David Feinberg(Kumar's Poem)

I’m sure that I will always be
A lonely number like root three

The three is all that’s good and right,
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath the vicious square root sign,
I wish instead I were a nine

For nine could thwart this evil trick,
with just some quick arithmetic

I know I’ll never see the sun, as 1.7321
Such is my reality, a sad irrationality

When hark! What is this I see,
Another square root of a three

As quietly co-waltzing by,
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer,
Rejoicing as an integer

We break free from our mortal bonds
With the wave of magic wands

Our square root signs become unglued
Your love for me has been renewed


one day, hope can read this to my love. if i have one.

New Zealand

New Zealand is a beautiful country( yes, even to ppl like me going on a official trip, it is beautiful). the untouched scenery and the fresh breeze of air swept me off my feet when i reached there. the politeness of the people(waving at you whenever they pass you) definitely is a plus point too. i totally enjoyed the trip.

day 1: touch down after a super long trip. slightly lost as i am not prepared for my evaluation. dont know much about what i am going to be tested on and whatsoever.

day 2 to day 15: i guess many things happen along these days. i feel so lazy to type. but for the sake of reevaluating my experience again, i shall share some parts of them.

me, my rq and my understudy came tgt to start planning on everything for the days to come. we started with a plan to teach my guys on the evaluation.

first, we broke them,
my managers under me is not working as managers but as men so first, i had to wake them up. tekan them slightly to wake up their idea. it works wonders when they started to become more proactive. then i started on my men level. making them work very hard, giving them timing to meet, punishing them for not following instructions. soon they were mentally and physically prepared but they started to come to hate me.

then we made them.
then, i started to educate them and to relax on my punishment. letting them know the light of why things go and the reason. giving them chances and giving them time to feel bad. letting them motivate and encourage each other on. they started to gel together and work together. there was no longer a segregation of groups.

i have to be more confident.
i gain my confidence back. not bad. i always felt incomplete and wanted to change to become better. but i finally realise that part of my incompleteness is due to my confidence. i lose it somewhere along the trip(not to nz). i am slowly gaining it back again.

finally, just want to say tt my men did not let me down. i am proud of u guys. continue to persevere. ORD lo. and that this trip open my eyes and my experience up by a lot. thanks.
