Roy's Restaurant

I officially proclaim this restaurant my new favorite place in Philadelphia, followed by Amada. Although it was on the expensive side, the money was well spent. Good dinner, good company.

My new favorite dessert, Roy's chocolate souffle. Screw creme brulee.

Balance

I remember writing an entry on my old blog about how my heart is split up in terms of family, friends, significant other, and work. The most fair way to divy up my time and energy is 25% each. But, I'm finding that it's becoming increasingly difficult to maintain such a balance. First, I tend to be a workaholic, so I dedicate more time to my job than necessary, also causing me to place unnecessary stress on myself. Next, I realize that I'm spending less and less time with my parents. It started during the spring semester when I just didn't want to pick up my mom's calls. I was busy studying (another instance of improper balance) and didn't want to get distracted. And, I may have caught a case of 有了男友忘了朋友. *sigh* I need to better manage my life. Why didn't MGMT 100 teach me how to manage myself before managing others?

A new phase of my life

I realized that since 2000, there has been a significant change in my life about every two years. Bumbly middle-schooler obsessed with F4 from 2000 to 01. 2002 I started high school as a nerdy asian tomboy. 2004 I still was nerdy, but much less a tomboy. I finally woke up and came out of my shell. I wouldn't say completely but I realized that there are people and things outside my own little bubble. 2006 is self-explanatory. And here I am in the year 2008, not only are there changes in my personal life, but also it's time to try figuring out a career path. And, looking forward, comes 2010. Here's to a new phase. Cheers.
