I am now a retired summoner. In other words, I recently uninstalled the last video game I played on a regular basis, due to the sheer volume of other things I want to do (which I've not spent enough time and energy on at this time). Books, movies, snowboarding, activities, work, socialising, and--most importantly--exploration. I want to explore more of the important things in life, and by that I mean such topics as covered in the links from the last post.
Funny thing, actually: today in my DevPsyc lecture we watched a TED talk by Sir Ken Robinson (SKR) (one of the speakers from the links in my last post). Not only was it inspiring, but the coincidence struck a chord with me, and I noticed that SKR has a book out called The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything. Top of my to-read list, now! So thank you, Jeremy Frimer, for yet another awesome lecture, which connected to me especially personally this time.

ReplyDelete@Andreas Why thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it. You're my first "public" commenter. Also, I love Dexter, so I'm curious why did you post a link to S5E02?
