beginning of the end

After the crazy news of Merrill's takeover and the bankruptcy of Lehman yesterday, Wasserman sent out an email today regarding our full-time job search and how to approach this process with even more seriousness and flexibility. At the end of the email was this:

"Keep your energy level up and do not get discouraged. If you are feeling discouraged, talk with a friend or family member, a Wasserman staff member, or another professional with whom you feel comfortable. If you are feeling especially upset, you should reach out to the Wellness Exchange at 212-443-9999."

Wow.

Man, God could totally use this financial crisis to wake people up to see how much more there is to life than banking, money, careers, ladders... Maybe my classmates will actually pursue their passions now that it's harder to settle into a comfortable corporate cubicle! Haha, I should be listening to myself....

crisis

defined as: "a crucial stage or turning point in the course of something"

Although 'crisis' has a negative connotation, I wouldn't necessarily say I'm in a bad place right now... it's good to be waiting upon the Lord, for I know He will answer.

The line that exists between mere words and action is more of a gaping hole... When is a risk worth taking if you have absolutely no clue what the rewards/sacrifices will be?

LOL

During my International Business Management class today, we went around and shared what we wanted to do after we graduated. This one Korean kid's answer to that question was "something that makes me happy," to which my big, old, jolly Indian professor responded "how about kimchee?"

PUAHAHAHAHAHA
