Adrian Tan is alive!

...and recently gave a convocation speech and advising graduates to multitask. (Thanks to Adrianna.)

All wonderful stuff - stuff that graduates like to hear, anyway. At graduation I would like to hear that I can play all day, love someone, decide not to compromise on the truth and be as complete an asshole as I wish.

Now, at 30-something, I disagree. You can choose only one because that one thing takes everything out of you and there is no such thing as giving 400%. Also, people telling you how to live your life the way they live it is seriously annoying.

I think speeches that tell graduates not to mess up the world is less harmful and rather agreeable. What about job hints for all to consider? That's very useful as well. Oh, and, what about the kind of bosses you will meet and how to deal with them?
