Missing everyone today! But maybe having more to miss means we’re lucky to have met fabulous people and done awesome stuff :)
“Sincere & happy. Beautiful harvest.”
– Meanings of the characters that make up the names of two Japanese colleagues. Here’s hoping :)
Fujiya's Collarbone in Tokyo
The deliciousness of this moment.
poof
new poof? hmmm. hmmm. buwisit pepper! but well I guess we’re sticking south and who knows.
“What’s the fancy WiFi that’s on your phone wherever you go?”
– Mikey… Um also known as data?
The past few days have been making me think. Mental overload, too much wide open space… This will end up good somehow!
What am I allowed to say or do differently when everything is up in the air..?
“YA-HEY”

“Why would you do something that’s stupid?”
– Excellent question, Mom!
Can’t say it out loud and it really doesn’t have anything to do with me but omg I super, super knew it. Heads will roll. Fingers will be pointed of course, but in this one instance I agree that four are pointing back at said pointer. What a year for the explosion to occur. Can’t say I didn’t see it coming…
I’ve been so worried about what’s coming next. Tomorrow I might go home and get freaked out again that everything is so unsettled and up in the air. But today was a great day to step outside my comfort zone (not that any of it was that uncomfortable) and immerse in something completely new. As much as I ignore politics and have never tried to learn it, this is infinitely bigger than...

“Early this week, a change of guard brings an unexpected opening for your ascent....”
– Refinery 29, April 28 - Aries
only 1/2 of this came true
This week has “mullet” written all over it: Business in the front; party in the back. With the sun and your ruling planet, Mars, working hard in your money house, you could make significant progress — and serious bank — before the week is halfway through. On Thursday, rolled up sleeves could morph into a tearaway shirt thanks to the seductive potency of the Scorpio lunar eclipse. Chemistry that’s...
“Here comes a feeling you thought you’d forgotten
Chairs to sit and...”

“I accidentally gathered the wrong rosebuds.”
– Jim: Maggie’s moving in with Don. Mackenzie: What about the speech I gave you??? Jim: Which one? Mackenzie: What do you mean, which one? Gather ye rosebuds, Jim! When i told you to “gather ye rosebuds”, did you?
Jim: I did. Yes. But -

There was a bright spot today when Ayo was explaining how he makes his girlfriend cry and concluding with “I’ve made her a better person.” This is only topped by the time he was telling me and Patch “I’m a good catch, too.” Good lord.
Otherwise today was crap. A phone call in the morning that made me wonder if all the indicators I’ve been using to make...
“If there’s any fall-out, I’ll be standing next to you and in front....”
– Will, Newsroom
Cheers to good bosses.

bat signal
One day :) I’ll send out the bat signal. And it will be time for all of us to work together again.
“What do you call dimsum for dogs?
Xiao long bow wow.”

This morning, am so humbled by the reminder that things have turned out more spectacularly than I could have ever dreamed or planned. So many divine inspirations and twists of fate. I am so blessed that God has always taken care of me. I don’t doubt that in the least but sometimes I forget to look at the bigger picture and notice the pattern of his handwork woven into my entire life. This...
This is testing my patience… Probably in a way that is healthy for my extremely low EQ. It makes me antsy, a LOT. But the possibilities are still exciting. In more ways than one, huh pepper? Let’s seeeeeee.
“Hoppipolla”
– Sigur Ros
Didn’t think to look up the meaning until now. Maybe I thought it was gibberish just like Gobbledigook. Apparently it means Jumping into Puddles. Shall we?
Two things scaring me at the same time. Holy wtf. How is this going to pan out?
“A girlfriend is just a friend! Pwede naman i-unfriend.”
– Gen
“The stars all seem to weep.”
Realized how proud I am of our kids. It’s so nice to think about how far they’ve come. And to have had anything to do with creating a place where they could step up and be their digital best gives me a great feeling. Good stuff. I’ll leave proud :)
