So much frustration...

My degree finally arrived today. Yeay~ 
Do I sound excited enough for you? How fun...

It does not change anything, my results is still low. If it is any help, it only enables me to prepare my documentations for work soon. 

I am still very frustrated with myself. 
In retrospect, if it was possible for me to foresee this result that I got, perhaps it would be better for me to allocate less time to worry about my studies and enjoy myself a lot more. To be honest, throughout the whole year, this was all I can think of, yet take a look at where I am now, miserable and numb. 

No use to fret on spilled milk, huh. 

 

This is what you get when you do what you love instead of what you are good at, people! 

Listen to me, if a good and bright future is what you want, then DON'T, under any circumstances, EVER DO/ THINK about what you like. ONLY do what you are good at. Because at the end of the day, values such as passion and interest count for absolutely NOTHING. They are only illusions that gets into you head, who has nothing better to do than to persuade you to read a little more about a certain topic. 

Why bother knowing more than you need to anyway, right? 
All you are required to do is to know just enough to get through the exams, that is all. 

To think that I am irrational due to that fact that my frustration has got over me, that is absurd. Lets take a quick look at the data, shall we?

Of all of my friends, I can only point to a very few among the passionate who got excellent grades. The rest, well, they are mostly indifferent, yet they still got better grades than me, to say the least. So yeah, having said that, I presume these passionate bunch are simply outliers, given how few they are. 

Maybe I should have not worried about my grades at all back then. I should have just sit at home and play Call Of Duty all day instead of attending lectures and classes. Unfortunately, even after much effort I only manages to get low results, with even less effort I am bound to fail instead. Kuang3~

So kids, a piece of advice: find out what you're good at and work at it! Don't end up like me; I am good at nothing, so I'm pretty much condemned to be screwed.
 
I leave the rest to you.......

I have an idea, lets make a video project!

Last week, days before I sat for my first paper, I had this crazy idea for a video.  Given that this is the third and final year for my friends and me, I figured why not film a video about it. In the video, the host could ask them questions like: what is your best experience here so far?  how do you feel about finishing your studies soon?  will you miss being a university student? having studied overseas for the past three years, what are your words of advice to students back home?  then somewhere in there, if possible, we could even make some sort of a shout out to our sponsors! Thank you this/ that for making our dreams come true or something like that.  Alright, maybe the questions sound a bit cliche, but I am hoping that the participants would give out interesting responses to them. I had a vision of filming them in various location, just so that they will be more relaxed as the camera is rolling. In fact, the more chilled I can get them to be...

I should seriously punish myself for being so lazy in updating my blog. It's not that I am that busy that I do not have the time to actually do it, but the truth is, I am just plain lazy to do so. I mean, yeah, with my tablet and my smartphone, I should have been more active. I love my Tuesdays, not only because this is the day when I get to download new episodes of HIMYM as well as Gossip Girl, but particularly because I have no lectures on the day. Okay, maybe in the near future I might have some tutorials to attend, but since all UCL lectures are in two-hours block, an hour of tutorial goes by right before you know it. But they do get pretty boring and sleepy at times too, or maybe that's just me. Second year, time sure flies by so quickly. I can still vividly recall the memories of last year in my head, both the nice and the bad ones. For those of you who might still remember, I for one have a 'special' reason why I despise Sundays so much. Some of you out the...

Kisah si ayah dan anaknya....

Image
Today I would like to share a story with all of you; a story about a father and his son. Si anak sedang menuntut di sebuah kolej di ibukota, manakala bapanya tinggal di kampung bersama si ibu. Pada suatu hari, si bapa menelefon anaknya untuk bertanya khabar. Mereka berdua mula berbual tentang pelajaran si anak, kesihatan dan perihal keadaannya di sana; suatu dialog yang sering didengari antara seorang bapa dan anaknya. Setelah beberapa minit, si bapa memulakan ceritanya. Rupa-rupanya, si bapa ingin bercerita tentang kereta baru yang dihadiahkan oleh si abang kepadanya. Si bapa bercerita dengan penuh semangat sehinggakan si anak yang berada di hujung talian mula tersenyum. ‘Alhamdulillah, betapa gembiranya bapaku dapat kereta baru’, detikan hati si anak. Kemudian, si bapa pula memberitahu yang dia kini berada di hospital. Si bapa jatuh tergelincir seawal pagi tadi semasa dia baru sahaja keluar dari rumah. Dia mengalami kecederaan ringan di dagu dan kaki. Setel...
