watched Olympic men's single,
Lee Chong wei vs. Lin Dan..
didnt watch the whole thing, just the second round..
Lin Dan won the game, felt dissapointed..
however, i will still be proud of u LCW,
as what the commentator said, LCW is the best badminton player of Msia ever..

This makes me realise something...
He wasn't the champion from the first day he was born..
he must have gone through lotsa obstacles, hard times to be who he is today..

"the wall is to show you how badly you want a thing" by Dr Randy Pausch from "the last lecture"
wall=obstacles in this context.
who never came across obstacles?
and when you encounter obstacles, what you do?
hide? face it? overcome it? or do nothing?

and when you do something,
do you actually think, how worth is it to do that thing?
is it a must to do? is that what you want to do?

I did something ridiculous today,something that i never expect myself to do..
and of course I didnt get the expected result i wanted to...
its just a minor part of life..the bonus of life...
is not essential, bonus makes your life a little bit better,
but without it you will still survive...
so maybe i should not hold on to it too much?
i have more important stuff to do!

i slacked over the weekend,
watched "溏心风暴之家好月圆"
12 episodes in a day....end up didnt do what i planned..
STUDY?where is the STUDY part?
regretted wasting my time...
but the drama is nice...i cried almost every episode... =.="
family...the love and bond among the family, the brothers and sisters really touched my heart..

well, its time to just let things go the way it should be..
things should happen naturally,maybe i shouldnt demand...
since i don't really know what i want...
the only thing i m sure i want is GOOD RESULTS...
i should just work hard on that...no time to think of other stuff...

Quoting:

"the wall is to show you how badly you want a thing" by Dr Randy Pausch

Before Yuan dynasty was formed, the great wall of China is already there. The reason as we have known for too well for the great wall to be there is simply as a wall of defense.

However, the decendents of the great Genkhis Khan figured that, if we could not breach the wall, we can "go around it"!

They marched on, taking the long path and ultimately taking down the Kingdom of Kim and breaking the stronghold of Song, China. They formed the Yuan dynasty.

I am just pondering, when we are faced with walls, going around them can be an option. This is not easy mean either, this is just another solution to life.

As we proceed with life, we will find that obstacles redefine themselves at every stage. In due course, it gives meaning to our journey. The essence of keeping up with these, is simply to have enough stamina, enthusiasm and dreams to keep pushing the limit.

Dr.Pausch did it till the end. The great Roosevelt stayed on work till his last breathe too. The past and the present never fail to remind us about how exciting we can make out of our lives :-)

In short, maintain the stamina and think of "creative" solutions for every obstacle.

cheers
