my horoscope today reads:Sometimes the trappings of success don't make you feel successful -- they make you feel stressed out. You're not like everyone else. You may just have different standards for success. Learn what makes you happy.
still trying to figure through the last line but the first does hit the cord at the moment. the first of the 3 hell weeks is just concluded today but i'm not where near estatic, satisfied nor motivated. in fact i'm actually feeling a wave of disappointment for not having done better..
maybe the grey matter up there's just to accustomed to whirling one i haven't caught up with the emotional and physical balance yet..something just feels not right *frustrated*

cass's bro won the subaru contest this week, but what was really fascinating was what she told joel yest abt the value of money to "people like (her)"..it's amazing how there's still such distinct differences in monetary value influenced by one's upbringing. but at least they both seem to have striked a balance in their opinion, their financial resources and their lifestyle. compared to both i seem to still have difficulty even determining what the dollar means..

prof asked us yesterday if any of us "budding entrepreneurs" were involved in any community based programmes that value added to the society - n o n e -
so much for all the aces in bgs and ethics and community service hours
at the end of the day social services aint really most ppl's ultimate choice cup of tea
maybe its really time to practise what i preached in those d2d proposals..which is one reason why cora's never stopped impressing me with her involvement at changi prison and yrp..her intrinsic motivation is truly an inspiration..
