Hello, Bloggerbot

Recently I bought a new camera. It is more advanced than my old one, and has many manual settings. I found the basics of photographing interesting. So I took a few pictures, downloaded Hello, and Picasa, and tried to talk to my friends about it. After spending a whole week talking about photos and asking them to install Hello, today I found that that the only other "person" who is online in Hello is Bloggerbot. Cheers, Bloggerbot.

It turns out my friends indeed don't give a shit about my life, and I doubt they want to share anything in their lives with me. The only time most of my friends would call me would be the time they want my help. Well, it looks like I need to replace them with some better ones.

Not being able to find any meaningful moments that are worth retain memory of, I went to the grassfield and beach near Irving Park and Lakeshore. Six years ago, I used to wander around the roads, dreaming that my girlfriend could also be here. Five years ago, I liked to lay down on the grassfield, letting the breeze massage my face, watching couples holding hands and gazing into each others eyes, and secretly hoping that the person I liked would magically lay beside me. Four years ago, I walked along the beach bearfeet, longing that someone who could share my heart with me would appear.

Of course, unlike in fairy tales, none of these dreams ever came true. When I came to the same place this afternoon, seeing the same scenes: teenagers playing softballs, old fellow fishing, couples walking dogs, I couldn't help weeping... I do not know when I can find my right partner.

By the way, a picture is worth a thousand words. The above picture says it all. Posted by Picasa

Sunset of 2002-5-18
I still remember that day. Alone, I was wandering around the grassfield near the lake. A bunch of boys and girls were playing softball together. But I don't really have anything to do. So I took pictures of sunset.
