Shall we gather at the river... where bright angel-feet have trod...

well you know..
as much as i dislike to admit it
i was setting up the dinner for tonight
for mum's bday
i suddenly thought of cloudstreet

"because, look, even the
missing are there, the gone and the taken
are with them in the shade pools of the peppermints
by the beautiful, the beautiful the river."

"the river of faces from before,
the dark and the light, the forgotten,
the silent, the missing who watch"


as much as i said i may have hated it then
i guess its sorta grown on me
well not that i like the entire book
or the fact that the whole book sorta seems very plotless
(the reconciliation of two families over 20 years in one house)
but some of the lines in there are so pretty

no point to this but yep

Wonders of the World...

was just looking at the msn contact list before
and well what i found rather intruiging
was the fact that under the ninemsn videos bits
was this lil one where it says

"two otters holding hands whilst taking a nap
at [insert name of city] zoo"

i dunno
looking at it and all i thought of straight away was
why is this so amazing that it was recorded
and put up?
seriously.. is it really such an amazing thing?

the fact that whatever comes up in daily life
we usually in our own minds put a predicted judgement to
whether or not we'll cast our interest in that direction
we have our expectations
and from what we've experiences we change our expectations
so that our lil view through the window to our world
makse sense to us
we generalise to classify.. a human universal
things we generally internalise so we dont spend like what?
6 hours on deciding whether or not we need to brush out teeth?

hmm eg. of expectation?
phil will be dead boring AGAIN
if i have the exact same freud lecturer for phil
solution:
bring the text book in and write notes from textbook
therefore using time wisely

though why is it then..?
that we choose to put ourselves above animals
other than our desired belief to be superior to them?
we ARE one of them
i dont see big news flashes just cos a couple are holding hands
why should there be for otters?
cos... i dont care
i dont find it amazing
but at the same time i didnt belittle my expectations of them
to such that the possible chance of them doing such a thing
is like zilch..
so that in the case of the event occuring im not standing there
making a video of them actually in the act
and broadcasting it across the net

why am i actually blogging this?
coz im highly irratable atm
despite the bright outlook for the week
i cant believe im actually grim and annoyed
well with a sprinkling of happys here and there
namely being at uni..
tho im not quite sure why..
maybe coz there's people around ^^

hmm strangely i feel a need to go buy earrings :S
and you'd think i have enough
guess with accessories.. there can never be enough :P
mm worse is still to continually lose them
i cant believe i lost another earring
damnit.. now have another weird loner earring

with having to be up early over the weekend
supposedly up early this morning
( i gave up and went back to sleep.. stuff chem)
i have to be up early again tomoz
bright an early for another round of lectures
at least there's no phil for the current moment
i cant believe the number of people attending the lectures
like fell 50% nearly after the lecturer change
mm i need to work on my attention span
and staying awake to listen to lecture techniques
whist he my just need to brush up on keeping audience attention

and at that my attention is going
since i really think i need the sleep
nite nite
*hugs*
