lost interest

in the mountain... guy: 'join us...' me: 'huh?!' he points to a radio: 'we do radio...' me: 'oh... i won't be able to take pics if i'm holding a radio...' guy: 'it doesn't have to be now...' me: 'i come here only thrice a year...' guy: 'it can be done in manila...' uhm... i don't have a radio.. and i don't intend to buy one... not anymore. there was a time i used to want to take it up -- yearS back. a friend and i were talking then and i somehow mentioned it to him and, ta-daaan! could you imagine, it turned out he was heavily into it. he even showed me his cards. plus he gave me a book. for a while i was trying to memorize alpha, bravo, charlie, delta and this and that code. i got too busy, however, and i wasn't able to pursue it. i've forgotten about it. now i'm reminded again. i'm not interested anymore though. yes, it's true... some things you really have to cultivate otherwise they'd wither and die.
