Just a great and extremely inspiring writing that reminds me to live life to the fullest and travel young:)

WHY YOU SHOULD TRAVEL YOUNG


As I write this, I’m flying. It’s an incredible concept: to be suspended in the air, moving at two hundred miles an hour — while I read a magazine. Amazing, isn’t it?

I woke up at three a.m. this morning. Long before the sun rose, thirty people loaded up three conversion vans and drove two hours to the San Juan airport. Our trip was finished. It was time...

Keep Listening, but Start Talking

Posted by Ngan Pham on Tuesday, April 24, 2012 In : Interesting articles 

When we meet with prospective investors, I don't speak much, and for good reason. There are three founding partners: Clayton Christensen, Matt Christensen, and me. When Clay is in the room, people want to hear from him. He's not only the controlling shareholder of Rose Park Advisors; our investment approach is based on his theory of disruptive innovation. Next on deck is his son, Matt,the CEO and portfolio manager; then me. 

In this particular context it makes sense that my partners do the lio...

This girl just has a stunning beauty and extraordinarily memorable eyes. I love watching AMNT mostly just to see her.

She is weird but inexplicably attractive and her eyes' expressions are mind-boggling. I hope she wins because obviously she is an all-star with beauty inside out:-) Good luck girl !

Internship and internship hunting reflection

Posted by Ngan Pham on Friday, November 4, 2011
I finally met with my mentor today after a month of trying to schedule meeting time. It was relieving to talk to her to catch up and listen to her advices.she was very encouraging and told me that it was not me who had any problems but it was the economy and it was a bad timing to look for job now. She told me she knew people who used to be manager and directors are now applying for analyst jobs, which means that economy must be really bad. Even her company might be going to cut jobs and they...

Bởi trái tim anh đã có thừa người khác 
Bản tình ca ở bên em anh há...

My lucky period :D

Posted by Ngan Pham on Friday, April 22, 2011 In : Daily life 
These past few weeks have been an influx of great news for me. Like a farmer overwhelmed in the esctacy of a ripen harvest, I just can't stop holding a big smile on my face and being overexcited all the day. "You must do the thing you think you can't do." That is true. I went in for things that are so competitive and challenging that I myself always secretly think that they are beyond my reach, now, they are here, in my hands. Everything is just as I want. Life cannot be better.

I do believe i...

Buồn cái con chuồn chuồn...

Uh thì mình cũng buồn

Mình không phải đứa thích than thở nên thành ra đôi khi càng cảm thấy mình cô đơn, vì buồn mà thích cố chôn vùi đi, kiếm việc mà làm, kiếm sách mà đọc, kiếm phim mà xem cho nó quên đi nỗi buồn, nhưng mà chẳng nói ra với ai cả. Mình cũng không thích viết ra cho người khác đọc được. Nhưng mà có lẽ buồn thì cần phải giải tỏa chứ giữ trong lòng cũng chẳng phải các...
