choices

yes, this is an update of my life.

i remember myself saying school term not really having much time and what not. well,  shall build on that by moving on to say that being busy really makes one ponder hard and prioritise which aspect of your daily live comes first and what not. yes, tough choices.

revision. sufficient sleep. CCA time. social gatherings. family time. me time.

those are probably the main aspects day in day out as i live my life in NUS. i used to able to even out the time pretty well among those aspects. however, it seems it isn't the case now. so what have i decided to reduced? yes, reduce but not that i don't eliminate it.. since eliminating any would probably be as good as chopping of one of my limbs. to be frank, i think i have reduced sleep time and family time the most. i have slightly less me time too. at times, reducing any of the three i just mentioned makes me feel guilty but i would always try to make up to them now and then.

ohh well, no one said university would be easy and what not. i'm just surviving as much as i can and hopefully emerge in a few years time into the real working world with minimal regrets.

post results

yes, this is an update of my life.

so i have officially got back all the results for my midterms. well, honestly.. just really mixed feelings. for some i think i exceeded my own expectations while some others fell slightly short of my expectations. if i have known earlier, i would have rush a little more when i was doing my papers given the ridiculous shortage of time. if i have known earlier, i would not have left questions blank for they would give easy pity marks.

ohh well, what's done is done. guess moving on i have to really understand each topic inside out. it is not longer like in JC or secondary school where you can just know the key concepts and what not. another month left before i take on the final exams again. harsh reality but i really hope i will have the strength and perseverance to really pull through it all. hell, it's only my year 1 semester 1 and it's challenging. i should start getting used to the pain and stress then. most would not say university is easy. of course, some teachers in JC have said so though.. ohh more freedom more relaxed less stressful. for this one moment i shall forget what you have done for me and say "DAMN YOU, LIAR".
