Thousand Leaves 2.0

For some reasons, Shion tends to write some unreadable notes from top to bottom, which looks like the classic way of writing! He still hasn’t started to learn to write in kindergarden yet. May be it’s his drawing!

Tomorrow will announce the coming of December and the countdown of the end of 2008. I’m actually preparing for any changes to come: today I bought the flowers for my wife, and at the same time telling myself, life will be much dull without changes.

Yesterday I watched “Angel” and a Japanese manga-based Korean production movie, “Renri no Eda.” The latter was kind of comical and how should I say, you can’t be too logical about why this is like that and why that is like this, because it is hard to make sense for some part of it. Though, as an entertainment, I think it’s ok.
 
“Angel” gave me a strong impact, and how the story was produced and how it ended. It is some movies that I would think to be considered “good” from the point of my literature definition. The purpose of the setting that was set back to the times where media wasn’t still as influencing as now makes me recall of Stephen King’s time setting as well; always the times of the past but not much of present. It’s something that strikes me. The past and the freshness.
 
Then I rented the soundtrack of Dreamgirls and Beyonce’ B’day. Shion has been “shaking” all the while whenever his listens to the song.

It’s autumn here in Japan. Gradually I am doing some of my gardening and trying to add more greenery at home. I too have my small pot in the office, which I got it for 100 yen with glass pot with it! I went out for flowers just now. Feel to have some autumn colour in the house. As seen in the picture, almost no green. About 1000 yen, Is it cheap? I don’t know, but I have chosen that for the sake of November, the autumn colour.

First time I have this dish with quail eggs. Last time we ordered sweet and sour pork, it was more red-like, today somehow it’s more fried pork-like, and with quail eggs. Depends on mood, huh? Whatever, but it tasted great!

It’s been a long day. Went to 100 yen shop got my gardening stuff. Came back and worked like a dog at the veranda. More pots and plants now. The interior? Let’s see if they survive.

Made apple wheat tea. Served with the two cups just bought today. Supposed to be soup cup. Whatever.

My wife is doing some sewing for some kindergarden’s play. Shion will debut his play next month. What is your role? Mr. Beetle as in “Thumbelina.”

My, Shion is bullied by his Taiwanese kindermate and still can’t say “no” or “stop it.” Can he make it??

I got my ironing to catch up.

Don’t they? Well, if it is in Malaysia, I would think it is very common, but in Japan, though I never thought that there aren’t any fake staff around in Japan, somehow, I would think this is just a typo-mistake rather than a fake t-shirt for kids. What do you think?

This is the photo taken in the flight from Narita to Hong Kong. Shion was completely absorbed in it. I had uploaded all the photos on flickr.com, somehow didn’t have time to put the captions and explaining the photos. Lazy is the objective.
