Living the title of my blog.

Okay, now that I cannot change the blog title (the damn title is split into two parts, so any efforts in Photoshopping the thing will lead to a major headache), I might as well live the title. Perspectives: This is How I View My Life. With mirror effects. Yay.

I really do not wish this blog to be a very "thoughtful" blog. Okay, lest people think that I'm being intellectually lazy, let's all step back and see that the operative word is "very." Yes, every now and then I'll let an insight or two (aherm, perspectives) get into my blog, but then that's the start and end of it. The last blog had been too focused on the construction of insights that it lost some (if not most) of its spontaneity. Besides, those who really know me know that I'm really quite an insightful guy. Hee. Way to raise my own bench, there.

But despite all these disclaimers, nothing beats the old adage: "I'll just be myself." Seems like a blatant contradiction of what I've said above, because what if being myself is actually being perspective, but I've taken Jean Paul Sartre's philosophy this semester and he's all for absolute freedom and yet at the same time he says that we are in despair because there are things beyond our control so how can we really have absolute hold over our lives if there are things we cannot control?

As to what that has to do in defense of my contradiction, I have no idea. But you can't do anything about it! Wee!

Damn, I missed writing.
