The Weird things i ponder over.
While creating the new blog header, I looked through the many photos i have accumulated from past escapades in Singapore and mostly in Europe. And i finally found out the name of the delicious czech pastry! It's trdlo!
It helps that a very pretty young lady is making and selling the trdlo. Freshly baked. Absolute heaven to taste! :)) Buttery on the inside, sugary on the outside with cinnamon sugar and almonds. Yumyum!
Brings me to the point that i miss having cold weathers where i can don different sorts of headgears.
The hoodie cap for beltane fire festival on Calton Hill.Fur caps on bomber jacket (think J Lo or whoever who wears this in MTV) for a valentine's day dinner at wetherspoons.
Crochet caps at the zoo with the red raccoon.
And even crochet berets in the airport. :)) Mum bought this beret and scarf for me. Cool eh? I lurve it. :)
Don't look that bad right? But i'd melt if i were to wear them here. They make me miss my long hair. Sigh.
My Many Random Thoughts... again.
What my grad trip like? Is there even gonna be one? How much do I have to save? I really liked my bali trip. Maybe it's the company ;) and plus it's cheap. The next time I'm gonna get a villa though. :)
I think the amount of notes i always have to absorb and assimilate into my brain in school has killed my interest in books. Give me a good novel and I would give you my attention. This brings me to the point that i have never really liked self-help books. As a psychology student, I love to analyse,infer, preach. This sorta explains my choice of career for those who know me. So self-help books are like me preaching to myself or my mother nagging at me kinda thing.
They usually contain information i already know but tend not to see it which can be quite helpful but as a kid in this animation generation, I prefer having someone giving me personal advices. Self-help books are supposed to help everyone across the spectrum of a particular kind. It's like asking all talented people to a school for talents and there's just one mentor who asks all the kids to think about what they like most and does best in, and then instructs them to practice that some skill everyday, hoping one day they might learn something new from what they already know.
I prefer having different mentors for different talents so that the teacher can at least provide some guidance. I don't even need the mentor to be skilled in the particular talent that i have, i just need the mentor to tell me how she gained new insights to her own talents and then look at what i have to offer and advice me on what are the different possibilities i could achieve. And what she says to me would be different from what she says to another talent because we're essentially different people.
All in all, SHB are not bad, they're just too general and too impersonalised. Feels like a fortune teller telling me about the war I am involved in - "There will be bloodbath and there will be one victor while the other will perish".
Psst, the big bang about the 2 girls in blogosphere is really an entertaining read. Who knows, it may just be another publicity stunt? :)) But the girls they talk about are really hawwwttt! :))
and so she ponders, wishes & scribbles
