I recently relocated for a new job and am thoroughly loving the
tropical weather,
even if this town might leave a bit to be desired culturally. on
balance life is good. I like to think that I'm at least
open minded enough that
no one needs to hide anything from me. Given what's been confessed
to me, I'm pretty sure that if nothing else, I've accomplished
that.
I guess I should write more, but i also have a
short attention
span
Contrary to what most people think when they see my pictures sans
hair, I am not a
hitman.
And yes, cape_diem is spelled right. plucking the day is for the
boring and dull
work. play. introspection. travelling alot.
flying lessons needed to be put
on hold. trying to be a less pathetic swimmer and cross the 1km/day
mark in the pool, not there yet.
getting into a lot of amatuer
photography, trying to figure out
where I want to direct my efforts. what I lack in artistic skill I
basically try to compensate for with a good body (
camera body) and better lenses.
it works and it doesn't.
also just starting to learn
chinese on my own (this has kind of
stalled). hope to get up to my
japanese ability within one year. not
sure how successful this will be. now developing my own business
out here and loving every minute of that.
travelling.
alot. Singapore is great, for that and my passport is bursting at
the seams. Looking forward to some time in the states though
work. play. lying about what i'm good at.
my shaved head or some outlandish configuration of hair. and
eyelashes. apparently my eyelashes are spectacular.
