Indonesia as an idea of indirect opportunity
jotted down in my notebook yesterday:
"Not constructed in my anticipating imagination as a utopic neverland where a directionless graduate escapes from the troubles of real life into a mgaical worry-free kingdom where dreams come true. I think of it more as an alternate world in which I can hone my ability to confront the myriad obstacles of the direction finding process. To deal with my problems tangentially: by giving myself a completely new slate of interim problems and learning from the process of dealing with them."
still working it through, but i wanted to publish this to expose my highfalutin bullshit for scrutiny ¶ 3:00 PM

hmmm. there used to be a poster in one of my h.s. classrooms that said "eschew obfuscation". i couldn't help but point out that if you chose simpler, meatier, fleshier, *shorter* words, your thought -- which was interesting -- would be so much more poignant! =) how many times did you backspace???

to respond to your comment, i agree that it would be more poignant with less obfuscation... but the thing is that it all kind of just came out like that. i didn't use the backspace button at all... and because of that, i worried that revision with the aim of focusing effect might lead to improper alteration of the thought.
