new year, new goals

I haven't really been up to writing or anything lately...I haven't had the chance to slow down and breathe for a long long long time, not even during the Christmas break. There was always something to do. And then, there was the cool weather. That also made me a little bit more sluggish than normal. hehehehe

With the new year going (and the Chinese New Year just around the corner), I'd like to make a few notes to myself about what I want to accomplish this year.
1. MBA applications - What happened to those? hahaha I still haven't pushed through with my MBA applications and most importantly, taking the GMAT. I've always feared rejection and I think it's time to make the leap. Well, have to be well prepared before I actually do that though. So, I'm going to start reviewing.

2. Have more courage to express myself - I've always had trouble doing this. Although I am better at writing down my feelings than saying it out loud. But either way, I still suck at self expression. I need to learn to stand up, take a stand rather, and let the world know what I think, and not just say "Yes" to everything.

I really like this quote from U.S. Pres. Barack Obama,"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." This quote is going to be my new inspiration to work harder, be stronger, live more, love more and laugh more.
