Polish Kiwis - for once, FOR REALS!

Never thought the day would come so soon!
But here I'm sitting in my dorm room using my Filipino roommate's MacBook in the middle of Rzeszow, Poland! WHAAT
Finally getting to use a laptop after days! So exciting :D
This is all so surreal! I got here on Wednesday and have been living alone till now, walking around the city, stocking up my mini fridge and chilling in this room with such a beautiful view.
POLISH KIWIS (that look like balls) (oh no why did I think that who will eat it now)

I had such a long trip to here. Almost 24 hours!






- Doha, so lovely from high up above




Snow capped mountains!!!



Landing in Warsaw xD




 I had to take the bus from Warsaw to Rzeszow, so I barely got to see much of Warsaw, just my short bus ride to the bus station.
And then I bought a pina colada flavoured chocolate and the best Lays I have ever had for my dinner on the bus.



My room - Look how girly the curtains are!
And the view from my room. There's a river in the distance. This MacBook doesn't have an SD slot so I will get to upload my better quality camera pics hopefully later, if I can use the laptops at the university.


My Polish AIESEC friend took me shopping and I bought some awesomely colourful cutlery. SEE my blue mug, orange bowl, yellow plate and yellow knife! I bought some lovely pink ear muffs too!
And then I went and had some strawberry ice-cream which was so good! Never mind the randomly leaky nose because of the cold :P


Yesterday I found this nice infinity scarf after which I had a photo session with my camera. This was the decent-est picture of the lot, and is actually a picture of the picture :P
And look how big the pillow is! Tigers are my favourite wild animal but this one staring at me gives me the creeps.

This is going to be one fun journey. I love the food here too, even though I've not got the chance to try pierogi yet! I can't believe last week this time I was home, so far away!

Toodles. :D

New Quotes

For people who believe strongly in the illusiveness of life, to doubt would be more correct than to bear full conviction about anything at all. But then again that questions their primary belief in illusions. - Aditi A world without faith in a higher power or a god is a better world where we can be responsible for our own actions; where we can be kind to one another because we want to and because it is the right thing to do instead of being frightened into behaving by the threat of divine punishment. Many events may have defied your ability to explain, events that seem like miracles, but if you are convinced that you failed to understand them because you're still woefully ignorant about the universe and the learning will never stop, then, you cannot and will not believe that a deity altered the workings of nature. Don't ignore reality in order to comfort yourself, for once you do, you make it easy for others to deceive you. Understanding breeds empathy. We do not writ...

ChAI

I used AI to make my chai this morning.   Why? Because I wanted to see if I’d still get that dopamine hit from something I didn’t even make.   I wanted to know if, by outsourcing an experience whose only purpose was my own consumption, it would take away from it.   By removing the act of boiling water, steeping tea—by only keeping the intent to make it—would I still feel the satisfaction when I took the first sip?   I read somewhere that you should aim to do hard things. That when you push yourself, when you fight resistance, and break through the boundaries of what you thought you could do, the dopamine hit is bigger.   But what happens when everything can be done by AI?   What happens when AI whispers, "I got you," and we stop doing anything at all?   The dopamine hit then wouldn’t come from the effort, but from the discovery that AI can do more, so we do less.   But here’s the catch—AI will do more, and w...

Kept / Wept / Slept

For a while now, I've been wearing house slippers that are way too big for me. Firsthand experiencing the dangers of seeking (and knowing) too much, and finding out, rudely, unceremoniously, curiosity can kill more than just the cat. While exciting to taste the fruity slurps of seemingly full-knowledge, the satisfying crunch of acknowledgement, like punching holes through a thick stack of warm copy paper, the thrill of cliff jumps can culminate into bum-first crashing into the deceptive deep. Nobody warns you. That the water is always shallower; swallowing life too fragile to keep. No one explains that the depth is a trick. That the more that you dig, the less it will stick. Hunger loud from the tum; buns left in the breadbasket: none. And thread count of those slightly expensive sheets? No reliable guarantee of sleep. Long story short, if worry is the thief of joy; self awareness is the enemy of miracles. And so the slippers go into that unopened shoe cupboard, unused, where their...
