Diversions and delusions about being on or away from the island of Guam. Moving is the proverbial reset button. and now here i am post-move and still in reset mode. as i've declared in my manifesto.moving home after being off-island for many years is an opportunity to make guam a better place. it sounds so cheesy but i am seeing this movement everywhere and i am excited to be a part of this climate change. So about that damn detox. Posted by the fab mimi. For everything food-related and off-island family.

Diversions and delusions about being on or away from the island of Guam. Almost all of the traveling i've partaken in the last decade and a half of my life was done for the sake of a wedding and this trip was not an exception! I am a self-proclaimed SME (subject matter expert) in wedding planning, wedding attending, and wedding partying! Ubering in a foreign country. The mindblowing foie gras burger i ordered at 1am from a shack in front of a club. My eyes were far hungrier for my own good. there was...

Diversions and delusions about being on or away from the island of Guam. The guam state: the state of being on island, FOR GOOD. My baby sister stayed just long enough for a night of shenanigans (albeit multiple attempts), beach bumming, and repetitive eating followed by complaining. Posted by the fab mimi. On December 9, 2015 at 6:13 PM. The best thing about being away from Guam and experiencing what other places in the world have to offer is the knowledge that you bring back to Guam. I know exactly...

Diversions and delusions about being on or away from the island of Guam. Our second stop was a veteran memorial that looked onto the valley opposite the shoreline. i was amazed at the pristine and dense jungles plunging below where towering coconut trees crowded seemingly unchartered paths. there are countless memorials and war relics dotting the roadways that i would have never discovered on my own.

off-island state of mind: guam state of mind
http://thefabmimi.blogspot.com/2016/02/guam-state-of-mind.html
Diversions and delusions about being on or away from the island of Guam. Guam state of mind. That's right, it's been nearly 6 months and it still does not feel permanent: i live here now. i have not yet become cognitively aware of old and new. There is not an ounce of urgency or demise even when times seem challenged. i welcome the privilege of not being able to complain about that for awhile, living the guam state of mind.

off-island state of mind: breathe
http://thefabmimi.blogspot.com/2016/08/breathe.html
Diversions and delusions about being on or away from the island of Guam. OR SO I THOUGHT. Not when my personal matters have now been shaken up: my marriage ended on a down-note and by bad decisions that were not my own and are not within my capacity to tolerate. it's cryptic I know but I've now re-settled with my folks and my toddler in tow. But amazingly, I finally can breathe. What happens next has yet to be written. Someone out there will be my match for life. Posted by the fab mimi.

Diversions and delusions about being on or away from the island of Guam. If he quietly smiles remembering when we last met. If he eagerly awaits my word. If he skillfully lurks where I once was. If he knowingly seeks my time. If he would have me. If he would want the same. If he would try the unthinkable. If it is worth it. If it will work. If it all I'd ever want the same.
