Interests: If I paid $25 for a Xanga Premium account, I get to put whatever I want on this left columny space, instead of "interests", "expertise" and whatever else. So here i am, trying to fool the system, by everything in this space, except for "interest", "expertise" and what have you.
Expertise: Few things to help you navigate this blog-site. (1) For PHOTOS, click on the "Visit my website" link below. This will bring you to J's netsnapshot gallery, which is full of my photos. get the drift? =) I'm too lazy to get my own. Furthermore, I'm beginning to like photos less and less. I can see the age creeping up on me, time working its slow and certain decay upon my features. ARRRGHHHH!!! Immortality! Where is it?!?

Reminiscence

Don't worry, it took me dictionary.com to spell the title.

Realised that I've really written many many things here in Xanga. I'm glad I did, because I've forgotten a lot of these events and how I felt about them. =)

To Kill A Mockingbird with Linear Equations (duplicated with permission from myself)

I remember the painful day that I decided to abandon my budding literary career despite my obvious talents to pursue the harsh engineering subjects, simply because I could NOT tolerate the subjectiveness and unpredictability and inconsistency and total injustice of my secondary school literature teacher's grading style. I decided that numbers were safer.

UNTIL we've recently suffered the most injust grading process EVER, in an ENGINEERING CLASS, by a full fledged ENGINEERING professor, whose appreciation of our quantitative and scientific methods might as well have been that of a train conductor's appreciation of Picasso - i.e. random. And it's not even random with a proper distribution, mean and variance, it's a randomness that will terrify Brownian motion scientists and Chaos Theory mathematicians.

So why did I abandon what I thought were the unpredictable arts for a "science" that is even more subjective and misunderstood? Are physics laws really more like Murphy's laws or the 5th amendment? Should I have instead embarked on a stellar career of writing haikus and fanfiction and substandard chinese xiaolianbis?

The weirdest thoughts occur to you on the last day of your education career.


Migration failure?

In an effort to capture a wider audience, I have decided to start double-posting on both my xanga and blogger blog. (have become rather lonely lately at blogspot.com). sob.

So yes, coming out of more boredom, I have decided to migrate to blogger.com, if there are no violent objections.

I'm having a case of "whoosh". In case you don't know what that means, it's stands for a moment where fear comes crushing down on you. Sorta like when you realise that the doorknob you're touching contains billions of germs, out of which there's a 0.01% that two of them might be death-threatening.

Why? As with all egotistical and extremely self-important pple, I got bored this morning and started not only googling my own name, but also msnsearching (gasp!) my name, as well as my nicknames and login names and such.

Omg.

We've probably been leaving fingerprints over the internet rather recklessly for the past X years, and it may have been all well and good before search capabilities became so overwhelmingly amazing.

Sigh. But I guess we'll eventually come to the point where we're not so internet-shy anymore, right? After all, what do I really have to hide? =) *goes off to create a new identity*
