Got another Ding yesterday. Ding is a fact of life. Ding is what gives you courage. As Omar Mokhtayar said, "Blows that don't break your back strengthen it". I haven't tried recently, but my back should be stronger than Hercules' right now.

But still the tired soldiers plod on, never at peace, never at rest, but believing in their cause.
Well I'm over-dramatizing. I'm having fun! I'm in Singy, have a long weekend ahead of me, and plan to travel to Jakarta to check out the sights and sounds and of course the tastes.

I'm spending the last few hundred dollars of what I saved during 7 years' of working to make my INSEAD experience more memorable. I'm not recruited yet, am not very hopeful of getting recruited in the short term, but still am OK with it.

Blows that don't break your back strengthen it.
