"Things, bodies and egos, events, situations, thoughts, emotions, desires, ambitions, fears, drama... they come, pretend to be all-important, and before you know it they are gone, dissolved into the no-thingness out of which they came. Were they real? Were they ever more than a dream?
A New Earth, p. 209, Eckhart Tolle

Answering...
Q: What item or product (if any) would you risk buying on the black market, if it became illegal to purchase it?
I found this question on one-minute writer. It's a very interesting question. I think the winner is pirated DVDs (though it's not "risky" to buy here)! Yet, it's still ILLEGAL. I know there shouldn't be any excuse, but there are lots of great movies that are still waiting on my list that I can or cannot watch in the cinema. Believe me but I haven't watched: Avatar, Sherlock Holmes, The Blind Side, Slumdog Millionaire, Precious, Up in The Air, Whip It, and I can continue the list on and on. I appreciate those directors and artists, that's the reason I don't want to buy pirated DVDs. It feels like robbing and I hate to dirt my hands. So, I found this tricky trick. I asked my bro to buy DVDs that I wanna watch since both of us are movie freaks. I know it's still wrong (and perhaps with bigger sin :p). Just assume this is my confession. I'm sorry!

Long time no write?
So, what brings me tonight to write in a room with starving mosquitoes after a long time pause? Of course coz I miss writing, I miss writing out my feeling, my complaints (definitely!). But for sure, I miss thinking and feeling!
These days we get carried away easily by our activities, don't you think? I've been going through these last two weeks like a half-dead body walking. Waking up in the morning and going sleep at night. No feelings, insights, thoughts involved. Boy, can't tell you how easily I am distracted with this whole activities and plans. It is addicted, though, I have to admit. The feeling of numb like nothing really matters, going through days without even noticing it has slipped away. Feeling so empty inside, that's scary.
Trying to guard and waking myself up now and then, focusing on what really matters. Thanks God! :) Ok, let's breathe!
Now, let's talk sth bright here. I watched Julie & Julia this week. There is one recipe that definitely made mouth flooded by my saliva-Bruschetta with Tomatoes and Basil. I've got the recipe! Surely it's worth trying! I want to try Beef Bourguignonne too. But surely I'm gonna burn my house with it too! Berle?
And this is my waiting list book! Dying to read, cook and burn!
bon appetit?

Resolution Result
One of my resolution items is making a photography blog. So I have been working with it, taking pictures everyday and post a pic a day. Hopefully I'll make a time to post a picture daily. Though I am still an amateur photographer and taking pictures with my pocket camera, but hopefully you enjoy it and give suggestions and support! Jia you! Please visit showmeyourpose.blogspot.com
People whom I'm gonna miss the most!
She's Vanessa, my student. A very cheerful and stubborn girl. I feel something was missing if she didn't attend the class.
Hmm, what can I say about Winsen? I'm sure you can tell from the pic that he's a very cute, smart boy. His class was next to mine, but I liked to visit his class just to tease him.
Doesn't she look like the girl in Candy Candy or Pansy? I called her Little Diana since she resembles the girl version of Princess Diana.
PS: to parents whose children were taken pics w/o permission, I am sorry for not be able holding myself from taking your children's pictures since they are just adorable.

Postponed Christmas Post!
Ok, I know today is year 2010!!! But I just realized there are so many pictures and stories that I haven't told. So please spare a day to tell some old stories of 2009!
First, it's been awhile since I haven't showed off my art and craft, so here they are:
I found joy when my students like my craft.
