My Return

For the past month, school work stole my life away. Apologies for my temporary leave from blogging.

Right now, i'm on a 3-month holiday. No intention to job seek for i rather spend more time with friends and family whom i've more or less neglected for the past few months. Furthermore, this could very well be my last holiday before i go for attachment in Yr 2 and start my career upon graduation. Time flies...

Talking about time, i realised how bad my time management was after a year in NTU. More often than not, i was making up for lost time, cutting back on sleeps to complete my assignments and projects... Towards my semestral exams, it was evident i had little time left for revision.

This time round, i expect my GPA to be lower than last sem. Thanks to the possibly first 'C' grade in my transcript. Ugly it may be but it beats retaking the module. For once, i simply hope and pray i will not fail that module. Expectations set low, prepared for the worst, taking things in my stride. I've lost the drive.

For that, i detest myself at times. I promised myself to work harder this semester. I tried to but i ran out of steam once the projects' deadlines drew near. For several nights, i stayed up beyond 2am working on projects. Sigh...

How nice would it be if i could had the brains of the Rafflesians and the hardworkingness of the Hwa Chong peeps. Their abilities truly amaze me. I can't hold a candle to them. Simply brilliant people.

There i go whining and lamenting again. For the past year, i doubted my abilities time and again. One Uni friend even pointed out my lack of self-confidence. Yeah, i can feel it slipping away from me. Recently, he said this to me, "The reason we are in NTU is because we are equally competent." Thanks dude. But still, i know my limits.

Year 1 officially ended last week. Lots of ups and downs throughout the year. I relish the times i truly enjoyed myself in school. The most memorable project on accounting. Although my group didn't do well, i had no regrets. The learning process was fantastic. Thanks guys.

Year 2 will be a roller coaster ride. Gotta embrace myself for it. Now that i know where my weakness lies, i strive to see improvements in the next few semesters.

Time was my enemy but will never be again...
