For the last two or so years, I have been signed to various entertainment agencies here in Asia. It’s been a very interesting ride and I have learned many things along the way. I have released an official Mandopop album (now available on iTunes), appeared in a handful of television shows, and done many radio [...]
I have a problem.
Yes I will admit it. Perhaps you share the same problem…
What is my problem?
Committing to the end.
Now I am referring specifically to ambitions and ventures in life. In the past few years, I have created or delved in several projects, including the following:
Talkmatic.com – I started a podcast website with episodes [...]
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that don’t work.”
- Thomas Edison
One of my favorite quotes.
Earlier tonight, I was looking through some old files on my hard drive. Listening to some music that I wrote a long time ago and watching some videos of early dance performances. I’m not gonna lie. When I [...]
When I watch TV shows or films, I sometimes try to imagine myself in the roles of interesting characters. Ari Gold’s role in ‘Entourage’ is a great example.
I’m a big fan of the HBO series ‘Entourage’, I’ve watched pretty much every episode (and some more than a few times). If you’ve ever seen the show, [...]
I.E. ASS + U + ME = ASSUME
Assuming things is not good. Vocalizing the things you assume is even worse. I think it demonstrates a lack of maturity and also disrespect towards the victim. Unfortunately, I think that it is simply human instinct to assume things. And half the time, the things we assume turn [...]
Life is basically a game of Blackjack.
Oh no, here comes another Tony-has-gone-loco statement. But hear me out. These two days have been phenomenal for me (and potentially life-changing in ways). I just sat here for about ten minutes trying to think of the perfect analogy that can describe my present feelings. And the [...]
I’ve been doing some philosophi-zing recently. Here’s something I’ve been thinking about in reference to my future:
Should a person spend his / her life:
Pursuing something they suck at but want to become more proficient? OR
Improving at something they’re already pretty good at?
What if Bill Clinton had chosen to become a professional saxophonist?
I think this [...]
I gain a lot from the help of others. I absorb a lot of experience and knowledge vicariously through other people. It’s a really great thing. Helping others is an important part of my life.
Why?
Because so many people have helped me along the way.
Example: today in my verilog programming course, I asked the person sitting [...]
I think that every person should be really excited about one thing at all times. Only then will life be interesting and productive. And if this excitement begins to dwindle, then it’s time to consider whether it’s the case of a fleeting interest or just time to move on.
I’ve been observing my lifetsyle and those [...]
Yesterday I wrote an essay for my senior project course titled “Where Will I Be Professionally in Five Years?” Thought I’d share it with you all.
Where Will I Be Professionally in Five Years?
I predict that in five years I will have saved enough money and gained enough experience to start a web-based company targeted [...]
