Today I posted the blog at work, announcing that I'm leaving.
And as the realisation of me finally leaving Oxford after 7 years here started to slowly wash over me, it was surreal.
In a final conversation with Donna*, someone who over the time I've worked at Brookes has [...]

(Misteka is walking back from the facilities.) 
Misteka: Did anything this past weekend?
Girl @ work: Not really. I've booked some trips for next month, so just been at home saving up my money.
Misteka: Oh cool. Where are the trips to?
Girl @ work: (dreamingly with a smile on her face)  Portugal, Berlin -
Misteka: (wryly, Britishesque, without thinking) [...]

I found a ZIP file of an XML file – old blog posts from old Blogger account which I had taken off-line. Have put them in here now under a new category called Dark Time.

Yeah, it's been a while. Ever since I read this post on Guy Kawasaki's blog, this is no longer my on-line urinal for rants, free-floating thoughts, and emotional outbursts after long buildups. I'm not out to make money from my blog and websites just yet. I'm not really sure what I'm doing in any [...]

Misteka gets his own personal blog. No more myspace, ringo, bebo, fido, leedo, guido. Just one place to get blogs about shisha, thoughts, writings, the works.
Here we go, my new blog. I’ve been in and out of the blog zone many times. As I import posts from other blogs and consolidate things, looking over old [...]

I recently watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and it’s now in my top 5 most powerful, brilliant, and preferred films of all time. I commented to my friends afterwards that it seems to be the sequel or maybe just the complement to the other awesome film Being John Malkovich. It’s spurred me to [...]
