I peeked at this place called Puerto Princessa last week, it looks sort of quite... but I didn't know if it was part of the Philippines ^^ I would think an island nation usually has happier people... since they are close to the ocean (says much) This post is similarly quite, and relaxing. As for the Philippines, I feel sad for most Eastern+Pacific nations which felt the impact of Western colonialism (esp. my own Native America), but there is so little that can be accomplished when the adversary had been waring "among " themselves, advancing military technology, for centuries. Btw, I often enjoy the same meal, tis yummy! Ahhh!

The South has power but is unable to act upon it due to Big Brother USA always breathing down their necks. At first I was thinking about how fascinating the pervasiveness of anime and entertainment in general was, but I think that "entertainment" in our sense of the world is strictly a Northern thing, especially jazz, if that's tangential enough for you.

I better start waking up before 2pm more often... It's been so rainy here lately, it's good to finally get some sun. Though I love spending the entire day in bed reading manga when it rains, there's a limit, you know? Brunch can do that to you?… I better start waking up before 2pm more often…
