Link: Creative minds: the links between mental... →
According to new research, psychosis could be the answer. Creative minds in all kinds of areas, from science to poetry, and mathematics to humour, may have traits associated with psychosis. Such traits may allow the unusual and sometimes bizarre thought processes associated with mental illness to fuel creativity.
we CAN do it!

i have had a sudden surge of inspiration. an added ambition to the list, a defined path i want to travel. i am excited, scared, and worried like i have always been with many things, but i am ready. ready as i ever will be (as they say).
i’ve been sitting in front of this monitor researching on it, wasting thursday away. please (thinks to herself) let it be…

what are you thinking? (inspired from twitter) waiting for pizza while thinking about deadlines. how it’s cold and what time abel will come home from his driving lesson. reflecting on my age and how i will die a useless death.

domesticated
today he left to go to school and i texted asking when he will be finishing so he can come back home. not the response i wanted. i begged him to skip school and just come back home. ofcourse i am not going to get my way.
these days if i’m not at work, i’m at school and if i’m not in either of those places, i’d rather be at home, with him. hanging out, watching movies,...

it’s my baboys 3rd birthday today.
push on.
tonight i have work till 11pm. school at 6am tomorrow then work till 11pm again, then school at 6am again the following day. of course this is self inflicted as these are my choices, like a lot of things in my life. so i have no right to depend on others to make things easier for me, yes even if i cannot stand upright anymore.
you’ll know when i’m trying to push on when i am singing...

religion feature.
today my fasting for lent is suppose to end, but since i accidently ate duck the other night i will repent (out of excitement and hunger) and extend for a couple of days. it seems like every jack and jill i know have turned into nihilists, raised to be catholics but chose to be atheists probably out of despite for their parents preaching words of god, in a manner that one could could identify as,...

Climbing Mount Everest in Tibet, To explore the Templo Mayor in Mexico City, Trek along the Amazon River, Encounter a Great White Shark in the pacifics, To fly over the Bermuda Triangle, Take photographs of the Emperor Penguins in...
K.B
We were asked to design our initials into a logo type using Illustrator. If you can’t tell, mine are K.B. Though they are amateur and flat in design, I would like to confess I did put some thought in these. Personal fave is the last one, serif/san serif.
very much.
misses her baboy.
Liberty leading the People
saturday came. media reviews i ignored. heightened, too heightened? perhaps, i don’t know. personally i believe that coldplay has grown out of touch, a now seeming conjunction to the bands name. cold play. sure their concert was aesthetically entertaining, pretty in short- but music wise? it was very disappointing, it’s as if i was listening to their album on very good speakers,...
Karl Marx
Yesterday as I was walking home from class, on the footpath familiar words written with red chalk echoed the political notions of Karl Marx. Communism, rid of Capitalism and Feudalism, the Bourgeois, the very familiar words of “Stand up for your rights” and so on. Reminds me of my old college days, there were no activists to be seen however chanting and holding placards, banners as of...
