KLARA AND THE SUN

 "Mr Capaldi believed there was nothing special inside Josie that couldn't be continued. He told the Mother he'd searched and searched and found nothing like that. But I believe now he was searching in the wrong place. There was something very special, but it wasn't inside Josie. It was inside those who loved her. That's why I think now Mr Capaldi was wrong and I wouldn't have succeeded. So I'm glad I decided as I did."
KLARA AND THE SUN , kazuo Ishiguro

If there is a book we should all read to prepare for the world ahead it's this one.

Happy thursday, little Earthlins xx

TOMBSTONE

 

 

Since my parents have been paying for my burial for an eternity, I might as well choose what I want written on it, it's quite simple:
 

HERE LIES CELIA PAULOS
UNMATCHED IN UNFINISHED BUSINESSES
WATCH THIS SPACE...

 

(of course it will end up in elipsis, you know I love them...)

 
Happy Tuesday, little earthlings.
Didn't I tell you Tuesday would come before you realised?

ALONE

 Lately I wake up with this song in my head, in fact I wake up singing  part of this song, the "melting" fall, over an on over.

JIMIN 'Alone' Lyrics (Color Coded Lyrics)

Yeah yeah it's KPop, it was bound to happen eventually. I will use the language-learning as an excuse for now. - South Korean strategy to take the world by "soft-powering" us all to death seems to be working, even King Charles mentions BTS during Estate Dinners O_o

Happy Saturday earthlins !!

KILLING BUTTERFLIES

 

[마이네임] Killing Butterflies | 최무진 윤지우 Choi Mujin Yoon Jiwoo

Incidentally the series is also very very good ((My Name))

THIS IS NOT A POTATO (ANYMORE)

I don't know what all the fuss is about,  I much rather a bag of Vivaldis than a worn out 4,000 year old statue of a God however Egyptian it might be... tatas .... mmmm..

Still quite peculiar and I love peculiar.

Happy Monday, little earthlings, keep digging ! and if worst comes to worst there is always Spanish omelette !! 

NUFF SAID 2

Just found another reason to keep my mouth shut : not to end up eating perfume. 

22,272 words and counting (written words don't count).

Happy Friday to those on a Friday mood and to the rest, courage! this too shall pass.

NANOWRIMO

 And this time is about windmills. Full on irreverent great-fun-to-write fiction.

Sorry for the silence, I will be back when my private Ms Quijote reaches the ending.

BYE BYE H

 

 

 

It's official, bye bye Holliwood.

K-world and a Successful Visit to the Consulate

 Yep miracles do happen occasionally  and yesterday Little Pea got actually somewhere with the consulate people (I don't exagerate when I say this is the most chaotic institution in the planet if you don't believe me check its reviews on Google.). And to celebrate it once she was done we walked to the Saatchi as it is now tradition,  and guess what we found??  This ...  

Yep the universe is talking to me big time,  in Korean.. hopefully soon I'll be able to understand Him!! 

PS _ apparently a stranger is using me for her Thesis,  I can't fathom what she is studying but I hope it's not all typed in capital letters ;)
