what can I do?

Often enough I asked myself, what can I do? Not that I have a problem and I am looking for a way to solve it, but for the things worth doing by me, as an individual. I must have been endowed with some characterized abilities that it is preferred for me to do certain things and not the others. Recently, I find the list of things shorter and shorter, I am getting disappointed and less confident. If you ask me now, "Hi Ting, how are you doing?" I would say, "doing what first?" Would I be able to walk out of this "doing what" crisis, I dont know. It really depends on if I succeed in the next few things that I would be engaged in. Would I be able to succeed, I guess then it depends on whether I would stop writing this blog right now and get started...then I start...

Happy Birthday, my dear friend, Fishy!

Fishy is an old friend of mine...and the kind of friend that I jumped to my feet when I heard from her, after not hearing from each other for 5 years. She is even in UK now...how kind is fate to me... I still remembered how much fun we had playing together in the school basketball team as well as the threesome basketball competition, how we lost the school volleyball chiampionship and cried together with the runner-up, and laughed together for the runner-up in "badminton double female"...
Besides sport, we performed on stage dance as well as sketches and English plays together and how funny it was that we both ended up playing the male roles as we were both considered so cool kind of boyish(more a lack of male supply in our college), yet how we both liked guitar so much and crazy about boys who played great guitar...
Dear Fishy, though the deadline is hanging up there, threatening, I am still taking the time to wish you a happy birthday-because your happiness would make me feel simply good! And the more, the merrier...^&^
