okay, an hour into creating a tumblr account and looking at pretty, pretty pictures, i have realized tumblr is like information overload. there are too many things to look at, too many things to reblog, too many things to ponder on. what i don't like is how you think the picture or quote expresses exactly how you feel, but in actuality, this process of constantly reblogging just kinda dilutes your thoughts and personality. 

perhaps when i get used to that notion i'll move over. but for now this is still a comfortable space. 

(but seriously, tumblr's layouts just totally pwn ljs)

 random shower musings:
  • it is so easy to fall into the trap of subconsciously wanting to be mediocre, especially when you're a lazy person. 
  • i am a little potato. 
  • when all else fails, throw in a hedgehog.
don't ask. 

stress is inversely related to productivity, which is inversely related to the number of irrelevant and nonsensical blog posts.

 "A faithful love - if it does not wear out - is a way for man to maintain as long as possible the best of himself. This is how fidelity is given a new value. But such a love lies outside the eternal. It is the most human of feelings with all the limitation and exaltation that the word involves. This is why man realizes himself only in love because he finds there in a dazzling form the image of his condition without future... All this illustrates the fact that absurdity finds its expression in the opposition between what lasts and what does not last.

We belong to a world that does not last. And all that does not last - and nothing but what does not last - is ours. Thus it is a matter of rescuing love from eternity or at least from those who dress it up in the image of eternity."

I asked for strength that I might achieve;
I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey. 

I asked for health that I might do greater things; 
I was given infirmity that I might do better things. 

I asked for riches that I might be happy; 
I was given poverty that I might be wise. 

I asked for power that I might have the praise of men; 
I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God. 

I asked for all things that I might enjoy life; 
I was given life that I might enjoy all things. 

I got nothing that I had asked for, 
but everything that I had hoped for. 

Almost despite myself my unspoken prayers were 
        answered; 
I am, among all men, most richly blessed. 


- Prayer of an unknown confederate soldier (1861-3)

1. there'd be a lot less assignments to finish. 

2. professors wouldn't cram all their deadlines together. 

3. yaw would be more interesting so that publication design would be a livelier class. 

4. i would actually be good at publication design. 

5. a certain cinema studies professor would stop calling Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata "the studio Ghibli people".

6. everyone would have more time to spend with the people they want to spend time with. 

7. korean quizzes would be a lot easier so that i would stop feeling like crap and stop harbouring thoughts about s/u-ing it. 

8. lcw would actually be exciting. 

9. pusan national university would get off their lazy asses and give us a reply, dammit. 

10. all harry potter movies would be like deathly hallows part i. 

but in this world, nothing is ever ideal. 

oh well.
