  • So unproductive.
    Not just today, but throughout my life.

    20+ years on without anything significant done to schools I’ve attended, not to mention the world.
    Always feel that I owe my family + schools a hell lot, feel like a parasite

    I’m not a DGS-CLC-IC graduate for nothing
    I have to live up to the name of THE first Liyeung
    Dad gave me this honoured gift, he must have done it on purpose
    I’m not gonna bring shame on the whole future Liyeung family tree
    I’m destined to make a difference


    Wake up, liyeung, u’re yet another average, normal person
    Stop giving urself such unrealistic expectations
    Don’t be so insanely ambitious

  • Look,

    1/ if you’ve achieved “nothing” with all the zest for life and the dedication to passion that you’ve got… then you have relegated a large part of the rest of the world to redundance.
    2/ would you kindly delete the last part of the post because you are not being “insanely ambitious”.  It’s natural and it’s necessary to have in ourselves aspiration for things or even greater things than we can accomplish.  Always aspire to UPPER LIMITS, so that even if we slack a little :-p we still achieve a reasonable amount.
    3/ you ARE gifted, and very fortunate to have found a lot of those gifts already and have also happened to be hugely interested in them, so don’t you now talk about not being ambitious with what you have…

    pull yourself together and just get working man. hahahaaaa

    like i should.
    i did plan to wake up early, but as always I failed dismally

  • Agree very well with Jac’s comments, esp. no.3!!

    I agree very well with some of the things you said too…I do also think that I owe my family and the world a lot, I feel like I’ve been given so much and yet I’m not making the best use out of it; sometimes I feel ashamed even just from looking at all the properties I have (i.e. at this moment my laptop, my books, my room etc). Honestly, I truly think I am worse than you are, in terms of achievements (although I don’t have to bear the pressure of being the head of a family tree), but since I know different people have different standards, I’m not planning to argue with you which one of us is worse haha. Well, all I want is at least let you know that you are not the only one having feelings like that (unless I misinterpreted your feelings), and…so I’m also happy to know I’m not alone!

    And, perhaps my very last conclusion is: let’s work hard together to make the world nicer and the people happier, let’s begin by learning to become a good doctor together =D

  • 咁感慨既!

  • Ooooh

    Talkin about some ambitious Liyeungs here

  • Don t be silly….if you write a list of what you have done over the past years to all the schools the list will run forever lor..adn you call that ‘not contributing anything’???? besides…not every ‘contribution’ is quantitative….many actions cannot be specified but have changed lives of many…..

    dont be too harsh on yourself…take it slowly………with your talent..you will DEFINATELY gonna make a difference…adn reach your ambitions…

    (hmmm………..i know this msg is kindda late..u re prolly over you little emotional down la…;p)
