Day In, Day Out

It has been a looong time since the last post. Kihkihkih. I've been sooo busy with damn assignments and guess what I am working very hard for a tut tut. ;) Dont ask me why. I feel like having one so I'm working hard to have it. Books? I've to stop reading my favourite genres due to my assignments. It is frustrating when you want to read something but you dont have time to do so. But it's okay. I'll catch it later. People call today's season as spring but I prefer to call it as summer. It's hot. Worth putting your hat on.

Poverty resulted her to pay attention on gaining money and surviving in the rapid development of the world. She realised the importance of knowledge and education but without enough money, everything seemed to be impossible. Mom always reminds me things about life, hardship and education.

Waah. It has been more than 10 days and I still reading Emotional Intelligence by Goleman. I know that I am paying more attention to unnecessary things such as etc and etc ;) Reading this book, I feel like quoting everything because I really want to share with all every points and arguments in it. It is a worth reading book. The added payoff for life success from motivation, apart from other innate abilities, can be seen in the remarkable performance of Asian students in American schools and professions. One through review of the evidence suggests that American-ASian children may have an average IQ advantage over whites of just two to three points ... The reason seems to be that from the earliest years of school, Asian children work harder than whites. Sanford Dorenbusch, a Stanford sociologist who studied more than ten thousands high-school students, found that Asian-American spent 40 percent more time doing homework than did other students.
