Arnel

Am not sure if I've ever told you about Arnel. He's a very good friend, since uni, and we worked together in Singapore for a short while. He has recently moved to China for a job, I hope he's adapting well.

It's his birthday today, hence the timing to the introduction. This photo of him, above, was taken in Singapore a loooong time ago, when we and our housemates didn't have anything to do one new year's eve. I like it particularly because it's one of the first pictures I took when I started exploring photography.

A pause

I took it easy today, knackered from all the cooking the past two days.

Our new cleaner also came today for the first time. Cathy Rose, nice as she is, is a bit clumsy and is always dropping things. This new one is called "Näke" and is local (Cathy Rose is originally from Cebu). She ironed clothes and cleaned today. I hope it works out with her.

The picture is of one of Inay's orchids, in Carmona, taken last month.

How do I melt this snow?

This is just an extra photo of the past snow weeek here in Erlangen. The snow has since melted, of course. It's bright again. Luckily this kind of snow reacts to changes in the weather. The other kind, the personal kind, it keeps one cold long after it's melted.
