Mechanical design engineer officially now. It's been a weird and AWESOME day and I had so many hugs.
I can't be grateful enough and those people are part of those who rocked my world this afternoon.
Thank you again, thank you so much.

Tea Party
With Sephiroth. That would be the penultimate tea party!
Hold on....
Is that coffee??
If so, it's okay. I'll take mine very light and with cinnamon, please. Still a tea party though.

What are you doing?
-"Blowing off steam..."
-"You're not EVEN DONE with your report! And the simu.."
-"It's either playing or I pick on my face. So leave me alone..."
-".."
Nothing can irritate me as much as a friend interrupting insistently a retrogaming party. A gamin party ok, but I don't ALLOW any interruption in my retrogaming party...
Or my MMORPG one as well.

Memories
We often hear that memories can be suppressed. Watching him, I find myself thinking…Perhaps we are born knowing everything, but are only allowed to live after having had that knowledge sealed away.

TV free for 8 years today...
The idea that you can take a punch and it’s just a punch is not in TV or movies. You’re not dead; you’re not crippled, but then again, you’re corrupted by TV. You are capable of enduring so much more than you think you are capable of, that you never dreamed you were capable of. These things we perceive as gigantic risks really are not!

The Chant of a Cyborg Making
When I’m a bit down with the overwhelming work I have to perform before handing over my report, I launch the opening sequence of one of my favorite Japanese animations, Ghost In The Shell, and suck the music with all my mind while catching every step of the mechanical process.
I think I find it genuinely capturing a vision of technology that I cherish: the traditional chant of life given to the making of a cyborg, the mechanical sounds finding their way through the high-pitched voices of the music, the wires marrying the tradition, robots waltzing with trees.
In general, it inspires me enough to actually go back to work and be more accurate and consistent with my theoretical calculations of bolts endurance, welding efficiency and FEM data.

Chris Martin on Coldplay Fans
Coldplay is for people with great taste, intelligence, incredible good lookingness, talent, ability, success, grabbing of life.
Coldplay’s for people who know what life’s about. They’re always entertaining. Delightful to talk to. Sweet, charming, incredibly good in bed. Virile. They have incredible success with girls, or boys, or both. They’re generally just the world’s best citizens.
Maybe I’m biased, but I’m definitely right.

Chrono Trigger Randomly
Laughing to that joke since 2004
What does feel good more than some retrogaming?
Some retrodancing!
Honestly, you can't just CAN'T hold still when Burn! Bobonga! is playing, whether you're acquainted with the game or not.

Hit or get Hit
It’s not about how hard you can hit. It’s about how much you can get hit and still keep moving forward. It’s about how hard you can get hit and still be moving forward.

Alice by Shel Silverstein
She drank from a bottle called DRINK ME
And up she grew so tall,
She ate from a plate called TASTE ME
And down she shrank so small.
And so she changed, while other folks
Never tried nothin’ at all.
