RMIT Diary

December came, finally.

This time last year, I was a complete newcomer to everything: the school, new mates and new relationships. The last 12 months have been a remarkable memory. Life has been good. I have gained significant experiences, failed and stood up. I got the most exciting part-time job I have ever had. I had the chance to work with a diversity of people from the club, with schoolmates from other majors and the chance to connect with some true geeks.

My assignments are getting more challenging; And I love that. This semester, I have really enjoyed the Software Architecture course. Coding everyday makes me feel alive, more than ever before. I have been going to the library almost every day lately, reading books in a variety of topics, especially “followership”.

I became one of the club’ executive members, initiated and executed its first management training program, which has been quite a success so far. It will take a while to get the result, but I believe that what I have been doing will make a positive impact on the future of the organization.

I lost some of the battles against myself, then won them back. I learned a lot about people. I ruined some of the newly-established relationships before realizing that I didn’t do the right thing from the very beginning. I had a crush on a Korean girl, yet haven’t failed in love. I am still looking, and waiting, for the One.

Xmas is coming. It has always been a lonely experience. I am waiting for miracles, but nothing is to be taken for granted. Love is in the air, but maybe I am not ready.
