I had my first professional hair cut in 10 years. Before, I’d just have someone grab the bottom of my ponytail and hack the damned thing off with a pair of regular office scissors. Today, I went out and spent a cool 21 yuan (about 4 dollars) in a [...]]]> http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/09/cascade-success/feed/ 2 http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/09/mental-strangulations/ http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/09/mental-strangulations/#comments Sun, 13 Sep 2009 16:03:28 +0000 Jayml http://www.rah-kun.net/?p=790 I’ve discovered, recently, that 6 hours of sleep is an inefficient method of getting the requisite energy for teaching 6 hours of classes the next day. In fact, I have discovered, the energy to activity ratio is hardly 1:1. This, sadly, made today and yesterday a time wherein it, as they say, “sucked to be [...]]]> http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/09/mental-strangulations/feed/ 0 http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/09/finding-my-dark-twin-hazelnuts/ http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/09/finding-my-dark-twin-hazelnuts/#comments Mon, 07 Sep 2009 08:52:44 +0000 Jayml http://www.rah-kun.net/?p=770 I ran into this a few weeks ago and only got around to watching it now: (includes Tom Waits anecdote, be forewarned) (It came highly recommended from a webcomic artist I enjoy) I really like the idea of externalizing one’s creativity.

I had a jolt of excitement for a short hour or two earlier where I put my headphones on and did [...]]]> http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/07/ennui-part-18/feed/ 2 http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/07/a-mini-update-roundup/ http://www.rah-kun.net/2009/07/a-mini-update-roundup/#comments Thu, 30 Jul 2009 03:14:17 +0000 Jayml http://www.rah-kun.net/?p=636 Here is a small list of things I’ve been meaning to mention, or just thought to mention, in no particular order. mosquito bites Mosquito bites are scary here.

I’ve been in a malaise recently, so I haven’t been able to draw much in the past week or two.
