The truth about me is that, when I feel that I am a natural with some things, I let myself flourish with it. But another thing about me is that, when I get interested with something, find fascination and meaning in it, and learn that I actually am bad at doing it, I don’t give up. My frustration challenges me further even if it takes me to take on the steep learning curve.

Let me backtrack during my highschool-college crisis. I was really really bad with math way back, blame it on a bad foundation starting 1st year highschool. Come senior year in highschool, an amazing teacher made me look at math otherwise and I saw myself improving in it. I found math fascinating because it was such an exact science and it was used way back during the ancient times by the Sumerians. When I transferred to my chosen university, I was thinking hard on what course I should take. History was my first choice because I was wildly passionate about it during highschool ( remembering how I devoured books about Alexander the Great ), but then at the back of my mind, I wanted to give myself a chance to study math, and get to appreciate it for real. I chose Economics.

A key signifies the our power of making decisions. Keys are used to open doors, trying to unlock something and revealing surprises and new stuff, and even locking some doors. One can always choose the doors he/she could open, because one is to be held responsible for whatever happens – be it good and bad. The key, the decision-making power of everyone, is a powerful tool that must be well thought of before doing it.

This year, I’ve used my “key” more than I have ever did in my entire life. This year was a big year of change for me as I used my key to open doors, experience new adventures, meet new people, expand my horizons, and tap into foreign territory. I’ve also admittedly used my key without thinking a few times that led my emotions to fluctuate and lead to regret. But hey, regrets are nightmares of the heart that are better let go of than clutched in the chest. So , better yet, experience, may it be good or bad, must be well-remembered. Good experience should be used to treasure and be a driving force to look forward and enjoy life, and bad experience should be lessons learned, as life is a teacher that teaches not from lectures beforehand, but after events occur.

The year 2007 was definitely a year of change, or maybe coming of age for me as I was able to experience alot of new stuff that I’ve never dreamed of.

I think I broke the record on my shortest sleep ever, which occurred last Friday – a whopping two hours! I’ve never appreciated my adrenaline rush until Saturday that helped me function just fine!

After two days worth of sleepless nights, nonstop makeovers and selling mineral makeup, and eating NY Fries for lunch, I’m finally smiling! I’ll probably drift to sleep in a bit, but I’ll be smiling in my sleep! Read the rest of this entry »
