Anticipation


Stars - On Peak Hill. Interesting animation/vid.


The weather's been pretty rainy, but that's awesome. Sets me in a very good mood. It's Sunday! Like a nice, soothing lullaby, the pouring continuous rain made me slept through the whole morning till noon. Well I guess it's been ages since I've found myself waking up anytime beyond noon. Went out with a bunch of french class people yesterday. Tried to finish up things by today but the weather's just too comfortable :) Finished reading my novel and I'm in love with yet another character. Before this I wrote stuffs on academic woes and such but I decided to delete those because I hate to have my blog to be heavily-filled with my academic life.

Although my summer break seems to be uncertain in terms of activities and plans, I am really looking forward to it! There are some stuffs I'd really wanna do and feel so excited about, but what is it really? Like I said things are uncertain, I could be doing an internship, or simply a part-time job. Or go on some trip? Most importantly I wanna do things I've been meaning to do, like to cook and bake. And hopefully I'll be involved in the YOG too, will be a great experience! And the list goes on. I just want to do things without having to rush. I just had a great conversation with Lina on Friday night and we agree that being in Singapore constitutes rushing like 90% of your time, which sucks. I remembered the laid-back KL trip to see Kiki last summer and the 3 of us stayed up late and stayed in bed till noon like no one's business. And then we'd head to Pyramid to savour the great food and just hang. Damn. Although time leaps like a bullet train now, I simply hope the summer will come soon! Not saying that I want school to end, I actually love this semester's modules the most. Like I am temporarily a health psychologist, an expert on personality styles and cognition, and one who speaks some French and is very critical on Singapore's society, ha, rrrrrrright. Lame.

We're saying 'summer' as if there really is such a season in Singapore. Haha. But that's what they call it, *shrugs

Anyway, in general, I hate word limits!

Reclaiming my voice

It has been more than 2 years since I published anything on this blog. I have written a few reflections quite abit during this time, but they are mostly in draft versions, probably reflective of the scatteredness of my thought processes, or the ongoing engagement with the topic which has yet found a proper resolve (or is there ever a resolve really?), or just me finding mere words to articulate my thoughts that are waiting to be entertained and possibly verbalised or written. I'm driven to write this post precisely because I can't entirely ignore the nagging voice inside my head, telling me to use writing as a tool to not only express myself, but to reclaim my voice. It is such an insanely noisy world. The constant stream of information from different online platforms not only pull me from various directions, but it spreads my attention too thin that it is impossible to follow one stream of thought, sit on it for awhile, slowly reflect and if possible, articulate it. It is not ...

Information vs. Knowledge

“To know how to put what knowledge in which place is wisdom. Otherwise, knowledge without order and seeking it without discipline does lead to confusion and hence to injustice to one's self.” - Syed Muhammad Naquib Al-Attas This week's key takeaway for me is that; knowledge requires knowing its proper order and place.  Everything else is just information.

Infinity

unbounded to any definitions or limits, existing but not adequately known. this entity, being constantly talked about, pulls like an unbeatable gravitational force. we are always approaching, almost touching, existing in tandem, still, not yet meeting Infinity the eventual meeting where there are no bounds
