Recent Observations

Note to self: You have hair on your (metacarpal) fingers.

Humans blindly follow others. This morning i was waiting at the intersection of Castlereigh and Market St. The pedestrian lights were red, cars were streaming thru. There was a questionable gap that would have allowed JUST enough time to dawdle safetly across. Fellow pedestrians who were waiting on the kerb did so, and those behind that were either chatting away or had just arrived at the kerb followed suit... Four lucky pedestrians were saved by those who were paying attention to the traffic. I hadn't witnessed someone oh so close to a moving car up until that moment.

Investments. Results do not always come instantly. I'd come to the conclusion that if one was to invest (their time/money/effort), results ensued linearly. With my chinese studies, i've just started to see miniscule benifits of my studies. That is, 7 weeks in.

Mum is always right. I must learn to concede my stance with mum quicker and more frequently.
