What to say...

It's been a long silence. I'm at a loss for words again. There's always something to express but little is truly worth saying, and I can't find the right words or the right time to say them. And, of course, I have to choose a time when I should be writing something else to pen this blog entry instead.

I shall start with the mundane.

The weirdest makeup I've ever had to wear for a photo shoot. I realise I shouldn't have smiled at all - the face paint on my chin was cracking, plus I look plain iffy with that half-assed grin.

My dad has a strange bunch of bananas on the table now. They refuse to ripen together.

Out of randomness one night, I took one of those hair stick thingies and fiddled around with it. I'd never been able to use one properly because my hair just doesn't hold up with it. But this one freak time, with no particular effort, I got a perfect chignon! I was so impressed and so shocked I had to photograph the back of my own head.

And this blog entry moves closer to my heart.

Y&W's second anniversary - El ordered a photo cake to celebrate our two marvellous years together. This photo was taken during the kenduri of our first production On North Diversion Road ("sail away, sail away"), also the production that decisively fused us as an ensemble and as friends.

How apt, that it (we) would be divided into equal parts. This is the photo that breaks my heart. Come what may, but I will love you always.

[To Y&W: I have a whole bunch of production photos and videos but haven't gotten round to sharing them yet. Akan datang!]
