You thought you'd take me by surprise. . . now I'm here burning down your house."

Hera

The queen of the Olympian deities and was worshipped as the goddess of marriage and birth. Hera is the most beautiful of all immortals, even more beautiful than Aphrodite.

. . . and that's just the name. ;-)

    Why I Went to The Woods
    H.D. Thoreau
    I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and to be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.

    itsie bitsies

    mary jane, since i know that you're as bored as i am, (otherwise you won't be reading this! hah!) let me share with you some bits about myself. lucky you, since i pretty like the idea of me being very mysterious and unknown and here i am, revealing myself and ruining the only thing that gives me character. huh?? okay, enough.

    i have a greek first name and a spanish surname but i look chinese. 

    i sort of agree with the notion that ignorance is bliss. i tend to not give shit about a lot of things that i need to give shit about because these will only add up to the distress that i'm perpetually going through. knowing that, i guess you could say i'm a bit apathetic and selfish.
     
    i like being moved by something i hear, see or read from a book, movie, internet or even in the writings in the walls of some dingy toilet. 
     
    i love libraries. sometimes they're hunting grounds where i'd find myself browsing through the endless tall shelves, shifting through hundreds of titles and names. i'd randomly pick one and feel like i just hit the jackpot when i find a book which i have no pre-conceived notion of and then finding it to be an increadible read. there's the rush, the thrill of finding that next incredible book...hiding somewhere in the dark and dusty shelves. 

    i find it annoying that some people take a lot of care not to swear in front of me as if i'm this little mousy and innocent girl who'd cry when i hear bad words. well, 'tangina yan!

    i always look at the people i ride in the jeepney with and spot one or two who unconciously stare blankly out into the road. i myself tend to be hypnotized especially when i'm sitting at the back end and then stare outside let go of all thoughts, just empty my mind. before i knew it, i'd be staring blankly like stupid.

    when i was a kid, i had a habit of gaping at a puddle to see the reflection of the sky. after a while of intent concentration i'd make myself believe that if i'd step into the puddle, i'd fall right into the sky.

    i love, love, love peppermint tea. something about the idea that it's a hot beverage yet very cooling once it flows into your mouth is just amazing. like magic.

    hi, you're the third namesake I have come to know in the blogging world, and I am amazed at how we are all so much alike. :)

    ALTHEA
    Gender: Feminine
    Usage: Greek Mythology (Latinized)
    From the Greek name &#913;&#955;&#952;&#945;&#953;&#945; (Althaia), perhaps related to Greek &#945;&#955;&#952;&#959;&#962; (althos) "healing". In Greek myth she was the mother of Meleager. Soon after her son was born she was told that he would die as soon as a piece of wood that was burning on her fire was fully consumed. She immediately extinguished the piece of wood and sealed it in a chest, but in a fit of rage many years later she took it out and set it alight, thereby killing her son.

    Rosas: Spanish for rose
