Hey there,
I haven't written in a long time - my brain cells have been re-wired and I'm mired in my own existence, which is usually fine, unless someone shakes me out of it with a "you haven't written in a while". So I thought I'd dust this old blog up, spray some perfume on it and tell you about my day.
The highlight of my day, apart from some heavy procrastination, was the visit to the Science Museum (SM). It's right on exhibition road, though you can't see it if you try to visit during the summer break, as its drowned in a sea of kids and parents. Thanks to the big-whale exhibit next door at the Natural History, the majority of the kids stayed away from the SM.
I went straight to the IMAX, because I was late for a movie that I was booked in to watch called "The Hidden Universe". 3D is built for space-movies, I tell you. The 40 minute movie on the secrets of our universe, showing images from the edge of our universe and the Very Large Telescope (VLT) was truly magnificent. Ofcourse, I felt I needed to brush up on my physics and engineering and start to become a space-explorer, except that the little voice in my head whispered, "that ship has sailed". Nevertheless, ignoring my own pessimism and existential angst, I have to say that it instilled a certain awe back into my sunday of running outside and wanting to see the night-sky.

I will endeavour to tell you more about my pursuits of happiness and knowledge (ahem).
