This past weekend, I’ve been in a sort of mood, where I really don’t want to do much. I mean, I’m doing stuff, but it’s very unproductive. Like taking my MP3s and organising them. Who does that? Me apparently. Usually though, if I haven’t been working on my “project of hate” (reading hundreds bunch of current event articles), I’m catching up on podcasts [about current events]. This project is slightly more productive than organising MP3s, but nonetheless, these are all not revenue-generating activities. Which brings me back to a book I read over the winter break:
Meg Jay’s “The Defining Decade”
In which she meticulously spells out the issues that 20-year-olds feel, and to a certain extent, even a bit of 30-year-olds. That sort of sense of loss of purpose, the continual expectations that you try to meet for other people and society at large. This weekend brought back that sense of loss of purpose. This weekend felt a lot like being in high school again for some reason. So I did what I used to do in high school, and listen to 張學友‘s music, and watched his music videos. He also recently came out with a new album at the beginning of last month, which I checked out as well. I’ll bring up some of those videos maybe this coming weekend. Then, I watched an interview he had in Taiwan:
I’m always inspired whenever I hear him talk about his life. I guess lately, what I’ve been worried about my plans for the immediate future. I’ve made plans before, and they’ve never really worked out for one reason or another. Not that I don’t know what I’m doing, I have a general idea, not QUITE a plan filled with minute details and exit strategies, but a general idea. I guess I need to hash out the details right now then.
Oh yes, Chinese New Year is coming on the 19th. Does anyone else have plans?
