At heart I felt that as an idealist I belong to the social services world of helping the sick or the poor. However, from end 2021 to early 2022 I felt a fascination with all things new. Still, the emphasis on technology had not been anything new for me.
It could be that I had a sincere and heartfelt German professor who taught me all about Philosophy of Technology in my impressionable years before I started dealing with real people.
I thought it is clearly a good goal for the past decade to meet the real needs of people and impact real lives. However, I’d still be left feeling that I have not considered my real interest and delve into the luxury of wants even if it is perceived as impractical or not as useful. I still like professors, theories and ideas.
March 2022 I am glad that going back to school to study had been a win win situation where it is not all technical or all about working with machines.I am still put in the arena of social services where the real needs of some unfortunate classmates stirred up a meaningful side of the glamorous field of studying events and production.
Three months into the course, I am glad I could find meaning in all things #technology and even enjoy making lumen videos on the 10 emerging technologies. I am glad taking a break from #school helped me reposition myself to look forward to the future.
June 2022 Attending Asia Tech X conference for three days was very exciting as it forced me out of a comfortable domestic setting. A casual and predictable setting to one that was professional with high end tech like Quantum Computing that blew my mind away.
It is good to get out of my comfort zone of familiar classmates and meet unknown faces and ultimately come face to face with a king none other than ex Prime Minister of UK Tony Blair.
