a sort of update

it's a brand new year, and chinese new year --- also called the "spring festival, in case you weren't aware --- is happening in two days. i don't know about you, but the new year seems to be moving in a strangely different way. it even seems to smell different.

i'll be heading down to the capital later today, and should be back on tuesday or wednesday. i plan to get another be@rbrick when i'm there. maybe a couple of books. finnegan's wake, quite likely, and another by my sifu, marshall mcluhan.

i'm also looking forward to seeing my singaporean friends josh and mey, who recently got married.

after this one-week holiday, it's back to work people, and that means teaching for me and learning for you, so make the best out of these seven days, and try not to overeat! and do something that i wouldn't do!
