :) 그리고 그를 늘 생각해, 이름도.

絆:ちょっと心配しくて、悔しい気持ちも持ちますが、どうしようもし難いです。ただ、心を込めて祈ります。そして、皆の健康、自分の状況も、心配しきれない。本当に迷いの羊のようと考えさせられます。

 

神様、どうぞ宜しくお願いします。
