It's great to be surrounded by people so passionate in what they're doing. They never tire in teaching or sharing their knowledge, they keep pursuing further knowledge, they love that you want to know more and they get excited about you asking questions. And the best part is that no matter what these people are passionate about, their love of the subject, their bursts of energy and enthusiasm never fails to seep out and affect the others around them. It's just wow. It's completely inspiring. I'm just grateful to be here, to know these people, to learn from them.
A professor left us with this before he returned to the States: "You know, I always tell my students, whether it's clinical medicine, research or teaching, you should pick one and excel in it. It doesn't matter what. Just pick one and shine in it. If you wanna excel in all three, that's fine. But if you don't want to excel in anything, well. Then I don't know why we're here at all."
Note: Picture above was taken in Singapore Art Museum. I loved it the moment I saw it. So vibrant, so full of life. :)
