Lifehacks: Writing

Posted on November 29th, 2004 by Sacha Chua

I should interleave insight-finding with my studies so that my poor
brain can take a rest every so often. ;) I have a fairly boring life
at this point, anyway, so I don’t really have personal stories to
tell. I can still indulge in, say, 30 minutes of chatting. Now, if I
can get my mom and Dominique to work out a schedule so that that I can
sleep by 11 PM…

I liked tonight’s chat with my family. Just a few quick stories from
my dad, then back to studying. My mom will just have to get used to
the fact that my life is currently boring. <laugh>
