It's been like this quiet for quite a period, I mean, saturday night, staying home. The only difference is there is no fuzz inside of me about party and having fun, which is a surprise! I actually sit down at Saturday night watching some TV, browsing some Internet and imagining to start up my own venture and not feeling bored. Yesterday I finally tuned up my guitar and practiced a Waltz section, which didn't quite turned out to be Waltz like-Havn't touched the string for so long and my finger kept getting stuck. I book-marked blogger long long time ago, let me think, why did I start blog account this late as of today? First of all, I was reviewing the Entreprenuerer Thought Leader seminar held at my department this quarter, yeah, once at Stanford, always thinking about the vivid memory. Talking about the memory, the most vivid one is still a b-day party I attended three and half years ago where a 6 foot plastic penis balloon toy was tossed all over that animal house, that night, I tried my first touch on that hot blonde psychology phd chick named..damn..can't remember her name anymore...anyways, that's some memory. Alex asked me to give him a call to hang out some other time instead of merely emailing each other, and also what I want to get out of the involvement with CSPA. Good questions, it's always good that one thinks about the reason s/he does one thing, I am going to let him know my rational. Arcadia Kim
, the development director for EA's game "two towers" really caught my attention late but big. She has been sticking with her dream on computer gaming all these years and she is obvious an overachiever type. I am kinda that type too, the only difference is I havn't figured out what to attach in my career besides being entreprenuer, even though I have never, will never be able to spell it correctly without turning to dictionary. How I came to blog tonight is still a question mark that I couldn't recall, the only thing I knew is I went to this "my harvard life" blog where the pictures were fresh, then I got distracted to the idea of home entertainment, such as digital picture frame and film digitizer. That probably took me an hour to figure out who can be contract manufacutrer, who can be OEM and how I can become a OEM in this field. Astoundingly, there is such a close matching between people's idea, in this case, mine was late but obviously a worthwhile commercial one. However you can't really start something fundamentally original, or at least not very easy, can you? Especially in the tech field, there are just so many brilliant minds around.

So, Am I happy? Well I was happy while being at Stanford, I enjoyed my time, never wanted to get out. I was extremely unhappy for my previous job. I am ok with my current one, but I know OK to me is actually not. I sense the mobility that will involve in my job. The sooner the better. I need to get busy, real busy. Give your imagination 10 minutes a day, that is what I suggested to DeAnza's college kids just a day ago, what about my own imagination, Did I give 10 mins? The important things are still understanding myself. Both Arcadia Kim and Steve Jurvetson stated how they got involved in their industry and have tons of fun. That would be my next immediate goal.
