Laughter makes the world go round

I guess my attempts at keeping my blog updated are failures. Too many things to do, too little time.
A couple major events have happened since I last posted. I've been accepted into the Terry College of Business at UGA, and I've been selected to take part in a summer internship. I'm really excited for both, but I know I'm going to have to work hard at both.
I learned a lot about myself while waiting for both of these events to occur. I've learned that I doubt myself too easily. I think that's the case for a lot of people, but I want to become one of those people who carry themselves with a lot of confidence, not cockiness. I always think to myself that I'm not good enough for this, or I can't do that, but within these past few weeks, I've realized that there are a lot of things I can do, a lot of things I can do well. As long as I have that will, as cliche as it sounds, there's nothing I can't do, especially if someone else can do it. When I heard back from UGA regarding my acceptance into Terry, I was surprised; when I heard back from my internship opportunity, I was surprised. Then I thought to myself, why was I so surprised? I worked just as hard as anyone else to make these things happen, so why was I so shocked? It could be because I've let myself down a lot when I felt I could do something, but it must have been that I didn't try hard enough. I have to learn to better commit myself to things and stick with it. I think it will definitely help me become mentally and emotionally stronger. I guess this is my late new year's resolution.
On a lighter note, I have been listening to way too much Korean music and watching too many Korean stuff. My visit to Korea owned me. This cannot be good. To look at it from a positive light, I guess I just want to embrace the very culture I've made fun of for so long. Don't get me wrong, I still like to poke fun, but at the same time, I've become more prideful with my background, and the Olympics definitely put it over the top. When I think about it, I don't want my kid growing up not knowing his or her own cultural background, so I'll just take it as me wanting to help my kids. In the meantime, it'll also be my guilty pleasure. Please don't make fun of me.
