it's 9:43 pm and it's sunday. back then (about weeks ago), i was so bored that i wanted to go back here in los baños. but now it's different, i want my vacation (semestral break) be extended. last week was the mark of the start of the second semester. tomorrow will be the first day of classes. i'm actually excited to see my friends, but as previously stated, i want my vacation be extended.
the truth is, i made this entry just to have one (here in my new blog).

the "i"
i am not what i am and am what i am not. i am my own nothingness.
-- jean-paul sartre
i am a thinking thing. i think therefore i am.
-- rene descartes
i am the mean between everything and nothing.
-- blaise pascal
i am what i repeatedly do. -- aristotle
AN EYE FOR AN "i"
the "i"; the ninth letter of the modern English alphabet.
it is a one-letter word, contested in terms of its meaning.
it could be the "me"; that which explicates my identity.
but what is the "me"?
how can the "me" be reduced to an i?
or the "i" be reduced to a "me"?
is "i = me" logically true?
can the identity be contained in a one-letter word such as "i"?
or can the "i" contain the identity?
can "me" be the "i"?
can "i" be the "me"?
the "i"; grammatically spelled with a capital letter such as "I",
hereafter used with a small letter "i",
to explain the "me" -
a "me" who is not only a subject who looks at objects
but an object as being looked by other subjects.
