Of being deep in thoughts and joining the emo trend

Kitty in deep thoughts

Again, I had written an extremely long post that actually has deep thoughts for once but my laptop overheated again. I wish Optimus Prime would go disturb other laptops. How about those Macs that everyone seems to be talking about? That post I have written was about to be one of my longest post in this blog. Seriously. Now, I am too lazy to regurgitate those thoughts I had at that time. Inspiration only knocks once in a while. And when you lost it, it is gone, until you see it again, it is different. It is like dropping a grape and it rolled under your refrigerator. 20 years later, when you move your refrigerator, you find a raisin and think, “Why is there a raisin here? I DON’T eat raisins, wait….”
I wish my ideas were this abundant

Yes, the grape is like my blog idea, but since I have lost it, even if I can still remember it, it is all dried up and I doubt anyone would eat the raisin, huh? If you would eat it, I think you need to see someone.

It is exam season for everyone else and they all seem stressed. I have no exams coming and I sincerely thought stress wouldn’t be with me this time. Boy, was I wrong! My project isn’t going as smoothly as I thought and things a failing. Bad. Well, it is not like this will decide if I fail or pass my Honours, so I shouldn’t be that bothered about it. Unlike those taking their make-or-break or GPA7-or-Super-High-Distinction-GPA9000 deciding exams, I look to be in a better position huh? So, I resolve not to show too much unhappiness about my project.

Even my blog lacks the cheery feeling compared to the one before. Yes, to those who are slightly less observant, I changed my blog layout. I don’t blame you for not noticing, it was, after all just a few subtle changes. You see, I felt that the previous blog title has the word ‘childish’ and despite disagreements by others, I don’t think that word fits me anymore. 

That is mainly because recently, I have quite a number of deep thoughts. It is not like I rarely ‘think’, it is that my recent thoughts are more grown up that my previous ones. Previously, my thoughts consists of questions like ‘are oranges named after the colour or is the colour orange named after the fruit’ or discovering that eggs are the chicken’s version of menses.




You'll never see this in the same way ever again

But now, I started thinking more about my future, many thanks to recent discussions that I had to sit in. It made me question various events in my past, of things that I should or shouldn’t have let go. With a flush of emotions, I realised that I may have yet to put down these burden of memories of my past, I just got too used to carrying them. Somehow, I felt that the only way this can be resolved only when I’m back in my home country about half a year from now.

So, in meantime, I should use my time in thinking about stuff that are actually useful to the rest of the world, like politics perhaps?


Calvin learnt things the hard way



 Or preparing myself for the future?


Be prepared, really prepared


Gotta get some of those, soon.

So, for now, I’m changing my thoughts. Here is something to think about.

Below are the fossilized forms of some Old English words:-
Swim, Swam, Swum
Sing, Sang, Sung

Now imagine and figure out...
What the Present Continuous and alternative Past form of the word SHUT would be?

Toodles.

    I think it is possible, though i have never tried it. I feel like feeding my laptop raisins to make it run a little bit smoother. How is studying going for you?

    Jiarong, You'll never eat eggs the same way again? How did you use to eat it and how are you planning to eat it from now on?
