“You can know ten things by learning one”
Japanese Proverb
Comments: >.< This reminds me of what my teacher in week one - analytical depth. Not the easiest skill to master when it comes to research.

“When one creates phantoms for oneself, one puts vampires into the world, and one must nourish these children of a voluntary nightmare with one's blood, one's life, one's intelligence, and one's reason, without ever satisfying them”
Eliphas Levi
Comments:
One of the gms I use to know wanted to do a roleplay about fear. He said that it will be interesting to scare people to death. I don't know... XP He proposed the idea after we finished SW I so I guess I'm not that keen on the concept. Guess I'll see when he finally sets the rp up.
On a different note, have any of you dreamed about climbing up to the tallest floor of your building and jumping down? It's quite liberating. Just that you probably will not sleep long enough to see the impact. A suicide note usually removes all doubts of foul play. Unless this is another CSI episode or something...
*wonders about unusual suicide notes*

Comments:
=D This reminds me of what Amelia said of Qwertel when I first met her. Not exactly in those words.

Nisoku Hokou [Two Breaths Walking/Bipedalism] [Hatsune Miku] Translation from: [click][You can find the romanji version on that site too] 「This is the chronicle of my evolution in a single-page view」 Because I wanted to hold you tight I started walking on my own two feet Because it’s sad being alone Then I’ll live along with you 「Nee Mama, I’m ready to love another person」 “Congratulations” I want to see you Hey, right now, whose breasts are you suckling on just to live? Do you still remember those words? 「Papa, Mama, Nina…」 “My that’s very good of you.” “I gotta go now.” Eh? Wait a minute… Just as I was about to hold you, I felt my foot in the air Without knowing why, I was already hurting you Having been reminded of those words I was going to stab you with a knife and take your life from you 「Then, before that knife strikes, these lips and those lips, let me bring them together」 A kiss between us Just now, you were living by breathing my own breath Our words reduced to stale saliva So from now on, you’ll be the air that I breathe How I really badly wanted to say 「I love you」 I’d rather have that, than be like a tank of compressed air all my life I’ll take in your every word till the day I die Thanks Writer for the heads up ^^ |

“It is one of the commonest of mistakes to consider that the limit of our power of perception is also the limit of all there is to perceive.”
C. W. Leadbeater
Comments:
I've asked Bartho what he considers to be a truly exceptional student. Till now he doesn't have an answer. His reply was that we are all learning. And that each of us are at a different stage. When I pointed out that people probably won't see things the same way. He merely smiled. That was the end of our conversation. Till the next day...
-.-; He gave me a 3D sketch of a cube. And the above quote.
