Evethough the weather here I Denmark has started to be boring, today has been an ispiring day for me.
A former IBB student came over to tell us about what he has been doing after he graduated. He said that he wasn’t a clever student back then, he was even a pain in the ass for some teachers, never they have expected that he would be as succesful as he is now. He is studying in Boston, I think he said he is studying MBA. I’m not quite sure but he is studying that has something to do with business of course. He is only 23 and he said the average age of people there are 28, the reason for this is because when he was taking his bachelor in DK he thought it was really boring so he took the 2nd year and 3rd year of his bachelor degree at the same time, quite impressing eh? And he is saying that he is just an average person, that he is not clever at all. While he was taking up 2nd year & 3rd year of his bachelor degree in Business Administration he was working too, and its not just an ordinary job, he was traiing people ( I cant really remember for what, but something with business, He talked for more than one hour so some of the details has mized up in my mind but I can still remember the basic) He has been in many different countries, worked for many different firms at the age of 23. actually he just turned 23 last week.

While I was listening to his speech all I could think was, my God I want to be just like him! He has had a lot and I say A LOT of experience, working in a top class restaurant, working for cable company and that was when he was only young, now he is older he has experienced a lot more. He has been to Hongkong and worked there, I cant remember where else he has been but a lot of different countries working as marketing consultant. He said that he wasn’t studious when he was young but he is fortunate anyways because he had a lot of experience. I think it is also because he is a talkative person, he is good into reaching people and he has come in contact with some people that has experience a lot, he said that you don’t only get knowledge from school but also from the people you interact with, and its actually true..

I cant talk a lot about what this guy told us but that will be too much, the point is I’ve been thinking about doing something that can make my CV look good and after listening to this guy I kinda got more eager !! I seriously don’t want to waste time doing nothing I want to experience what the world has got to offer! I want to go out there and show that even though I might not be the most clever student in the world I can still do somethig big because I am willing to learn!

I think one important thing you have to be is ‘willing’ if you want to become something big. I am so willing that I don’t feel too much sick even though I have cold and fever. After hearing his ‘lecture’ I kinda felt a little better :P I know that there is a big world out there waiting for me, waiting for all of us who are willing enough to take advantage of it.

I want to become something big!! =)
