Lesson #1 When in doubt, surprise yourself

It was Mun Yee's 21st bday party today and it was a pretty damn awkward situation when none of my friends have arrived and we had to share a table with some strangers. It was so awkward and I had no idea what I should have done as a proper person would do.

Looking back, what I should have done was to do what I could not have done. I should have just introduced myself to the table, introduced my friends, sat down and have a good laugh, instead of being bored silly like a shy idiot.

Lesson:

1. There is nothing in life that is too difficult to do.

2. Don't be so self-conscious, just lay back and relax and do the thing you know is the right thing to do. Just because you don't have the guts to do it doesn't mean you should just NOT do it.

3. Think not once, not twice, but three times before uttering a curse word. If its inappropriate in any way, don't do it.

4. Think of things as a game. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Care, but not that much.

5. Finally, always try to surprise yourself by doing the things you never knew you could do. Believe in yourself just that little bit more.
