No rest for the weary.
Just came back from celebrating the 'death of artemis cohort' (a.k.a. my class). It's currently 3:35am in the morning, and i have learnt how to deal with less sleep. So, for those of you who have a position in their company, that thinks I can fit the mold of the ability to work with people from different background, be it fieldwise, locally, or internationally, please let me know and I'll pass my resume to your HR.
Module a/2nd Semester is finally over today, or should i say yesterday at 7:30pm? I'm going to miss my class as I have grown and learnt a lot from them (about 50+students) and also my team mates. Now, the Artemis and the Apollo cohorts will ceast to exist by next week, so not only will I have to deal with different team (from different countries, again), I have to deal with learning with probably a different cohort environment.
For those who don't know, which i'm sure most of you guys don't know, apparently the 2 classes/cohorts that I have for my batch have different personality. I think I have/had a great cohort (artemis) and I'm going to miss them when we're going to module B (3rd semester) as the school board will mix everyone up and create 2 new cohorts.
I AM going to miss my cohort and teammates. But then again, the whole idea is to learn how to cope with working with different teams from different personalities and different background, right? I am trying to learn really hard how to get out from my comfort zone. After all, according to the "Who moved my Cheese?" book a few years back, the whole idea is not to fall into the trap of staying within your comfort zone, right?
Which comes to my next point, is it possible for me to act like the "Legally Blond" movie? Is it okay to be diifferent and still be able to change the world, or at least die trying like what all the CSR companies (genuine startups at first) did earlier on?Despite the negativism/sceptism of some of my 'more mature' classmates, I hope I can make a difference.
i don't want to 'lead a normal typical life'. I want to know that my life has a purpose on this earth. I want to make a change without getting influenced/discouraged from others who tried and got burned along the way.

and you'll know what I mean.
at least I die trying vs. guessing all my life if only i...?
Can I make my dreams come true?
