For close to a year, I have had dreamless sleep, which is unusual if you know me.  The night before, out of nowhere, Cynthia was conversing to me in purely Bahasa Indonesia.  I suppose once in a while, we have this innate desire to feel closer to our mother tongue.  I tried to hold a [...]

This is my first field trip and our mission is clear: To secure the underground area next to the university.  There has been disturbance inside the dungeon of tunnels made of steel, as reported.  The robots do not normally venture so close into our civilization.  We wonder what prompts the encroachment.  Low in resource within [...]

There are different shades of gray, from the floor to the walls to the ceiling overhung with bright spotlights.  Well polished and wide open space, the kind of prestigious corporate working environment that is so commonly seen in almost every movie, in almost all our dreams – be it as a real dream like mine [...]

May 1 – Somewhere in my Dreamland – Day I gather that I must be a small fry inside a battle ship.  It does not take long for me to realize that my work revolves around cleaning and filing.  A kind of small fry that everyone knows (when they need something) yet nobody sees (when [...]

I woke up, which ironically was exactly when I fell asleep in reality, and I was dressed in my dark executive suit, white shirt, with a pair of dark trousers.  Somehow, I knew today was supposed to be an important day.  There was this sense of anticipation as my front door open.  And I remembered.  Today [...]
