red day

she was right in front of me, a girl, no, a lady, in crimson red, those coats of crimson red that they wear. a red coat, a black top, red shorts (that’s weird), stockings, flats. a half detached face. seemingly unconcerned with the movement of the metro. the sun falls in. her thin lips, just [...]

flambé

It continues! The burning of the flame. as in, ppl burning the flame. nvm
the protests continue in San Francisco.
interestingly:
Richard Gere, a prominent Tibetan Buddhist who has been a consistent advocate of human rights in Tibet.
Gere belongs to the International Campaign for Tibet, one of several organizations that took part in Tuesday’s protests.
but anyway what’s cool [...]

olympic flame

what a day. it was really amazing. the short summary of it is that there were widespread and highly charged up protests throughout the route, the procession was repeatedly disrupted, cut short, many banners were put up, lots of Tibetian and RSF flags were waved. stunning.

now for the details.

neige

it snowed last night. in terms of probability this borders on the ridiculous.

it’s april, and temperatures hit 14 degrees last week, even though it was 0 to 8 yesterday
i’m in the city where it rarely snows
i just ran a marathon yesterday.

but it did. when i walked out to the metro at 11pm, there were flakes [...]

paris marathon 2008

i only remembered that there’s a marathon when i saw it in the papers a week ago, oops. a few months ago i [...]

flamme

more Olympic news: Sarkozy has just threatened to boycott the opening ceremony unless 3 conditions are met, i can’t remember all but one of them is for beijing to open dialogue with dalai lama. coz china recently started more suppression activities against tibet. hai. terrible.
and, they are so worried about the olympic flame+paris, that the [...]

liberté

i guess it’s a big thing here: liberty. they like as much to meddle in other’s affairs as america does. the olympic flame is arriving in paris on monday, the Mairie de Paris (er i guess that equals to something like government administrative unit of paris? crap it’s hard to translate stuff without a page [...]

name

i have finally finally found a sign with the name of the school. amazingness. after two months. with the University of Paris thingy too.
