freaking accident

Never ignore the sign from the quivering eyelid, cuz post 5 minutes of that while standing on the opposite side of the street waiting for the B line, all's well in the cold night , moving my feet to Tarkan and watching this car broken down 2nd time. some good people helping out, then out of no where (or so it seems to be), heard bang, bang, screech bang! lifted my attention to the intersecion close to the other side of street, a pick up truck screeched fast down west of broadway without breaking, while an suv swarved towards the curb right infront of the Kafe, before it got there, it had already hit 3 other cars. people ran over to help the person who's still in the suv, hope the person was okay. and freaking hope whoever in that pickup gets what's coming....unbeleivable!! then, just saw a person threw a can on the sidewalk running 4 the bus, and the person's porch is just one throw away, y not threw it back at his own porch.

I can't spell N it aren't my fault!

first: PHONICS don't work esp. for EAL learners in primary school. anyway I'v always say that English's the most diff. lang. for me yet, and seriously i can't spell properly in English. today, that has been confirmed! the reason is : b/c 'modern' English seems to be living in the time capsule of 1600s least some good Dr. expert on this said this. right, and he also told of a sad sad story of how an EAL kid didn't get the support he needed and pretty much ended his own life, cease his own existence. and right, more on what happened to my brain today later

am i going crazy?!

when the kids are so slow, i started telling them Ελα Ελα παιδι μου...maybe they didn't really hear it but..they'll prob.
wondering who IS Ela?
oy, Mr. Φογκ is fogging up my brain. he'll be done the 80 days around the world while i'm still writing the summary for 2 chapters!

what just happened?

got off the transit, and saw 2 transit workers taking pix of 3 very cute transit police..not sure what that was about. but the transit police were...very cute..even writers' fest. has arrived in a stealth manner or maybe i'v been living in a bubble?

in the spirit of Diwali

Yes, in the spirit of Diwali, I'v lighted the candles in circle, shown the kids the designs, the fact book with real pix in them, but there was the tape of Ravi Shankar. decided to put it on while i show the book, while they draw their designs and as the 2 candles flamed on. At first, was worried that the quick tempo of the sitar piece might trigger the dancing bugs in the kids, yet amazingly, not one of them moved, they listened intensely, i wish i had captured the look on "miss wiggly' , she of all people had the most intensive look while Shankar worked the sitar magic. prob. none of them have ever heard.
in the novels, it's often shown that many of the kung fu masters often challenges each other in the forms of the musical instruments they play, it can make u and it can break u, it tugs at the heart, the mind...the body's lost in the process..and TODAy, Master Shankar has proven the power of sitar

something made me...

something made me think of you today, next weekish u'd have passed on for a year.
maybe of ur passing, reminds me, somethings are worth living for, somethings have lives of their own
and somethings just not worth it.
and U are definitely the kinda person I'd love to have kept that connection.
we'll see u ..whenever. hope ur happy wherever it is ur at.

the words spoken can't take them back
Οι λέξεις έχουν ειπωθεί, δε μπορώ να τις πάρω πίσω
一言既出無可收回

the knife went in, wounds made, bloodshed, scars remain
Τα μαχαίρι μπήκε, οι πληγές έγιναν, το αίμα χύθηκε, τα σημάδια μένουν
刀入， 傷創， 血流， 痕依舊

how clean is the clean slate?
Πόσο άγραφο είναι το άγραφο χαρτί;
清白的板岩是有多清白？

there's no way to tell
Δεν υπάρχει τόπος να πεις Δε μπορείς να ξέρεις.
無法得知

the fire aiding the rebirths of the phoenix
Η φωτιά βοηθάει τις αναγεννήσεις του Φοινικα
火助鳳凰重生

yet will the less pleasant deeds be burned 2 ashes
Ακόμα και οι λιγότερο ευχάριστες πράξεις θα γίνουν στάχτη
然而，不宜之行能被燒成灰盡麽？

awaits the rebirth of innocence that never comes
Περιμεένει την αναγέννηση της αθωότητας που δεν έρχεται ποτέ
等候永不到來無罪的重生

impurity of the thoughts
Ακαθαρσία των σκέψεων
不潔的想法

how will it be washed off
Πώς θα την ξεπλύνεις
它如何將被洗滌

nay, forever it wil be tainted
Όχι, για πάντα θα είναι μολυσμένη
不，它永遠將被染

there's no turning back
Δεν υπάρχει επιστροφή
沒有回轉的餘地

despite the promises of the powers
Παρά τις υποσχέσεις των δυνάμεων
儘管有權者的承諾

It is what it is
Αυτό είναι
它就是如此

it is how we are made
Είναι το πώς γινόμαστε
我們是如此而造

Highlight of the day so far, talked to the Glens on the phone!! the playmobile dino's a hit..i'm happy.

the moon shines...

The moon shines as it makes its journey, slowly bringing the λυκος in the 'sapien, as the planet turns, the prmitive intuition takes over, cannot be stopped, the rawness, the strengths, the insatiable thirst to be fufilled, what's left after all? the σομα goes weak with one look, barely function, the feeling of faintness, there's no escape, even, without contact
