phil said in his xanga that his blog is not the place where he writes what happened this day and what he said to her. well, my blog is just that. just for intro purposes. haha.
this week, i've gone back to my thesis. i'm also back to enjoying it. i'll be shopping for syringes after this because i'm wondering whether the surface area of the electrode has any effect on its biosensing powers. also, i've realized that i must put extra love, care and caution in preparing these electrodes for much is at stake in their construction. put the tissue too near the surface and it would compromise the stability of the whole thing, put it too far back and its effect would be negligible. currently, i'm still working on constructing the best electrode. should accomplish that soon. and i'm blogging about my thesis, yes. it's a step towards progress and so should be documented. anyway, i'm still not a geek. whenever i wait for cv's results, i play minesweeper!
also, for this week, i've returned to reading jane austen's emma. most noticeable thing, the way people during those times put importance in social status. rich people and poor people are expected to have different forms of enjoyment, activities, and companions. they're all about who your with and what you do. and the rich people including the heroine seemed so carefree. all they care about is getting together and chatting about music, books and the sort. to be fair, there was one time where she spent time with the poor, answering their needs in every area. but still. it appeared more like a moral obligation than something from the heart. i am not liking emma's character, obviously. she's the most atribidang heroine that i've read about so far. oh well, there's still a lot of pages left. i'm guessing character development will appear sooner or later through the wisdom of Mr. Knightley, the hero. they'll get married in the end. i've read the last page. on the lighter side, i'm getting a lot of quotable quotes. old english is love.
and never, never could i expect to be so truly beloved and important; so always first and always right in any man's eyes as i am in my father's.
-emma woodhouse to harriet smith, explaining why she doesn't want to marry.
i have a different revelation though. because i have a father here and up above.
and speaking of returns, i'm also watching prosecutor princess reruns. lawyer seo in woo. need i explain any further? though i am not in complete agreement with his fashion statement, i don't disagree with it as well. only in his case because it suits him. the shades are magical. *sigh* i would love to continue with an explanation of why i like that drama so much so as not to appear petty. but then that would be hypocrisy. haha. the major reason is lawyer. major meaning 75%. the rest are just excuses. it is important however to note that i love the character, not the person playing the character. i don't even know who he is in real life. haha.
the next thing i'm about to write about is not a return but a new thing. i've cleaned our house. and i am cleaning our house. one of my latest goals is to buy a mop. i want to get every corner of our house scrubbed. i'd surely be posting about that soon.
so there. that's what ive been doing. i came home last night after a long day at the lab. i ate dinner, cleaned our house a bit, prepared for bed and read emma. i thought this was the life i like. but just now i realized, there was no sense of purpose in that life. it's just get up, work and sleep. i enjoyed it but i don't think i will still do if that happens repeatedly for like months. thankfully, it won't. because my life is ever changing and because i have a purpose. so, this is what i am being saved from. that kind of life is blind and lame. there's more than perfect routine and accomplishments. what made that day a happy day is the return of the relationship that i thought was lost. that was vague. let's make it clear. my return to that relationship. yeah. that was it after all.
