12 October 2003 Tourist . Traveller
Wrote a new quote the other day:
After living near Paris for almost 2 years now, I am still in awe of the beauty and art and life contained within this historical city.
It makes me smile to hear tourists, that have visited Paris for 3 days, go back home and say they've "seen" France. They've barely touched Paris, let alone the country.
My respect goes out to the individuals that are willing to travel (be it 100 km or 1000km), to leave behind what they know for a chance to experience something new.
A warm Happy Birthday to my brother, Andrew, who turns 24 today. May he live through many more winters and summers.

02 October 2003 Siba and Metro Boy
I had a dream a few weeks ago about one of my wife's co-workers, Siba, who loves to read novels and is shy around men. In my dream I was teaching Siba some cool tricks on how to flirt with men and while I hid in the shadows, she would try out some of my suggestions with random guys waiting for the metro. Stuff like asking what time it was or just smiling in a sexy way.
Aurélie tells Siba about my dream.
The next morning, Siba gets on the metro and sees her favourite guy who she's been seeing on the metro for over a year. Without pausing to think, she says "Bonjour!" and smiles at him before sitting down and blushing like crazy.
A week goes by with no sight of Metro Boy and Siba loses hope. She leaves on a two-week vacation for the beautiful islands of Greece.
Then today, she jumps on the metro seconds before the doors close and right in front of her is Metro Boy. He asks her if she's been on vacation because he hasn't see her in a while. And Siba's heart goes up and up and up, like the smile upon her face.
And now, as I write in my journal, Siba and Metro Boy are out in Paris having drinks and laughing and flirting and dreaming about all the little things in life.
Bonne soirée à tous les deux.
