inspirational chat, freshie opinion

today is discovery sydney day. i wondered why i woke up so early to attend the event because only a few members turned up. oh well, life carries on and there i was sitting with a total stranger from chocolate society whom is the president. actually i met him before and the last time we met, we were playing mahjong. haha.... kind of a coincidence. but come to think of it, today i did talk a lot. the more i talk to this guy, the more i felt he is really humble. multi talented and he just brushed aside as "it's not really that much" okay, the not really that much happens to be he played the violin, the piano and he is currently studying diploma for the piano. he is studying international studies plus law degree and he tutors part time for mathematical studies. additionally, he is the pres for chocolate society. a lot of things at hand, don't you think?

somehow, i feel very cacat because the people around are really striving their best to excel in this society while i kinda still floating around, thinking what should i do after my degree. hmmmm.... i am not comparing, for goodness sake, sometimes i feel that i have not given my best to push myself further. take for example, i was literally finding jobs since i was like in year 1 itself but the only job i been through was the kitchen hand/waiter which pays shit and i was fired for being not quick enough. what...... luckily, there is this girl who told me, don't work there, it doesn't deserve that little pay. i somehow agree.

to top it of, this girl i was talking to was pretty amazing herself. if i were her, i will feel like i have done a lot of awesome things in life. she has just completed her internship in Chile for a company whose vision that believes that venture capitalist provides better than any entrepreneurs and the company is for non-profit goal. what is venture capitalist again?

she was there to do modelling, statistics and stuffs. i was like wow..... i think my mouth must have opened pretty wide by then. this girl is actually very tough as the reason her dad allowed her to go to Chile was because she is going with a friend. And by week 2, her friend had to leave due to family matter and her dad was like convincing her to come back but she insisted her to stay. can you imagine like her dad even bribed her with an all expense paid europe trip for her just to come back and she said NO. speaks volume itself for her persistence. she is also very busy, tutoring and being an international student ambassador. and she promised to help me to look for a vacancy for that position if it happens to have one later on. Thank you! Should have known her earlier because she said she used to know the Head tutor for the tutor position i was applying last year. Cis, my chance just flew out like that. Oh, btw, she is also an Excel assistant for the university. Good to know her.

just talking to these two people makes me feel that maybe i should push myself harder. it's true. you are only young once, if you dun work hard now, when shall you do it?

blogger is thinking of getting is priority right again.

ps: it is kinda scary to note that earthquake in Japan is estimated to kill thousands of lives. i was hoping the post not too long ago about possible natural disasters will make things turn around because some people told me if you said it maybe the real things might not happen. perhaps not, my voice is not loud enough to stop them from happening. Be strong, nippon.
