Recently, we have some gatherings with some special friends during the Chinese New year.

The talk of a father about his son's childhood story related to football manner has been lingering in my mind.

His son is a football fan. When he was a kid, he used to complained that no one liked to pass a ball to him when he . The father conformed his son, "If you can catch a ball well, people will give you more chances. The first thing is to be ready to catch the ball - to practice more, to be well prepared. 作好自己的本份,机会自然来.

This exactly resonates to the saying that 机会永远是留给有准备的人.

Another talk with a young man who shared his first-hand experience about his first job and current situations:

A Double E graduate from UST has been just working for one year. Here is his personal feeling about the difference between studying in school and working in the society:

He said, writing program becomes his routine in his R/D job in combination with all he learned from school, not only his electronic knowledge. Every day is new to him,  so fresh and challenging that he need to learn new things quickly and in a massive quantities in a short period.

I can see his job satisfaction from his confident and humble voice, despite his hectic life...

It looks writing program is a life tool as basic and important as the most elementary arithmetic  for the new generation and digital age nowadays.

Every day I can find something new to think about, to enjoy, especially to learn from people around us.
