MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World

MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World. Wednesday, September 7, 2011. Back from a 2 year stint abroad! I just got back from two years abroad - 1.5 years living and teaching games programming in New Zealand followed by a 4.5 month trip through the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, China, North Korea and Japan. What a wonderful experience! I feel like a completely changed person now, and am even more unsure of where home is anymore! Looking forward to getting back into the online communities!

MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World: Troubled by Decisions? Relax - it Doesn't Matter!

http://www.mandarinmanmark.blogspot.com/2010/11/troubled-by-decisions-relax-it-doesnt.html

MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World. Wednesday, November 24, 2010. Relax - it Doesn't Matter! I've come to an interesting conclusion: the more difficult a decision is, the less important it is! Although this may seem counter-intuitive, I haven't found a fully convincing counter-example yet. D = I/(1 B1 - B2 ). Ignoring the constants, whose values I suppose will depend on the individual). D: Difficulty of the decision. B1, B2: Expected final benefit from decision 1 and decision 2 respectively.

MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World: August 2009

MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World. Friday, August 14, 2009. I've been thinking over the years, and the idea of a food tax seems better and better to me. Now, I do not think a flat food tax is a good idea, but there are two specific situations in which I think a food tax would serve the greater good. Saturday, August 8, 2009. Complacency and Ignorance - Health Care in the USA. Wednesday, August 5, 2009. Finding the Value in Life. What do you want to get out of it? But what if you are like me?

MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World. Monday, July 26, 2010. Originally posted on my deviantART account:. I've been mulling over making some large changes in my life, since I don't feel like I am progressing towards my goals. In fact, there are a lot of things to think about. What I want to accomplish, what makes me happy, my goals for a few years down the road. I think I've come up with three things that are my priorities:. Is it even possible to achieve all of those goals? I don't know what to do...

MandarinManMark's Ruminations on the World. Saturday, October 9, 2010. Not Having a Particularly Good Week. I'm not having a particularly good week this week - it seems like everything has gone wrong/worse this week for me - on all fronts! One of the very few times when I feel like I am either taking a step in the wrong direction or not making any progress in all categories. I won't provide any details, but:. Career-wise, things are not going well this week. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. Has a "conciousnes...

MandarinManMark's Travel Log: April 2010

http://mandarinmanmarktravel.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 23, 2010. Tonga - Tongatapu - Day 4. Next up was a coconut tree. A three-headed coconut tree. Depending on who you as, the only three-headed coconut tree in the world, or one of a few very rare multi-headed coconut trees in the world. In any case, I was amused that apparently there are so few things to do and see in Tongatapu that this tree is a mentioned in many guide books and websites about Tonga! Although to be fair, a multi-headed coconut tree is quite rare, indeed! How awesome is that!

Saturday, July 24, 2010. Melbourne - Day 2. All of a sudden, that big sign by the counter claiming that King of the Fries is now fully vegetarian suddenly makes sense! We wolfed down the food as fast as we could, as were were planning to attend a show starting at 11am. As it turns out, this was a "senior's cinema" show, specifically advertised to the senior audience! It wasn't until we had our food in front of us when I discovered that Jake has never had Szechuan food before! He did really enjoy the dinn...

Friday, November 18, 2011. Update: Posts Resuming Soon! Since I've been travelling, I haven't had the chance to update my blog. I also went right on the Mafia Wars 2 team upon arriving in SF, so going from 5 moths of not working to pulling 100hr work weeks was quite a system shock!

MandarinManMark's Travel Log: Melbourne - Day 3

http://mandarinmanmarktravel.blogspot.com/2010/09/melbourne-day-3.html

Wednesday, September 1, 2010. Melbourne - Day 3. I tried to look for an indoor area to wait for Jake, but as everything was closed, I had to stand outside and endure the cold - I was surprisingly cold even though I was wearing nearly every article of clothing I had brought on this trip! In fact, we had even passed through this alleyway while looking for the Szechuan restaurant, but the entrance was so inconspicuous that we didn't spot it the first time!

MandarinManMark's Travel Log: June 2010

http://mandarinmanmarktravel.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html

Saturday, June 19, 2010. Melbourne - Day 1. I love it when plans just work out while travelling! After some warm hellos, we headed off to explore Melbourne together. The first stop was a café that Jake was directed to earlier, where one could order a bowl of coffee. A bowl! Of course, not wanting to leave Jake out of the fun, I had been buying his drinks, as he has effectively no money left to spend. Oh yeah, and one other thing I learned - apparently my ticket purchased worked out after all. Any tic...

MandarinManMark's Travel Log: March 2010

http://mandarinmanmarktravel.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 28, 2010. Piha Beach and One Tree Hill. I suppose that's New Zealand, where there is just not that many people around. When we finally had enough, we climbed up a steep rocky section back to the trail, which was quite a challenge as I had left my shoes (jandals - the New Zealand term for flip-flops) in the car. We then had a very pleasant drive back to town through the road to Piha, which is surrounded by beautiful tropical-looking vegetation. Thursday, March 18, 2010. Another thing that I ...

MandarinManMark's Travel Log: May 2010

http://mandarinmanmarktravel.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html

Saturday, May 8, 2010. Would I choose that life over one in a developed country where money is king? How many Tongans would choose to trade their life with life in the developed world? Well, there was a lot to think about, but for now, during our descent, I am just relaxing and enjoying the views of Great Barrier Island and the beaches north of Auckland I am quite fond of. Plus, I'm just happy that I'm on my way back to a hot shower and some dry clothes. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sunday, December 11, 2011. Update: Completed notes for post-New Zealand trip. Just finished my handwritten notes about my New Zealand to San Francisco trip. After typing these notes up, I'll be back to updating this blog again. It wasn't easy, but I now have a cool hand-written journal for this 116 day long trip, and filled up over 160 pages! I look forward to sharing my stories with everyone soon! There are some interesting stories from this trip I can't wait to share, such as:. So many memories, and I'...

Saturday, April 14, 2012. New Photo-Based Travel Journal! Realising that it will take me many years to write up detailed travel stories, I've decided to start a new picture-focused travel blog! It'll also be easier to read in small bite-sized chunks. I still plan on eventually writing up my detailed thoughts and experiences along with a lot of information about the places I've been, but for new, you can see a fun overview of my travels. Please drop by when you get a chance! Wednesday, December 14, 2011.
