Almost forgot to post my translated lyrics.
The song called "Road". It's a Korean song by god, a used-to-be big time group.
Where does this road lead to
Donno where it's taking me
no way to know no way to know..I'm just waking down the road again today
People donno whether there's a chosen way or we should make our own way through
no way to know no way to know.. I'm just walking down the road again today.
Why am I standing on this road, Is it really for me?
Will my dream come true at the end of this road?
Wanna know what gives the happiness
is it money, honor, or people I love?
wann know wanna know.. but still can't answer.
I want to say confidently that It's my road
and don wanna look back or regret
and just wanna keep waking on and on.. but still not sure.
Why am I standing here on this road..
Is it really for me?
Will my dream come true at the end of this road
What's my dream?
Who is it for?
The dream come true, Will I be able to smile?

Art Critique and 3 comments
1. Description:
There is a big snow-topped mountain with clouds shading it all over. I see another mountain range in the back that seems no bigger than the one in front. I see hills on both sides of the picture where in front there is a dense looking forest of evergreens. What's closest from the viewer is a little bank harboring a small pont with several trees standing on it. One can also spot a river flowing in between.
2. Technique: The photographer tried to take a wide view shot of the landscape. The ambient light is more noticeably present on the left side of the picture. The right side looks a little burned in. Judging by a little difference between brightness and darknesss, the pic has low contrast.
3. Analysis: David's got it
4. Interpretation: David's got it
5. Assesment(Judgment): The photographer must have wanted to highgliht the magnificance of the landscape and he did a good job on that. By just looking at it, we can easily feel overwhelmed and breath-taken by the beauty of the scenery here. It looks quite valuable and reputed for its lucidity and illustration of freshness. I think it would have been better if a little bit more brightened and texturized.
Comments on other art postings:
1. The Jinny's:
holy cow.. literally.
I really like the rough strokes used in this painting. I can definitly identify myself with the Korean spirit inflitrating throughout this single cow. It's quite a familar painting as I've known it ever since very little, but every single time I see it, it blows me away.
(Gosh!! I can't post my comment on Jinny's blog!! it Freak;n keeps loggi off by itself!! WTH)
2. The Young Min's (forgot her English name sorry):
Wo.. first I see this man flying with some woman and that ain't looking so good cuz it seems like he's kidnapping her. We can tell by the given facial expression here on the canvas that they both are not really enjoying it. It's my opinion so bear with me.
I like the colors used though. A bit muddy, and abstract, deep impression I got from it.
3. The Elena's:
I couldn't have explained about the painting better than Elena. It needs no further description on how fantastically she presented her work. Every time she pointed those riddles out of the pic, I was takenaback at the niggling sense of the painter.

3 examples of turning lemons into lemonade
Steve Job : We've even watched a video clip of him talking about his setbacks in life and how we turned it upside down. Such a good story, and I give him that.
Quyen's story: Perfect example of how one can rise from the gutter. She was hardscrabbled, but got a full scholarship to Yale, and eventually winds up as successful.
Perry Klebahn: He broke his ankle, not being able to run as well as he used to. He agonizes himself. But, he invents this snowshoe and makes a lot of money in the end. Wow

Turning lemons into lemonade
One day I went to school for a project meeting, and found out later that it was canceled. It traumatized me. But, I figured it was such a wonderful day with perfect weather so went down to the court and played basketball with random people there and befriended them. I turned lemons into lemonade.
Still reading the chapter.. might take a little for examples of turning lemons into lemonade.

chapter 7 quotes
Even when we're lucky, we've usually worked remarkable hard to put ourselves in that position.
: There's no such thing as luck. Say u picked up a 100 dollar bill on the street, u might think u really got blessed or something but not. It's all because you have done something that drove you down there. U must have done something very charitable that some guy put a bill in ur path way, waiting for the best timing.
In short, being observant, open-minded , friendly, and optimistic invites luck your way.
: No kidding! u have to be observing a lot unless u want to miss any bill lying on the street. And, open-minded! dah! u need to embrace stuff even if they may look dull and boring, who knows? in a stupid looking sea shell you might be able to find a pearl.
Lucky people don't just pay attention to the world around them and meet interesting individuals.
: Yeah~ pimps don't hang with wanna bees~ cuz they know they're something. True that u don have to prick ur ears to hear bull crap from ur fruit head friends! go meet people for real!

chapter 6 quotes
1. If you're passionate about something but not particularly good at it, then it's going to be pretty frustrating to try to craft a carreer in that area.
: The passions we have gotta be something we can make use of or at least minimally lucrative. If one's following his dumb passions that don't put food on the table, I think there's no point.
2. The sweet spot is where your passions overlap with your skills and the maret.
: Yeah~ I dare say you wanna set your passions in the first place for something that you would stick to down the road no matter what, such that you would be able to make some dough out of when chips are down.
3. When I was in my early twenties, it was surprisingly difficult for me to separate whwat I wanted for myself and what others wanted for me.
: This ain't a quote but I think its what most of my friends in 20s would nod to. It's hard seriously for one to stand burden from others looking at you starry-eyed. Same here, I've always wanted to be a zookeeper or if lucky a zoo runner, but people around me have kind of pushed me up to now. I appreciate them in some way, otherwise I would have gone really really bad, but come to think of it I never did what I desperately wanted to do for my own sake. Shame on me
