I have been answering several question evolving around how is it like to be back in Paris. It definitely isn't what I have told some of you guys. To clear the air, my life here no where near having "abundance of drugs, booze and meaningless sex". Damn. I wonder who ever gave you guys the idea that I actually lead such a hedonistic lifestyle. If I'm ever on a high, it is probably from endorphin, adrenaline and not drugs. If I'm ever caught between sheets, chances are they are sheets of exam papers and not bedsheets. Life is light years from hedonistic and a step from hermetic. How is my life here?
lonely.

In the movie 21, we encountered the Monty Hall problem.
"Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice?"
What is the right choice to make? What is your choice? Answer.

Come Monday, my exceptionally eventful summer holiday will be over. Even though I won't say that the past few months have been life changing, they definitely have changed my priorities. I spend a lot of my time evaluating relationships, debating with people who have values opposite to mine and reading economics books (i wonder why i hadn't considered taking it as a major).
I explore the possibility of not becoming an engineer.

...I had began this entry with, "The sun was exceptionally sunny last Sunday". Yes.. I was as appalled as you by the overuse of the word 'sun'. Clearly, the stagnation of my English at primary school level have to be concealed, if not I would be doing great injustice to my GP tutor. So i retyped the opening sentence...
The intensely hot, self-luminous body of gases at the center of the solar system was exceptionally radiant on last sabbatical day of the month. We embarked on our 9km march along the southern ridges..
"tree top trails. dress appropriately. do not wear skirts. no heels.
ppl would know what's underneath and your heels will be stuck in the holes ;-)"-cj
next up... the henderson wave!
