In Hope of a Better World

This post will be simple and sweet. Apologies if it’s unappealing. Wow, time really does fly. I am going to be 21 soon. An adult, too quick. During birthdays we are supposedly entitled to one wish, and this is my wish (request or whatever nicer words that fits in) : i) Don’t buy me any presents....

One Minute to Midnight

[Disclaimer: The photos have no correlation with the blog post. It's just to highlight my most precious moments throughout 2010.] Self-reflection is no mere staring in the mirror. It involves stripping pass those carefully installed pretenses and trying to reconcile whether one can be comfortable with...

Prophecy

[As part of a blogging exercise, Zhi Wei and I have agreed to write something entitled "Prophecy."] I’ve always been curious on how fortune-tellers come about their decisions – be it reading tea leaves, gazing at crystal balls or reading palms. Considering that these fortune telling do not...

Crossroads.

What Am I Thinking (4)? – Forgiving Myself

I sometimes wonder whether I think too much; whether I see things that aren’t there or missing crucial signs that are just right in front of me. Today’s finals succeeded in reducing me to rumbles: Economics of Waste (Economics 395) is the jewel in my academic treasure trove. I adore the professor...

What Am I Thinking (3)? – My Circle of Life

Vi-Zanne Ho came to town. And thus, I divorced my macro econs. =D Vi-Zanne Ho came to town. I took her around. Her face devoid of frown. Oh, the happiness floats around! They rhyme.

What Am I Thinking (2)? – Lines and Boundaries

I am happy. Isn't that enough? We make chores out of everything, from trivial urges to consequential decisions. Being sociable/making friends, something that ought to be so ingrained in our human psyche can sometimes, unfortunately, be turned into a tedious and cumbersome chore. Coming abroad,...
