so, you know, lately, I’ve been hearing this sound. Everywhere I go, like a tick, tick, tick… Like a time bomb in some cheesy B-movie or Saturday morning cartoon. The fuse has been lit. The clock counts down the seconds as the flame gets closer, and closer, and closer, until… all at once…

from tick, tick…boom!

it’s been a week into the program. i just read a brief rant on the future of interaction design, by bret victor. people on the floor keep talking, laughing. some are working. i can’t breathe.


it feels like there’s so little time. i thought two years would give me something; something tangible to be able to pursue this career-path. but there’s so much play & study still required. i don’t think two years will be enough.

i squeeze the most out of everyday. i’m trying — really trying — to live up to my vows for graduate school. but i’m struggling. i barely make it everyday.


i just need to keep working; keep spearheading forward in a blind leap of faith. trust the process is what prachi said during the first day of undergraduate-study.
