A summary of things

Here we are in August, and I'm too lazy to write a proper entry, so here's a list of new news:

1. LK and I got back from Hong Kong where we had fun riding the Peak Tram, shopping, eating, and attempting to speak Cantonese.

2. My brother found and saved a dwarf hamster. While we were away in Hong Kong, my brother took half a day off to rollerblade with friends. He was looking for something in his car, which was parked outside our home, when he saw a little flash of fur dart out from under the car. It circled his feet and probably sent telepathic messages to him: save me! take me home! don't let me be eaten by stray cats! So we've adopted the lost or runaway hamster and called him Hammie, after the little fellow in the comic strip Baby Blues.

3. I've got a new pair of glasses. Rectangular in shape - they make me look even more geeky. Perfect for teaching.

4. I recently watched Whisper Of The Heart, an anime film from Studio Ghibli. Very magical and pretty. It reminds me quite a bit of Kiki's Delivery Service.

5. Great friend D, also from our 100-Acre Wood circle, finally has her own blog up! Go visit her here.

6. LK and I have found our future home. Renovations required. Will be moving in next summer after I graduate!
