lilac binds, purple sky.
i've finished dinner. yum it was.

anyway, backtrack to before dinner. i was getting ready for dinner and i passed the window of my parents' room. stared out to search for stars, but there were none.
but there was such a wonderful, gentle breeze. and yes, staring thru the lilac binds, the darkpurple/maroon sky matched so perfectly. the nightair was cold and i wanted to stand there and, stand there forever. splendid. =] cheesygrin.

it's chinese new year, it's supposedly the festive season for the chinese. my parents are trying to educate me about chinese customs/history/etc again. but at that very windy spot i was in, im beginning to feel im missing something. something besides a festive atmosphere who's arrival i should be anticipating tmr when new year officially kicks in.

am i missing someone? (no. not frost king. yet) the folks and family around the globe? hm..dont think so. im missing a part of myself. it's too chim to figure out. perhaps i shld take that spot by the lilac binds more often. to be carried away by drifts of reflection and memory. [aiyoh. that's so emotional]

[pause to go and bathe]

k. i bathed with pomelo leaves. daddy-o says he remembers how grandma always gave the seven kids of hers pomelo leaves to bathe with. it's suppose to be this 'solid' tradition that was never broken. so as his daughter approaches '17', daddy-o and mum decides to give me this experience. fun. crushing some non-existent scent out of the leaves.

as i was gazing at the leaves, tearing them up, i thought they looked really pretty. come to think of it, i think leaves are so oftenly prettier than flowers. of course, some flowers are nice, but, i've never been a person who appreciates those flower exhibitions blahblah. dont u think trees are prettier? they look sturdier and...it's a more solid kind of 'big' beauty. but i still like getting flowers. and i like, above all, dried flowers. Dead flowers, if you have to say. im such a difficult person to understand =] you wonderfool.

wine tonight wasnt as gd as the 1 jan wine. im planning to delve into beer soon.
-hiccup-, heh.
