Journal Topics that I'm itching to write about...

One of my main frustrations is the fact that I always run across some great topics for my journal, but I always end up not being able to write about them and follow it through, now for future reference ... things I really want to write about in the future, but I'm just not in the mood to talk about them right now (in my most artsy-fartsy, bohemian writer cum architect cum artist tone):


1. Sell-out architecture/Commercial Architecture vs. Good Architecture


2. Being square/boring is good!


3. Nationalism and Discrimination of the local Filipino-Chinese (thanks to Mac)


4. U2's rock opera style


5. Me as a thesis tutor/adviser (helping out 5 students with their thesis) - the lessons that I would love to impart to them.


6. My overall design philosopy - Contextual Determinism


7. High School Stratification/Cliques


8. Class Lines in Manila


9. Love and Reality/Pragmatism


10. The Contradictions of Pluralist Ideology


11. China ! - The Country not the female wrestler


12. Religion/Faith - sects


13. Metropolitan Traffic in Manila


14. Dumbass, Good for nothing mayors... not to mention... really dumb legislation regarding MMDA.


15. Engineers vs. Lawyers... Doers vs. Talkers...


16. Architect - Client Relations... should architects just roll over for their client's desires and follies.


17. The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged - The correct definition of ego.


Obviously... I have a lot of things and ideas that I'd love to tackle... I hope to write about these things soon.
