I have fully realized how different people are from one another. How outlooks on life can be so different, and what people want from life, their dreams and their ideals are so different. And their work ethic.
Just within my friends. There's one that wants to marry Dougie and populate the world with little Sino-Anglo perverted children. (Sino=Chinese, Robin). There are people who just want to graduate from college, get a nice, decent-paying job, get married, have a family, live a nice middle-class life. There's someone who want to cure cancer and go to Africa to help people with AIDS, and also to become a professional breakdancer while she's at it. :D Someone else just wants to find a nice boy and get married. Someone else wants to be the first cellist of the London Philharmonic (and marry a particular someone that I'm also interested in.)

And you can tell what they want by how hard they work for it.

I'm sorry if some mindsets are a little hard for me to understand. It's probably the Asian work ethic and mentality ingrained in me.
