| Philadelphia: PRR Steam Plant Implosion |
[Nov. 15th, 2009|10:45 am] |
Made the early morning trek up to Philly to see this go down. I got there about an hour before it went down and staked out a spot. I was the first person on the block but even minutes after I got there people began to pour into the streets. I got a better spot for my video camera than even the lady from Controlled Demolition International (the people bringing down the stack) did. She was probably pissed. They did a poor job of giving people a signal when this was going to go down. The news said 7:30. Than the CDI lady said 7:45. It actually went down around 7:47. They usually let off a siren or something when it is about to happen but they didn't do anything. My video camera was acting up about 6 seconds before this happened and thankfully it started filming right at this second. I didn't even have to edit this video at all. It was perfect timing...
While I was waiting I saw something that looked like a giant rat go under this Jeep. Some people and I walked over to take a look. We saw it was an opossum. Later on the opossum walked across the street through the crowd of people and dug under the fence and started walking towards the implosion. I don't think he even made it to the tracks but wherever he was I'm sure he got a rude awakening. |

| PRCP! |
[Nov. 15th, 2009|11:35 pm] |
i have been trying not to complain too much bout the past week, so here's the upside: i'm enjoying every minute of my holidays, meeting up with many people whom i had missed out during school and attachment, and going to sleep every night feeling happy.
anyway, back to planning of my first job, i had been to 3 interviews and gotten 4 offers. things are looking bright now, but it tortures me a lot on which discipline to go. given the right discipline to enter, it really does seem rather interesting and... more self-fulfilling. i had always assumed that i would move on to another aspect of nursing in a few years to come, but let's just concentrate and focus on the present.
which really begets the question, where am i going for my PRCP that's starting next month?
it's the perfect opportunity for me to test the waters in the government sector. two sides of a coin - i have got the chance to stay with my friends, stay in my comfort zone, eat my usual kopitiam, which before now i thought i was going to take, but i'm starting to get itchy fingers and am thinking of applying elsewhere.
how now brown cow?
i hope i receive some random calls tmr. i will be waiting (: |

"If I love you, you can have everything. You can have my time, my devotion, my ass, my money, my family, my dog, my dog's money, my dog's time -- everything. If I love you, I will carry for you all your pain, I will assume for you all your debts (in every definition of the word), I will protect you from your own insecurity, I will project upon you all sorts of good qualities that you have never actually cultivated in yourself and I will buy Christmas presents for your entire family. I will give you the sun and the rain, and if they are not available, I will give you a sun check and a rain check. I will give you all this and more, until I get so exhausted and depleted that the only way I can recover my energy is by becoming infatuated with someone else."
--Elizabeth Gilbert, "Eat, Pray, Love" |

-Rant
Doing my thesis... I can't remember what I dreamt last night but I get the feeling now I dreamt of somebody telling me how to do my thesis... weird. Yesterday my arm felt like it was made of rotten wood, I felt like the body of a vegetarian zombie floating in a sleepy towns creek. Today i woke up and everything felt better. I feel like things are turning, like i'm learning and soon all the clouds will be leaving. XX☼ |

My photos folders for October and November are depressingly empty, it is 4.12 am and I am wide awake. Sunday will be the day I hope to finish my work but fail in my attempt. My two new favourite movies are Lars and the Real Girl, and When Harry Met Sally. Watch them! 27 hours ago I had a spontaneous supper with Laurie ( h a p p y b i r t h d a y ! ) and Willy spent talking about movies and books .. "you know what my fondest memory of sonia is? we were talking about books we've read and I asked, 'have you read to kill a mockingbird?' and she reaches over to her bag and pulls it out." December 8 is the day I get to catch up on my reading!

why not merely the despaired of
occasion of
wordshed
is it not better abort than be barren
the hours after you are gone are so leaden
they will always start dragging too soon
the grapples clawing blindly the bed of want
bringing up the bones the old loves
sockets filled once with eyes like yours
all always is it better too soon than never
the black want splashing their faces
saying again nine days never floated the loved
nor nine months
nor nine lives
2
saying again
if you do not teach me I shall not learn
saying again there is a last
even of last times
last times of begging
last times of loving
of knowing not knowing pretending
a last even of last times of saying
if you do not love me I shall not be loved
if I do not love you I shall not love
the churn of stale words in the heart again
love love love thud of the old plunger
pestling the unalterable
whey of words
terrified again
of not loving
of loving and not you
of being loved and not by you
of knowing not knowing pretending
pretending
I and all the others that will love you
if they love you
3
unless they love you |
