This site began humbly in September 2002 somewhat inspired by Natinski‘s diaryland site.

Finding a title is always hard for any piece of creative writing but after a couple of days of sleepless nights, I decided upon “Perpetual Permutating Perceptions” or its french translation “Les Perceptions Perpétuellement Permutantes”.

The site had undergone various cosmetic and software changes and as such some older post may not seem to fit the current template.

Initially started from blogger, PPP (as it was also know as) moved to lunarpages with movable type and later (till now) migrated to wordpress.

Why “Perpetual Permutating Perceptions”?

Leonardo da Vinci said that “All Our Knowledge have Their Origins in Our Perceptions”; and life through our many experiences always manages to change or reinforce our perceptions towards anything.

The site is to collate my perceptions and experiences and to share them with the rest of the world.

Hopefully as more perceptions and experiences collide (through comments of course!), all of us can learn something from one another.

Enough about the site, here’s something about me:

Wannabe thinker, philosopher, wants to retire by the age of 35 so that he can travel, read, write, take more photos, coffee and eat all he wants, without the need to ever work again.

I also think I am overweight, desperately seeking the slimmer me that what once was.

The problem is I indulge in things that make me go wider and not enough indulgence in the things that make me go in the opposite direction.

Yes, I am an Arsenal fanatic and I speak french and a smattering of spanish and russian (A friend told me women love men who are multilingual)

On a more serious note, you can mouse over to http://www.sharizal.net to have a glimpse of my thoughts.

I am *still* working on my first novel (since November 2005 – yes I am shameless).
