"I found you!" - Gollum


I like things that are free and useful.
  1. justhearit - "allows user to search for any song in the world." Sounds too good to be true. I did not wait for the flash site to load. So if you tried it tell me what you think.
  2. searchme - Visual and intuitive search engine. Main page loaded fast. I have to branch out from Google.
  3. An argument stemming from music searches - I Can't Stop Thinking! #6: delves into the micro-payment concept by discussing the record and radio industry hold on musicians.
  4. The satirical (non)deities Flying Spaghetti Monster or the Invisible Pink Unicorn.
  5. List of a dozen castles - It says those are the most beautiful in Europe. A good list to tick off! Number three, Miramare Castle in Trieste, Italy would be higher up on my list. Maybe it was not as showy as the others.
  6. Tools for writing - Someone rattles off fifty tips here. To prevent mistakes I should not write at all.
  7. The best things in life are free. On the other hand, saffron costs US$1,100 to 11,000 per kg. Other delicacies can be found in this Wacky Archives article.


Happy Chinese New Year

Yes that's right. It's that time of the year again. This year will be the year of the ox, which means I am turning 24.

End of the Working Weekend

I got a move on with my project as the due date is February 9th. It is suddenly gaining momentum. I am looking forward to handing everything in. Come what may.

Linda and Richard are off to Taupo today. Maiqing and Gogo should be returning from their holiday up Northland. I don't feel bad staying inside.

I ate sweet corn today (munch munch)

I Dream of...

My grandpa's birthday and a cousin's wedding was yesterday. I could not be there but I dreamed of the whole whanau! My younger cousins appeared as kids in my dreams. The youngest are senior high school students these days.

Grandpa sat by himself at a distance. A series of aunties came and went talking to me. I did not see the cousin that got married though. Maybe he was too busy.

I have been missing my relatives in Taiwan.


Plans

My new year activities involved a lot of reading
  • Best of Friends
  • The Hamilton Case
  • Saturnalia
Now I have to finish off the project.
