Never regret

Never regret. If it's good, it's wonderful. If it's bad, it's experience. -- Victoria Holt.

Easily said, almost impossible to do, especially when a good portion of your life you want to re-live, not to enjoy the memory, but to do thiings over again.

For instance, I would not have wasted my time in Austin, waiting for my big break while slaving away and living like a second-class citizen in another person's bedroom.

I would not have bought this house that I'm struggling to make payment. Now I have recurring responsibilities, I cannot choose to just take a break for a month if I ever become unemployed, and I can't venture into unexplored area as freely as I'd really like to.

Mid-life crisis at the age of 27? I kid you not.

Well, they say difficulties works doubly well as motivation towards excellence. We'll see how it goes.

What do you want to forget in the year 2005?

Happy new year everybody.
