welcome
No one ever followed his genius til it misled him. Though the result were bodily weakness, yet perhaps no one can say
that the consequences were to be regretted, for these were a life in conformity to higher principles. If the day and night are such
that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more starry,
more immortal,--that is your success. All nature is your congratulation, and you have cause momentarily to bless yourself. The
greatest gains and values are farthest from being appreciated. We easily come to doubt if they exist. We soon forget them.
They are the highest reality....the true harvest of my daily life is somewhat as intangible and indescribable as the tints
of morning or evening. It is a little star-dust caught, a segment of the rainbow which I have clutched.
--Henry David Thoreau

profile
There are two words to describe me: 'atheistic' and 'cynical'.
Anything else, you'll have to find out by yourself.
Don't like it, sue me.
And that's the awful truth.

Happy Chinese New Year! This year, I got a little more money than I usually do since my parents had guests over and some of them gave me a red packet. Total amount this year: $244. This is a spectacular upgrade from last year's $180 but it really doesn't matter since there is nothing in particular that I really want this year. I'm probably gonna buy some books, mostly classics, and maybe a new shirt. But that's about it. Everything else goes into my bank. I was watching Cold Mountain the other day, starring Nicole Kidman, Renee Zellweger, Jude Law, Natalie Portman, I think Gimli from LotR was there too, and some other really familiar actors whom I can't recall their names. My goodness, it was such a good movie, and Renee was so goddamn funny, which made everything a whole lot lighter. It was a movie about the Civil War, and it was so poignant! Naturally, whatever love that was found was eventually lost, but all good Oscar winning movies are like that. It was bittersweet at least, and I'm so gonna read the book. I just read finished Pet Sematary by Stephen King, and it was so chilling, but so good. A terrible cliffhanger though, and I hate those kind of books, but this one was okay, and any other ending just wouldn't seem right. I'm beginning to like Stephen King, I mean I read a couple of his books but I just couldn't bring myself to finish them. So far, I've only finished Pet Sematary and Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption, but they were all very good. I'm reading Cell now, and my sis says it's a bit like War of the Worlds, which is one of my favourite classics. Anyway, I can't believe I actually managed to complete all my holiday homework, which includes a History project, a Chinese compo, my Commonwealth essay, and a very long and tiring art piece. I'm so proud of myself!
