To live in the world

without becoming aware of

the meaning of the world

is like wandering about in a great library

without touching the books..

I've just dived into his version of world

trying to forget everything from my side of world..

Just sick & tired of mine..

One fine day.., the Distillery District Toronto Sep 17 2009

Edith Piaf: Non je ne regrette rien
No, absolutely nothing.
No, I regret nothing.

Neither the good done for me.
Nor the bad.
It's all the same to me.

No, absolutely nothing.
No, I regret nothing.

It's paid for, swept away, forgotten.
I don't give a damn for the past.

With my memories.
I lit the fire.
My sorrow, my pleasures..
I no longer need them

Swept away the lovers
with their tremolos.
Swept away forever

I start out again at zero.

No, absolutely nothing.
No, I regret nothing.

Neither the good done for me.
Nor the bad.
It's all the same to me.

No, absolutely nothing.
No, I regret nothing.

For my life, for my joys.
Today, they begin with you.

好好肥酒 Pasta & Beef over Pedavena Draught, Italian Restaurant Bldg 3. Distillery District Toronto Jun 4 2009

My favorite place in Distillery District when I feel thirsty. The Italian draft beer of Pedavena was so cool & fresh under the sun in the patio when I first came to this restaurant. Not too much flavoured, the Italian one was kind of best draft beer for my taste. I love the golden transparent color, soft & rich foam and the live tiny bubbles which are incessantly being created from the bottom of the trendy glass.

This time I tried another Calamari with Pasta but I found that the naming of the dish just confused me. I found 'Calamari del Lomonari..' or something like that on the menu so I thought it's calamari. But I found that it was a couple of sliced beef with pasta. Taste was not bad though I was bit disappointed. :-)

Couldn't be better alone..: Italian Pedavena and Calamari, Building No 3. Distillery District Toronto May 20 2009

There was very strong but warm wind in the acute edge of the corner in the patio in the Italian restaurant. I didn't know the place is for Italian until they recommended me the Italian draught for the first choice of drink. Usually they provide a list of beers starting from Mid-European ones followed by Canadian or American. Never heard Italian draft beer for the first one before. But they did and I willingly tried one of course.. And it was soooo goooood!!! The brewery name was Pedavena!! I tried two more glasses and much satisfied with the sexy shape of the glass as well.

Roasted calamari was excellent with slight taste of charcoal burn and quite matched with my beer.

As I was wholly tasting the brightness of the gorgeous afternoon sunshine under the strong wind with foamy draft beer in one hand, my favorite train was passing by my turf slowly and pompously.. resounding the nostalgic rhythm of the wheel noise... It couldn't be happier..

the Portraits, Thompson Landry Gallery The Distillery District Mill Street Toronto Mar 20 2009

Only I was reading was the agony in the shadow of the portraits.. even in the blue eye of the beauty.. people living in the era of no hope.. economically, ideologically, philosophically and ecologically, where could we find a hope???
