So I worked since 2009 to 2021 to venture back into the Vietnamese community in 3 major concentrated areas (Downtown, Scarborough and Mississauga).
In 2008, while at university in Scarborough I finally met Vietnamese in my studies but could not figure out how to ‘grow’.
There were obstacles. I did not fit. I did not fit maybe because I was from Durham Region or because I was a different culture origin???
As a Vietnamese guy raised in Ajax, we go to Scarborough to study usually. Going to Oshawa to study did not feel right. LINK HERE: https://firstgenprogrammer.com/davidnguyen/index.php/why-go-to-post-secondary-school-in-scarborough-rather-than-oshawa/
David returned to Scarborough in 2009 to study computers then realized he got messed up by people generally. Naturally people of any background hate and degrade people at school and try to dismiss people entirely if they have something positive.
Anyways school is not real in the real world really. People must work, eat, learn and sleep regardless of schooling or not. School teaches 0.000000001% of what you learn in the real world.
Was life external? Was life internal? What did I see? I wanted ‘grow’ but I needed to get around obstacles … To ‘grow’ I needed to think and work externally. In short, David needed maths.
David returned to computers in 2017 in Oshawa and finally finished something in 2021.
David reached out and saw the differences in life in Toronto compared to life in Oshawa.
What were the differences? I guess it depends on age (experience) mostly … Some people like to study and grow more with a full, full life. The older more experienced people allow people to also have a full life.
LIFE
| School | School setups clear guidelines on what is right and wrong usually |
| Job status | There is also a hierarchy and caste system implemented kind of. The most open people will employ you. The more open their culture is, then they will employ you. |
| Life status | If you are mature (due to simply life and everyday stressors overtime), you finally solo everything with a compatible friends like the pioneers of American companies in the 1960s-1970s. You have enough reason to solo and have enough knowledge to solo. |
| Life after doing something | You still solo. The people you meet that did not solo because of whatever reason will never understand soloing. Only when people are stuck then they try to solo. So you solo with people that want to solo with you. Keep flying that kite. |
| What is life | I had to solo at the end. No one would hire me. |
