why wy?

finally went climbing today, probably my first in a year. I did two climbs, took the wuss route on one and a layback on the other. Halfway there, i said to myself, I can't believe i used to like this. The sense of fear, your full weight resting on your big toe and a thin piece of rubber, feeling up a flat wall looking for holds (usually none or few). Now, as i type this in anticipation of aching limbs tomorrow, I think I can start to love it again, as soon as i'm a little fitter. And as soon as I can swivel my hips around more.

Have finally thought of my summer project, but it may be too ambitious. I want to be able to understand cantonese + read chinese and i thought of start watching cantonese serials with only chinese subtitles. although i wonder if it will be like the rosetta stone, where you need a known language to translate unknowns.

A war is always good for a population boom, but without resorting to drastic measures, giving people more money and more time should help. Erotic night-time tv, or even no tv at night may help, or blackouts ever so often.
