An interesting lecturer

Once in a century, there would be a teacher or lecturer that would make you sit up and listen with interest. Today, I have encountered such a rare species :)

His introduction was really witty, not the usual "Hello, i am Mr xxxx". Self confessed that he is left handed (meaning he has illegible handwriting), dyslexic (can't spell to save his life) and a dental school repeating student (failure doesn't mean the end of the world).

Bored with practising dentistry, he eventually went into research field and later on helped set up dental schools around Australia. The very facility that I am currently studying in, was set up by him as well. My goodness, he is a genius!!

I googled his name, and found endless things that he has contributed or participated in. He has such an inquisitive nature and very passionate about the field that he teaches. Does he even find time to sleep, I wonder?

I don't think I can ever pack my life as full as he does. But I do realise that it is important to continue to explore and be excited about life. Sometimes just gotta step back, observe and never stop being curious.

Now, let me think of crazy stuff to do. I am now comtemplating whether I should keep a fish. A fighting fish?
