"sometimes, i can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives i'm not living"

I can't remember where I read that before.

Toured around KL for our latest video assignment.
KLIA, Thean Hou Temple, Little India Brickfields, Bukit Nanas, Central Market & Petaling Street all in a day.
I don't think I've ever been to all these places as often ever since I started college.
They make really good spots for taking photographs though.
I hope the promotional video works out well in the end.

"He is only a human," said the great fox, "while you are a fox. These things rarely end happily."
I finished Neil Gaiman + Yoshitaka Amano's The Sandman: The Dream Hunters.
The story is based loosely on a Japanese fairytale; about a monk, and a fox who fell in love with him. It was not a typical happy ending but I'd like to think that the fox spirit and the monk managed to be together in the end, in a world different from ours. It is still sad though.
The art is really dreamy. That's the difference between American and Japanese comics; American artists have harder strokes, whereas Japanese artists are more graceful, with fluid strokes and softer color palettes.
*sigh*
Is that a weird past time? Reading and analyzing too much?
Sometimes, I think none of the people I know actually have anything in common with me.

Some random pictures from yesterday's tour.
Aunt is encouraging me to take a deeper interest in photography if that is what I like, she said.
Sometimes, I feel that she is more supportive of my interests than my parents.
