mother's day is usually a quiet simple day for us. nothing extravagant. nothing extra special. nothing to splurge on. or pamper. you learn to love the simple and plain. you celebrate small achievements. and you stay a little while longer to enjoy the time pass by.
disappointed. took several photos for the website yesterday at the pool but i guess i was really not cut up for this kind of work. all the images were... at best, useable in small sizes for the discerning eye.
today however, picked up quite a lot of films fromf_o_c. much appreciation for passing me the film! looks like i'd have some fun with cross processing in the coming few months. GANBATTE~!!!
so later is late lunch with the parents for mother's day. which was relatively a simple affair.
so can you imagine how excited i am? apart from the james bond-esque way how he drove that sporty piece of silver. tag me.
it's strange that on a crowded evening through town. passing by all those strangers. couples. the brief smiles as they glanced at you. as you glanced at them returning a smile or two. so it feels the same anyway. empty. but at least there was someone familiar. we took a train. walked down the puddled footpaths, along the busy streets. close enough to feel the body warmth, as the cool breeze blew gently. arms over the shoulders, just to keep close.
it reminded me of a monday. a rainy monday. where the lingering smell in the air just makes you wish mondays are the best days of the week.
and we walked in the rain sharing the umbrella. arms over the shoulders, pulled close. even if the umbrella is big enough for the two of us. those rainy mondays.
