[so many things]
where to start. okay. firstly FRS is over. feeling a great sense of accomplishment. i was in it all the way. gave my decent share of work, though i definitely bit off more than i could decently chew. then again, guess i probably learnt more that way. definitely learnt a thing or two about how the people around me work, their priorities and such.
reading this book called "Path of Least Resistance". its seriously goodstuff. so much truth in it. each chapter i read, i keep going "yeah isn't that how things are in my life rite now?". trying my best to read the entire book and possibly get myself out of this reactive-responsive situation, as they describe it in the book.
and i'm wondering. how did people like mahatma gandhi, einstein live such great lives? did they read self help books too? or did the situations in their life just add up to wad they became? are geniuses, prodigies and masterful spirits born or are they created?
went for my 1st driving lesson yest. it was really nice. finally lived out my dream of driving a car. unlike all the traumatic dreams i've had of driving from my house to my grandma's without and license and with like miniature steering wheels and other traumatic stuff. i realised that in driving u must be gungho but not jingo. u must be calm yet confident and decisive in your actions. the sensitivity of the pedals and yet the shaking of the car when biting occurs. ahhhh... its like falling in love all over again.
my dreams of driving an elise. someday. i want to be able to drive something. if there's one material possession i want, its to own a car that takes your breath away.
