375 hee jae is sitting next to me

so i forgot to blog this but last sunday...the 17th of october, i went to chinatown to go to cemc and ate at a chinese restaurant. anyways, to be a boring story short, when we left the restuarant, we were walking and a HEAVY squarish metal sign 12 x 12 inches fell to the floor RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. Literally, if i took another step, i would've gotten hit and seriously injured on the head. it made a huge noise and the owner of the store came out. it was quite an interesting experience but i never thought much about it.

yesterday, went to Local Church near Penn Station. it was really uncomfortable at the beginning but really really good. one guy told me how the idea of their services is to imitate the church in Acts where every member contributes to the body. Any member is given the opportunity to speak and praise in the middle of service and we all learn from each other. Their praise were hymns and they used them as prayers. It was very multi-cultural. Crazy cool experience. Great sharings as well.

225 oktapodi; people these days makes some seriously sick animations and storyline

Aesthetika. we talk design as if it were something purely visual. yet, that is only one-fifth of the total. people tend to identify items so strongly as if it were part of them, almost to the degree where the items identify who they are, their personality or whatnot.

aesthetics is more than sight. it's more than feel. what makes an object lovable and comforting includes the sound it makes, the smell it exhibits, how it tastes. what does a laptop taste like anyways? part of a printer that makes it cool is the sound it makes. no doubt it can get annoying, but there's a comfort factor in there. perhaps it's not intentional when the artist made the design to include that particular inserting paper and sliding ink cartridge noise, but it's nice. without it, it would not be a printer anymore. design is quite an interesting subject, no doubt. i miss my pencil.

204 questions of insanity

it's weird. i have not been reading. i try but i don't. i read every other thing, but not the One.

School's gotten tougher. Quite difficult that i don't wish to write any more about it. Too much mental stress to put into words the terror and worries along with slight excitement yet still worries. What keeps me sane is that I somewhat expected it and know i would've still chosen to take all these classes if I were to go back in time. What keeps me sane is that i do enjoy learning and i believe challenges is what will mold me.

i suppose that was your typical college student entry. i'll try to write something more fascinating next time.
