Haha... ning, your 'serious talk' also made me feel serious :P
Just take it easy, this is the fact of life, but what is life all about? Life is having fun! haha... need to use the quote from the speaker of that workshop... :)

Most important thing is do it correctly and wisely :P You can learn it slowly, take some time to learn, to experience, and enjoy the process... that's it all about. We can talk more when you come back...

Wah, ning, your healthy lunch pack looks good and delicious, i am thinking i shud prepare it for myself sometimes, hehe...
