About Me

To know me is to know that this is not what I intend to show.

Dipping Inks

For most of this year, I have simply gotten tired of writing - be it office reports, research papers, even personal organizers and post it notes. I do not know why writing suddenly became such a tiring task. I did not blog because there was nothing to write about. But looking back, this year has actually been an eventful one.

Did I unconsciously opt for the ultimate silence? Have I finally drowned and lost the madness?

I remember F.Scott Fitzgerald's famous line:

"All good writing is like swimming underwater and holding your breath."

Perhaps I should try writing without drowning myself...be it in ink, emotions, or lack thereof.


With this realization, I am changing the blog's title to SETTLING SCORES - a more neutral and reconciliatory tone - from the former title Mad Living.
It will still be ala-mad living style, but it's the kind that, hopefully, always settles scores in the end.
