Mistakes are a learning opportunity, and that's how you live a life.

I really like this post. It somehow boast up my spirit.

***

We are all afraid of making mistakes. Humiliation, embarrassment, censure and lots of other nasty things can come from simple or significant mistakes.

We would all love to be perfect and do it all right. However, life simply doesn’t work that way (if it does for you, please share your secret!). One person’s right can be another person’s wrong and the absolute pursuit of perfection can stress the body and mind to its limits.

So, should we all run out and purposefully screw something up? No, although, it might sound like fun once in a while. What we can try to do is not be fearful of making mistakes. We can take calculated risks and suppress our natural ability to be afraid to make mistakes.

Boston Trip

First working experience. Now I know how elder people work in the real world. I was told that my flight's at 7am. So I had to wake up at 4am, and get ready for the taxi at 5am. How crazy was that? And I slept at 1am on the night before, because I had to practice for my presentation.

The taxi guy was ok. Not a creeper thank god! So I arrived safely at the airport. To my surprise, the airport was full with people, rushing here and there. WOW. For god sake, it was 5.30 in the morning, and people are already awake, nicely suited up, and waiting patiently for their flight. Half of them was wearing suit.

Then, I was greeted by Justine, she's a new member too. So we chatted, and boarded the airplane together. It was so effing small! Because I compared it with MAS, i guess. lol Yeah it should be small, coz it's domestic flight. Ade 2 org flight attendance jeeee. Haha mann it was small!

Then, smpai Boston, hang out sblm Chrissy picked us up at the airport.Meet with few other people, and then headed to Babson College for a Food Trade Fair! Basically, what we have to do is to get all the students and faculties members to taste all the food(more than 50s) and ranked them. And at the same time, we explained what are these for. We handed them a survey sheet, walked around, and got to eat all the food! Oh heaven.

Babson College





After that, around 2pm or so, we went to the meeting room for for ice breaking session, and to meet the companies associated with our company. I cant tell coz its a secret. lol

Anyway, later that evening, we had a cocktail dinner, like, they served dinner while we're standing and chatting, so that we could mingle around and say hi to people.

Then Bbbbaaaaalik hotel. OMGbest gile hotel, sorg2 dpt katil Kings size. Heaven ok. I had a roommate. Baik la die tu. We have a lot of things in common, and she's Asian too ;P



So the next day continue with other programs. So we had this activity where we had to brainstorm ideas and present it to the management team. Dalam kumpulan aku ade sorg ni dia ckp banyak sgt. Rasa nak pelempang pon ada. You know right, your words represent you. Dia suka bertelagah ttg benda2 kecik yg remeh temeh. Dah la masa ada tiga jam je, pasal satu ayat yg dia x paham, boleh plak dia komen smpai 30 minit. ape hal!So takpelah. Actually semua ni ade lah pertandingan. So the winner will receive 2 bamboo sticks, 2 Notebooks and 2 Flip Camera. Ahhhh aku xmenang. Skit lg je nak menang. Tapi xpelah, there's always next time :P Basically, what we do was we suggested menu ideas, brainstormed dining promotions, gave feedback to vendors about their food.





After the whole events, they brought us jalan-jalan around Boston. The view was nice, as almost as nice as NY skyline, but yeah, ours is better. lol We went to Faneuil Hall and dined there. There are tones of restaurants to choose from, and plus we got free coupons, which means free dinner. Honestly, I just paid $4(for a fridge magnet) for the whole trip! How awesome is that!







The next day(Sunday) was the last day. The final talk was given by the head of IT team from the company. He explained to us about the new device that they are currently working on which is pretty cool for college student to maximize their dining experience. Right after his talk, I was called to give a presentation about my dining hall. Actually, they decided to cancel this slot, afraid of the time constraint. But fortunately we had enough time. I think that I didnt talk much during those events(still trying to mix in), and because of that, Im afraid that they don't see a potential in me. So that night after those events, I went to see the head of the program, and I said I wanted to present about my dining hall. He was kinda surprised, because no one ever asked for a presentation before. SO he said yes. I was overwhelmed. So when he called my name, I was ready to make my manager proud of me. So I presented it the best I could, and to my surprise, the crowd enjoyed my presentation. They were laughing and asking questions! Ommmyyyyy. I love them :)








Then, after the photo session, everyone was ready to go back :)

Up and down, right and left.



Im going to Boston this Friday. Gahaha. Staying in Marriot Hotel with an assigned roommate. I'm excited but at the same time, got butterflies in my stomach. Yeah, it's going to be my first time to give presentation in front of a group of 40 completely strangers, and some of them has a title. Gahhh.. And I havent finish my presentation yet. Compiling all the information together is such a pain. And I need to practice. Practice and practice to make it purrrrfect. My brother can do it, why can't I?Rightt?
Ah I will do better than him =P

I wanna take Winter Intersession what do you think? The class will be done in 2 weeks. Class from 10am to 12pm. Rest then continue from 1pm to 3pm. Sounds like a torture, but I dont know. What do you think? Im gonna retake Cal 1. It's not like I failed it or something, I just wanna to improve the grade. But I might miss ski/snowboard trip(if they gonna have one). Yo I suck at ski. I wanna try sbowboard later. They said it's easier. I hope so.

The weather is killing me. It's so cold, like it almost winter. And addition to that, it rain every day. I need to get a new coat. T_T

Failure is definitely an option. When you decided, thats it, you cant do it anymore, just take a deep breath and chill out for a sec. Everything will come back to your senses. Hang on a little while. Everyone has ups and downs, so what if today you're down. Hope is still there, and by the end of the day, everybody will forget like it never happen. Hah!
