Dear {friend},
Goodness, you really sleep late don't you? Any particular reason for that? Could it be the coffee you had last night with the ladies? :) That's something that i've always wondered about: coffee doesn't seem to have any sort of effect on my whatsoever. Caffeine is supposed to make you hyperactive and thoroughly awake, but no matter how much of the stuff i consume, i still seem to feel groggy once it gets late at night (about 11.30 pm is when i start losing bodily control over my eyelids). *sigh* Was so difficult to stay awake during uni for those all night study sessions... the only things that keep me awake is either sex or taking a bath. After a while it gets a bit ridiculous to take a bath every 20 minutes (that's how long each bath keeps me up) to stay awake, so i just give up and hit the pillow.
Your blog has really given me inspiration to try again. In the past, before the introduction of websites such as Blogger.com, or Pitas.com or the host of Perl/CGI scripts that make blogging an easy-to-enjoy experience, i used to have to code everything by hand in HTML. That was a pain and it took nearly as much time coding as it took to actually write stuff. Didn't have enough time or resources to maintain that sort of process and that's largely why Renungan.com disappeared. Found it easier just to write to people like Malaysiakini.com and get them to print my stuff. But the problem i've found with that is that these people tend to edit my work and that upsets me because they subtlely change the meaning of my work and that's not a very good thing considering the controversial issues i tend to write about. Attached is a copy of something i recently published in its original format, "Draconian".
