Next Year's Windowsill Flower

I figured I should buy one orchid next year after I saw those tiny but expensive flowers in the pot which posted by some acquaintance on social media. I know they all like to show off their property, from the luxury clothes, bags perfumes to accessories, even the domestic plants have to be of classical taste.  My bad my bad, this is not the age to like the cheap and big stuff, need to focus on the quality and the brand value. Wait? Plants have brand value? Speaking of the orchid, I noticed them in the store in spring, when I look for the seeds of big flowers. In my picky eyes, they were too ordinary. My fault, because I have seen hundreds of various valuable orchids in an orchid garden near my residence when I was a kid, those in the store for sale were too common. Besides, these tiny precious flowers require extra care. I don't feel the strength of life from them. Anyway, they are expensive, so they are more than plants, just like those bags, clothes, accessories.  Do I reall...

House Price

Not the first time I checked the house price there. Last time, probably last year, I checked the houses located in the city center, plus the facilities and the educational resources near the houses. I even searched the best middle school where many celebrities used to study in.  This time, I searched it again just because I saw the subtitle on a video. I clicked the video, which depicted the state from various aspects. Including the brief comparison of the housing price in different cities. Hence I searched the average salary and daydreamed how many years it would take to own a house there if I was a local. The simplest math result showed that if I had a normal job, and the spending of income is zero, I could afford a house after five years.  Hey you, yeah, you, come back, don't go too far. What's the point to do the calculation if you have never been there? You ain't creating fictional life!  For the bigger subtitle on the unexpectedly-seen video when I scrolled my phone...

Shape the Dough

The necessary step before the doughs go to the fridge for long hours is to shape them. Seperate the big dough into equal ones. Sprinkle the counter with flour, take a soft dough, pull up the edges, fold it to the center, turn it upside down, hold the dough in palm, turn it around and around on the counter. People like to put the doughs into airtight containers, I've never tried though. Doughs for what? PIZZAS!

Walked Together

That was a sunny morning, after we left the office. I walked with them all the way, they were talking in a language I did not understand. But I felt calm and safe. They are the few other people I know in this place. That sunny morning, I didn't wear my hat, my face got sunburnt.

Favorite Position

The only position for me to sleep away the swelling inside my left back is not to lie on my right side or on my back, but to lie on my stomach.  Other positions made me feel like I did not sleep.
