Cherries come from the cherry tree. Apples and apricots also come from trees... More specifically, they come from Bryce's trees in the farm.

Wonderful.

I have a feeling that Totoro lives up there. Can it not be as mysterious that I'm here?

If a palmist or whatever told me when I was very small, say, 15, that one day I'd be traveling around so much and so often, I'd say he/she was telling lies. This is simply unbelievable.

I went to Admiralty, Causeway Bay etc only when I was 16 or so. And never before. That was almost like a prisoner's life.

Had a nightmare last night. Cannot remember any detail of it. Woke up very quickly from the shocking image... though I'm sure I saw mom.

She's a threat all my life. Got to keep her out of my way. I want a free life, not a prisoner's life.

Not sure. But looks like this is an oak tree. I really like it here. It's a lot more green than Colorado.

Trees here are so much bigger but not as big as those monsters as in Florida. They are tall enough to instill awe in me. Yet they're not blocking the sky like those in Florida.
