I remember a story of mine that I will never forget

A couple years ago I was working with a couple friends

we became good friends in the end

There was this time we had a camp event over the weekend, and we were supposed to show up at it

But I had some stuff I had to take care of beforehand

So we agreed that they would go first. They would arrive during noontime.

And I would later meet up with them in the evening

So I finished my work. I got on the express bus.

It was an hour's ride. I got off at the interchange.

And when I got there it was already dark outside

I got my cellphone. I checked my Google map, and the campsite was around 3.5 kilometers away.

I thought to myself, "You know what? 3.5 kilometers, not a big deal. Let's just jog there."

It's gonna be good exercise

I could save some money. Why not?

So I started jogging

The place was quite remote, but the scenery was beautiful, the weather was nice. I was enjoying it.

At one point, I jogged past a fence

And I could see this big black dog sitting in front of a doghouse

It was quite intimidating

But I could see this chain to his collar, so I was thinking...

"Nah, he's not gonna come after me."

But just to make sure I looked over my shoulder, just to check again

And I saw the other end of the chain just lying loose on the ground fixed to nothing

In my mind, I was thinking...

"Darn it!"

The dog starts charging at me, and I'm like, "Oh my God, I'm dead..."

Wait! There's a fence.

I forgot there's a fence!

The next thing you know, the dog slides right under the fence like he's some MI6 agent doing that Tom Cruise #

And he's on my tail chasing me probably thinking...

Oh, you dumb human! You thought I was chained, huh?

Well tough luck!l

(ruff ruff)

That dog was chasing the heck out of me. I was like...

(Ah...)

Not the point

I finally lose the dog

I arrived at the campsite

It was pretty late so the gates were closed

I could hear people singing and chanting and laughing inside

So I started yelling...

Hey, it's me! Open the doors!

Nobody hears me

There's no doorbell. My friends weren't picking up... So what do you do?

I tossed my backpack over the wall, climbed it, jumped right in.

No big deal... had a lot of practice in high school

I was a good thing the police didn't see me cuz that would be a very awkward scene

Anyways, I walk inside...

I finally see my two friends, friend A and friend B

My friend A sees me and she says...

"Hey, you're here! How did you get here?

So I'm like, "Oh, I took the express bus

I got off at the interchange, and I ran here. At some point I had to sprint."

And she looks at me, and she's like...

"No, you didn't"

And I'm like, "what do you mean, 'I didn't.'?"

She goes off saying...

We got off at the interchange, too

"We had to take a taxi to get here. It took us 10 minutes to get here."

"There is no way you could have run here."

And I'm like, "Well first of all...

that taxi driver must have ripped you off."

Well I didn't actually tell her that, but second...

"It was 3.5 kilometers. It's not a big deal.

I run the distance all the time

I even got chased by this mad dog!

Look at me! I'm all sweaty. How do you explain this?"

I turn to my other friend, my friend B. And I'm looking for this sense of understanding, trying to convince her with my sincere eyes

I'm like... "Come on! You got to trust me, right?

Come on!...

It's me!

And what happened next, I will not forget for the rest of my life

And to my friends. Yes, specifically you, A and B...

I will talk about this story for the rest of my life...

Because it's a good story!

And it helps me keep you in my memory

So friend A sees me trying to convince friend B

So she turns to friend B... and with this serious look on her face...

Actually, she grabs her by the wrist, and she says...

"How can you trust him?"

"Don't let him trick you!"

"You know him!"

And I'm like, "Hello, well I'm still standing here..."

"You could like... wait until I leave, right?"

But in that moment, I had these two sudden, profound realizations of life

First of all, I really need to stop pranking my friends...

like I'm losing credibility like...

Second, which is most important of all. We need to get serious here.

People will never believe the things that they can't do themselves

People will never believe you've done something if they can't do it themselves

People are gonna try to talk you out of things that they can't imagine themselves

It is said that only an 8 dan Go player can understand how good a 9 dan player is

So quit the talking and do the walking

Sometimes you just gotta hush, and quietly do your thing

Cuz one day, your deeds will prove themselves

And that is my story
