Self-chuck of the day: People who overuse cliché phrases. You hear it a lot in business, “push the edge of the envelope”, “think outside of the box,” but most of the time it’s completely irrelevant and not motivating. My favorite is “you can’t have your cake and eat it too.” Honestly, I just don’t get that one. If it’s my cake, I’m eating it…WALL!

I love self-chucks. They remind me starkly of how stupid people can get sometimes. It's not that I go around, looking at people's faults and their obviously-it-is-so-obvious mistakes (not that I have a lot of time on my hands, that is), but sometimes, or rather, most of the time, it is so apparent that it makes me chuckle. Yes, a very fine word for replacing "snigger". Laugh and brawl all you want.

If you noticed, I've changed the blog title to "An Essaouira's Tale". For most of you, you might not be familiar about who is essaouira. Actually, besides being a state in Morocco (which I've been before), this place called Essaouira exemplifies my inner being. It's a really calm place, where it seems that everything stood still. Everything is organized, though not that fully structured. Lots of breezes and cool winds, which is really soothing. Yes, that's the inner being of me. That's me on the inside, though it hardly shows.

They say that there could be no one that can really understand us left right center. I agree. Cos I myself am discovering amazing things about myself that I know I could never dream of knowing.

My writing has become somewhat incoherent, so I guess I'll justa end here for now. School tomorrow, yay, tomorrow's casual Friday! Can wear jeans, hohoooo!
