AM talks about life again...
"We can be ignorant in a certain time of our lives."
One of my professors said that yesterday in class while telling us about the ignorance of the Catholic church during the middle ages, what with all the torture methods, witch hunts, and guillotines. I just found it to be a strangely nice quote yeah.
So, that plus...
Solipsism Syndrome
"Some environments are conducive to the state of mind, known as Solipsism Syndrome, in which a person feels that everything is a dream and is not real. This state of mind occurs, for example, in the Arctic winter when it is night 24 hours a day.
"Solipsism is a philosophical theory that everything is in the imagination, and there is no reality outside one's own mind. As a philosophical theory it is interesting because it is internally consistent and, therefore, cannot be disproved. But as a psychological state, it is highly uncomfortable. The whole of life becomes a long dream from which an individual can never wake up. Each person is trapped in a nightmare. Even friends are not real, they are a part of the dream. A person feels very lonely and detached, and eventually becomes apathetic and indifferent."

Current words/concepts/stuff inside my inspiration box:
+ Solipsism/Solipsism Syndrome
+ The world exists only for you (another definition of solipsism from another dictionary)
+ Shampoo Planet (by Douglas Coupland)
+ Rootless
+ Travelling
+ The thought that in this another renaissance we're living, today's youth has a larger physical territory, like a larger playground, to search for bits and pieces of themselves in. But does it really make it harder to make one's self complete just because of expanded physical geography?
+ We know things can make 180 degree turns in a matter of minutes, hours, days. But how does it really happen? How much change can we make happen in a matter of days and weeks?
+ How is it possible that we find ourselves in places we've never been to before? Portable and self-contained, these 2 words somehow come across. To lazy to expound on it now.
As you can see I have come up with a few concepts and been wrapping myself with all these abstractness for the documentary I'm doing for the Indochina trip.

BTW So effing excited cos looks like I have been recommended to Japan and my papers are there now, the embassy just didn't call. AAAAAH Please, please I hope I do get in :( I've been watching NHK on cable for the past hours and I really miss the place. To Chris: yep they said December is the earliest the results are going to be out but if it the results aren't out yet, they will definitely be available by January.
AAAAAAAAAAAAH.
