early but beautiful

I received an early Christmas present from Japan




this little whale makes a very calming sound

and look, a perfect present for someone who rants about ice cream at 1a.m.




Thank you, the wind chime will sing under the air conditioner
and the socks will help me get rid of all the bad stuff in my body through my pores.

All of you!

Today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women!

Buy a white ribbon everyone! :)

my mentally-disordered love

Ok, so I love green tea.

hot drink, cold drink, biscuits, lollies, ice cream,
soap, deodorants, basically
in any form.
if green tea asks me to marry it my answer will be
YES YES YES YES YES







at Gelatissimo we used to have green tea ice cream
but the boss got rid of it
because everyone who works there
hated it with passion

and in the past few months lots of customers asked
where it went
and every time they asked me that
i made a really really sad face
that they ended up giving me their sympathy

so a few weeks ago i said to my boss
why don't we bring it back?
and everyone who heard me instantly pulled a face
like, the kind of face that creates a lot of unpleasant wrinkles

but i stood up for myself
and told everyone i love green tea
I LOVE GREEN TEA!
YES YES YES YES YES!

impressed with my brave obsession my kind boss 
decided to bring green tea back
just for ME
eeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

and today it arrived
ah the beautiful colour and the perfected taste
ah.

my workmates said
'green tea tastes like grass and dirt'
'green tea tastes like rotten fish'
'that flavour is fucking retarded'
'you Asians are crazy'
'it tastes like an old man's penis'
'Jae is disgusting'
and lots of other things that are less interesting

so i understand that this could be the most boring &
meaningless blog entry for many of you

but i just really wanted to say
that i really love green tea

YES YES YES YES YES

GREEN TEA ICE CREAM

I HAVE ANOTHER REASON
TO LIVE!!


EEEEEHAAAAA!

a kid

Sitting in the boat without rowing
I looked up at the bridge above us
and saw little people crossing it
they looked so tiny I took a video of them

I came home and watched it on my laptop
on a much bigger screen
and realised the little boy in a black cap
raised his middle finger, at me



this is what being a paparazzi must feel like

unfortunate realisation

I realised
that I cannot row a boat


This photo was taken before I realised that fact.
