Recently, I listened to Steve Jobs’ commencement speech at Stanford University graduation in 2005 again. I have listened to that speech many times, yet I still find it inspiring. (Some of my friends think that I’m such a Steve Jobs worshiper, oh well, I respect him with all his unique past ~ you’ll find different him by reading some books about him or watching “Pirates of the Silicon Valley”). Anyway, in this post in relation to my recent experience, I’d like to […]

Finding myself within books
(note: recently I had quite a long break from work, clearing my leave) It’s nice to be back at home, although I can’t sleep the first few days because apparently I’m so used to with my current pillow.

Excited When you’re going to some new places, you will feel so good, not even think about anything bad. Basically you just want to have some fun there. Well..

random thought of the day I never have a permanent hair dresser if I compared to my friend who always goes to the same hairdresser. So, I have different experiences with different people. Some of the them simply listens to my requests, while others give their opinion. When I relate this to myself as professional, here is what I can learn from them:
