je m'appelle Roland

The voice of the people is the voice of God.

About Me

every day in my life is a blank sheet of paper, every person and event are all vividly written essays
i am very fascinated with etymology
and i am an only child
i'm so fluent with the "jeproks" linggo that sometimes you won't even understand what i'm saying
and i hate it when people put up "the finger" on photographs
I daydream during long walks
What interests you most in life? I rarely talk, but I enjoy philosophical conversations especially about religion. Through these I can freely express my thoughts and insights without hesitation, because there are no definite answers. And music of course. What kinds of music do you like? To me there are only two kinds. Good and bad music. But I mostly listen to rock, ska, reggae, and little bits of jazz and blues. Why do you like these kinds of music? Perhaps it’s because of my parents. While I was growing up, I was immersed in different kinds of good music, so I didn’t end up listening to just pop. What’s wrong with pop? It’s not the music that’s bad; it’s just that they’re played over and over. Wherever you go you hear it. Everyone knows the song. It’s not something special anymore. Unlike when you hear a very good but sadly very rare song, each time you hear it, you get goose bumps. Why did you choose to take up Mass Communications? Because I don’t know what to do with my life yet. Deep inside, I don’t want to work. Why don’t you want to work? So far, I’m not the type of person who can meet deadlines and keep schedules. Where will you get your money? Perhaps I’ll be a teacher. I don’t consider that work. I think I will enjoy teaching. What level will you teach? It can be either pre-school so I can do storytelling sessions, or college so I can challenge my students. If you choose college what classes do you want to teach? I can’t teach theology because all my students might loose faith in Christianity (laughs). I can teach literature or English. Or maybe algebra. Why algebra? It only takes a good teacher to make a student take interest in math. I want to make my students enjoy math, as if though it was just a game of logic. What will you do right after you graduate? Go to the beach and stay there for a month. I think that it will make a very good transition point for my life. After I graduate, my whole life is going to change. I believe that when you retreat, you come back as a new person. I wish to start out from scratch. What’s with the hair? Just looks cool. How do you define a successful life? If you make people laugh and feel good about themselves.
