My Dæmon, Aesop



Take the quiz on this flash animation. My Daemon will evolve in 12 days time based on input from you guys. :)

Oh ya, the flash a bit spoil, to go to next question, click on the patch of brown in the lower right hand corner.

I thought of Cessy when I saw this toy. :p

People, People.

I have friends who are disgusted by humanness. They wish that people were always rational, consistent, and beautiful. And I have friends who are enchanted by humanness. They wish that people were more unique, inconsistent, and blemished.

It doesn’t matter whether we feel let down or relieved when we learn that our idols are, in fact, people. Because they’ve always been people. They argue, they cry, they laugh, and they stumble.

But so do we.

In our daily lives, we share common experiences with friends, coworkers, lovers, and random people we cross on the street. But those experiences aren’t as similar as we think or sometimes expect.

A guy and a girl may have intercourse. To her, it’s making love, but to him it’s fucking. A mother may discipline a child. To her it’s good parenting, to the child it’s tyranny. Two startup founders may work toward the same vision. To Dan, that vision is about people. To Wilford, it’s about technology.

I've started reading this blog ever since Evie mentioned it in one of her LJ posts, and I really like these two posts.

I like people. I know I complain about them all the time, but deep down inside, I like people. I like observing people interact with one another, how some people are more easy-going than others and how others can start shouting at each other at the drop of a hat. I am fascinated with observing and trying to understand people, but like all men, I find it tough to understand why women do the things they do... When they're not doing rational people things like working. :p

I suspect ah bit has a little lop ear blood in him. He's half lop eared, but has fur like a lion head and colored like a hotot. Breed crisis. :x

Busy Week Ahead!

It's gonna be a busy week.

JLPT 3 exam on Sunday, debonding my braces on Tuesday, guild outing and Japanese Qualifying Test on Friday. I totally missed out booking a slot for the qualifying test. :( Gonna try and get a slot. If I don't, I can only enrol in the Intermediate class with my JLPT 4 cert. D:

In any case, I have no confidence in passing the JLPT 3 exam. Haven't touched my Japanese for 3 whole years. Time spent in JMS is not counted. :x

Edit: Yes! And BBQ on Saturday with MZ. :D
