to me myself and i

2013-03-22 10:00 a.m.

so im back here again.

yes, still on bloody internship.

still bored.

but more and more and MOREEEE tired.

argh.

the end of hong kong didn't exactly bring any real respite to the body.

in fact im trying to practice more and moreeeee now. its insaneeee.

well if i really must say what happened in hong kong (of course i dont. but its MY BLOG SO I'D SAY WHAT I WANT). it didn't really go as expected (then again what does?).

the breakthrough wasn't QUITE a breakthrough - not in my own biased personal opinion anyway (how can my personal opinion about myself be objective??) - but the good thing was i came back feeling...a LOT more lacking than i did before i went!

which is....a good thing?

well it sure doesn't feel like.

but better to feel lacking than to feel overly whole and complete and confident and not work harder, i suppose!

afterall we must keep the end goal in sight musnt we, old wrinkly self?

and the end goal is to become......like THIS!

one day old wrinkly self, i will dance like that!

well maybe not EXACTLY like that. but as close as possible!

there is no point setting nearer, less lofty markers with such an awesome ultimate goal in sight.

nor is there a point in becoming too pleased with myself (heh) with current progress, or current 'labels', or comparisons with measly asians. where do the asians stand in the global salsa scene?

as the awkward scrawny yellow ones with delusions of grandeur and no visible chance of getting anywhere or winning anything, that's where.

so, old wrinkly me, we must not be constrained by the boundaries of our color!

we must look to infinity and beyond!

we will not be asian in any way except physically!

mentally, we will be sharp and shrewd as...the race which is sharp and shrewd!

spiritually, we will be driven and ambitious as...

well i really can't think of a race or particular culture known for being driven and ambitious.

i dont think there is one!

so never mind, we will be driven and ambitious as the most driven and ambitious person we know....

drumroll please....










OURSELVES!!!!!!

yay big round of applause *clap clap*.

we are the most driven and ambitious people we know!

(but that's probably cause we don't know that many people. and are surrounded by the happy and contented and ignorant.)

'tis the discontented ones who are the most scrappy.


well this was all just a very good motivational pep talk to me myself and i.

but i really must get back to work.

harhar who am i kidding.

i really need to use the toilet and i don't feel secure leaving this window hanging open on my work laptop like that.

so ta-ta now, till the next time i blog for whatever reason!


summer & winter
