I tink I am ugly... Haha... See my photo below... eeekkkss... Okie... Today my mum said something funny. The conversation is as follows (its not the exact words cos it was in chinese)

Mum: Last sunday, your dad drove pass your internship place lehz...
Me: Oh izzit?
Mum: Ya. How come your internship in FACTORY!!!!
Me: huh? its a factory mehz? No lahz.. its not...
Mum: But the whole area is like FACTORY!!! Why like that? You fail exam izzit? Thats why they send you to factory to do internship.
Me: No lahz... My grades are very good. Blame myself for not being as lucky as others and not as enthu as others to self source.
Mum: Aiyo... Then next time you also work in factory when you graduate?
Me: No lahz... Its not a factory. There for office one.
Mum: (in disbelief) Orh... Okie... You don't come home for lunch horz although its near our house... cos I can finally rest and not cook.

Haha... Its damn funny... Although my mum is illerate, she knows everything lahz. Haha... Oh wells... What can i say? Maybe next time I will really work in factory after I graduate. Who knows? Even now so many graduates are jobless. Life's hard lahz... haha... Borrow Abner's phrase. Haha...

That day, Abner said something which I think really makes sense. Its not a level playing field for all of us. Some people started to be cultivated for the future since young. Some people have parents who have vast networks. Some people like me was neither cultivated nor do my parents have vast networks. Hence, its not a level playing field. People belonging to the last category got to work doubly hard and still not attain the level that the people of the first two categories are at. Nevertheless, we should always believe in the age old saying - "its never too late to learn". Yes... I believe with enough determination we can learn and work towards greater heights like many others who started earlier than we did. Or perhaps, we should just be contended with the bear minimum and not aim so high since we did not start off from the higher ground like the others. This is what the chinese call 知足常乐. Haha... Alright enough about this negativity. I bet nobody likes to read this.

Alright. We gotta work hard. We gotta play hard. WE gotta live life to the fullest. Cheers. =]
