Little World Beside The Glass

October 9, 2008 kat 4 comments

While I was chatting with a friend last night, this line came out of my fingers: “I love my little world beside the glass.” My friend joked that I can make a novel out of the line, and I said why not.

Because boredom can make you do the most trivial things, I searched for images with the keywords “little world beside the glass”. And, I found this image from a blog called “little plastikk qube“. The image is one of the Portraits of Idling People on the Train, which the author tagged as “the seat beside the glass:

I found the image interesting because this is exactly how I look whether I’m idling or not at work. While the person in the image is on the seat beside the glass of a train, I am literally seated beside a glass at work. And although the image is not plausible, I love sitting beside the glass because I can detach myself from the world where “other people” live and create a little world of my own.

In fact, these past few days, it would be lucky if I blurted out five words to the people outside my little world beside the glass.

Fang Gets Even

The quote for the episode is: “The problem is that they’re stupid. I really shouldn’t blame them for being complete idiots, but they are. They don’t know it, but they are.” — Randy, referring to his teammates

A fellow Survivor fan asked me what I thought about Fang, if I thought the tribe would be the next Ulong. I told him that I didn’t think that Fang would be the next Ulong because I had faith in its members. Also, I usually find myself rooting for the underdogs.

And, I was right. After losing to Kota in three consecutive challenges, Fang made a come back, proving that they are not the worst tribe in the history of Survivor. Fang won both the reward and immunity challenges, the surest way to boost the tribe’s morale.

Kota, on the other hand, voted Paloma out, who is considered as the tribe’s weakest link.
