I wrote this on 19/01/2018, recently I have been busy so I am just going to keep posting my the posts in my inventory
Okay it is not entirely true that I have been busy, just that I took 3 days leave to binge watch Stranger Things season 1 and 2, plus trading at the same time
Now come weekend I have to do research on what stocks to trade next week
So I was not super busy, but I am busy now
I just turned down 2 Friday night invitations man, so hey I REALLY mean it when I say I am busy
So yeah, and fret not man, I have all the time to write next week when I finally finish my internship
I have already got a list of things that I want to express saved in my blog
-------------------------------我是分割线--------------------------------
There is one line in this movie "Coach Carter" that I can relate to a lot
I am guessing that is not a youtube worthy scene because I can't find it in youtube
I will just have to reiterate what is said from my memory
Firstly, a short synopsis of the movie "Coach Carter"
Coach Carter is the basketball coach of Richmont high school
Richmont is a town filled with delinquents, or delinquents soon to be
Coach Carter is of the opinion that the team's academic result is more important than the basketball game
So he locked down the basketball gym when the team failed to honor their term of getting the agreed CGPA which is stated in their basketball contract
Please stay with me, I am about to deliver the line
After missing many basketball games in the season, the parents call a vote, to vote for the unlock of the basketball gym so that their children, who love playing basketball, can play
When it is decided that the basketball gym will be unlocked, Coach Carter quit his job as the basketball coach because he does not want to be responsible for ruining the future of his team
When leaving, the headmaster who now respect Coach Carter's motive, tried to convince him out of his resignation
She said : "Coach, this game, it will be the highlight of their life"
Coach Carter then replied "That is where the problem is, don't you think so ?"
I am not sure how many people are touched by this line, but I was
It is simply saying that, when you already define something as the highlight of your life, you are indirectly not expecting anything much for your future
For example, you think that this group of friends of yours is the best you can have in this life, then you are actually hinting yourself that you will NEVER find any other great friendships for the rest of your life
If you think this period of your life is the BEST part of your life, you are not expecting any good thing OR not working for better thing in the future
In the movie, most people just want them to play the game, and stay out of trouble in the mean time
Coach Carter has a longer sighted vision, he wants them to win the game call life, not a basketball game
I am saying, please expect more from yourself, also work hard on yourself
I hope you get what I am trying to say
