The best is yet to be..........

I never fail to amaze myself....
In this past year in grad sch.....
Performing feats that I never knew I was capable of....
Changing my thesis topic for 3 times......
Each time understanding an area all over again......
Each time under immense time pressure.......
And yet always being able to come up with something.....

Writing an IRB proposal in 2 days....
Yet to know if the project will be approved.....

Doing well in statistics and taking numerous stats modules.....
Each time without a clue if I really know what is going on.....

I have no idea what is next...... hopefully... just a peaceful normal grad life for the next year.. no more surprises.... no more last minute shocks.... please..... no more.......

歲月不繞人

機靈的歲月
蔓延進攻
選擇這必勝策略

機靈的歲月
不知不絕
後知後絕已無策

機靈的歲月
殘酷無情
不僅在表層留下痕跡

殘酷的歲月
無孔不入
清醒的時刻
它已佔居了心靈深處

真實感代替夢想
天真無邪已移居
疑心病乘機定居
多愁善感也來借居

以往的平衡莫名其妙被搖晃
在混淆之中尋尋覓覓
渴望再度的穩定
脆弱的心靈卻已在間中傷痕纍纍

An invitation to OD on Lee Hom!!!! haha... ;P

Changes made indeed.....

He has changed,
A sense of jadedness radiated from his every pore;
He has changed,
A look of weariness sculptured his now slim face;
He has changed,
Lines of wisdom gathered around the windows of his soul.

His powerful voice no longer reached the pinnacles of performance;
His reponses practiced and masked.

Under the bright sun,
A wondrous piece of art he remains,
Yet dulled by shadows of melancholia.

Are you out of your role?
I wondered,
Have the pressures of life conquered you?
I questioned,
Is it just my perception and oversensitivity?
I pondered,
Are my high expectations and perfectionistic streaks ruling me?
I reflected.

These questions of doubts shall never be answered,
For we belong to different worlds;
Distanced further than the length of the milkyway,
Where my worries and concerns shall never reach;
Never shall it be my role to interfere,
I can only hope to send you good wishes from my corner.

Wishing you all the best;
Anticipating the next powerful presence of your charisma, passion, creativity and energy!
