The past 4 months have been an experience, to say the least. Teaching me things when I wasn't asking to be taught, per se. Just some notes I took 'in class'.

- If you're comfortable, you're not growing

- There is always room for improvement (especially when it comes to budgeting money)

- A huge bag of rice for less than 5 GBP is a SWEET deal, especially since it's been 2 weeks, and it is not even CLOSE to being done

- Looking 'young' for your age IS good, that is if people know your real age. Otherwise they really think you are THAT young.

- Being underestimated is NOT a curse, it's an opportunity

- Live your OWN dream, not your parents'

- Cookie cutter jobs are for cookie cutter people

- Make a difference in a life - even better if that person needed it

- Sacrifice for the right reason

- Look outside yourself

- You are not the same as you were 4 months ago. If you are, you haven't done much today.

- Biggest curveball thrown at me: 'finding myself' when I wasn't looking.

- When you die, your laptop, blackberry and ipod will not be pallbearers. Put people first, always.

- The only time you have is NOW.


Next entry will be from North America!
