8/6/2023 - Mimi’s Diary

I've been hanging out in the LAS room for almost six months now, and I don't really know what to do next.

I feel like I don't want to share with people anymore because I've reached a limit in my relationships. A limit of interference and overexposure.

I regret not doing more things earlier, like studying abroad. I don't understand how, as someone who's always in the middle of the swimming pool, I have to spend so much time catching up with those at the top instead of practicing to achieve things that are more suitable for me.

Today, I registered for an account to apply for a master's program in the Netherlands. Actually, I dream big. I want to get an EM scholarship, I want to study at top schools, etc., but it will require a lot of time and focus. I'm still waiting for information from AAS, even though I know I'll be rejected from the preliminary round. I even applied for MAECI.

I'm still practicing my writing, feeling optimistic. Practice makes perfect. In addition, I have new perspectives on speaking. Maybe I need to focus more on questions from others and I need to react quickly. I'm naturally slow to react, haha.

Only a few more days until I say goodbye to the LAS room. I still need to move on, improve myself, skills, to earn more money, to prepare for studying abroad.

To earn money, I have to work hard. I need to sell better, focus on promoting my tailoring shop. Try to get a high IELTS score to train others.

Oh, from tomorrow, I'll pay attention to people's conversations to take notes and find the style of everyday speaking.

Alright, I'm going to bed now.

Never repeat other people's mistakes

I went to an old bookstore this morning to look for props for my next video in the series Circle of life by Ming . And guess what, I learned another lesson about running my business. For what I have always been trying, everything I do in this series is all real so I always I want to prioritize the spirit of experiencing life. There are plenty of things that I have never done before at the age of 26, counted as little things like walking in an old bookstore I have seen several times or simply eating a bowl of pork organ congee. The moment I landed my feet on the ground of the bookstore, there was an unspeakable euphoria of wisdom rising up inside of my soul because I knew, the voice of the creator wanted me to get there today and he had already checked the task saying mission completed on his checklist for me to achieve it. I like the atmosphere that hung over this old bookstore. What appealing enough was stacks of books embodying classes of generations which were neatly packe...

MY WORK HISTORY

MY WORK HISTORY According to the to-do list that I made some days before, the second entry below that of taking the IELTS test is job hunting , that's the reason why I write about this topic today. In this post, I'm going to write about my childhood dreams, jobs that I used to experience in the past and my career aspiration for a better future. My childhood dreams I'm nothing special. At least that is what I have realized at the age of 26, but winding the timeline back nearly 20 years, I really knew nothing, I didn't see the truths about us, humans, about how tiny we are compared to the universe. I thought I was special and unique and I would become someone important some days, someone really really great. I had dreamed of becoming a prime minister, a writer, a journalist or an English teacher. I did make it in some fields and still, what I haven't achieved gradually diminished along with the devastation that the adult world has caused to me. My choices An...

A strange dream

Last night I had a really strange dream. I could say that it was a story told in flashback of what had happened and it also predicted a little bit about the near future. It was a story about stages of my life, some had passed some are still beyond my anticipation, but I have faith, it's the only thing I know by now. I have realized many other significant things after being sent this dream, that faith remains inside everyone of us without our knowing because we don't actually believe in simple things such as love, faith and dream. We know the words but we are not fully aware of them, of their true meanings which are still hidden under a thick layer of mortal soil. I was in my classroom with a lot of students, I guess they were my classmates. We had an assignment to do and we had to work in a small group of three. I was with two friends, one was my college's classmate and the other was from my secondary school, we collaborated with each other to do the task but we didn...
