不是又想寫不開心的東西，而是不開心的時候，我通常想寫作。
今日和朋友聊起，畢業後可以做什麼？最好還是去教持續進修學院，但人工不是太高。根本可能比一個'執留灘'的中學教師還低，這些人香港多的是，資源錯放了。我沒有博士學位，好少大學會請。我讀了這麼多書，但竟不值 30K 嗎？那些攪 IT或做 banking的又憑什麽可以賺這麽錢？我頓時很担心自己的前途。這些年來，兜兜轉轉，思路還是不通，尚放不開。我值錢嗎？究竟是怎麽衡量？如果我一畢業去做廣告或 fashion，今日應該會很好麼？
Jason 說七月會跟Esther Cheung去Glasglow出席一個學術會議，主持一個關於City 及Film 的Panel。很羨慕。為何我這兩年內的mentorship是近乎零？由開頭很有熱誠到現在什麽也不在乎。我只好默默在家裡寫東西，把論文趕快完成就是了。
Yuan Yang 出了，很想送一本給Rosina，但她今天不在office。我只想給她知道她的學生不只是一個普通教師這麽簡單。
早幾天去了中環Aesop買handcream，那個女Sales問我做那一行，我說我正在讀書，做freelance editor 和教書。她開玩笑說: '誤人子弟！' 我最討厭D人說這句說話給我聽。後生點就不懂教書麽？真想告訴她D 10A生也是我教出來的。算吧！嘥9氣。
很想吃點甜的東西去冲喜一下, San Francisco Steak House 的 Baked Alaska 就是了。

who tells you there's an equal sign between study and money? who tells you how much you want equals to how much you worth?
there's no absolute answer to definite unknowns
for there's no limitation in one's mindset to the ultimate
know who you are
believe in who you are
admit who you are not
elevate to whom you want you to be
Haha. It's weird to respond to my biological sister here. Anyway, well, I've held my faith but I gradually found that maybe the notion of 'worthiness' is quite meaningless. How much is a person worth? And what could you do if you are less worthy than what you think you are. It's tough question. There're not too many who can hold onto it, unless they're already financially secured in some sorts of ways. For us, we have to admit that we're not one of those. While facing this fact and still evaluating ourselves in high regards, we grumble. That's all we could do - at least for me la.
dearrr
i thought the same when i graduated (which was some years ago already! T-T), so i took a 1-year masters course instead of 2, thinking, i will be too old to get start in my career. thou i didnt know what i was going to do! i thought of working as a fashion editor when I graduated but I didnt and I ended up in the industry, just in another role! You can never tell what you are going to be and you can only believe in yourself and your strengths.
and yes i agree with your sister. work has nothing to do with what you did at school. and sure nothing guarantees any money return, either (or even, job satisfaction - hell with it! I am telling you for years I have been in my so-called career, job satisfaction has been LONG gone!).
This is not being grey. I am just lucky to know what I want and what I could have and go from there. That's just what I wrote in my blog. You might just don't believe in, God has his best plan - I am no Catholic but I do believe there's something to do with destiny. You just have to know your part and do your part right. Worry doesnt help and would actually drag you down.
Viva la positive power!
you are already quite talented. Should be more confident!
While I don't think i have much mentorship as well.
Nich, just be true to yourself and you'll know what you're going to do next. You have your own talents. Please believe in yourself.
Wish you all the best.
Thanks for your words, Ed. But may I know who you are???
Sorry Nich, as it's a bit awkward. You don't know me actually. I came across your blog some days ago, and your words got my attention. Reading your blog is quite interesting. :)
Happy to know you, and wish you a good day ~
