everyday, it's you i live for.
sch is nth but endless rounds of bridge tai-tee blackjack everyothercardgameimaginable. i read "The Song of Silver Frond" today - God knows what drove me to read stuff by catherine lim but im glad i did it nonetheless; excellent story.
it's a cautionary tale that explores the endless magnanimity of a love (somewhat) forbidden - its aftereffect? poetry in motion. the moral of the story (if any) is simple:
Traicit et fati litora magnus amor.
A great love can cross the bounds of fate.
and hmmn. it even leaves a fine imprint of locality (like strong aftershave) in one's memory. or whichever secluded corner of our minds that various plot bunnies frm all bks we've ever read (& ever will read) are stored. hence, this bk is highly reccomended with generous helpings of corrinne may seranading thru yr stereo..
anyhow.
the gears have already been set in motion; tickets have been booked. i hope i come back.
pray for me. please.
