I Hate Holiday

I hate holiday. Every time holiday comes. It's a nightmare for me. I know it is fun to have holiday. You can rest at your home. Play some video games. Sleep throughout the day. Spend a lot of time in front of your computer. It's not like that I do not like these things, but a lot more fun things are happening outside holiday. 

At holiday, I barely meet my friends. Only when I ask the people out or someone arrange a meeting. It's just so sad that knowing I will be alone for a long long time. That's why I loved to set up meetings. It's just fun. Right until now, there are no technologies that can replace meeting communication. At meeting you can see a real living thing, face to face. You can see them smiling and we can talk, about a lot of things together. And moreover, you know that both of you are living together and that's the point. Laughing, Walking together. It's just priceless. Technologies are used for more effective communication, but the ecstatic feeling of meeting people, it cannot be replaced. 

We live in the world when communications are becoming more and more effective. My two cents are, never replace communication in forms of meeting people. You can send you feeling directly through it. Thank you and keep meeting.

Please Reply You Messages!

It is common for us to forgot to reply our messages. Emails, short messages,  or any other asynchronous chat. One day, one of my senior scold me for being passive in replying emails. That day, I learnt that replying messages as soon as possible is as important as replying you synchronous talk. 

I know you have no obligation to reply those messages, but it would be very nice if you respond quickly for something like that. You'll never know how urgent that the sender needs the reply. It is just social ethics. Even if it was one way message, it would be very helpful if you send confirmation. Does replying use time that much? If you ever in the situation that need the reply that fast, you will understand. Give yourself little time interruption for replying messages and I think you have done very good things to you people. It is one of the simple things that can make people smile. 

I myself have promised to reply any messages that come to me. I believe that my quick responses was very important and I want to give my best to every people unexceptionally. Good replying~.

Because It's More Fun

I know it should be funnier, but the context will be very wrong. The more I spend time in my life, I eventually realized that giving my life for the sake of others is more fun than trying hard for myself. It was very easy to content myself, it is more challenging to help others. 

Back in the day, I usually think about myself. How myself in five or ten years? What is the purpose of studying? How I could gain another achievement? It's always be like that. At the first time I entered college, the only thing in my mind is how to be successful like Bill gates, Larry Page, or Sergey Brin. Later on, through all of the experience at the college, I feel very hard to win people. It's easier to make people lose and abandoned than to make them better. 

After becoming a mentor and leader, I really understand the real difficulties to persuade people, to make people follow our mind and ideology. Of course it is so easy to make people mad, but the main point is not there. It is about sharing. It is not fun to smile alone. It is no fun to walk and achieve something just by yourself. Winning alone is like laughing by yourself. When you extend your mind into the sake of the other, that's the real fun begin. 

Seeing other people smiling because of our care is priceless.

Persistance

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.

Education will not. The world is full of educated derelicts.

Genius will not. Unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

Talent will not. Nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

I Failed

Sigh, It's been a while. I feel I was an utter failure now. My precious division get worse every day. It was a division of my campus fellowship. I was their previous leader. I love this fellowship. It gave me my vision. It gave me home to return. It gave me peace and serenity. I was carved in that fellowship and tried to to the same to the division. I tried very hard to maintain the situation of the division. A lot of new ideas and program is done and the fellowship itself was very close. We sometimes hand out together. :3

But then, Now, the situation changed unfathomably. My successor cannot even maintain my program. A lot of programs were failed and abandoned. We had a weekly meeting and the meeting was very rigid. We only talked about the weekly task, sharing some stories, our magazine, and go home. Is that a fellowship? We did not even talk each other. Asking their day. Spend some quality time together. This semester, we only hang out once. You tend to late on the meeting. You barely ask and maintain the Intermedia-ers. 

I just want to say. I'm sorry Intermedia. I'm sorry to you. I'm sorry Intermedia 2012 because all of you cannot feel the best of Intermedia. I feel very sad about this. In that case, I will not leave Intermedia. Not until I feel Intermedia is in good hands. This is the place where my heart is belong. I won't abandon it. God has given me all the good things here, at Intermedia and I will use it to it's maximum potential. Thank you.
