Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself. That is why some people with mediocre talent, but with great inner drive, go much further than people with vastly superior talent.

Thanks for the quote, Calvin.

The only difference between a good day and a bad day is your ATTITUDE!

Thanks Mommy Yhe, I couldn’t agree more.  What do you think? (more…)

I used to write about how much my dad and I chat over at YM.  We chat almost everyday.  I love the way he would still remind me to pray and and to take care of myself and Elise always.  And he never fails to tell me that he loves me.

Yes, he’s that kind of that dad.  Just like Randy Pausch, the author of The Last Lecture,  I felt like I won the parent lottery.

Anyway, I just like to share with you what my dad told me this evening.  I know it may be long, but I hope you guys will take time to read it.  (more…)

Got a nice forwarded text message from an old classmate today. He thinks I should take it easy. Yeah…why not, right? *wink*

Thanks, Bunny Boy!

I don’t know where they got this but I saw this on the wall while I was filing for my lost card at the bank this afternoon. Very, very timely for me.

He who controls others may be powerful,
but he how has mastered himself is mightier still.

Nice, right?

So to all my co-workers who are leaving for the 2-day outing tomorrow, have a great time you guys!

Experience is a hard (brutal) teacher because she gives the test first, then the lesson afterwards.

Ouch! :_(
