Why?

Don't fix what's not broken! That's my thought. Why must we transfer to the new blogger when the old one works totally fine with me? Same with the stupid MSN that changed to Window's Live Messneger and the stupid updates for Window's Media Player. Granted I never updated to the newer versions for the later stuff, but I've heard horror stories about them.

Blah blah blah, valentines this valentines that. I hate you all, you non-single people. May you choke on chocolate and get pricked by roses. (Yea yea, one of these days my rage will subside. But before that, I shall rage to my heart's content).

Random thoughts after reading Ching's blog. I started comparing my past and present fears. I've always feared death as long as I remember, so at least that stayed a constant. I didn't used to fear flying, but in the last couple of years, during my trip to the Canadian east cost, I somehow developed a nasty fear of it. I used to fear riding on roller coasters, to the point I was pretty much emotionally scarred when suckered into going on the Mindbuster in Canada's Wonderland. However, I am now completely fine with them. In the past, I was not afraid of the dark. In fact, I would close the blinds, draw down the curtains, make my room completely pitch black before I go to sleep. I find that now I'm developing a slight fear for the dark. Although I still had a nasty fear of heights, upon looking down from tall places, I imagine what it would feel if I was to plummet towards the earth.

Random fun dream I had the other day. I was flying again. This time it was a heck of a lot easier than in my lucid dream. The method of flying is similar to being in 0g environment, and all I had to do is push off from the ground towards a wall, and I'd float to that place. Now isn't this interesting that I can imagine myself in an environment in which I have never been in, and be quite certain that if I was in that environment, it would feel exactly the same way as in my dream?

Mom's back from Taiwan. Just found out recently that 4 out of 6 of my biological aunts from my mom's side is currently battling cancer, as well as several of my cousins, also from my mom's side. It sucks. I wish the best of health and quick and successful recovery for all of them. But all in all, I'm just glad my mom is one of the lucky ones without cancer. Hope it stays that way for many many years to come. Hope also that I won't develop cancer myself, and will live a very very long time.

Been reading lots of novels. In the past couple of weeks, read Ender's Game, Speaker of the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind (all 4 books are from 1 series), and The Looking Glass Wars. Onwards to read Children of Men next.

Been working on my novel as well. Hope to upload the next chapter in a couple of weeks. For those who were wondering where the violcence went for the last chapter, well, there's a healthy amount of that in the upcoming chapter.

I want to polish my archery skills.

I was pretty dismayed to learn that Blogger had been bought by Google, even though I rarely use either. Still, I hate to see corporate cutthroat-ism tainting every fucking form of media there is.

I dream often about flying. It's usually more the hover-sort of flying you described. Interestingly, if I begin to get too high from the ground, I get scared and try to dive further down. I like to analyze this bit.
