Some problem was over there.
Some problem was over there, so I couldn’t flirt for the time being. And I couldn’t wink at men. I was afraid the deep sympathy that I felt for them could suddenly slip when I looked into their silly eyes.
Unstable...I could feel...
Only I know how weird my life has been lately. I was so calm when everything around me went extremely turbulent, but this calm was actually unexpected. When I said everything, I meant my family, my job, money, friends around me and whatever else could happen, did happen. I tried to keep myself out of those disturbances and hoped time could go by quicker.
In the evening I joined Megan and her friends and went to a local designer’s fashion show. Was this chic? ...maybe just a bit. Rachel came after the show, so we went to dinner. During dinner we argued and laughed over things, mixed up some business matters with tons of politically incorrect jokes. It's too funny and I couldn’t laugh more. Besides, the bottle of chardonnay was very nice.
Can you see? I said it's been a tricky life.

Rent - No Day But Today.
I like people who say it's an artsy fartsy bohemian movie. And I love it when he says "We're not gonna pay rent, 'cause everything is rent."
No day but today. Viva La Vie Boheme!

Not too young neither too old
In the past two weeks my friends and I have lingered in bars frequently and I liked watching people by doing so. However after these few days, we got something to worry about.
The thing is: a young lady of us might have fallen into an unwise game from where we had been and that's what I didn’t really want to see the results. I felt sorry about what's going on for the moment, because with the right beginning I really thought she would be very strong and fine, even though there were obviously too many tricks around. In my heart, I murmured to her and said ‘Poor girl, soon you may get very old in heart like I once used to be.’ but in truth I'm simply confusing myself and don’t know what to say. .
I just realized: women are always women; no matter how sensual we have been, we can be still emotional and sensitive and that could make us sick. Yes, we are silly. And I can only tell myself that maybe it’s better to let her try. You will never know if you really like to be somebody unless you have once been that person. Take the risks, play the games, and eventually find the person who you are truly willing to be. Just remember to be always brave. That is what life’s all about.
Now I realize I am at a perfect age that's not too young neither too old. Mature enough to take the responsibilities of my own decisions and still childish enough to keep getting tripped up over adventures in life. And I know I will never get hurt that easily again, now I can even follow a trip to dance. So don’t be afraid to fail, my dear friend, in the worst and the best possible scenarios, you could be just like me, and by then you will know what perfect means.
BTW, honestly, people do look stupid in bars. That's beyond question.

A quick note of words
Modernity
– the key difference between modernity and life in the past lay in its ‘ephemeral’, ‘fugitive’ and ‘contingent’ aspects, based on Baudelaire’s descriptions.
– a volcano under our feet, a profound sense of social alienation, living between the cogs of a huge machine, artificial and unidentifiable.
Modernism
– foregrounded the claim for art’s autonomy with respect to the wider modern condition.
– not the result of technical incompetence, but an effect of the pursuit of aesthetic independence, which was itself art’s survival strategy for the modern world.
Post- modernism
– purports to ‘reread’ virtually every imaginable sector of human enquiry from politics to art, history to geography.
– a meltdown of assumptions about social relations, psychic identities, the constitution of knowledge and the relationship of humankind to nature itself.

Nearly Out Of Mind
Finally Megan, Rachel and I met to discuss the ideal project that we've been talking about for a long time. And we went through the serious stuff with our regular foolishness, so lunatic...
Believe this or not? - If I keep sucking in bulk information like what I just did, I am gonna burst and shatter madly very soon.
And it is ironical that what I am doing now is to start a new business for someone else, not for myself, even though if lucky enough, it will sort of benefit myself in the end.
Exhausted… badly. Crazy? Truly.

A hilarious, great night added.
Thanks Ramon for his invitation to a great performance at Red Theatre last night. This was definitely something you shouldn't miss in Taipei. Bravo! A Moving Sound:
Later I went meet a gang of people at Carnegies. Happiness always doubles when we get together!
It seemed that I have finally started to bring these social engagements back into life. My brain was tangled with the scummy stuff, but now it's truly fun! ^.^
