Hate Hay Fever

All of a sudden, unexpected spring heat hit the city today. As the temperature got about 21 degrees mid-afternoon, huge waves of pollen started wafting in the air, which caused me super annoying sneezing and eye irritation all day. It lasted until near midnight.


Do you know what happen when you have continuous bad sneezing and corresponding sore throat and painful back part of nose? Brain freeze. You can't think right. You don't even want to think. Only thing in your mind is to get the irritation away.

"mens sana in corpore sano"

             -from the Roman poet Juvenal

Meaning "A healthy mind in a healthy body." Just like he says, everything begins from a healthy body. Without it, you are unable of more than you expect.

Beautiful Encounter

I've been off from this blog for few months now since started the one in Japanese, but I came across this inspiring blog by a Japanese/English bilingual guy. He is blogging in English and first I thought he is native in English, but as I read on the back number of his blog postings, found out that he and I had almost the same path of learning English. I was simply amazed. By his linguistic skill, and also by his positively deep thoughts. I instantly became a big fun of him. And that's how I was inspired and started posting again:)
