Happy Holidays

We're near the end of 2009. Hopefully this year has been pleasant for everyone, and there's always next year to look forward to. I think this year is an eventful year. From internship in Taiwan during the summer to multiple trips visiting friends and families, from happiness to sorrow, I would never forget the things that happened this year.

2010 also marks my 10 years moving to the U.S. I still kept in touch with some of my friends from elementary school, thanks partly to my parents who constantly reminded me to write to them or contact them when we go back to Taiwan. And I think this connection is really integral if I were to return to Taiwan during my future career. Other than family, it's nice to have someone who went along with you during school or events, to have someone that shares a common event with you. I did not really hang out with classmates during middle school or high school. But that's just me...more family oriented. I did make more acquaintances during college, especially during my internships in Taiwan. I think every people we meet bring us new experiences in life. Even if they might not get along with us, we can still learn something from them.

Have a nice winter, and hope next year brings something new and challenging to us.
