Reflections on blogging

This is a blog first dedicated to Taiwan and then to my ramblings. Given the grim outlook and pessimistic view towards life this blog seems to show, I expect its readership to drop to a tittle, and I would see it in its newfound purpose of an online diary. This blog now allows me to reminisce about both Taiwan and my youth, and serves as a testament to how social realities and interpersonal failures have changed me. Academia and perhaps the teaching profession are my solace. I have no other pinings in life except for short trips and travels to places which I love, most notably Taiwan. Oh, plus the completion of my dissertation before time runs out.
