            &lt;/div&gt;
            &lt;div class=&quot;enclosure-meta&quot;&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- end enclosure --&gt;



&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Finally came the spring with lazy rains and ongoing cold weather. We have been captured in our ugly winter coats for months which is longer then we expect. Don&amp;#39;t know when we will see the real sunshine that shines through the curtains and pave the path of melting summer days, though it is obvious that the climate has been changing. What is remaining the same? There is always something remains the same and something changes. This &amp;quot;karma&amp;quot; hits me now! It is me, the one who always rummage around for a trace to find something to change, remaining the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what&amp;#39;s the point of mentioning the spring while I am still dealing with my super-important tasks? No point at all. Yet, it makes me feel I am rebelling against the rules set by this abstract graduate-student precedents. I am not an ordinary graduate-student who waste her life spending with articles and theories with no explanatory powers at all. I don&amp;#39;t want to end up with no life, many articles, a title, lots of fat around my hips and psychological disorders.&lt;br /&gt;
    
    
    

    
    
    

    
    
    
&lt;div at:enclosure=&quot;asset&quot; at:xid=&quot;6a00ccff8c8598673100e398ecc62a0004&quot; at:format=&quot;medium&quot; at:align=&quot;right&quot;

            &lt;/div&gt;
            &lt;div class=&quot;enclosure-meta&quot;&gt;

            &lt;/div&gt;
    
        &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- end enclosure --&gt;


&lt;br /&gt;What do I want then? A minimalist way of life. That&amp;#39;s it. I just want to lie my legs on the grass and feel how wet it is, smell the-grass-after-rain scent, and&amp;#160; be part of the life which is crucial for social scientist.&amp;#160; Could you imagine a democracy without&amp;#160; &amp;quot;demos&amp;quot;? Of course not . How come a social scientist can do her job without any social dimension?&amp;#160; The ones who claim that it is not vital are not speaking the words of truth and wisdom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I am rebelling against this preconditioned order. I&amp;#39;ll do it my way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;p style=&quot;clear:both;&quot;&gt;

            <description>    &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;What&amp;#39;s one thing you regret doing, or not doing?&amp;#160; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 0.8em;&quot;&gt;Submitted by &lt;a href=&quot;http://ashleyy.vox.com/&quot; class=&quot;enclosure-inline-user&quot; at:enclosure=&quot;inline-user&quot; at:user-xid=&quot;6p00c22524fac8604a&quot; at:screen-name=&quot;ashleyy&quot; at:delegate=&quot;people-connect&quot; at:user-pic=&quot;http://up0.vox.com/6a00c22524fac8604a00e398cc4ff80003-75si&quot; &gt;ashleyy&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not a total regret that I usually feel in my life, though, it is something which makes anybody feel regretful once in a while.&amp;#160; For sure, it is to &amp;quot;love somebody&amp;quot;. I do not solely mean denotation but also connotations of love.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&quot;clear:both;&quot;&gt;

            <description>    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #3075fb; font-size: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;As the midterm session started, me and the rest of the gang fell into
the abyss, baffled just because there is so many things to do and a
little time left to manage them all. You may ask me why I am writing
here instead of studying. I don&amp;#39;t know, indeed. Every time I keep my
self away from my computer, I find myself thinking about extraneous
things. So, I decided to spend time on Internet since it is better than
to spend time without doing anything. &lt;br /&gt;Briefly, there are many ways for
reasoning irrational behaviours.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&quot;clear:both;&quot;&gt;

 &lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #3075fb&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;We all need some place to find the peace of our own, but some people need&amp;#160; this more than others. And sometimes, I mean the times one feels that he is about to go insane, the bedlam of life becomes more unbearable than ever. During those moments, there is just one thing to do:&lt;/em&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 1.25em;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;smile!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&quot;clear:both;&quot;&gt;
