mayoraaseiI figured that since ads are becoming a norm on LJ if you're not logged in, the only difference between a Plus account and a Basic account is my surfing experience, and since I don't spend copious amounts of time surfing LJ while logged in....
So the short of the story is I upgraded to Plus account. Have not figured out how to switch back but supposedly it's possible to. I don't think it makes any difference to people looking at this journal except that the ads are now at the top instead of the side, which I find easier to ignore anyway =/
In other news...last week I had a dream where someone walked up to an old lady and promised to do something - which I can't remember. As recognition of the exchange (kind of like a binding contract), the person pressed the brows of the old lady, and two dark bruise-like circles appeared around her eyes.
It seemed that not everyone could see those circles, and the person vanished after that. Somehow or other, the old lady (or someone else who could see the bruises) figured out that it was a curse, and they went to a spiritual guru to remove it. The guru looked at her and sighed that it couldn't be removed and said meaningfully, "這是怨啊"
...For a moment everyone thought he said "緣" (predestined relationship), and it was only when he said nothing more that everyone noticed the inflection which turned it into "怨" (hatred and resentment).
For some reason I got really creeped out by this dream >__>; I mean, the two words are so close in inflection that I'm surprised I haven't come across this sort of situation in a fictional story. Both "怨" and "緣" can have spiritual/supernatural connotations. When they talk about vengeful spirits, it's "怨"....
I guess I got creeped out because of how much sense the wordplay actually made =__=;;;

Date: 2008-11-09 11:20 am (UTC)What did you watch/do/read for that dream?
When will i next see you? Tell your mum when i next see you she will receive 2 months worth of little newpaper payment. (I still can't believe my mum still doesn't have a clue who your mum is o_o) Lalalallaala I'm very dizzy Lalalallala. I got my ears pierced today, i was about to faint about 10 minutes after piercing my ears (everything went white and the sound around me started fading...freaky) and spent the rest of the day feeling lightheaded. Is that normal?
