Besides, I've already paid for my first month of web hosting, not to mention my first year of domain ownership, so there's no turning back (just the way I like it).Thankfully, I took a computer subject back in pre-uni and a web publishing/Internet subject during my third year of university. I dropped out of the former in my final term but actually went on to score quite respectably in...

The problem with being left alone too much however, is that I become itchy-fingered and impulsive. That sounds a little like I decided to go shoplifting, but I actually ended up getting this instead: www.sophiagoh.com Don't worry, I paid for it. And it wasn't really all that impulsive. I put in quite a few hours of research before settling on a domain host. And I've always kinda wanted my own domain, even though I know squat about all this...

This niggling feeling began last night before bed, and continued into the morn. I'm usually one to trust my instincts, so if my gut tells me something's out of whack, something probably is. The perhaps slightly worrying thing is how easily I buried the feeling as soon as I got to work. Having to, or rather getting to, focus on my checklist for the day made it all too easy to brush aside any niggles in the cosmos. At least I took two seconds to shelve it under 'thoughts' for blogging...

The weather held up - it was perfect actually, I was relieved to find that I still have a stroke, and we had a good two hours of play. It felt good to be out and active again; the last time I did something outdoors that resembled exercise was when I went walking in the rain in Mulu, Sarawak, over a month ago. The urge to get off my bum and start moving on a regular basis has made a somewhat...

On hindsight, it wasn't entirely incomprehensible, simply inconceivable. http://skyscrapers.blogdrive.com/comments?id=649 http://skyscrapers.blogdrive.com/archive/648.html Wed, 21 May 2008 16:44:49 GMT If our eyes are truly the windows to our souls, sometimes I wonder how much my eyes give away. While I believe in not lying, or trying my best not to, there are times when the urge to smile and nod in expected approval and support far outweigh the desire to speak my objecting mind, if only because the former is the much easier way out. We all have to pick our battles, right? During times when I really need my eyes not to reveal too much, times when I'm panicked, or feeling really awkward or mortified, times when I want to keep my emotions under wraps... do I really give away as much as I fear...

That's Chinese school for you, not that I regret it now that it's been almost nine years since emancipation.Reta and I are trying to feed Dawn a fry and a soft drink in her absence. http://skyscrapers.blogdrive.com/comments?id=647
