Do you ever...

get the feeling that you can always do better?

Like after a presentation or after you hand in an assignment, you feel that you could have done better if you had did this or that.

Of course these thoughts are redundant as you only have one shot at it and if you missed your shot, too bad.

On the other hand, if you took it from the perspective that it's a learning process, that one thing leads to another. So even if you have done terribly for the first time, you can learn something from it and hopefully the next time you won't screw up.

I'm in the process of self consolation now... I just had a workshop yesterday and I'm feeling a little depressed over the fact that I didn't perform as I've imagined it to be.

Almost 70 people attended and I was like the facilitator cum coordinator of the workshop. So obviously, I had to freak out... it's in the handbook of "How to be a great workshop coordinator":

to be a successful and entertaining workshop coordinator, the firs thing you have to do is to freak out and forget what you want to say. It may sound weird, but this little gesture keep your audiences entertained, and they somewhat like it...

Ok... I was being crappy. But I really did freak out... and I even forgot to introduce myself. It was fortunate enough that I didn't introduce the wrong presenters.

There are so many things, that when I think back, I am sure I could have done better. Oh well...

That's that on my workshop.

I remembered some one told me that 'huh' is the reset button for all conversation.

For example:

Ah Neow:" adhlkjfhgl jhlksjh jhkljh h kjhl kj hlj jkh lkjh lkjlhkj hljh ljkh lkjhl &^(&*^ 76 976, OK?"

Ah Gow:" HUH?"

Ah Neow: -_-"

Ah Neow:" I was saying.... adhlkjfhgl jhlksjh jhkljh h kjhl kj hlj jkh lkjh lkjlhkj hljh ljkh lkjhl &^(&*^ 76 976, OK?"

Ah Gow:"Huuuuuuuuuuuuh....???"

okok.... Crappy stuffs, but it's food for thought and I thought I might go get some food now...
