Scribbles

I'll be having my brother back in less than 10 hours! How cool is that?:D
It seriously stinks to have your family members scattered all over the globe. Brothers, sisters (actually it's just one of each, so you can see why I can't afford to misplace either:P), uncles, aunts and cousins. No really, what happened to the good ol' days when families were just a few blocks away from each other? I want that people!

I honestly don't think it should be allowed for families to be scattered that way. I mean, isn't it the fact that you're around them all the time, that sets them apart from the rest of the people you know? I don't think the feelings of closeness you share are your genes at work (at least not entirely). It's really more the fact that, well, they are pretty much always around you. You get to share a lot. They know you better than anyone else and love you despite that!:)
But If you only get to see them once in a very very blue moon, then I'm afraid that wouldn't apply anymore. Right?
Hmmm. That can't be good. Must remember to do something about it, but right now I'm kinda preoccupied with staring intensely at every clock in the house, hoping to scare at least one of them into moving faster! So far, the results are not promising. Stupid clocks don't seem to care.

I must admit of being guilty of "not having a clue what I'm writing about". I usually have a pretty clear idea of what I'm going to write about before I actually do (as opposed to me speaking, in which case I usually just blurt out the first thing that comes to my mind!). Today I don't. I just got a sudden urge to write, and at that time the fact that I have nothing to write about didn't seem to pose such a problem, but now I can see the reality is otherwise!

And yet I continue to write...
Wait. I think I just pinpointed the reason behind my apparent lack of inspiration! I haven't gone running in ages. Almost all my thoughts get crystallized as I run. And by the time I'm done with my 6K, my brain is jammed with thoughts that are destined to be the heart and soul of my next piece of writing.

That settles it then, must go running tomorrow. Besides, the weather here is absolutely gorgeous as we bid farewell the last of our short-lived and deeply-cherished winter days. In a month or so I fear we'll be cooped up yet again in air-conditioned boxes; forced in by the harsh summer heat. That's when I start getting cranky. This girl needs a breath of fresh air to function properly!

And a bar of chocolate.

And my sis.

and bro.

and my awesome family..

and my hilarious best friend Donia.

and some kids around to make me laugh..

That's not too much to ask for, is it?
