paglingon sa pinanggalingan

unbeknownst to those of you, if any, who still visit my dusty corner of the internet, i have, in fact, been very prolific the past week in updating [yes, you read correctly] this blog. excluding this entry, a full 118 others have been added to the roster. but where, you might ask, are these phantomic articles to be found, since there appear to be no other new entries aside from this one?

the answer to that lies, as most things, in the past. a few months ago, i had the misfortune to be locked out of my fileserver, which was kind enough to freeze my account without so much as a warning email, thereby severing me from the written accounts of the first year of my college life.

fast-forward to last week, where by sheer chance i stumbled upon the internet wayback machine. imagine my surprise at the discovery that the official archives for the entire world wide web had deigned my little ol' blog significant enough to be backed up. 168 hours and a number of aesthetic corrections later, i am semi-proud to present the half-witted rambings of my four-years-younger self, as found in the archive links yonder to the right.

note that the words presented therein are often embarrassingly juvenile, even by my standards, which is to say that they reflect a period in my life which found me careless, carefree, and thinking myself impervious to change. needless to say, most of the opinions [and even facts!] noted in those pages are now foreign to my field of magnitudes.

if you still insist on venturing through, please do remember that there are reasons why the human brain is equipped with the capacity to invent, to rose-tint, and to forget.
