Papa & Katya on New Year's Eve

Went around on my bike on New Year's Day morning

 It was so quiet and smoggy.

My niece Miel's third birthday

 

 I got her a bowling set and she throws the ball at the pins like a baseball.  That's me at the right with the holiday fat.

Going back to work

 

 

My new office space has a Christmas Forever corner.

Laptop, ige's drawing of my old office space, paper clips in a film container, mouthwash, glue, and a wooden holder of assorted notes, brochures, and bookmarks (if you want a styro-free bookmark I will gladly give you one, as long as well, you pledge to be styro-free).

My Mangyan-crafted purse and belt, and memos on the wall.

The past few days have also been tumultuous in a not-so-good way, but I'm really hoping things will get better as the new days come.  After all, me being me would simply not let bad vibes ruin the rest of what could be a very good year ahead.

i want to ride my bicycle

i bought this book about a woman who, in 1894, traveled around the world on a bicycle. 

it makes me want to change my daily work schedule from 8am-5pm to 10am-7pm just so i can ride my own bicycle every morning.  good thing tomorrow's a saturday, and i can zoom around our village in a non-hurry.

my bicycle also looks very generic right now, nothing that would show it's owned by a crazy cat lady.  i'll have to do something about that.  wouldn't it be great to have a great bike plate like this?

just kidding.

this blogging thing

i did say something like going back to blogging, and not just the post-a-photo-write-a-caption kind of blogging.  if i'm going to write lengthily again (hello, thesis), then i have to practice writing something more than a paragraph.

i must.

now, what to write.

my little desk plant and holiday updates

happy new year!

feeling much like The Little Prince who worried about his rose, i also worried about my desk plant i left in our office before the holiday vacation.  since i would be away from work, i placed it on our water dispenser by our pantry/storage area window so that it can get some light while i'm gone.
