by the way (haha, goderich solitudism is starting to kick in),
sunday night on the way back to goderich (12:50am), something quite spectacular happened! (just like james and the giant peach). remember one those snows? the ones where it makes a layer of sparkling film on the streets? the snow that was so true to itself that it was not convincing enough. the snow that is so light when you blow on it it flies like dandilions? yup. so 12:50am, they were all laying down on hwy 25. At 12:50am, this sparkling film on the street was undamaged by the tracks of cars. and as the headlight of my car exposes them, these tiny pieces started sparkling like there's no tomorrow! it's like that christmas tree in Eaton Centre that sparkled so magically that nothing else matters. yup, so i become attracted by the crystaled highway.
there, another good thing about living in Goderich, bitches.
currently listening: mad world by gary jules and idioteque by radiohead.
i'm starting My Friend Leonard by James Frey, don't have any expectations, just thought i should start it.
my reading rhythm has been quite aweful lately. Milan Kundera's book was making me very annoyed inside. It is like solving an interesting problem but the problem itself has an unnecesary number of variables and i forgot how to use matrices. it's like a music sea with treasures floating on top of rubber life boats but since the turbulent is high, it is very hard to grab those treasures.
so yes, the rhythm is off which is annoying at times. I was hoping Frey's book would get me going again since his novel tends to be more fast-pasted.
so Kundera is Liszt and Frey is more like Vivaldi.
(I never played a Liszt's piece before but i've seen the piano score and imagined it to be like so.)
Food:
i made green bean soup today. it's very low on the fire. i have 3 pimples on my forehead. and a lot on my cheek bone. what does that mean?
made pasta for dinner, too much meat...oy

First heard this song on TV when commericial for "Gears of War" popped up. One of those beautiful songs. Yes, beautiful is the correct word.
Mad World by Gary Jules (originally by Tears for Fears in Darny Darco soundtrack)
all around me are familiar faces
worn out places
worn out faces
bright and early for the daily races
going no where
going no where
their tears are filling up their glasses
no expression
no expression
hide my head i wanna drown my sorrow
no tomorrow
no tomorrow
and i find i kind of funny
i find it kind of sad
the dreams in which i'm dying are the best i've ever had
i find it hard to tell you
i find it hard to take
when people run in circles its a very very
mad world
mad world
children waiting for the day they feel good
happy birthday
happy birthday
and i feel the way that every child should
sit and listen
sit and listen
went to school and i was very nervous
no one knew me
no one new me
hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
look right through me
look right through me
and i find i kind of funny
i find it kind of sad
the dreams in which i'm dying are the best i've ever had
i find it hard to tell you
i find it hard to take
when people run in circles its a very very
mad world
mad world
enlarging your world
mad world

listening to Radiohead right now on my bed, just put down the book I am currently reading, The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Nesnesitelná lehkost bytí) by Milan Kundera.
i'm starting feel like i can appreciate the words and how they line up together to make me go like, "dang, that's good writing."
and then there's music, "dang, that's good music."
and then there's food, "dang, that's good food."
of course, you can't always have the sweet. for example, i walked out of psych exam saying to myself, "dang, i just failed psych." Not so much that i was sad, but nonetheless. And then the, "dang, i just failed pdeng again."
here's a list of negative Dang's:
-"dang, i got to work late again."
-"dang, i forgot to put the winshield wiper up again."
-"dang, no money."
-"dang, i need this 8hrs of sleep but i'm only getting 7.5." (this is a big dang to me - it makes me very unstable."
here's a list of positive dang's:
-"dang, that's good."
you get the point...(was there really a point? no, there's not)
(now imagine everytime someone or yourself use point in same context as "good point" or "i like to point out" and whoever uses the word would literally use their finger to point. That, would be funny.
radiohead is reeeallly good, can't get enuf of it.
here's some of readiohead's song's effects on me:
-kinda behaves like dopamine or endorphins
-frustration; explosion
--> contradicting eh? winnie says british is a very contradicting nation.
-cry [not as in cry cry, but as in i want to cry out loud (not in a bad way necessary)]
yawn.
nite.

so, it's been ONE WEEK since i moved to goderich.
today's dinner: curry beef stew w/ rice & homemade minestrone soup + 2 apples
almost done reading yet another murakami's book - "south of the border, west of the sun"
note: south of the border is one of Nat King Cole's jazz song back in the 50's (i think ).
On another note, a restaurant must go = Ema-Tei
definitely try their sake as well, it's a rare brand in toronto but sooooo good!
so, a week at volve...
i found the right job =) it took 4 tries and it was worth it! work has been fun even though i'm still getting trained on CAD. volvo is quite the h4xoR!
oy, back to HAJIME IPPO EPISODE 35!
