(Doing something ideal means different thing to different people. Image source: http://sentense.me/)
This year, instead making the usual New Year resolutions (which I know I would have a hard time keeping), I thought of doing something different.… [Click to read the rest] “2010 Reflection: Sorry, I’m An Idealist”
