Why I am Deleting My Personal Facebook Account
From THE KARIN, 3 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
I am no stranger to social networking. My first foray into it manifested in the form of the LoveHate.ru forum, where you simply write what you hate and what you love. “Simply” is an understatement. I had my first taste of Internet drama there. But it was fun social experience. I had a LiveJournal blog [...]

It occurs to me that many brilliant individuals had trouble sleeping, or simply slept less. Or, perhaps, were tainted by insomnia as an affliction and became really vocal about it. Vladimir Nabokov offers his startling confession about sleep (from Speak, Memory):
All my life I have been a poor go-t0-sleeper. People in trains, who lay their [...]

I’ve been so busy enjoying the holidays, family and friends time that I have naturally not written any posts. There are many drafts, but I don’t feel like finishing (anymore/yet). There’s updates about books, updates about recipes, adventures, visits to the United States and all that.
Anyway, I will just show you some images of the [...]

Originally uploaded by dreamtiger
… I could escape Alcatraz only because I was too cute….
And silly, and associating myself with people who knew no limits
And San Francisco was as foggy as there was no tomorrow
And new friends appeared out of nowhere (that’s you, Michael L!)

Cities and Horcruxes
From THE KARIN, 2 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
I was walking down the street (how Dickensian and utterly, typically boring), en route to home sweet home, and I thought about something. I tried to figure out where my home was. Because I love my parents, my dog and the lovely house where they all live, I want to say, “My home is in [...]

Walking through the aisles populated by [...]

2010 Kick Ass Time
From THE KARIN, 2 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Fun fact: I was born in the year of the fire tiger – um, can’t you tell', – back in the hot and Soviet 1986 (eat your shorts, I’m young and loving it).
Not only do I like the fact that 2010, when split, is 20:10 (2, 2, 2!), but just a nice set of wholesome [...]

I made a promise to myself (masochistic in some sense) that I will top the number of blog entries written last year in December. I’ve to write about 14 more entries. Seriously, you want to hear about this' I can expose a lot more than one can normally allow a public blog which gets visited [...]
