Day 3: I'll soldier on! Mai mee pan Ha!

Woke up at noon today. Decided to work out at 6.30 and asked mom to prepare dinner at 4.30p.m to 5p.m. Probably going to play Basketball with the other guys downstairs and come home at 10p.m. What do I do in my meantime? Work towards The Goals of course!

Decided to get my Cirriculum Vitae done and improved. It is now updated with the results from my past six semesters and under the achievement section, I added "made it to the Academic Roll of Honours for AY07/08 semester 2". This will be sent to any prospective employer. I hope to start earning some money and carry on my plans for the future.

As I worked towards these goals, I remember another small target I set myself yesterday. That is to master speaking in Thai in 51 days. From tomorrow onwards, I will only be left with 49. I believe I can achieve my targets. Yesterday I could not even hold a conversation in Thai with those people I met in the chatroom, I think it got better today. Lets see weather I can recap what I have learnt...

Hmmm.... my compilation so far. If I master all these I should be able to have a decent chat with a stranger. Besides learning thai and finishing up my Cirriculum vitae, I also wanted to work out in the evening so I had a 4.30p.m dinner. Tonight work-out was one of the best I ever had so far. I cant be stopped. Whenever I wanted the ball in the basket, the ball gets in the basket. It felt good to play well. The experience of having shots go in one after another was unbelievable. The weight and responsibility of getting points for the team rested on my shoulders and the responsibilities felt good.

Came back home, had a little snack of fish soup, typed this Blog entry. I think Im done for the day. God please bless me. Give me the courage to carry on with life.
