Pulling weight
We have all went on a group trip, whether it was with family or friends, we've done it. A perfect example of pulling your own weight is hiking. Everyone has to carry something. Bigger people take the bigger packs. The smaller people take the smaller packs. It all works out. But if the smallest person, who may just be carrying plates, silverware and cups, decides they don't want to carry those small things, its a small amount, but the person who ends up carrying that unnessecary weight, that might slow down the group a bit, not to mention the person who is doing nothing, just taking in the view. Thats what I Ho Chuan is like. If you have people there just to say "Ya, I'm on that awesome team that does all that cool stuff" When someone else is working their butt off to make that stuff happen.

What keeps us going
"I can't do it. Its to hard. Make it stop". When the human being is doing something like I Ho Chuan, the commitment starts to catch up to us. Some people listen to the voices. They slow down and stop the project, almost immediately. Other people keep going and ignore the voices. But keeping up all alone is difficult. When working on a project, people should keep 1 thing in mind. Why are you doing it in the first place? Are you raising money for the fundaisers or are you it for recogition. I've always thought "I want to write a story" yet I can never write anything more than a paragraph. I look at peoples posts, then mine and think "What the heck!" Its like my writings smaller then the most. But, back on topic, I ran out of inspiration. Got filled with doubt, and stopped. Don't let that happen.

Misbelief
Something has happened to us all (at least once) that we didn't believe actually happened. Whether it was cracking an iPhone screen to sky diving, we know it happened, yet we still ask someone if that ACTUALLY happened. On wednesday, my iPad feel out of its case and is in dire need of repair. Its a good thing I have a bluetooth typing case, or typing this would get rather difficult. Anyway, I continuously go and check the screen, telling myself, it didn't happen, it was just a dream. But no. Its always cracked, every time I check. I guess what I'm saying is, don't waste time convincing yourself that nothing happened, when you KNOW it happened.

Impact
IHC is a big part in all of our lives. It does different things for each us, things that almost nothing else could do. For example, earlier today, dad and I basically moved the basement upstairs. A flat screen tv, a leather couch and a table up 2 flights of stairs. Even with him carring most of the weight, it was heavy and rather difficult fo me. I then, after the moving was done, sat down and thought. I've been doing kung fu for almost 5 years, and must have done atleast 100,000 push ups. Thats a lot of arm muscle being built. Now, subtract that muscle, and I would still be the scrawny weak guy I was. But despite the grueling path to IHC completion, Its all worth it.
