Little things #26 Go to the cinema and homemade popcorn

 #103. Go to the cinema and homemade popcorn My friend and I went to the cinema to watch a movie. I had the idea of making popcorn myself and secretly bringing it in. And I actually did it. Mission completeed LOL. #104. They said that she looked like me I remember when I was in high school, some of my friends excitedly told me that an actress from a Thai movie looked like me. I felt really supprised and excited hearing that especially because she was an actress. Out of curiosity, I watched the movie, A Little Thing Called Love , which became one of the first Thai films I had ever seen. And yes, there was a bit of similarity for real. We both had deep brown skin that stood out among our peers. There was also that innocent side, mixed with a little “craziness” at least from other people's point of view. The kind of presence that stands out, yet feels a bit different, even slightly strange to others. I don't remember all the details of the movie now, but I do know that I'...

Are they like you and me?

Image
A re they like you and me? Are electricity and magnetism like you and me,  At first unfamiliar, then slowly intertwined.  The more we love, the more we long to understand,  Even the smallest things begin to make sense.  Electricity and magnetism cannot be apart.  So could we ever drift away?

"First Love, please"

Image
I walked into the little coffee shop where I had an appointment with my friend. Standing in front of the counter, I looked through the menu. Some of the drink names were really strange, not related to the drinks at all. The barista smiled at me as if they had been waiting. “First Love, please”, I said. The coffee came decorated with a Christmas theme filled with bears, since the holiday season was getting close.  And just like that, this became my tiny story for the beginning of December 2025: walking into a coffee shop, ordering their signature First Love , and taking pictures with the bears.  PS.  In Vietnam, bears are often seen as symbols of love, like a girlfriend or boyfriend Hanoi, March 03, 2025
