I’ve come across a piece of news that could be bad for some: Facebook is going to revamp its layout<\/a> again. What interests me though is that it’ll ask people to write a short statement about themselves in a prominent position, right below their profile pics. This has been done in Instagram for quite some time already.<\/p>\n

What will be my statement? That’s the question that triggered my thoughts.<\/p>\n

Actually I have had a statement on Instagram. The old one used to be “If you’re going through hell, keep going.” It’s apparently not an original quote from me, but it fits my style. At first glance it seems pessimistic, but if you think deep, it’s more like a cautiously optimistic statement. Though I’m facing adversities, I’ll keep going and hoping one day I’ll overcome the difficulties. Yes, I may be a negative person who always sees the half empty glass, but I’m also a studious person who will keep trying no matter what.<\/p>\n

But that’s the old statement. I changed it to a new one a few months ago, which says “Coffee, food, photography, and a bit of dentistry”. To me it really represents who I am. I’m never a workaholic, so dentistry comes last. Coffee, food and photography, they’re perhaps equally important, but if they have to be prioritized that’s how they go.<\/p>\n

The sum of this statement is positive. Most pressure and sorrow are healed, or at least temporarily forgotten, when I do coffee, food and photography. As for dentistry itself, some days are better than others. I’m sure it gets better when I incorporate the first three into dentistry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
