In my journey eastside I have encountered many things. As I emerged, face drinking the sun, just starting on my journey, I felt liberation and anticipation for what was to come. A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step, as we are wont to say. It was good to stand tall after [...]

A Mun of Fun!
Posted in Commentary, Everyday, Life, School on March 22, 2006 | Leave a Comment »
Apart from being the, and I quote, “largest collection of white tits and ass you’ll ever find” (no prize for guessing who said it), SiMUN was actually quite a lot of fun.

Here it comes again.
It’s strange, but I have a predilection for being immersed in bouts of frustration at painfully intermittent periods of my life.

Totality

Walking in the whispering wood
Past the fallen leaves
A boundless mist upon the mood

Filled with awful yearning
For dancing stars above the night
And vasty spirits beyond my sight
And knowledge, for which no man knows
But yet strives still, long and slow.

It is interesting how music can have such a profound effect upon memory. The sounds spin webs in your mind and it isn’t easy to disassociate them from impressions once they have settled into your brain.
I myself have not been immune to this, although I would hardly call it a liability. It just gives music [...]

Perdido Street Station
Posted in Books, Commentary on March 31, 2006 | 1 Comment »
Perdido Street Station is a celebration of grotesquerie in every sense of the word. It is an almost revoltingly eclectic conglomeration of the most far-reaching and diverse themes, motifs, and symbols in the realm of speculative fiction, sprung forth from the most fecund imagination of a British author set to outdo all his contemporaries in [...]
