Haiku Wednesday: Pillow Talk
Silent hush fall deaf,
Still pillow confide with trust,
Awake after dawn.
+++
The drugs (hush) don’t work, they make me worse – o ye faithless one — who hit the snooze button 3 times today in the morning.
Alright, I’m still a non-believer of the secret sect of pillow-hush-alarm.
Maybe the older secret sect of pillow-talk-alarm works better, then again the idea is to get awake on time not to get asleep promptly.

It looks a bit like a long-legged wooden side table at first, but a drawer slides out to reveal the hidden ‘head’ of the walking vehicle. In turn, the resulting composition appears a lot like the mechanical legs and body of the AT-AT strider.

Avatar director James Cameron, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, former covert CIA analyst Valerie Plame, 4chan founder and provocateur Christopher “Moot” Poole and potty-mouthed comedian Sarah Silverman are among the eclectic mix of speakers that will rock the harbor town through Saturday.

Bdelloid rotifers, microscopic asexual freshwater invertebrates (animals without spines) are the ultimate escape artists, able to outpace their enemies by drying up and blowing away. For most animals, sex is not only a way of producing the next generation, but a means of keeping enemies at bay.

I spent about 30 minutes on Friday night on Chatroulette (very NSFW). You push the start button and you're instantly in a video chat with some random person. During my session, the average "chat" lasted about 5 seconds and I observed several people drinking malt liquor, two girls making out, many many guys who disconnected as soon as they saw I wasn't female, several girls who disconnected after seeing my face (but not before I caught the looks of disgust on theirs), 3 couples having sex, and 11 erect penises. In a Malkovichian moment, I was even connected to myself once…and then the other me quickly disconnected. In short, Chatroulette is pretty much the best site going on the internet right now.

delicious del.icio.us
It’s been awhile I didn’t tag my bookmark with delicious (or del.icio.us).
There’s only one bookmark for the whole 2009. Whereas 2009 was my most sedentary work routine with internet access around.
6 month in KL. 3 month in Singapore. 3 month in Miri offshore and Labuan.
As opposed to 2008.
3 month in KL. 3 month in Singapore. 6 month in Miri offshore and Labuan.
This little Chrome extension plugin might help a little bit with the frequency of bookmarking.
And being on Twitter doesn’t help much too -_-
