perk up, light up, get up

I love fresh flowers these days. They light up the room. They beautify my humdrum routine. I become dejected, profusely worried about the here and there and dark alleys but once I see a lovely arrangement, I could smile a little bit. I long of home, the majestic weather (super hot but exciting), the nature trails, the incomparable beaches.

I also adore writing on this blog. I don't manifest that at present but I hope to write more as the sweet kid is growing up to be adorable with her sulking, clashing eyelashes. She is still hard work, requiring attention, making a mess after mess and I hate mess. Now we're slowly pushing into writing her name and scribble her alphabet and numbers. Yes, I always end up into the description of the child, my child.

But the thing I still want to cure is my penchant for reading loads of crap on my phone. On the web, one link creates another link, it seems I have a hunger to read about an obscure website list of celebrities with plastic surgeries gone bad, or an update on the entertainment portal about people I don't really watch on my little screens.

a lot less sugar?
thanks, miss jan!

hurts, from the outside

There have been a few disappointments this month. Manny Pacquiao was rendered the loser in the much-hyped bout with Mayweather. I don't like defensive boxing. I believe that hugging, running, choking, hitting on the belt should be automatically points deductions. Now I'm going back to review boxing matches of my childhood -- Hagler, Hearns, Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard. I wrote my Research paper on Muhammad Ali during my Research 3 subject on my Junior year. I'll write more about Pacquiao and boxing in the next posts.

The Tories also won the recent election. Cameron has the majority now and that majority is far harsher on the working class. My heart bleeds.

Not every person is born rich.
Some really have to work extra hard to at least eat three meals a day. Some have to travel to other countries to find jobs. Others have to be breadwinners for an entire clan. If there's a little bit of help from the government, just a tiny bit wouldn't hurt and would assist those who knows how to strive. But since, it's this government there would be a lot of cuts on subsidies. Politics matter a lot when it comes to policies.
