  • I love this video!! Besides the fact that I love Jay Chou and his music - the cinematography of this video is simply beautiful. There are so many scenes that I absolutely love! I have had this album (CD) for several years and I can't believe I didn't discover this MTV earlier.



    Recently I have been wondering how much time I've wasted on studying math/engineering. :( I seriously hated math! It just made no sense to me.

    I remember when I was little, I was inspired to be a film director, or at least to be part of a production. It has always been a wish that you know will never come true. The consistent though implicit message that I received from my surrounding environment is that this wish is unrealistic. You don't have the talent and you don't have the resources so don't even dream about it. This dream quickly became no more than a fleeting thought that I have learned to suppress.

    Being a photographer is the closest I've ever been to this dream of mine. I feel like I've just begun to slowly peel away layers of confusion and getting to the core of who I am. To this, I need to thank Bethel's MFT program. I wouldn't have became in touch with my inner self and feelings if I didn't write papers after papers about myself and family of origin. I'm so glad that I've arrived a place where I finally feel comfortable and happy about myself.

    I feel like ME.

    That's awesome, Cindy!  Don't suppress the dreams you have!  I'm sure it's there for a reason.  Dream, baby, dream!!! :)

    aw that's amazing! :D how terrible that you don't like math! no wonder why you kept on asking me if I like my major. Good thing I have a sis like you to keep me in check (and I guess parents are a bit easier on me...though for some reason i always feel guilty to pursue music even though I want to continue in college...and that's also becuase I don't think I'm talented enough anyway).

    yay!

    i like that jay chou song, too. he's pretty cool indeed.

    so glad you've gotten in touch with the real you. i've thought for a long time that one of the worst things is to be in a career that you loathe. (that's why i avoided software engineering, too. )  but 1,000,000 props for having the courage to step out and follow your dreams.

    Hey Cindy, that's great!  I felt the same way about engineering...well we learn what we don't like =)
