It is amazing how we are made equally and yet be made different all at the same time. I started my whole contemplative mode when I stumbled upon such genuity. How can we resemble so much like someone of a whole different racial background. From our racial roots and bloodlines, we asians are generally made with less than prominent deepset eyes and very small, slitty eyes with almost orangey yellowish skin. And yet we may look so much or at least resemble someone who is caucasian by race.

Lets take for example myself, it is amazing for one to wonder how I resemble my caucasian cousins in certain facial features when we are of entirely different racial backgrounds. They are a Russio-sino mix. And I am a Sino-malay mix. Despite being of entirely different paternal racial genes (sorry for digressing but suddenly I felt a deja vu-ich sensation), we resemble each other in certain features.

That got me thinking that although we are of different skin colors, we do share certain facial similarities. Of course, lets not talk about the ignorant saying, 'yeah sure, you and him both of you have eyes ears nose mouth and teeth.'

Just some food for thought to pen down.

You know the feeling when the stuff you want doesn't come your way and there is nothing you can do about it? I sure do and listening to Ben Folds don't aleviate the situation. I have this tendency to just throw everything down and leave for abit. It is times like these that I really want to leave for Europe and get away from this harsh reality.

I need to find my yardstick

There is no end to this pursuit in audio perfection.

In a heartbeat, I could have bought the EBs (there goes $395) and the Porta (there goes $500) but I need I guess I've placed my yardstick firmly. And by the grace of God, I really hope that it won't budge. I heard the EBs of gene's rig today and I was spellbound, problem was I wasn't too keen on plunging into my pockets and bring this pandora's box of sorts home. It would probably run amok in my bank account and I'd probably be left penniless again. Think of it, I don't think it's worth to spend close to 900 bucks on something like a pair of earphones and a portable amplifer.

For one, I could do so much with that amount of money. Think of all the clothes I can get and my sunnies. I wouldn't wanna start school with no money at all also, considering the amount of reading materials and all the bullshite thats school related. Been living off my parents for years now, it's high time I cut that noose that's strangling their purses and do some form family contribution for once. Guess I have to limit my stretched arms and dig deep into my own pockets now.

Anyway it's just a pair of earphones. yah right. Just another pair, bah!
