A New Decade

You know, I could be a lot like other bloggers and write about the past and the future and make that list of resolutions.  But I think, "nah..." as I set this post to automatically publish itself at midnight.

I will not make a list of unrealistic resolutions (such as losing 20 pounds fast); the only thing I will follow is to keep moving forward with the flow and get things done in my capacity.  I have matured to take personal responsibility for failures and not cry that such and such exam was hard or the prof was so "unfair" (thankfully, that has not happened at all ).

It is called having an internal locus of control and believing that there are circumstances in your life that are within your control.  Feeling helpless and blaming others is counter-productive and be grateful that in Canada, you have the freedom to do something about it.  I will get to where I want to be - I have never been so determined and inspired.

The past decade is gone now and I will cherish the good times.  I look forward (though with some worry) to a world transformed by 9/11, recession and unemployment, climate change and extreme weather, natural disasters, nuclear escalation, and constant war.  China and India emerge and will soon become major players in the global economy.  And technology... well, it is growing at such a fast pace and being the gadget nerd I am, I will try to keep up with the pace.  :P
