Some people who happen to see my iPhone screen have asked me if she was my daughter (Do I look old enough to have a 3-4 year old daughter, seriously?)
I've always thought that I should change,
but I could not come across something that triggers a smile on my face other than EY's cute grin as she licked frosting.
Well, I think I found a substitute after several months.
I don't read as much as I used to anymore, but it's not because I want to.
If I can, I will shut my computer off for days and just keep on reading for hours and days without stop. Unfortunately, that's not feasible in a real life with career and all.
Despite of my well-known love for books, I rarely received books as gifts. I do not know why, but I've heard reasons such as "I might give you something you already have read" etc, etc.
So I go nuts (seriously) when I get some book as a present.
But then, how often do I really receive a gift... Very rarely, thanks to my limited social graph.
Plus, I value people's presence much more than anything anyway. So my appreciation would not be altered whether I receive something material or not. It often leads to a pressure of reciprocity when I receive something unexpectedly.
After all, I am rather a simple human being when I deal with the world outside... It's just that my inner self is what is complicated.

PS: Thanks for the book!!!
