It was a happy birthday :) :)
I'm 23 now!

Two days post-birthday, the Pendpro crew actually attempted to get me (notice the word attempted, suggestive of it being not-so-successful). Thanks for the attempt guys, I really appreciate it. Appreciate the blackforest cake, too :) :) (next time I prefer cheesecake! haha..)
The whole thing was highly reminiscent of the birthday celebration I had in Dunman High Hostel.. I still remembered Erlin mix-texting me about my own birthday cake (she wanted to text Sher, but certain neuronal circuits of hers went haywire at that time).

Moving on to academic affairs,
I am now on the fourth week of Neurobehaviour and Special Sense System (NBSS for short), and boy, didn't it thrill me beyond my wildest expectations! Last year, when I got an overview of the system, I was sure I wouldn't enjoy learning it. It was much too complicated; too many new terms; too many pathways; too many brain areas; too many gyri, sulci, and fissures to remember. It seemed impossible. Now, though, eventhough I still find the whole thing daunting, the learning process is much more enjoyable; the brain is a reflection of self : it portrays who I am or who you are as a person. Damage the brain, damage the person. Change the brain, change the person.

That teaches me that we should always keep an open mind for everything... what seemed dark and gloomy yesterday can suddenly turn bright yellow and sunny, if only we are prepared for that possibility.

Chim. :D

By the way, this "kos-kosan" of mine is really wonderful.. There is actually no connection to the internet for the whole building; but here in my room, I get spillovers from the neighboring Shafayoghurt (a wireless-providing place selling good yoghurt and playing good jazz music, mostly Jamie Cullum), such that every night and day, I can go online!!! Yayee. I am so keeping this room. Haha. Despite its a-bit-leaky ceiling.

I want to learn Corel Draw...
