A Note About Grieving
In the before-times, when I was on a subway stopped between stations, I’d try to sense the millisecond it began to lurch back into motion, until I could no longer tell the difference between standing still and moving. Grief is like that, but with fury and fear and sadness and a terrifying blankness that nothing can soothe. You can’t tell when the subway will start moving again; you can’t magic it into motion. You can only wait and see what happens, and make sure you’re holding on when it starts moving again.

Defining My Life
"I like to think that every time a door closes, my unwavering faith leads me to discover a new one to open.."
No job means no Canadian income for me. I was hoping to spend some of my new income during the Christmas holidays, and I guess it wasn't meant to be. It's hard to justify spending money on clothes when I own so many already, ππ
I miss shopping with BB on the weekends during the Christmas holidays. Christmas windows, drinking Starbucks and taking pictures all around Manhattan have always been our favorite things to do. Hudson Yards looks so stunning this Christmas and I am missing all of it...
Merry Christmas to Moi!

Never Tired of London
This book is a gem of all gems! How can anyone ever be tired of London? The book is full of interesting anecdotes of famous authors and places. I wish there are more books like these that I discover in the library.

My Way of Life
Should I consider myself lucky to find someone who shares my views on parenthood? I see there are many childless couples out there who are like us. They choose not to have kids, and not because they couldn't have kids. I consider myself an earthling, and not an alien. I just don't want to conform to society's rules to become a mother. I don't feel sad whatsoever. I am just happy to be on my own and not to take care of family.

French Like Moi
This book is disappointing. I would say it's mildly entertaining. I've certainly read better books on American expats in Paris.
The title sounded promising but the individual chapters didn't make me want to continue exploring Paris.
Time for another trip to BPL! Looking forward to Murata's "Earthlings"...
