Journey of the Heart

There’s really something to be said for delayed gratfication. As some of my blog readers already know, I’ve been feverishly longing after the iPod Nano for quite a while now. First it was an article in Time magazine that I saw. I was impressed but unmoved. Then I saw the TV ad, and well… I […]

Sometimes I don’t know what gets into me… Maybe it’s some pent up or unused energy that sometimes wells up within me.

Some parts of the analysis were eerily (and some parts sadly) true. Strength of the preferences % Extroverted (1) Intuitive (12) Feeling (62) Judging (33) I’m: slightly expressed extrovert slightly […]

I got a phone call tonight, from someone I hadn’t seen since 1987. At first I thought it was a wrong number, because I didn’t recognize the name the caller was asking for. Then she said she was looking for “小恩”, and I knew it had to be somebody from loooong ago. It was my […]

The brilliant Kenneth has made good his promise to improve on Les Poulets. *shakes head* I’m beginning to wonder what kinds of questions were on the LSATs… :P (changes are aptly reflected in red)
