3 Things that I am happy about:

  • Trip to Brazil
  • Brazilian Food
  • Samba Schools

My trip to Brazil was incredible. I met the friendliest people full of life thru dance, football (soccer), and food. I am challenge on the running a business and serving the customer base with my new knowledge. I definitely would like to go back during the Olympics & World Cup. Traffic would be a nightmare during those times. I met a great recruiter that has a very unique background. Overall the trip made me think twice of how I view the world.

I have been challenge for the last few weeks for time. I argued that I don’t have time, but the truth is that perhaps I am not organizing my time correctly. I have failed to utilize my crossfit opportunities.  I will have to make it more of a priority.

Presidential Debate

Posted on October 4, 2012 by Tuan

3 Things I am happy about:

  • Skype => Talk with a friend in Peru
  • Clam Chowder => Just good stuff
  • Kindle => Reading a book for class

I watched the first Presidential Debate of 2012 tonight. Normally, I just watch the highlights, but tonight I watched the whole thing. Both candidates had their moments, but what was interesting were the topics not covered. All to often we just hit on the main topics. This year it’s about the economy, but what about other topics going on too that have not been discuss? I would challenge people in the U.S. and myself to think about the implications of our votes across the board. In the end, I am happy that we can simply vote  for a new or keep a government instead of bearing arms for a change.

Empty Promises

Posted on April 30, 2012 by Tuan

3 Things I am happy for:

  • Warm Weather
  • My church group
  • Air Conditioning

We spoke about “Empty Promises” at church today. Everyday we have someone teaching their kids that if you do ‘X’, then you will get ‘Y’. The problem with this statement is that it doesn’t always hold true. We must challenge and evaluate our thoughts in order to see beyond the cliche associated…

Warm Winter…

Posted on March 25, 2012 by Tuan

Three things I am happy about:

  • Visiting my family
  • Seeing my friends
  • Going to my friends wedding

I spent the weekend in Ft. Lauderdale. It’s especially warmer than usual in Florida. I met up with a few of my friends who still live in Ft. Lauderdale. Where does the time go? My friends’ kids are growing up so fast! I spent the morning on the beach. I miss the beach because I miss the sunshine and smell of the ocean. The air seems always crisper on the beach. Later that afternoon, I attended another one of my friend’s wedding. They had an awesome wedding. They made a mini brochure about their wedding party and their family.  My dance skills finally paid off =) The only regret is I wish I picked it up sooner. I was able to dance with a few people and not even worry about it. My parents also found a stray dog this weekend too. I wish I can spend more time with my family and friends instead of moving from one moment to the next….

What is time worth to you?
