From that creepy daily quote service I subscribe to...

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."

Ni hao! I'm taking Chinese I from Jan-Mar, and then Chinese II from Mar-Jun. Yay!

So I suddenly decided that I like the pink and purple. I'm not really sure when liking pink and purple exactly happened. But I like the arrows. Especially the vertical ones on the right, which are a beautiful example of primitive computer graphics. The whole thing generally reminds me of being between the ages of 10-12. This is just one of the ways that I'm regressing into childhood. Others include: playing with stuffed animals, dating Ming-Jay, learning a new language from scratch, drinking soda (and rotting my twice-braced teeth), and in the hopefully near future getting a pet rabbit.

edit: the pink and purple at the time referred to the blog design template.

okay, maybe I will use this thing
