Skyline Faded Blue
fifty years have ridden off into the sunset
Quote of the Moment
I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of
  the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way
  I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while
  I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will
There and Back Again
2:53 AM, Wednesday, August 27, 2003

I'm getting so tired of PHP. And I haven't even done that much work with it since writing that bloody mail script. I need a way to learn by osmosis or something.

In other news, getting ready for uni again. I'm not sure I'm ready for this. Seems like life's gone by so fast since I started a year ago. Am looking forward to getting back together with friends and acquaintances however. Given my inability to hold a coherent thought and write about it, perhaps a change of scenery will be good for me.

On the other hand, getting up at 8am four days a week will not be good for me. I think I'm going to die before the semester is out. Either that, or I'll be hoping that my classes in that slot are easy and I don't need to attend the lectures. I had enough trouble getting up for my 9:50s last semester.

Packing is getting to me. Life is getting to me. Lack of inspiration is getting to me. Web programming is getting to me. I need a revolver and five bullets.

Open query for readers, in a blatant attempt to get my synapses firing again: Some describe the human condition as the summary of our experiences. Others say that we are more than this; that there is some part of us which remains inviolate, proof through the most traumatic -- or rapturous -- of experiences.

Person A says that a pessimist is such because his or her life has taught him to be; Person B says that a pessimist will always be a pessimist, even if he or she is the luckiest person in the world (this is the "The hurricane is going to miss my house? Hah, it'll change course and go right through my most expensive china." sort of person).

So, A or B? Does life define us, or does our outlook define life?
