Dreams Update: AUGUST 2010

Yesterday, T.S.S. turned one! I created this blog on August 30, 2009.

Now that only two minutes are left of August, I think T.S.S. has really got nothing to say except that she’s just writing this entry for the sake of updating her monthly “Dreams Update,” and that for this “Dreams Update” entry she would like to say that still wants to be a doctor no matter what!!!

“Nobody is too old to study Medicine,” that’s her new principle in life.

Dreams Update: JULY 2010

Since I’ve already posted a “Dreams Update” earlier this month (check out “Today, I realized…“), all I’m dreaming for right now is a quiet place to study and study and study and study and study and study and study and studyyyy…..

Hmmm…speaking of dreams, have you seen “Inception?”

Today, I realized…

…that I still want to become a doctor!!!

I watched Kyuhyun’s segment in “Strong Heart” about “second life” this morning and listened to him talk about the famous car accident they had 3 years ago. Among the 6 people who got hurt, Kyuhyun’s injury was the worst. He had 6 broken ribs which pierced through his lungs, every breath making him one step closer to death. When the doctors saw him, all of them said one thing: “This kid is going to die.”

“If we are going to operate, we have to start from the throat,” the doctors continued. However, Kyuhyun’s father opposed the doctors’ decision, saying, “My son is a singer. If you cut him from the throat, doesn’t it equate to robbing him of his dreams? Even if he survives, how can he continue to live?” The doctors and the father  then ended up in a heated argument.

At that moment, a Chinese doctor, who was advanced in age, stepped into the scene. “I can still remember his name,” Kyuhyun said. The name was Wang Yang Pil. The doctor said he knew of another method to operate, and he would use it on Kyuhyun, so the latter would still be able to sing.

Five months later, Kyuhyun was singing again on stage with the other members, just like nothing happened.

That doctor was definitely a lifesaver, and should I say, a “dream-saver!” Plus,  he reminds me of Dr. House!

Like them, I want to be a doctor. I want to save lives. And I want to protect others’ dreams.

Dreams Update: JANUARY 2010

Today, I still want to become a doctor (either an MD or a PharmD) and become a young millionaire. As much as possible, I want health and money to be the least of my problems. I also like the idea of having my own family in the future, but before that, I want to become really rich that I can travel the whole world and afford a ticket to every concert I’d like to attend.

While listening to Audrey and Kpop Lover’s conversation about Goldie’s parents last January 5, I suddenly came up with a very good reason on why I should become a doctor: It’s because I want to give my future children a good life, just like what Goldie has now.

I wish that I’d still be young by the time I became rich so I’d still have more time and strength to do anything I wanted to do with my life—take piano, violin and guitar lessons, learn different Asian languages, take my Mom and brother to Paris, build my own restaurant, donate a laboratory to my former school, establish my own scholarship foundation, et cetera.

To sum things up, my dreams for today all talk about money. Money, money, and more money. Money may not be the most important thing in the world, but it definitely affects the most important things in the world, just as a famous Filipino preacher had said.

I’m so hooked up on “House MD” right now. I even let my mom watch it. Guess what? She liked it! I like the show very much; it reminds me of my childhood dream of becoming a doctor.

Yes, The Silent Spectator has always wanted to be a doctor. I’m not saying that I want to become like Dr. House. He’s a genius, that I know, but I don’t want to be like him. Instead, I want to work for someone like him! I want to be a part of his team, just like Dr. Chase, Dr. Cameron and Dr. Foreman. Or more so, I want to be his friend! I want to be Dr. House’s Dr. Wilson! That would be so awesome!

I watched “Legally Blonde 2” just this afternoon. I would say the first one was better but this one was also great! I’d give it 2 out of 3 stars. Elle Woods is such an inspiration. Most of my life I’ve always been afraid to talk. I have always been a passive person. That’s why I get frustrated sometimes. Because I am silent, other persons tend to think that everything is fine with me. How insensitive they could get sometimes! Maybe if you were to point out the biggest fault I have in myself, it would be my lack of assertiveness.

Elle Woods is right. Why blame others’ insensitivity? I could’ve prevented it if only I got myself involved, if only I used my voice! Why let injustice reign when I myself have the key to hinder it? One honest voice is louder than a crowd. So speak up!

The Bible is also right. “The fact is, you do not have what you want because you do not pray for it” (The Book of James).

Think about it.
