I put chess on my resume for work. It is the heart of who I am. It taught me all the foundations.

 

I know a lady. I saw her resume.

Graduate of University of Tokyo.

Graduate of UCLA.

Graduate of Tea Ceremony School.

I was impressed with the Tea Ceremony School. You can't just gulp down your drink, like you "ain't got no home training."

I don't understand that.  I need revision and extention.

Somebody revived an old thread.

But it's a good question, which deserves a good answer.

Here is a hint.

Just like the Tea Ceremony School. If something is important to you, even if people don't know about it, when you explain why it is important to you, people will respect it.

That goes not only for college application, job application. It goes for everything in life.

Its alive thing is from the original frankenstein where he reanimated the sewn together body. 

And, like the monster, it just won't die once people start posting, even if it was 3 or 5 or whatever years ago.

I drink more green tea than anyone on the face of this planet.  I'd say about 12 cups.  I play an hour of chess or so every day as exercise, not yet memorizing openings and openings denied, but appreciating the brain exercise and theory.  Some things are a foundation.  It's not shifting sand.  It's fresh and new every morning.  I don't need frankenstein this morning, I'm too busy looking forward with resurrection.  God himself died for us and no one gives a damn.  There's your frankenstein.
