Day 6 & 7

The sickness has almost gone now. Good stuff. Had the last Board of Directors Meeting for the old members, and kinda felt like the Office Finale. It had been a wonderful year, but there were much more that could have been done. Having said that, I have an ambitious project, well, couple of them planned for the summer, so I will stick around the CUS, not serving it, but consulting, possibly. Thursday ended with great pho with couple of friends, and X-Large has never been a good choice, I was right again. The problem is the soup, not the noodle. Friday started with me just chilling, taking away some heat from the compressed four-day exam heck. Finished with a fresh new hair cut which was nice. And that leads to my key takeaways:

1. What you want to do and who you want to be is always changing, at least when you are young and have less clue to what you REALLY want to do in life. Remember that changing is good, but be caution because it may not be right. Always test the water before you make a cannon ball.

2. We live because we have been living. However, the purpose may not be keep living the way it was, doing the things merely making us happy. There must be a higher meaning. Realize it before you hit mid life crisis, or having to teach another human being how to find it. It’s never too late.

3. I have been watching the Office lately, so: “I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good old days before you’ve actually left them.” -Andy Bernard. Live every second as if it is part of your ‘good old days’, so you will never miss it. Instead, you will only treasure it.

4. Simplicity is key. It doesn’t mean you have to give up creativity. The hardest and best part is to gather both, put them in a jar, and watch the reaction.

5. Nothing beats Sour Worms. Except more Sour Worms.

6. Press charges on your phone is the only way to prevent it from dying.

7. Ignore people who s*** talks you; gossips, rumors…whatever. Remember, you are not running away, but you are seeing the truth. The truth is that people feel insecure when they starts to speak lowly of you. Don’t you feel pity of them? If you have done nothing wrong, then just move on and feel sorry for those poor, misguided, and confused ones. Tolerance is a strength, not weakness.

8. Explore, probe, and discover. Walk in to that store you always walk past by. Take a good look at the neighbourhood you grew up in, again and again. Rediscover people that you have known for years, but never get to know them. Everything changes. Realize that fact, and try to understand.

That’s all for now. Back to work.
