I learnt how to subtract and regroup using magnetic numbers on a baking sheet.

1970s hippie education.

It was this month 27 years ago that I discovered that my favourite band is actually The Kinks and not The Beatles.

I used to draw a cartoon guy named Irving. On everything. Everywhere. Always.

Whistling irrationally, inexplicably irritates me the instant I hear it (and actually, all those words starting with i were just the first ones to come to mind, I didn’t do it on purpose).

I went camping at a lake with my class for a week when I was in Grade 7.

I wanted to be Julie McCoy on The Love Boat, when I grew up.

As a child... It was as if I was driven to be as independent as possible; whether I truly can or not, I simply believe I must.

I do not know why exactly. It's not that my parents tried to raise me that way.
Except that I do not trust others enough to rely on anyone or that I'm prideful to the core.


In essence, perhaps I just that really do not trust my parents growing up. And I still do.
I have a lot of memories of my parents not able to understand what I want or that my parents saying no to it.

Then maybe, at a very young age it convinced me that... I just had to do whatever I wanted myself.

Maybe this is quite why I'm an ungrateful bastard myself. :lol:
Every after little and big things, I'm still in doubt. Still anticipating to further disappointment.
Still demanding or looking for more and yet never given them a benefit of a doubt.


I understand how or why my parents are negligent in this area.
But deep down somewhere, I've been very resentful and sought otherwise.

I can have pleasant feelings when I see Gatomon (a Digimon) or Pikachu (a Pokemon). These "monsters" looks "really nice" for me.

My mentality is for the ban of eating and selling pig meat for food because it thinks that Quran "may be" of divine origin because of anstonishing number of intriguing "coincidences" associated with its original text (and the Quran says that swineflesh is forbidden for eating, at least by almost all Muslims). I am a Catholic but I have thoughts about converting to a Quran-based religion because "synchronicities" associated with Quran are "unconceivable".

I have an "obsession" about phenomenon of "coincidences" which can be also named "synchronicities".
I may have thoughts that "coincidences" are key to the mysteries of existence.
I might have a thought that very numerous and unbelievable "coincidences" prove that Quran is God's Word.

I am interesting what Christians would say about mathematical and linguistic dependencies associated with the original text of the Quran.

If life were graded, I’d get Fs all around.

I've done 5 different jobs in my life. The bank job was the best and blue bin recycling was the worst. I hated going into that bottle depot, day after day.

Covid had heightened my anxiety and the depression is kicking in. When the depression comes, it's bye bye appetite. I hope that I'll get to visit my parents before my mum dies. She's not in the hospital or anything like that. It's just that her health isn't very good. She has diabetes, high blood pressure and heart problems. She's also overweight. Also, I'm not the best at staying home, especially when the sun is out.

Neither do I. Or Harry Potter.
