"we walk through the heath together, in the evening wind..." - p. 147

we ordered in pizza and watched a rented dvd on the plasma. we walked around east coast avenue in the light of the lamps after dinner. we went into the petrol station and bought a drink each. we had a supper drink of teh ping at siglap.

tired and in love.

"For in all the best fairy tales there is no yearning. All possibilities arch over them, so close that yearning is much too long an arm..." - p. 148

somehow after every submission i read something from f. scott fitzgerald - somehow to bask in the dancing mood of luxury and indulgence - perhaps that is the overflowing of the sense of freedom. however, before the monday of beginning comes, i shall, inspired by rilke, finally start and finish the monumental war and peace, which i've always tried to start but never gone beyond fifteen pages.

"I am currently reading War and Peace. I am in volume one, and my fullest sympathies are with Prince Andre. All the best passages I have marked." - p. 133, Rilke, Diaries of Young Poet.
