for the past few posts
i was super negative.
and then i went swimming with my sister yesterday
to do a little exercise and have a change of environment.
what i love about swimming
is that it's just so quiet in the water
and you can hear yourself think.
and the repeated swimming strokes are like a trance
which just made me relax.
and i was thinking.
i'm in the pool.
swimming.
there are also other swimmers around who are swimming faster than me.
but why do i care?
i have a place in the pool
and i can swim.
why the hell must i compare myself with them.
right?
and then it struck me.
this is my current situation in school now.
i already have a place in one of the top universities in the world.
so what if there are smarter people than me?
i still have a place for myself to explore my interests.
i'm still swimming.
and then i thought about my favorite phrase from one of my favorite cartoon, "Nemo".
Just Keep Swimming.
so that's what I'm going to do.
it sounds super lame like i should have done it at the starting of the week.
but hey, life is a journey :P
