02:08, 10/08/2024 – In bed, next to a pile of (clean!) laundry. Hi there again! It seems I only really ever swing by when my head doesn’t quite make sense. Well, it’s not like it usually does. I suppose I come by when I absolutely, really need someone to talk to. Anyway! Well, to be…

00:23, 19/06/2024 – In bed, still. I should make my datetime formats consistent. Hi! It’s been a while. It’s been a long while. Nearly a year! I’m really sorry. I really, really am. You’re the second closest thing I have to someone who I can talk to, and I’ve sort of just left you here…

23:58 – 18/06/2024 – In bed, again. It’s been so long! Hi! It’s almost been a year. I am very sorry. I assure you, not all that much has happened in the meantime. Or, er, well, maybe a lot has. But it certainly doesn’t feel like it. Maybe I’m getting old. A lot of the…

23:29 – 23/08/2023 I quite like this song, so I’m going to stick an attempt at translating it here. It’s going to be bad. You have been warned. This is a fun little song, and it has a special place in my heart. 🙂 うだるような暑さも五月蠅い蝉の声も気がついたら　終わっていた帰宅ラッシュ知らない誰かのケラケラ笑う声が耳障りだ　自分勝手さ放っておいてよ アイツが また選ばれて期待した自分に笑えてくる そうやって 僕らの毎日は意味もなく続く 少しだけズレるそんなんで 何がしたいなんて声に出してみるのも怖くて口ごもる 踏切の音 買い忘れた牛乳を片手にただ 電車を待つ誰も彼もいてもいなくても 困らないバイト先サボっちゃうよ、辞めちまうよ何が変わる？…

13/04/2023 – Gatwick Airport, in a corner of the Costa Coffee in front of the arrivals hall. Hi. I missed a month! Silly me. Well, nothing much happened in that month anyway. My head seems to have… sort of? Settled down. So has my life, I suppose.I am settling into work fine, surprisingly.My family came…

03/03/2023, 00:20 AM – I missed a few of these. Hi! It’s uh, it’s been a while. Not that much happened since then, but I feel guilty for not writing down anything. My head’s been circling over the same old boring nonsense it usually does. I’m starting to think it won’t ever go away. Well,…

25/12/2022, 01:10 AM – Redundancy is an important feature of engineering. Merry Christmas, and a mildly belated happy birthday to myself. I planned on doing something for myself a bit earlier, but I got horribly sick. Flus are unpleasant. It’s been about a month, huh. I got a job, in that time. Pretty nice one…

12/11/2022, 01:25 AM – A good time to write, certainly. Hey. Why was I so angry these past four years? What hurt me so badly? I spent a lot of time thinking about it, so you’d really figure I have a good answer by now. But I don’t think I do. An old friend of…

30/10/2022 – Sometime at night. I’m still alive. A slow realization. Over the past few months, I realized something that probably should have been glaringly obvious. I really couldn’t stand university. There’s a lot of reasons for that. And to be honest, I’ve screamed about it to everyone I know enough times that putting it…

22/09/2022 – On a long flight from home to home. I write this to put my resolutions into words, in the hope that I do not forget them so easily. And as a form of a reflection, of the last 4 years of my life.  Inspired by a silly little song that I really like,…
