some more crap

I am so proud of myself. I finally remembered to ask the coffeeshop uncle and came to a revelation that the brown crispy stuff in Tau Kua Paus are not, contrary to popular belief, lard or some other kind of disgustingly fattening substance. But rather... fried yam!!! It's funny how people can eat it for 2-3 decades of their lives and be happily ignorant about what goes through their bodies.

Saw Pepper the cat again today, and she was as sweet as ever. :) Though she's prolly slightly blind on one eye. I wonder if animals can see colour, and how much detail in their existence actually matters to them.

Am I what I protray myself to be... laid back and relaxed... or am I somewhat intrinsically uptight and anxious? When I follow a lead, is it the fear of making mistakes that makes my frame rigid? Is my eagerness to be able to anticipate the next move a result of wanting to do it right at first go? Thus the lead needs to reassure, to be firm but relaxed; strong yet gentle; decisive yet accommodating.
