Complicated Simplicity

Where's the Feni?

My ramblings for the week

First off, as you might have noticed, I changed my template again. I like the colours. Clean, crisp and smooth. It reminds me of some moments in my past: the warm crystallized sand that I used to scoop up in my hand and let slip through my fingers.

It's almost time for me to leave. I have way too much stuff for me to take along. So I decided to clear up my room today. Disposing off my belongings is an extremely hard process for me. Do I throw away this thing which might be useful in the future? What do I do with all these text books and notes from school? Most of my text books cost around 100-150 dollars, and I put in a huge effort to do those assignments. Am I to throw them all away, after four years of sweating blood for them? Shipping the books is always an option, but a friend tells me that the shipping costs would be substantially more than what I paid for the books.

I've decided to learn French again. Let's see how that goes. Pourquoi? Just because. I like learning languages. I think also brush up on a couple of other languages. I've had enough of computer languages for now. I feel I need to get in touch with my inner self, regain that bit of human emotion that I seem to have lost.

A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it. - Rabindranath Tagore

    I'm going back to q8 for a while. Visit my parents and work for a bit before possibly heading to the U.S. next year for further studies.

    I actually had on planned on changing the colours of the previous template. However, I found out that the curved edges of the boxes are actually images, so basically i would have to design the new images myself too. I would have to find out how many image files are there, find the size of each, design them in photoshop or whatever....you get my point. Too much work for lazy ol' me :).

    I have most of my books too. However many of these books are really big and heavy, it would cost me quite a lot to ship them.

    I had actually learnt how to read and write french back in grades 8-10 (and did pretty well in it too :P). However I never had the need to use the language before and I've pretty much forgotten most of what I learnt. It shouldn't be too hard to relearn. Maybe I should have joined some program at the French embassy hehe.

    Hehe...it was actually creamish (or so I thought) with a chocolate brown border. But digitalblasphemy (who thought it looked more orangish) kept complaining about it so blue it is.
