My Dream at the end of the road
Lately, I have been confused rather if i should follow money or follow what i really want to do. I want to be a musician and a chef. I know, weird combination, but that's not the issue here. My issue is that rather I should become a doctor for the money or become a conductor or a musician for my satisfaction. I would like to know what everyone else thinks. What will my dream at the end of the road look like?

Spring break starts this week.
Well, everybody knows we just had our break past week, but for me, my break started this week. During the spring break, I ate and sleep, ate and sleep, etc, because my car was broken, however this week, i had a hell of a week. This week there were two birthday partys. My friend and my cousin celebrated their birthday and had a party all day and all night. We went out and ate. After we ate, we came back and watched a game on TV. what game? must i say? SWEET 16~~~ We watched VCU play Florida. It was just an intense game. They were almost all time just one point away from each other. Who won? Note telling. =) I guess you should have watched the game. GO VCU! anyhow, this week was truly a break for me. =)

Best worst job ever.
My name is John and i work at a cleaners. I am 35 years old and i am in love with my job. Cleaning shirts, pants, suits and ties all day, everyday. Yes, I even work on Sundays so everything will be done in time on Monday. I started this job since i was 22. My parents retired and handed down the business to me. Ever since then, i threw away school and followed this path. There's not a single thing that i hate about this job. I love when i see the customers come in and leave with a huge smile in their faces, complementing what great job i have done. Also, i love to see the result of my hard effort. I have many customers who come in and tells me that they have been everywhere to get this stain out, but no cleaners could have done. That's when I get this challenge where i NEED to get it out, and it's my pride to get that stain out. 9 out of 10 i get it out, but other times, i just accept it and learn from it, so that next time i can get it out. I also love hard labor. I sweat 7am in the morning when i open and don't stop until 7pm when i close. After all that hard work, it feels like i have done something today. I hate wasting my time, so earning money through hard work makes me feel proud and good at the end of the day. Well, this is my dream job and i am in completely in love with it. =)

Should it be Embarrassing?
As my FI class ended, I walked over to Franklin Street to take a survey for my Psych 101 class. I took it in 20minutes and headed to commons for lunch. On my way back, I saw a strange man doing weird..........movements? It was at the Monroe Park and there really was a guy acting "weird". I got closer and realize it was a student in my Psych 101 class. I guess he was practicing martial arts? He had a headphone on and was kicking forward. Because i happened to be a Taekwondo instructor, i realize he was trying to do a kick. Despite his kicks were horrible, I thought it was little embarrassing to be practicing martial arts in public. I am not ashamed of martial arts, but i thought practicing in public for everybody to see was just too weird. Is this something to be embarrassed of? Am i the only one thinking this way?

Do you ever regret in your life?
ah...this week has been extremely hard for me. I missed out on school a lot because I got into car accident. My 2011 Hyundai Sonata, I bought it last year and paid and still paying every monthly for it with my hard earned money, but now it is in repair shop. Sometimes, I say to myself, "Man, I am glad I bought this car", but when I got into car accident past week, I said, "Why the fuck did i buy a brand new car at my age?". I made mistakes and had regrets in my life, but i have to say, this is one of the biggest mistake of my life. How often do you regret about the things you have done in your life? Lately, I've been regretting a lot of things. I've been regretting why I didn't apply to better college, because for the rest of my life, i will never if i was smart enough to get into UVA or even MIT. I guess this is an vicious cycle. Once you start regretting about a big things, you start making a list of things you regret....or at least i am. sigh. -_-

Speech of a Harvard Student
I personally don't think there any good speeches. I think every speech can meaning differently to each unique person. To me, the best speech i ever heard was our school;s Valedictorian's speech during the graduation.
I don't really like speeches. I think it's boring, but not his. From the beginning to the end, I was completely hooked in. I guess what makes a good speech to me personally is a speech that has good meaning, but also funny at the same time. Our Valedictorian made into Harvard. Maybe that's why he was so good, but he kept his speech funny, interesting, and meaningful.
