I have promised numerous times to put on a blog for sharing our thoughts. Now here it goes.
Before I moved to New Haven, a friend predicted my new life: working like crazy in the gym and knitting one sweater after another so before long I would have bulging biceps and lots of nice sweaters to wear. I wish living in isolation from a bunch of good friends could be as funny as that. But the truth is I am never far from the stress of being a graduate student though I should be the last one to say so.
The above picture was taken on a trip to Monterey. It always has a calming effect on me. When I was weighed down by the dark thoughts common to us, I would let myself go sit on the bench, then, stand up and start wandering by the ocean. Sounds cheesey, but it works:)

Hey Meng,
Missing you so much--missing writing with you and talking about writing. But thank you for putting this space up for us to meet virtually. I have a blog too, though it's in Spanish up to now. I started it in Argentina with a similar purpose, then abandoned it when I came back. Let's see if I have the guts to get back to it.
In the meantime, keep posting, and I'll return often.
with a bow,

I remember the beautiful seashore in the picture. I have been there. As seeing an old couple sitting peacefully on the rock looking into the horizon, I cannot reflecting what my life would be when I am as old as them. Sadly, that age does seem far...

Ok, i'm not ignoring your blog anymore. I didn't even know it existed; I thought you finally got a blogger account because my admonishment had worn thin on you.
