need to take more photos. must make habit of carrying camera on self at all times. perhaps need special occasions at which to take photos of self with others. then again, as always, i wish for a personal photographer to document the moments to remember.

It’s Thanksgiving break, and I have the apartment all to myself. I can’t say I don’t enjoy this, having all this space be exclusively mine for the next few days. Being alone makes me slow, more contemplative, quiet. And since time affords me the leisure, I have decided I am going to read the book [...]

It’s nice to have spare time to do something I used to do, and would do more of with leisure.
Almost Spring

Spring is approaching, even though I still see grey. Waiting is abound with uncertainty, and I can’t say I like it one bit. The needle keeps spinning and in no particular direction, I lift a foot but place it back down again. The forces are acting on me and it’s most unsettling the way it [...]
