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. =)

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*

Looking back on my last post, I am pretty sure I was drunk on bubble tea.
"I am attempted to change blog hosts".
What the heck was that? All your base are belong to us?

*sob* *sob*, so my flooble chatterbox has been deleted 'cos nobody posts to it.. and i'm too lazy to either remove the code or sign up again.

But yes, i've been too busy (lazy) to do a lot of things this semester, and suddenly.. the semester has ended.. (had my last class just now).

Argh!! it's scary.. I have only ONE more semester of education in my life!! (at least for the next 6 and a half years). I don't want to grow up!!!

Okay, so the plan is : world domination within the next 6 months. Are you with me? Figured if I can take over the world, i might be able to stay a student forever, without worrying about my GPA, which seems to be a pretty ideal state.
