Boy, I was fat...
My daily occurrences, my weekly thoughts, my monthly plans and my yearly reflections. Writing about life is easy. Living through it certainly is not.
Background
My name is Michael Rivera and I am a Filipino-Chinese, 18-year-old student living in Canterbury, but originally from Hong Kong. My parents divorced when I was two, and when I grew up, there were two sides of me: the wild, outdoorsy, gutsy side, and the conservative, intellectual, scholarly side. I spent two years living beside a beach in the countryside. It was then that I learned how to swim, how to fish and how to ride a bike. I love the outdoors, especially when having barbecues and hiking. Outside of that time, my more studious side of me reads, writes, and has a great interest in a broad range of subjects including: television and film, travel, anthropology, human cultures, linguistics, food and drink, psychology, philosophy, literature, forensics, Greco-Roman mythology, European history and politics, South American culture and geology. My deepest love goes to, well, my best friend. But the love that exists just a tiny fraction below that amount of love goes to television series, beautiful beaches, lime margaritas, and books considered classics.

Michael,
To quote my son's much overused word, you look "sweet" in the pix.
Everyday Housewife: Thanks. Everyone in my life that sees me baby photos thinks so too. I, of course, disagree.
Little ones are supposed to be fat...where do you think the term "baby fat" comes from? And your mom is very pretty!
Great shot. I think my mother burned all my baby pictures. (took a close look at the book... you were a very inquisitive kid!)
得家律士
Whoa yeah, the book, Michael! You still are an inquisitive kid I will bet.
J.J.: Thank you. I think so too, honestly (and by honestly, I mean I'm not saying it just because she's my mother).
得家律士 and Alan: I know. That was why I typed 'very' in italics.
Haha! I just looked at the book...too funny!
It must've been more fascinating than the previous page. :P
