19Jan2009 Friday - Really Foggy
I got off school early today because the whole class decided to skip the coffee break after lunch. To me, it doesn't make a difference because I solemnly take the afternoon coffee break. I just keep working in the shop. At 2:30pm, we are ready to leave but I don't want to leave. I want to stay and keep working. That's probably the first time in my school life that I said, "I don't want to go home."
Early in class, my classmate asked why I am so hardworking, am I being possessed? - I was looking at the textbook the entire time - I felt offended actually. Why can't I be hardworking? Just because he doesn't do his homework and read the textbook during class doesn't mean I can't. I want to figure out the different numbering system for different bolts and screws. I want do something great and be an excellent AME in the future, is that so shocking?

Procrastinate Later
I guess I've been lazy since my first post from 3 or 4 months ago. I was taught by a very bright tutor during my grade 12 year, Albert. He told me about the ultimate laziness; it's a very deep meaning to me.
He said if you are truly lazy, you would only do things ONCE. You should try your best at the first time on everything, no matter what, whether it was school, work, or life. When you work hard and succeed at first try, you don't have to be do it again because you are too lazy to redo all the process. That's the ultimate laziness. Not a lot of people can understand this meaning because lazy and success don't link together, so they said it doesn't make sense at all. To me, it made a lot of sense. I know I am lazy, my parents said I am lazy, my friends said I am lazy; yet, I haven't grasp the true meaning of being lazy. I still have to redo some work to perfect my assignments or whatever. Right now, I think I am starting to understand this meaning. I can't rush myself to do things. I have to take it slow and to observe what others are doing wrong so I won't make the same mistakes as them. This way, I don't have to redo my work and waste my time because I am just a lazy person and I am too lazy to do it again.
