The Perpetual Struggle!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
10 years ago, after passing the french national selection math/phys/chem exam, I thought back then that my life will soon be stable and take a normal course. 10 years after I find myself still struggling to find my place in the real world. When will this perpetual struggle end? I kept on telling myself as […]

Relieved!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I officially and publicly announced my departure date: March 31 2008. I was very happy today when I stopped in the middle of the fast lane for my last swim lap. As the drops coming from the morning rain felt on my face, I enjoyed few seconds of peace and joy: I was indeed relieved!

Return to Springbrook!

Such a pleasure to swim in a fresh river in a tropical forest. I do not know any better things to do right there. My poor fellow hikers are too picky about how they look to be natural.

My Golden Cage!
Filed Under Daily | 4 Comments
After March 31 2008, my life will be taking a new direction. I will leave my pseudo comfort zone, my “golden cage”, for an unknown new path. Every time my life has changed dramatically, it’s always been for a better way of life. I am hoping it will continue. I came to like Brisbane as […]

Strange night!

I went to bed at 7:30 pm, woke up around 11:50 pm and could not resume my beauty sleep until 1 am. I am tired! I had a bit of a hang-over because I finished the sparkling wine bottle all by myself. I believe it disrupted my sleep. Note-to-self: do not get DRUNK at any […]

The high and the low of photography
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
The vacation’s photos were so beautiful with a perfect background and a perfect light making it hard for me to get comparable picture quality. Besides it was raining all week long and everything looked so miserable last week. It kind of killed my hobby of the moment for a bit. Also coming back to work […]

“I am Legend”
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I went to see this movie today. I thought it was some kind of “Mad Max” remake or a sci-fiction type of movie but it was in reality a horror movie. It is quite good at keeping your attention all along but I was very disappointed in the end. No real story and not many […]

Back to work!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
Lots of things to do today. Before leaving for vacation, I had some unfinished work such as reinstalling programs on my new computer and backing up my data. I had to redo all these things quickly. Swimming was great! I got back in shape quickly! No real effort today to maintain a high speed with […]

A naked man walked around the complex apartment next to mine. It was ugly and awkward. Did he loose a bet on this first day of the year or was it a strange new year resolution? Who knows…! I know where he lives and what he looks like. I hope it won’t happen again. Today […]
