Life and Desires

Ah well, how quickly time flies...

It has been 2 weeks plus since I last wrote a post here... Just thought of today as being a good time to keep you all up to date as to the stuff that's been happening so far...

Last weekend was when I had spent most of my money on some stuff which I would consider as an interesting investment -- A Psp.

Initially, I was quite happy as I had been saving up for it for quite some time, so I couldn't wait to like play it... I went over from place to get like the cable and stuff for me to be able to connect my psp to my computer, then for me to charge my psp...

But as I soon found out like the next day, it turns out that I would have to wait much longer to play my games....

As I loaded my psp with a .cso and an .iso game and tried to play them, I found out that they could not even be recognised by the psp at all as a valid file in a first place... It seemed very wierd, so I asked my friend, who had initially brought me to the shop to buy the psp, what was going on... He told me to show it to him the next day.

As I did show it to him the next day [Monday this week] , he saw my situation and decided to do some research for me...

As it turns out, my Psp was one of 2 models in which currently there is no possibility of running the *.cso and *.iso files, as it was made of a unique motherboard which makes it unable to be modified to play those files which I have just mentioned...

Thus, as of now, although I may have quite a few games of the type which I had initially hoped to play, now I am totally unable to play any of the games which I thought I could...

Sigh... It is a sad lesson to learn, and yet something we have to go through....

"It is important for us to do adequate planning and research beforehand, to save us the trouble and unfortunate consequnces that we have to face if we do not do enough or sufficient research...

So, we need to always remember that, no matter how well we may think that things are like... to your advantage initially, but as the situation slowly unfolds,what you desire to happen may not be the case, and that life has a different path for you...

Thus, may we come away from this with fresh knowledge of how to avoid this kind of thing from happening again."

The next time I post, I would like to share another incident that happened last week as well...

For now, good morning, and good night.

Week One-- An interesting week, new lessons learnt.

Now is about 2 in the morning, so I guess I'll keep this short and to the point...

Heyo. It's been quite fast, a week, and yet, I've found it to be quite slow during certain intervals. How fascinating the way time travels relative to what you're doing...

Anyways, It's also been not an easy week to pass, given that on the 31st of Jan was the last day of my workshop...

Ah well, some might say that I should just leave it to the past, but to someone like me, I guess I tend to dwell on the past a little bit longer.... Thus currently, you can say that I'm still under what I would classify as: Post-Workshop Depression Syndrome.

It's more like a feeling of emptiness and loss, unsure of what to do to occupy your time.... The thing about it is that you just feel as tho you're stuck in Limbo, not sure what to do; seemingly stuck in the timeframe of the Workshop...

Sigh... I sincerely need to learn to occupy my time with more meaningful and fulfilling stuff...

I should just learn to relax and let things be... Things have always gotten out of hand when I let my emotions take over...

"I have gained more than has been lost, through experiences good and bad. May it be that through all that's said and done, that whatever which is learnt shall be with me, for more than the flickering of a flame in the wind..."

Good morning to all, for now I shall rest...
God bless...

New Year, New Blog.

It's been more than half a year since I last posted a blog post anywhere..

Hmpf.. It's been so long since I've felt the motivation to write anything or blog anything...

Who's to say that I may have been so preocupied with living that I've forgotten everything else?

Mother had once told me that I really need to stop being so preoccupied with the internet and the computer as such, for it would be to the detriment of my health... I guess I should heed her advice soon...

What a way to start a new blog, by first saying a belated Happy New Year and Happy Chinese New Year to everyone... I hope that the past month has been interesting for all of you, as it has been for me....

I guess the best way to start this would be to say that this is not my first blog... And i guess neither will it be my last.. Much has happened over the last few days that I feel that perhaps its time that I put them onto paper, or for this matter, written record.

I will just end this first post by saying,

"Welcome to my new home, for which my thoughts shall find refuge, and I shall find rest when I need to, like the Pensieve which we've always desired, and the Erised that we've all hoped to possess... "

God bless you all,
Daevian.
