63523

i suppose this XBW is making me fat, because i have no time nor energy to exercise at all, after all the long days outfield. but a warm chocolate cake and a new york cheesecake from bakerzin catalyses everything.

i think the live firing is - at the heart of it - a display of power. it represents a fundamental need to show off, to satisfy the male ego. but all in all, very exciting, very impressive. (the spectators just don't know what or how much work the whole show was built on.)

this week contained some very gentle rains, which cooped us up in the vehicle for quite some time. i slept, i dreamt, dreamt of running out of a wedding into gentle rains. the gentle rains also made the ground muddy, and to throw track on muddy ground is so very undesirable. not being able to help during the break track and assembly process is also very distressing.

this week has also been about missed opportunities. a rehearsal dragged late into the evening stopped me from getting to meet guohao. people have also been playing their music everywhere, including over the CVC: listening to 周杰伦 reminded me of weijie singing all those songs; and there was that 他不会是个好男人,也不会是个好情人 song that annjiat always kept singing.

somehow i'm beginning to lead this midnight office life, where i get down to real admin work only at night, and sometimes dragging into unearthly hours. just yesterday when we came back and were washing vehicles/cleaning arms, i had to go and do up an orbat chart at 330am.

and a surprising find: when i was shaking the oil off the dipsticks onto a wet road (from the gentle rains), i watched the droplets form rainbow spots all over. it was quite pretty, the way they blossomed.

i realised that maybe a very pretty, crescent, smiling moon may not be that rare after all, given that i've seen it a few times now. maybe i just didn't notice them in the past, which i very ironic in some way. it's like tom na h-iu all over again, if anyone remembers what tom na h-iu is. i guess now i get more time to look at a night sky.

i think i'm finally getting this blog back to the way it should be: more reflections, less food. now, will you explain 不能说的秘密 to me?

today, i proved de moivre's theorem by induction. on another note, look at this,

and tell me: what do you think the 'grey stuff' is? i think it's 芋泥.
