things I've learned on my summer vacation
1. Money first. Dreams later. The Dark God of Capitalism, etc., The Unnameable Slithering Horror, is actually not the worst fate for Southeast Asia after all.
2. I am exactly like my father, temperament-wise, hence my impatience with incompetence. Uh-oh.
3. Cities need effective mass public transportation. Especially poor ones.
4. Moderate Islam is in the fight of its life. I don't want to sound hysterical but the situation is much more dire than I think outsiders know - not in terms of the effects on the amorphous "war on terror" but in terms of the survival of the affected nations/states.
5. I need to grow up. I need to settle down. I need to stop comparing myself to others and be honest with myself about what I need, not what others think I need.
6. Everybody wants to be Korean.
7. I am actually pretty good at killing mosquitoes.
8. Typing without an a key is hard.
