Journey of the mind

Since I can work from home tomorrow, I didn't need to sleep early tonight. Somehow, I just feel like writing down these thoughts. So far, I haven't had much smoothness in romance . I stay positive, but sometimes I still feel a little sad about my fate. Still, I've never seen anyone as strong as me. If I can't see a future with someone, even if I once liked them, when it ends, I never regret, no second words. I do exactly what I remind myself to do. I keep my patience and carry hope. Maybe I'm good at hiding my feelings, or I'm just too rational. And also  perhaps they're simply not the battles I'm meant to fight. I don't think career and relationships are two parallel lines. One can influence the other.   At this point in my life, I feel caught between career and relationship. My career presents difficulty and my relationship carries uncertainty.  If my career isn't what I truly want, then my relationship doesn't feel genuine either because ...

I'm in white again, not in a laboratory, but in a factory. PS.  #1.  The farthest lunch trip I've ever taken… all the way to the company cafeteria :) #2. Today, I received an email from my landlord from the time I lived in Seoul. It was so touching. I should have emailed him first, but ... yes but I hesitated, and then life simply swept me away. I wrote him back with some updates, and I know we'll keep in touch.                                                                                                                                                ...

I used to live in this society without needing to understand it when I was a child. Back then, I was surrounded by a small, close-knit community, familiar and comforting. I felt content and happy, without questioning much. But gradually, I became part of a larger and more complex world, filled with many people, layers, and expectations. In the process of searching for my own identity, I began to ask and to answer for myself what society truly means. This society, where the majority often shapes the direction of the community, still leaves space for individuals to shine in their own unique ways through their talents, their differences, and their voices. Here, each person is unique, with their own story to tell.  Outcomes often reflect individual choices. They can serve as examples and might inspire others but they are not one-size-fits-all paths. Every person contributes to create this society. Though nothing is absolute, we are bound by shared rules and a common moral compass that ...

#92. E lectronic components I recently started working at a large Japanese company specializing in electronic components, with thousands of employees. This is my first time working at such a large scale, and it has always been my desire to "test the waters" and gain industrial experience, especially in seeing how applications come to life in the real world. At the same time, I remain focused on my long-term goals. Gaining hands-on experience with electronic components will be valuable when I pursue research in the future. Working in a large-scale industrial environment also broadens my understanding of how the industry operates. Together, these experiences will support my career growth in meaningful ways. What excites me even more is that several professors who work in my field of interest, microfluidic chips for bioapplications, also have backgrounds in Electrical Engineering. This gives me confidence that I'm on the right track. For example: #93.  When you can’t go fu...
