Amazingly and shockingly patronizing words on the fb wall of an acquaintance… I think I only met him once.:
In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since.
"Whenever you feel like criticizing any one, he told me, "just remember that all the people in the world haven't had the advantages that you've had."

I dreamt of you today. Your smell was the most vivid part of the dream. I do wish I can dream of you every night though...

So Adeline was saying that I don't post here anymore. Which is true. But just click on 'my profile'. I am still, very faithfully, updating the list of musicals, plays and etc that I have been watching here. ^_^

내가 제일 잘 나가, which means I am the best, speaks to an overly pompous cock of my blood relative who thinks he is always the best, deserves the best, prioritize himself over others all the time, while preaching his religious humility and charity. Thus, he can move a strange woman into his bedroom without asking anybody, and use the car whenever he wants despite Variel's appointment with the vet or the groomer. I am speechless over his exemplary behavior purported to be shored up by his personal brand of religion.

Of course, this is absolutely possible, especially if I look at the do-gooder religious groups that forcibly tear children away from the bosom of their family on the pretext to kill the native and save the man. There is this universalizing thing about this religion that suck everything into its vortex. You can run, but you cannot hide. The thing is, I will not run, but I will poke lots of holes into it. Muah ha ha ha!!!

First of, お久しぶり！！！！

Most of my friends know that I am extremely 慢三拍, but do you know that I also react emotionally in the same way? Especially death of somebody close to me, be it my grandfather or spencer. So it was only just now that I am really reacting to the almost death of Variel. The catalyst being Ange's dog.
Yes, Variel has an evil side that surfaces when left absolutely alone at home. She wrecks the house. Decimates the rubbish bin, defecate on my pristine new white carpet and the tatami mat and etc. But whenever there is somebody with her, she is always on her best behavior. She is always calm and obedient. All my friends like her, especially since we can hang out together. We went traveling across Japan, karaoke, classes, cycling... all done together with me and my friends. She is never an imposition upon others (other than me, which is how it should be). And I am grateful for that. I am grateful that she can share the part of my life spent with my good friends. And that she is a friend to them too. This is one that I am truly appreciate, especially after last night, after seeing a badly behaved dog at a party last night.

I do hope to have more sad, mournful moments like this. Maybe it will hurt less when she actually dies.

My 30 year old unemployed brother who is currently attending bible college is basically cohabitating with his Malaysian girlfriend (who is equally unemployed and attending bible college) under my parents roof. I don't know what to say to him. Yes, my mum agreed to let him quit his job and let him live on her. She spoils her children, so that's fine. But to also support his girlfriend? Am I being a bad christian for being critical of this situation, or is my brother not glorifying God?

Anyhow, he gives me a bad impression of Christianity.
