Mi corza
En Ávila, mis ojos…
– SIGLO XV
Mi corza, buen amigo,
mi corza blanca.
Los lobos la mataron
al pie del agua.
Los lobos, buen amigo,
que huyeron por el río.
Los lobos la mataron dentro del agua.
– Rafael Alberti (poeta español, 1902-1999)

Today is 설날 [seollal = lunar new year]. A holiday, and the beginning of the Year of the Monkey.
Koreans celebrate the lunar new year by eating seaweed soup with ttoek (plain rice-cake) for breakfast. I had some "instant" 미역국 (miyeokguk = seaweed soup) and had bought some tteok in a bag from the convenience store downstairs yesterday.
So I did that – picture at right.
Utterly apropos, because of the video…
What I'm listening to right now.
Coldplay, "Adventure Of A Lifetime."
Lyrics.
Turn your magic on
Umi she'd say
Everything you want's a dream away
And we are legends every day
That's what she told me
Turn your magic on,
To me she'd say
Everything you want's a dream away
Under this pressure under this weight
We are diamonds
Now I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart underneath my skin
And I feel my heart beating
Oh you make me feel
Like I'm alive again
Alive again
Oh you make me feel
Like I'm alive again
Said I can't go on, not in this way
I'm a dream that died by light of day
Gonna hold up half the sky and say
Only I own me
And I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart underneath my skin
Oh I can feel my heart beating
Cause you make me feel
Like I'm alive again
Alive again
Oh you make me feel
Like I'm alive again
Turn your magic on, Umi she'd say
Everything you want's a dream away
Under this pressure under this weight
We are diamonds taking shape
We are diamonds taking shape
If we've only got this life
This adventure oh then I
And if we've only got this life
You get me through
And if we've only got this life
In this adventure oh then I
Want to share it with you
With you
With you
Yeah I do
Woohoo
Woohoo
Woohoo
[daily log: walking, yeah right]
