When sky is your limit, I won't stand in your way. Time heals wounds best. Let's work together towards our dreams.
Time flies. Last time writing journal was two months ago.
While people always say I am so mature at my age, I can only say I am just better at understanding others' needs. I realize how childish I am when handling pressure and I feel so relieved being with someone who can actually save me from mess. People say one would become more mature and they overcome obstacles they "think" they cannot overcome. I hope at one point of time I would truly become mature, with more and more and more experience and failing.
I was struggling between pursuing my dream -" to help people" and pursuing career in hospitality business. Struggle ended and I have decided to accumulate more experience in order to become "capable" of helping others. I kept asking myself : Do you have the commitment and courage to be an advocate? And the second question is advocate for what subject? I understand clearly that I am no longer a child and I have to bear responsibility for every decision I make. Passion is important. But how to put it into action is another matter.
Recently I decided to join a service trip to Cambodia which I have dreamed for a long time. I am strongly opposed to orphanage tourism and I felt sad that it become a gimmick for NGO to attract volunteers. This team aims at having a long-lasting impact which is what I opt for. The leader inspires me a lot. She is very genuine and passionate towards changing the desperate situation in Cambodia. At the same time we need to take care of ourselves and our families before we could give a helping hand. I believe at some point of time I could realize my dream
Only by understanding the pain people gone through could you provide assistance that suits them most. I have been reading this book and I realized I have far underestimated the pain and socioeconomic problems Cambodian was faced with.
When I grew older I treasure much more private space that I could gain new insights. I doubt this is good thing or not because I am in a business who loves extroverted people. Anyways this is the way I am. Sagittarius huh. Now I have decided to write a sentence or paragraph about what I gained everyday. AS A 2015 GOAL.

4. Bunch of Chinese hotel market development journals
5. 2015 global travel and meetings forecast
6. Field guide to human-centered design
