A FEW ATTRACTIVE ENIGMAS
I am officially going to Burma at the start of the holiday
Am excited because I've been wanting to go. There is something about enigmas that calls for the soul? I do not how to tell you
Just that we want to know more of humanity's secrets, in hopes of finding/understanding ourselves a little better
Nevermind it, for it is too difficult to try to grasp a slippery feeling and pin it down in precious few words
I have been afraid to travel and leave before
for reasons I do not want to disclose here. Reasons that are no longer, however
Last time I got away was in October '09 (Shanghai) and that was wonderful
so I am optimistic.
Today in Biology I learnt that it is considered "crass" for "gene-hunters" to name discoveries after themselves
and so they choose an odd themed set of names
for example, inspired by cartoon characters - like Sonic (the hedgehog). HOW CURIOUS! Hearing this made me happy
and amused. Nicky gave me one of her really cool Faber-Castell erasers
I know it may not be that interesting to you but I like stationary OK
And I never really have any cool stationary
because I always use free pens
from hotels etc instead of buying.
1. An awkward way to sit, and my striped Topman shirt
2. Shrimp-card I made last night for Kyrre's birthday today
3. Useful for people that frequently lose their erasers (like me)
Walked
to the hawkers for lunch with Tel
I always realise I've missed being with her when we get around to being together
I ate alot, and contentedly. There was that man at that stall, where you pick from a variety of foods laid out, who always pretends to give me one tofu until I laugh/gesture quizzically to get him to give me more
Afterwards had Boost
Oh:
Also took a look at the exam schedule by Googling it (as Wallace recommended)
and I have an exam or two everyday for the first week, rrrr
Such a feeling of ominous imminence
wonderul and intimidating. It is startling
to know how close to the end we are at; the end which is the beginning of something unfathomable... at least from the point at which I stand presently
Yet another inexplicably enticing enigma
Or just an enticing prospect, if you'd rather it called that.
