It's been a while since I wrote, and due to a good night's sleep, am in the mood for some reflection. The year is about to end, and I am not so anxious anymore. Whichever way the wind blows, I know that I will be doing something worthwhile, like what Raju of the movie 3 Idiots said. It has been a nice chat with Dana because somehow, our sentiments are similar.

I cannot say that I know for certain what the tides will be for next year, but I can certainly say that I will not stay in this place. It's not that I did not enjoy its perks, but this past year definitely made me realize that I do not want to be a scientist. And I am excited for prospects next year.

I like how Paco said something about how the sincerity of long term advocacies will eventually show in the long run. It affirms by current twitchy state of mind. Do I play around with these thoughts and pursue academic degrees for issues I have been exposed to, or do I strategically think about how I can maximize my time to get millions before I reach thirty? If I pursue my advocacies, will they benefit me in the long run? Will the world recognize my sincerity and help me inch towards my goals?

I smell the freedom of freshly-mowed grass, and I am excited.
