And the mid-semester exams are here! And what am I supposed to feel? ========== I haven't prepared as much as I should have for this mid-semester. Although I must say that after last semester's end-of-semester exams, I've more or less gotten the hang of what needs to be done when it comes to academia. Still,... Continue Reading →
She Looked at Me
And I said, "You know, life's so complicated now. It's like, there's so many things happening -- there's just so much sh*t. But you know what? I like it this way. Imagine if all this hadn't happened, life would be so... uninteresting. You know what I mean?" She nodded. I continued, "oddly enough, I like... Continue Reading →
On Needing Solitude
Solitude is something I haven't had for a very long a time. Staying in a place like Currie Hall (a student hostel just off the University of Western Australia) has meant that I have found very little, if any, time and/or opportunities to be alone. Solitude, for me, is a need, not a want. I... Continue Reading →
Rivercruise 2007
Went for some event called "Rivercruise" last week, organised by Currie Hall (UWA). There was some pretty wild dancing and drinking and having fun (and yes, I know fun's relative). I wasn't intending to post any pictures, nor am I intending to, but here's some links to it. Wei Hao's River Cruise Set 1/2 (59... Continue Reading →
Incomprehensible
How odd. The closer I got to her, the less I seemed able to comprehend the person she was. The more I knew about her, the less I understood. And that led me to want to get away; away from her; away from all she stood for. The unknown in some circumstances create mystery and... Continue Reading →
It Ain't Me Babe
Here's yet another beautiful song! It Ain't Me Babe, Bob Dylan Go away from my window Leave at your own chosen speed I'm not the one you want, babe I'm not the one you need You say you're lookin' for someone Who's never weak but always strong To protect you and defend you Whether you...

On Beauty (and Dolphins)
Today while on our usual run along Swan River, Wei Hao and I came across the most beautiful sight, that of the diffused light of the rising sun, spreading itself into a majestic reddish-orange -- like a phoenix. But like all good things, it didn't last long. By the time we went to have a... Continue Reading →
On Disliking People
Bothered by my inability to accept another for who he was, I asked a friend if he himself ever had problems with people. As far as I was concerned, this friend was well-liked, amiable, and friendly; and if there was anyone who would be accepting of people in general, it would be him. To my... Continue Reading →
Powerless Computing
As it just so happened, I forgot to bring my Mac's power adapter, and was thus left without a computer for the past week or so. What a pity, for I'm in love more than ever.
