the most humbling experiences in your life

one night, I played 5 on 5 pickup basketball against some fellow asians at my church and our team lost 50-49. we even had home court advantage since they were visiting, and we seemed to have better players too. It truly was humbling

and I don't mean to be a tryhard by saying "oh I did drugs or whatever." that's what I was looking for - a good experience. I ended up being fooled and bought 3 e pills laced with heroin or something very obscure. It had no positive effect, and I was bedridden for like 3 hours while being tormented throughout my body. That humbling experience made me more conscience in seeking God's help.

there was so much zest for life but now pride is almost broken. I'm wondering what yall went through that made you a modest, refined individual.

moderation is realization that one can always be ignorant. arrogance is only allowed when one is above and beyond intelligence. make sure you are confident, and make sure you are willing to learn, in order to not be stuck in the mistakes of stupidity or the mistakes of the assumptions of your intelligence.

i've got your intelligence right here. *points at erection*.

i work with the some of the most talented guys in the music industry so i get schooled every day. Most humbling, having to conduct the NYP. I was 30. IT was just a one time thing but considering guys like Mahler, Bernstein, Toscanini , i mean people that are pretty much on the same level as say Beethoven , and then having to face the orchestra with them , the best musicians in the world knowing they are the best knowing the history give you that look like what the fuck do you think you are doing. That one took a few benzos and some adderal to balance it out so i didn't pass out.

Almost dying and then thinking for almost a week that I was possibly in a coma/dead and just dreaming I was ok/alive... it's humbling when you look at life with a renewed perspective

Probably going through a brutal 7-hour series of interviews and 4 additional phone interviews complete with full grilling of my technical knowledge with regard to microcomputer architecture when I was trying to get the job at Intel, only for them to not hire me. It was very humbling, considering I had been in college for 5 years trying to get a job like that. Looking back, I had no business working there, since microprocessors aren't really my area of expertise, but it was humbling to put in so much effort only to be denied at the very end. Just had to pick up my skirt and look for another job, and I think I did just fine

Re: Re: the most humbling experiences in your life

the experiences people went through have definitely been eye-opening for me.

yeah I guess there is more to life than basketball, asians, and church. maybe my experiences are just scratching the surface of a real humbling experience.

Ironically, it was yesterday. Had medical semiotics exam and had to show on a patient how a manoeuvre was done. It was one of the simplest ones in the book, however I had skipped those and practiced a lot on the difficult ones.

In front of the hospital chief and the doctor that was taking care of my group, I failed big time with it at which point the chief asks me why I didn't study. Never felt so low in my entire fucking life. I knew all the other stuff so passed with a high mark, but didn't even have the guts to look them in the eye.

wow you really posted at the right time because I'm studying to become a personal support worker and I really need to know how to deal with patients too. I respect your story.

Deal with patient as in examinations or how to handle them in conversations?


Posted by zyklon-jay on Jun-19-2012 20:02:

Personal support workers can't believe in God, because I'm pretty sure that they don't hire liars.

well PSW's are a notch below other health care workers like Nurses. I think you're doing something much harder than me, so maybe I should know my role and shut my mouth.

If I forced jesus on others at the facility, I'd probably get fired before they even throw a thrid strike.


Posted by zyklon-jay on Jun-19-2012 20:07:

so you actually change the bed pan?


Posted by Mattsanity. on Jun-19-2012 20:08:

^yes. I can't do certain things like sticking equipment inside them.


Posted by zyklon-jay on Jun-19-2012 20:09:

you'll stop believing in God after you see cancer dumps.


Posted by Mattsanity. on Jun-19-2012 20:13:

God really does allow BS to occur, but I believe he has a master plan that will benefit the world in the end.


Posted by zyklon-jay on Jun-19-2012 20:19:

yeah, the rear end. cancer shits.


if you really think about it, the secret to life is procreating and taking big shits.
