TRADITIONS AND CHAPUZONES

 



오늘 너무 더워요 !! (oneul neomu deowoyo)

Still in Spain. Luckily we have air-con indoors and pool outside. 

I am about to start a lesson in the garden when I hear a voice from another time exclaim outside "El Chatarrero" !! wow !!! He still exists and sounds just the same (they all sounded the same, it was uncanny. It IS uncanny, as apparently they are still at it, how exciting. Not everything has died with this new world.)

안녕 !! <3 <3

Ella Grace - I wonder

I go back home in summer after 4 years; a completely different human being. It is very likely I won't survive the temperatures when I can barely withstand 26 degrees in the UK these days. I hope I have time to give everyone a breath-taking hug before I pass out, at least. 

I had another song to say "hasta la vista, baby" but it was far too angry and this blog has seen too much of that. This one was another present from V (BTS), I can't wait for him to resume civil life and start sharing music again.

PS _ I had my first taste of real K-life, in the form of Soju (소주) its national alcoholic drink, I hated it :'( It has to be said I bought it in AMAZON so God only knows if it was indeed 소주 or pharmacy alcohol.) It reminded me a little of weak gin and I hate gin after I loved it too much for a whole night many many lives ago.

I have also bought what I need to prepare 김치 (kimchi) when I get back, lets hope that goes better. I will never be able to fish a kman without both 김치 or 소주.

PSS _ Oh yes, I am still at it with their language. I am taking computer etc to be able to attend to the lesson this Tuesday and study over there while Spaniards are working. <wiggles eyebrows>  I am beginning to grasp the little nuances of its grammar, exciting times.


PSSS _ they shot the ex president? his own men to make him look stronger? the enemies to get rid of him at last?  the special services that have gone even more incompetent than Boeing following the lets-see-who-can-be-less-competent trend? .. do you really still give a flying shit about the state of the world is and the ways in which they make us think of it? good luck with that my friend. I will continue to enjoy fiction for a little bit longer :) 

안녕!! <3 <3

GIVING BIRTH ...





 ... to my Doña Quijote  

still in awe with my lass AI artist friend. Latest images for the book (research only, course) : 














My only complaint so far is, why the heck is it so difficult to come up with an uglier, more regular looking female? Except for their fingers (drawing hands is hard EVEN for machines, peculiar, isn't it? )

still, I love them all. 

The last one so far is my favorite candidate for the book cover. Though this might and very likely will change. 

And about the rest in the real world? who cares.
