Muse!

No, I'm not here to talk about Matt Bellamy's hotness or how much I love this band or how good they are in everything they do.

This can be thought of as a time pass thing that I do when I skip university.

I've been given and giving a lot of career advise lately and the more I think about it, the more I realise that I have absolutely no quantifiable achievement that I can possibly put down in my resume. I don't have a single High distinction in my transcript, I don't have any awards or the likes .. basically I have nothing except that I'm nice to people, which believe me does not help in any way.

Enough of that ..

'Any goddess that looks over any form of art is a muse' according to dictionary.com and the ancient Greeks. The first time I came across this term was in a book where a horror-writer finds out that her muse is a hideous, ugly and sexually perverted being and wanted a large portion of her earnings .. pretty cool. Christopher Pike had been the 'thing' during my early teens; but it was R.L. Stein who first introduced (safe) sex in a book- or making love as he'd put it. As if a couple of confused teenagers would know what making love actually means.

Recently, I've come to hate all these -isms we keep coming up with. -isms and -holics.

Anyhow, why are the entries so small in size these days?
