Fountainheads

11 Jul

I never thought this would happen. While having breakfast in a cafe near our office’s building, a customer sat in front of me reading the same book I’m reading, Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead. The same paperback version. I never thought that with the few different people I see in the cafe, I would find someone reading a philosophy novel. I often see people reading Sheldon’s or Brown’s or other contemporaries, but I never thought I’d see someone in front of me reading Ayn Rand, and the same title needless to say. (more…)

Into The Wild

28 Apr

If something strikes a nerve in my head I usually blog or linger a thought about it. However, due to some uncontrolled circumstances, I lost my inspiration over the weekend. So here I am again, trying to remember the moment which confirmed and disappointed my way of living. I may have seen a movie that could push “Mallrats” or “Good Will Hunting” down a notch. I’ve only seen “Into The Wild” once, so I don’t know the effect if I watch it over and over again. (more…)

Let’s earn a few bucks. It’s not really a necessity since hardly anybody visits this page. It doesn’t hurt the website layout and it doesn’t annoy the reader(s). Who knows, maybe in a month I get many visitors reading my recorded thoughts.

Today I slept on the bus and somebody woke me up at the terminal. That sure took my sleepiness away. I always oversleep and other passengers always wake me up… and it never feel comfortable. Today while walking the busy streets of downtown New York, all I can think of was the passenger who woke me up staring at me because I sure wore a colorful polo shirt and it’s not so hard to spot me. I didn’t even get a glimpse of my wake up caller because I was so ashamed to face her.

I also realized that I’m getting thinner and thinner as the summer goes on. How do I know that? Well I had to adjust my watch band down a notch. I eat a lot too and drink a lot of Coke again. Maybe I just need more sleep because it’s summer I dehydrate myself more rapid than during the winter. How I thought of that, I don’t know. Speaking of sleep, all I did Sunday was sleep.

I’ve caught up with Naruto a month ago and I’ve just gotten over my withdrawal period. The series is not yet over and I think it won’t be for the next couple of years or so. They release two episodes a month and an episode is more or less 20 minutes long. It’s frustrating waiting for the next episode. Thankfully, I get to like Bleach. I have exactly 100 episodes to catch up to. (BTW, I’m also awaiting next episodes of Kenichi).
