Coming down
it's quite hard for me to write like most others. whenever i try to write a sort of "today, i bought a bag, ate a hotdog and skinned a cat" type blog, i get arthritis and ADD at the same time.
i really do want to write with less of a wide angle (although quite reflective if i do say so myself) lense of the world,society, and all the other big ones. i think i need to start small. i am by no means a journalist, but a boy can dream can't he? maybe i should say a man... makes me sound more like... manly. here is me, starting small:
today i woke up around 9 am. still recovering from my sleep depriving 14hr essay. i wrote from 5pm till 9am the following morning, virutally non-stop. i do believe i lost vision for a few minutes. motor skills went out the window when i was eating lunch after i handed in the essay. anyway. back to today. i didn't really do much. went to UBC to get some work done, but got hungry and had to leave.
pleasant surprise though, i met adam at the back of the bus. that was pretty cool because i don't see him very much now hez all married (not like i saw him much before, but seems like the thing to say). he was doing a math competition from 8am - 2pm. some crazy shit i tell ya. supposed to be good for a resume... i mean, if you're a math major like he is. smart guy. used to be a close friend. now just acquaintance. alas, like many other close friends i used to have. some never stay sober enough; others turn away from me; michael turned coat; and others turned gay. i guess i shuld be happy adam is still around. i have very few friends that i've kept since high school. that wouldn't be so bad a thing if a) i had made closer friends in university b) kept those friends that i did make c) wasn't so damned sentimental.
anyway, back to my day. quite cold today. coldest yet. i'm hoping that some kind soul would grace me with an adidas winter jacket. or maybe a north face one that's not so puffy. oooh look at the material me. meh. a little materialism is ok. although, SUCH a turn off.
yeah, i dunno if i can do much more of this for now. i do believe i've reached my limit of daily banter. i'll try again tomorrow... which should be in 3 minutes. peace, love, and whatever.. later.

Hi Mel Chua! So did you get your application in on time? I got my postcard back so they opened my application last week. Anyway, I really like your posts about your day and stuff. Well done. Keep up the good work!!

i enjoyed your banter. it was nice to read. i laughed pretty hard when i read: "oooh look at the material me." i have no idea why i thought it was so funny. i think it's because i pictured you saying it with this mocking tone... i dunno, but funny shit. keep it up mel chua.
