It stands alone. You'd think it feels lonely among the busiest and the brightest (University of Toronto buildings) elites of the city. but it shines among the tired concrete structures. It's very different which is exactly why it's meaningful. see, difference is good, difference in openions, ideas and raw creativity is just what humanity needs and wants. Don't give me a concrete box to look at, or just the faded monalisa hanging around the wall, that smile is not gonna tickle my fancy any more. Instead give me mattress in a wall- so it makes me wonder what the hell that suppose to mean as Art. Of course i'm talking about the Michael Lee-Chin building. The current Royal Ontario Museum funded by Lee-Chin. His $30 million donation changed the face of downtown Toronto forever. The first question i asked was, are you serious?? he had so much money 30 million was just his petty cash. He started out at the bottom, working as a bouncer during his macmaster years just to pay his tuition and bills. Now he's managing a company which is worth $10 Billion. How many people do ou know donates 30 million for the people? indeed being different is good :)
    Ok so the other day i heard from certain somebody that eating garbage(three day leftovers) is kind of her co-workers hobby during lunch-time. Then it hit me hard. The reality is right now i am working on minimum wage just to provide my tuition for september. I think i'm on the same level. same brainy immigrants comes here just to work at minimum wage, forming the largest crowd in toronto. Only in Toronto a cab driver can tell you how does your blackberry works. I guess i too fall into that crowd. I am proud because i came from the gutter' because whatever i learned in those dark alleys, made me appreciate dimly lit corners of this city. I go to that minimum wage job of mine and smile, when everyone else is complaining i'm hunched forward, doing my work religiously. Minimus wage job is temporary, i gotta get out of that crowd just like everyone else. Now that i've started to read about investments i have some basic idea of what to do. i'm currently saving 20% of my pay. i think investing money is very fun only when you have neutral feelings toward it. People like buffet, lee chin, rocafellar, gates only inspires me to create something that'll benifit both me and my crowd. i just noticed that i probably have a disturbing mind. this journals of mine looks like a goldmine for a shrink. i think i should get a shrink using my minimum wage....or not.
