The topic of holes has come up a lot recently. M brought it up to me first, in saying that a good thesis should have a certain amount of holes, in that someone had been exploring their interest and in the process discovering a series of questions, they left holes(questions) that have yet to beContinue reading “HOLES”

MANUAL
I have a big problem with the tap to pause feature on the SONY XM4 headphones as I feel like it is designed without consideration of the speaker. It’s all fine that the listener can hear the speaker fine (still slightly muffled though) but to the speaker all they see is someone wearing headphones. SpeakingContinue reading “MANUAL”
OUT OF NECESSITY
To do something because it is necessary. I was watching a video analysis of the avatar, of Katara’s character development. It talked about her being a mother figure out of necessity as her mother died, and how she had to fill in for her in a way as her brother Sokka was a bit ofContinue reading “OUT OF NECESSITY”
TOLERANCE
Not a proper post today. I guess today is more of reflection of my past work. I feel like I am always making the same mistake somehow. I keep getting feedback that my work is too small, I think it is a sign of dishonesty, if I am honest about my work then I wouldContinue reading “TOLERANCE”
CALM AND COLLECTED
No external (visual) things to collect today, so I thought I’d organise some of the topics that I’ve been wanting to write about so I can use this post as a reference in the future. I mean just look at that. What a waste of digital paper. I feel like this is the equivalent ofContinue reading “CALM AND COLLECTED”
OVERLAP
I tend to approach things all in one big mass. Something that gives me a lot of peace when faced with chaos is actually something I learned while constipated.. hear me out. While enduring some intense bowel pain and sweating for about a good half an hour, it suddenly occurred to me to look upContinue reading “OVERLAP”
BUILD IN PARTS
The first post with the red text talks about cultivation. And that the optimal person is not someone who is good in all areas, but knows how to delegate. They cultivate their areas of strength. A slight divergence- if I may- I have a friend who I very much admire. I value people that valueContinue reading “BUILD IN PARTS”
MORE OR LESS
So I have promptly abandoned my attempts at “typing good” since thesis got heavy and GRE prep started messing with me. I think my initial plan just fell apart because my rules were too strict.. and the thought of having to “craft” something for each post was a bit too much effort to maintain. Regardless.Continue reading “MORE OR LESS”
BACK SPACE
Isn’t the backspace function so liberating. Words disappear just like that and you get to start again. So much of my life is plagued by the wish that I could have a do-over – if only I did xyz instead I would have been able to realise my potential and everyone would have seen howContinue reading “BACK SPACE”
SPEEDING
Actually one thing I started noticing about typing is how I rely on the computer to complete words for me, and have the habit of pausing, or not correcting my words faster than I could, almost waiting for the program to correct it. This is actually one reason why I haven’t properly utilised Shift, sinceContinue reading “SPEEDING”
