innocentlyjaded- an ice-cold bottle of Mine Shine Milk Tea ♥ I was sad that they stopped selling this at 7-11 stores for a while, but now it's back and I'm a happy camper ^^
- your third shower for the day. Argh, this heat ;__;
Right. Some overdue memes

The TV, Computer,lethologica's rainstick, electric fan, my desk with its pile of... mess

[5] Do you nap a lot?
Nope. I sleep. Like a rock 0_o
[6] Who was the last person you hugged?
newpersia and lonelybusiness when we parted ways last Wednesday night ^^
[7] What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
I MISS BEING OBSESSED WITH SOMETHING ;__; Um.... Calligraphy is one right now. Along with getting to know my Tarot Decks better. PLAYING CHRONO TRIGGER FOR THE NTH TIME ON THE EMULATOR :3 ALSO, IKARUGA, a Japanese shoot 'em up for the Dreamcast (nice graphics, V. NICE SOUNDTRACK :3). And re-reading Blade of the Immortal (MAKIE)

"Hello. Tawag ka ******* para me tumawag sakin sa office, yeah" - from MM XDDD

[14] What is your favorite food?
Pizza! Pasta! Sweets! Pastries! (... don't make me choose just one XD)
[15] What is your favorite weather, and why?
Rainy weather. Whether it be a deluge or just a short shower, I like the cool air that goes with it. I also like the moment where a storm has just passed and everything is just bathed with this brilliant white light.

... it changes? /shot
[17] How are you?
Coping (with the heat, life, work, etc). Wondering what the next year holds.

The Ikaruga soundtrack (Go download!). Excellent fighter pilot music ;)

HANDWRITING MEME
1) Write your username.
2) Write the name of two of your favorite bands/artists.
3) Write "I ♥ ______". (This is to see how you write hearts.)
4) Write the name of your all-time favorite person.
5) Write the name of a recently favored person.
6) Tag six people to do this.
...I wasn't able to make an entry about it here, but my cousin died of heart complications arising from a heatstroke 2 weeks ago. His son called the house and my cousin and I went to the hospital (which was just 5 minutes away) just some hours after he died.
The body was on a gurney, parked behind a divider to keep it away from view from the people in the lobby. While we waited for the funeral people to take the body away, I... managed to take 3 pictures of my cousin's dead body.
Yes, it's weirding me out up until now. I'm typing this here because I transferred phone pics to the computer and saw those pictures again.
Why did I take those pictures? I... don't know. I just knew that I had to? I took them surreptitiously, of course, some 3-4 paces away from the body. I could have taken more, I actually wanted one shot of my cousin's face, but I didn't want to touch the sheet that covered him.
...
We buried him just this past Sunday. I volunteered to document the whole thing via video cam. I'm like that with family events and gatherings, I always want to be the one behind the camera, the one documenting the event. So maybe that was also an act of documentation on my part as well.
Hm.
