Recently, I read that statistically, that only fifty person of what you say is freedom of your choice. does what i say make sense?
As in- the other fifty percent of what you say is confined by the linguistic structures of language in order for you to make sense while the other fifty is for you to choose to shape what you say in an original manner.
interesting ayee??? right? RIGHT?!
maybe it was thirty i can't remember dammit. but im sure it was 50 and if 50 is what is right then it should be pretty reliable because i read this from a peer-reviewed journal and sydney uni says peer-reviewed journals plus some other type of writing is extremely reliable, if not 100% reliable.
actually not 100% reliable i only said that because the sentence sounded complete and Ahsumm!! if i used "if not" in it.
anyway, is the reason i think im inarticulate because i lack linguistic skill/vocab or because not enough words exist out there to accurately represent the ideas that flow within my head.
OK if i ever get a chance (prolly not LOL) i might post something from something i read in a media and communications reading. if!! i get around to understanding it, but im no even barely grasping the concept so waiiiiiittttttttttttttttttttt excitedly peeppppsss but i know its something quiteee mind opening!!
and forgive my nonsensical post titles, im just trying to be exciting okay
BYEBYE!!

emoticons :-)
according to this article http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8199951.stm
apparently eastern and western people have different ways of interpreting facial expressions, with the west focusing more on the whollistic face and the east more on the eyes (but as a result of cultural circumstances rather than genetics)
and apparently it's apparent in emoticons too HAHAAAAAAA
interesting... indeed the eyes of the "western emoticons" remain dots and the mouths of the "eastern emoticons" neutral.
now how can i apply this knowledge to real lifeeeeee? : S

| Emotion | West | East |
|---|---|---|
| 'Happy' | :-) | (^_^) |
| 'Sad' | :-( | (;_;) or (T_T) |
| 'Surprise' | :-o | (o.o) |

1+1
they say eyes are the windows to one's soul
but don't you think these glossy meaningful looking apertures are just so physically shallow but eyes are such deep symbols, look at all the metaphoric meanings that it represents!
but sometimes when i'm talking to a person, i look at their eyes and i start to feel so disconnected, i examine the shape, the colour, and try to visually dig deeper into their retinas(is that what is is?) or whatever in search of a material form of a connection.
eyes convey a lot of emotion and shiz but sometimes they are friggen blockages, sometimes i wonder that if i physically looked "deep" enough into an eye i could actually understand someone. but then i start focussing on the black roundness of their iris.
and then i realize that maybe i don't need to look in the person's eyes to connect, anmd that maybe i should just listen to the voice of the speaker and look away
and then i think, we can't all truly understand each other unless we are part of one conciousness because even language cannot capture the intentions and other thoughts that accompany and exist behind what we say.
oh and rumour once said if you continually stared at a person in the eye for 4 minutes, your chances of liking them is higher, but that's just rumor don't trust me on that LOL
and when i don't wear glasses, i stare the blurry image of a person's eyes so they know i'm listening (and i am btw)
but anyway the point is, i will continually look into peoples eyes as i communicate gyahaha

UNI LIFE UNEDITD
University life is sooooooooooooooo meh. I like the days where I can just leave real early and there are clubs buuuuuuut i think a small part of measuring the quality of university life is measured by your need for some good social interaction and how much satisfactorily/illusory good social interaction you actually get and most of the ones i get are temporary like:

JOOPDAWOOPALOOPYHOOPY
if you time travelled back and met your younger self, and your younger self asked: what is my future like, the future where you exist right now?
and you told him/her the answer. do you think he or she'd be disappointed or super happy?
and on another note, my so called blog revamp is going to take a realllllly lonnnng while so don't expect a change soon HAHA when i first saw the pic of the cityview(my blog header picture) i was like fwoah so coool, now i feel un-reactive towards it haha
does it reinforce the vague concept that excitement comes from changeeeeeee

HI.
i dont know why but ive always thought of my blog as something i would leave so that my children could read it. Not saying i am going to have children or get married even, but i think that because i probably need to leave some thoughts for my children to read so they can see the transition of a teenager to an adult that i couldnt see in my parents LOL
Like i would also be extremely reluctant to chuck out random pieces of paper i write on sometiems and my old kindy books and year 7-12 stuff becaues i want my children to somehow, indirectly live and understand a part of my life that they have not lived in. and also because i wanted to see my parent's year 7 homework and the like.
all this talk of "my children" is a bit creepy TOO ADULT FOR ME MAYNE.
