i'm going to mark today somewhere. not because it's america's independence day (who gives a crap about that) but because i ate my first large amount of bittergourd today.

surprisingly, it wasn't THAT bad. but maybe because it was cooked til mushy and chopped into tiny bits and that i actually LIKE bittergourd soup... but yeah. i wouldn't complain so much about eating bittergourd if each bittergourd thingy was cooked like that.

and i can't believe i threw sixty bucks onto a tshirt. FANS. they get bands EVERYWHERE.


HELL YEAH! tioman in a week's time. gotta start charging the batteries for the camera. :) and figure out where the hell i put the tripod.
