			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During my preparation for the CPA exams, there were times when I didn&#8217;t want to study, think, work, or study. I just needed a break, something that would cheer/freshen me up quickly, or just sooth my mind, heart and soul. There were times when all I wanted was to go to bed with a smile, and there was not much that could do that [to me]&#8230; During those days, I would just rush to <a href="http://1000awesomethings.com/" rel="nofollow" title="1000 Awesome Things"  target="_blank">1000 awesome things</a> and read a few posts, and by the end of it all, I would be happy that I was alive, and I looked forward to tomorrow. It made me realize, again and again, that there was more to life&#8230; that I could choose what to focus on&#8230; that in the world of galaxies, the micro and the nano matter. So, here is a shout out to Neil! His book has been out a couple of weeks now&#8230; so if you have a moment, go take a look at his site, and if you share my feeling, grab the book of awesome!</p>
<p>Here is one of the posts that I remember reading way back when and <a href="http://1000awesomethings.com/2009/10/07/662-fixing-your-wedgie-when-noones-lookin/" rel="nofollow" title="Fixing your wedgie when noone's looking"  target="_blank">I laughed my heart out</a>.</p>
<p>Here is one of the posts that <a href="http://1000awesomethings.com/2010/02/18/566-unforgettable-friends/" rel="nofollow" title="Unforgettable Friends"  target="_blank">made me &#8230; swallow hard</a>.</p>
<p>Here is one of <a href="http://1000awesomethings.com/2010/03/24/542-wrong-colored-foods/" rel="nofollow" title="Wrong colored food"  target="_blank">my many favorites</a>.</p>
