Success is measured by happiness
times seem to pass so quickly day by day. Deadlines are coming closer and closer.
i went to prof loh office to claim reemburisment for the poster yesterday, and he shared abt one hour telling moi stuff..
he was telling us how we shd approach everything in life.. presentation.. for i told him i was not actaully convince abt my FYP project myself.. seems like a phony jsut like everything else in the society.
watever the desicion made.. just stick with it... ride the WAves and enjoy the ride. simpliy weight ur priorites and go with the flow...
maybe it was easier for him to say tat.. cos he is awfully blessed with smart genes.
top student one lor.. MIT somemore..
maybe if i was that smart. i will be happier ...
but i cant be unhappy...
why?
1. i got a happy family
2. i got my dream
3. i got a roof over my head
4. i got nice friends
as much as i wish to regret upon my decision to enter and study chem eng, i really dont tink i need to...cos nobody will be certain wat lies in the alternate path on a diff timeline. i alwasy thought tat my spring time of youth will be better then if i enter the Special forces. thing will be different.
perhaps i will die from training...
perhaps i be happier maybe i be more miserable..
but one thhing is for sure. no one knoes exactly..
hmm.. didnt the military taught moi that ages ago? how come i forget this impt lesson? make do with wat u have.. cos teh bigger pic cant provide u with watever u requested for..
and dont compare.. teh more u compare the more dissatisfied u wil be..
i learn that once upon a time too..
nothing fair and nothing unfair.. u say it is unfair that u din are not born into the world driving a FArlaLA or a porche.. but then it is any fairer to the guy in the street on a hungry stomach?
i wish prof loh had shared that with moi during my early years in uni..perhaps i will see things from a diff light. basically uni lack the prof and student interaction.. teacher and mentor system.. tho the system is in place but do they realyl interaact?
i am happy tat at least my prof share with moi and guide moi along..tell moi stuff that the classroom din offer to teach.. unlike some of my frineds are totally ignored by their" hard to find" prof..
i see the same light i saw years ago, which was oscured by my incompetence and coulded by the ulginess of ppl..
the fire waits to burn even brighter after being dim for some time.
i cant wait to grad to do wat i am cut to do..
put the theory above to test and prove myself
and explore the deepering meaning to success
not measured by ur riches or ur status...
but the happniess from deep within.
anyone got a happy-meter?
with love
