			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m pretty excited about 2010 for several reasons:</p>
<ul>
<li>I&#8217;ll be working for eight months straight (January to August) for my co-op semesters
<ul>
<li>I&#8217;ll also be taking two courses over the duration to lighten up my course-load for my <strong>last</strong> year in university</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The <a href="http://ryersontrmc.ca/" target="_blank">Ted Rogers Memorial Conference</a> is happening in March, of which I am the Webmaster for</li>
<li>I aim to come to a decision about forming my own company (related to digital media solutions) over the year</li>
<li>ITMSA <img src='http://andryou.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </li>
<li>Not to sound narcissistic, but I will probably get on the Dean&#8217;s List (and receive an award or two in November) since my CGPA increased after the Fall 2009 semester (3.78 to 3.81, out of 4.33)</li>
<li>By the end of the year, I would be just one semester away from graduating (aka <em>freedom</em>; I intend on going to Hong Kong/Japan for 2-3 months as a sort of reward for exiting the education system and also use up some of the money in my bank account(s) that I haven&#8217;t really touched)</li>
</ul>
<p>After graduating (in 2011), I aim to devote more of my time to family and friends, since right now my main focus is building a strong &#8220;foundation&#8221; for myself in terms having a successful academic career in order to leap to newer, bigger, and better things (e.g. getting a steady, well-paying job in order to support my dreams of having a family). As a result, I&#8217;ve literally grown a few white hairs due to stressing about my courses and marks.</p>
<p>Some of the major challenges (aka new year resolutions) I forsee for 2010 are:</p>
<ul>
<li>picking a company for my &#8220;capstone&#8221; course to analyze and propose re-engineered business processes (ITM 700/800)</li>
<li>maintaining (and/or improving) my CGPA, especially after eight months of work</li>
<li>as always, time management and prioritization</li>
<li>cutting back on my procrastination</li>
</ul>
<p>I want to be able to fulfill more things on my <a href="http://andryou.com/pages/to-do/">To Do List</a> over the year <img src='http://andryou.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  (minus some obvious ones like getting married or having children). Here&#8217;s to a good year for everyone!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, I think best when I&#8217;m in the shower, and I randomly came up with an idea totally unrelated to my exam on Friday.</p>
<p>BC &#8211; 0: If life gives you lemons, bash them open with a rock</p>
<p>0 &#8211; 1500: If life gives you lemons, slash away at them (too lazy to go into detail through each era)</p>
<p>1500 &#8211; 1700: If life gives you lemons, bring them with you on your ship to prevent scurvy</p>
<p>1700 &#8211; 1900: If life gives you lemons, invent a machine to make lemonade</p>
<p>1900 &#8211; 1920: If life gives you lemons, talk about it over the radio (not too sure when the radio was invented, but close enough!)</p>
<p>1920 &#8211; 1945: If life gives you lemons, blow them up</p>
<p>1945 &#8211; 1970: If life gives you lemons, write a guitar melody about it and paint lemons all over your peace bus</p>
<p>1970 &#8211; 1990: If life gives you lemons, create a lemonade stand and commercialize your lemonade immediately</p>
<p>1990 &#8211; 1999: If life gives you lemons, create a website on them using Microsoft FrontPage (complete with counters, animated page background images and Comic Sans MS font)</p>
<p>1999 &#8211; 2005: If life gives you lemons, post about them on AsianAvenue/MySpace</p>
<p>2005 &#8211; Present: If life gives you lemons, tweet/blog about them and/or post them on Facebook</p>
<p>A side-note: I lost my student card that has a really faded-out picture of me. Some lucky asian guy could very well be pretending to be me.</p>
