Getting addicted...

At first, I was just searching for some new things in my life...
I wanted to loose weight...
I wanted to learn self-defense...
I wanted to learn taekwondo...
But fate's joke was on me...
I learned wu shu instead...
Thinking about my objectives...I'm achieving it...I think I've achieved it...
But my goals changed just in a nick of time...
I've become addicted...obsessed...
I want to learn more...
I want to do more...
I want to achieve more...
Now, I've re-aligned my life to suite my goals...
my goal now is not just losing weight and self-defense...
But I want to achieve something in my life while I can..
I'm now challenging my body to do what my mind wants to achieve...

I've watched a movie before entitled "My Big Love"...and it taught me 5 steps to a successful life...
1. Set your goals...you must set it for yourself..not for others...
2. Start Today...do not put things aside...there are no tomorrows for you to achieve your goals today....
3. There are no short cuts....you cannot achieve something grand in a perfect way if you don't persevere for it...you cannot be an expert if you don't begin as a novice...
4. Motivate yourself...there will be times that you want to give up because of the hardships in life...but, you cannot give up...the only thing you should do is try to remember why you are there and motivate yourself more to do it...
5. Be Happy...and this is the most important thing....you should be happy no matter what...because this is the only basis for you to say that all the hardships are all worthwhile...

This is my life teachings that I will forever remember...=)

My summer's Sweat...


The summer of 2010 was not that easy...
Summer classes must be taken...two subjects at school and a Wushu training to balance...
Speed is essential every friday...must run from practice to get to class...
Encountering many hardships to get good grades...
But deep inside, believing to pass it all is already at the palm of my hands...
Summer has ended...not knowing what's in store for the next season...
Got the grades now.....and the result was a delight...finally passing the subjects I took...
At first, being glad that I got such good grades and thinking being very lucky to have such generous professors...
However, the gossip crawled and finally reached the ears...only 5 passed in the class, I included...and no one got such high grades like mine...
Now, my perception changed..i was very lucky to have a professor who is a slave driver and give us a lot of quizzes and really compute our grades...
Now I believe that I'm really good at this thing in my life, studying law...and I'm not just passing because of professor's compassion...But also, I have the knack of things in this road less traveled...my efforts were paid....my sweat is sweet...and I've redeemed myself!
