[monumentum]

So I'll just start off with some rambling. Yea it's just a delusion that someone might read this so hell, am I gonna rant my mind out.
Just as I'm typing now that it suddenly occurred to me for the billionth time, the question of why people always use "I'll rant my heart out.." & stuff relating to the 'heart'.So yea, why is 'love' even represented by a symbol closely resembling the organ which sole purpose is to drive blood around the body. Not sure if that's really the case, but am quite sure that the heart thing does not control mechanisms that would regulate desire or such. Is that just a way of looking sophisticated or something? Seriously, I DONT find it in any way appealing, & worse still it can be misleading to little children. Scientifically, how does drawing the shape of the heart indicate that you guys love mummy & daddy? Like WTF...? Why is it not the brain instead? Is the brain a less pleasant object to depict artistically? Children, do you know that complete loss of brain function means you're a goner, but for the heart this is not the case? Yea, the question is bothering me.. Perhaps I should juz google it instead of wasting time here.
So i hv to blog in order to get my mind off a fucked up today & the day before. I screwed. All the way. Upside down. Whatever possible ways in which one can be devastated, BADLY - I did.
Discovered another therapeutic pastime - photo-editing. It perks up the aesthetic senses & does not take that much effort compared to any other forms of art-making.
Cos Im downright regretting my actions already for not preparing properly. Speaking of anything related to damn art isn't of much help to the soul now.

Either way one thing is still certain, that this effect wouldn't last till the next exam. In any case I'd still repeat it like this has never happened. Someone discipline me! -.-||| Sounds.. SM. Gosh. It's ok as long as... Day #26 - In Hue (25-May-2010)

It's probably quite a short post unless it's wordy. Cos I've only got 7 photos. It was chilling day, since the night included a domestic flight back to HCMC. Today's largely by foot, yea. Thru the photographs it's probably quite evident that the places covered aren't that wide a range.

Emo-ing is probably getting to me. Feeling unusually 'introspective', if I can even call it that. So I shan't be talking lots. ”实话说了太多就成真不了“. It really sucks like hell to reveal too much. Just look at the photos, will you? If there's even a 'you' to start with. Perhaps maybe posthumously on my part. People always start cherishing one who's dead.

(Top & bottom photos). Just 2 similar ones I found. Then it got me really thinking about how digital photography has actually "devalued" or "cheapened" photographs.. The act of deleting photos is so simple, yet it's probably acceptable to say that hardly any 2 photographs are ever exactly the same.. Actually nth much, juz means that the scene would've been lost forever in the act of pressing the 'delete' button. Another thing against the spam-snap culture. & on the flipside there're those HOARDERS. Find 'hoards' of them on facebook. They upload like 4 or 5 photos of the same take & really it feels like they're telling you sth like "I dare you! Spot the diff!" Are they simply indecisive or what?
Gosh yea I know 1stly, I'm contradicting myself. 2ndly, I've got the choice of not surfing facebk if i dont want to.

Anyway that's Hue & its awesomeness. (:

Planned so well. One more day to document for this trip to go & I'm done. Another short road trip in a wk's time aft exam. Destination: Malaysia (:
then Vietnam.. & hopefully Tibet next year! Hate to plan too far. But planning is the key to successful trips, isn't it?
