Calamity Strike One

Recently attended a dinner celebrating the wedding between two of my ex-classmates – lovely people I saw day in day out for 9 years between the ages of 7 and 15.

And of course, all the old faces who celebrated the festivities – haven’t seen all these guys since we graduated high school 8 years ago (and a few since primary school)! We’ve all moved on, circle of friends have changed, working different fields, some not even in the same country and yet when we all get together, it’s like we’re 17 again and nothing’s ever changed.

We’re not falling apart (yet), but wow. Time really flies.

良いお年を。

After weeks walking around with a scraggly birds’ nest on my head, I finally went and got a cut and dye job. Now I look like Allison Iraheta, albeit older, uglier, fatter and Chinkier. Pictures will surface, if my phone e-mail ever chooses to co-operate.

In lieu of the usual ‘Hello, world!’ crap that tends to annoy the heck out of me.
