Remembering Promises

Recently, I've slacked off and felt really stressed/depressed in college. College work was tough and I am vastly lacking the friendship and the connections I once had in my high school life. Polytech life is very unique and adaptive but i feel as if a chunk of me is still missing. As of lately, this has caused my grades and my overall mood to drop. I was feeling down with every passing day until today. I remembered my promises.


In the summer, I promised myself to help other Asians to alleviate the pain and misery of the poorer class. I promised myself that I would become rich one day and help everyone around me. But doesn't being rich and giving it away sound ironic? Well, no. I want to be rich in the view of others. I want the joy of my wealth to spread to those around me, whether its intellectual wealth or financial wealth. I NEED to do for those around me, and perhaps i may one day find someone I love by doing so.


Recently, I've created New Generation, New York. It is a student created non-for-profit organization for other students. Although it is not a full-pledged non-for-profit yet (because it is not yet registered), it exists as a group on facebook and is collecting more and more supporters. Run by me, Ruixin, and Henry, it seems and feels like a promising group. I may have to add more administrators later on. I've also remembered promising myself to raise enough money to start a quickly's store near Brooklyn Technical HS to generate profit. However, this all starts with education. With good grades, most of this can be more easily achieved, so I must continue, no matter how stressed or down i feel!


Wish me luck!
