Under Heaps of Yellowed Paper



Part of my routine every time I get the chance to take time off from work is to do installment versions of the Chinese tradition of spring-cleaning. By unclogging my house of clutters --- test papers, research work that did not see the light of a decent revalida, instructional plans, sketches, doodles, etc. --- I am, in effect, unclogging my mind of mental splinters or nagging thoughts of unfinished business. By doing the act of spring-cleaning, I am consoled with the thought that at least this part of my life is a little less disorganized.


I chose to write down my thoughts because I find remembering very difficult these past few months. I'm not sure if I'm down with something, but one thing's for certain: I had to do something about it before it's too late. So here it is.

Surviving in the City is Pretty Much Like Surviving in the Wild


Be careful. Every step you make could mean your end. Somehow, somewhere in the deep, dark corner of the world, lies your potential predator on a prowl. Mind. You are not in the jungle. THIS IS THE CITY I'M TALKING ABOUT. 

Ride with me, as I give you a tour of this place I call MY OPEN CONFINED RESERVE SAFARI. 

LET'S GO!
