Week Review

Sometimes, people said that leave everything as natural as possible, but i say instead of leaving everything as natural as it is, why not do some changes. People just don't realised that no matter what we do, we have to put in efforts but whether we succeed, it will be another story.

This past few days is all just about the orientation. Whatever it is, it is finally over for now. But i got to know some truth which made me really frustrated. Well, people do something to achieve what they want, even it means to sacrifice others' future. Two of the people that i know actually belong to this category. One of them doesn't really made me that frustrated but the other one does. I mean i really love her, though not with all my heart due to what happened to me in the past, but still i love her. Anyway, that 'her' refers to my current girlfriend now, Rachel. Her friend, Natalie, though not her real name but that is what i called her, wanted to break us up. I was so frustrated. She treats boys as though like a soccer ball and Rachel as a trash bin, i supposed. She made it as though both of us break up naturally. What she told me and what she told her are totally different. Speaking of it, my blood really boils up. But at least everything is solved now, i hope.
The other one was that, about 9 of us are nominated to attend an elective program in TP. Though it is not my wish to go TP but in case i can't go to SP, which i really wanted to go to, i can still have a shot in TP, isn't it? But that friend of mine actually wanted me to give up my spot for him. I mean teacher selected me and now that i can increase my chance to go to a poly and he wanted me to give up that chance? NO WAY! Anyway, out of 9, only about 6 or 7 of us are selected.
Well, that the update for this week. Sayonara! :)

Results Review

My results had fell more than 0.4, causing the accumulative GPA to 3.257. haix~ Tmr is the last day of orientation program and seriously, i am totally wore out. Came back to school and just want to lay down on the bed and take a very short nap. 2 days of orientation just came and gone.

Back to the topic, my reults may fall by more than 0.4 but the accumulative GPA saved me and allowed me to be at the top 25% among the BIT classes. That is something to be proud of, isn't it? The competition in my class is getting stronger and stronger and i certainly felt some threats. Have to bring back all the 'A's and 'B's or else i may be eliminate from the competition. Teacher nominate some of us to attend the elective programme in Temasek Polytechnic. It may be far from where i stay but to me, it is an opportunity of a lifetime. I always wanted to be on the top 25 list and i make it. Not to be so greedy, hopefully from top 25, i can reach top 10. Besides it being an opportunity of a lifetime, i certainly hope to fulfill other things while i am there but although i feel that i will not fulfill it.

Well, that's it for today! Hopefully there will be more good or not so bad news that i can put again here in the upcoming days as long as this blog lives.

Targets (Apr 08 - Apr 09)

After 5 weeks of break, finally is back to school next week. Playing computer games is all i do this school break and nothing else. Erm... not really nothing else cos on the 1st day of school break, i met up with my gf and after that day, i seriously had nothing else except playing games.

Last term was a disaster for me. I remembered in my previous post, i mentioned about my GPA dropped by 0.4. I thought it was nothing at first but now, i got a change in my views. Others can get 4.0 but why not me? All the while, my grades goes to the top of the mountain and back down again. Last term, my GPA was like near the summit of the mountain. The peak of the mountain seems so near but yet so far. Exactly what must i do to reach it? Whatever it is, no use crying over spill milk. There will be April Intake Orientation and i think i will be part of it. I hate all these orientation, partly because it wasted away those times which i can study and partly because, well the time-table for the next semester really is comfortable. I supposed the modules for next semester will be tougher and that explains the comfortable time-table we have.

Back to the main subject, my GPA may dropped by 0.4 but i am hungry to increase it by 0.5 and slowly reached the peak of the mountain. So for semester 1, my target is 3.7 and semester 2, hopefully it reached 4.0 and that is the peak of the mountain.

Ultimate Achievement (or not?)

Finally, i had my results for all my modules. The total may not be as good as the previous one but then i am still happy with it and at the same time, disappointed with it.

For my Business Communication module (BCM), i got an 'A' for it. For my E-Biz and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), i got a 'B'. Actually for ERP, i don't really had much confidence in cos, well for all the class tests, i didn't really study for them and i copied. I don't like to study for class tests cos' i don't think it is even necessary. Eventually, it will be your end-mod examinations that determine your final score, isn't it? That's all for the happy part. As for the disappointment part, i got a 'D' for my Entrepreneurship (ETP). This may be a team project but i don't really blame anyone. I didn't really push my teammate to do those project. I count myself lucky that we got a 'D' for this module cos' i thought that we would get a 'F' instead and had to retake this module but well, we all got through this and are spared from retaking. Because of this 'D', my overall GPA dropped by 0.4, which is 3.257. Look on the bright side again, at least it didn't drop to below my target or should i say, my expectations.

Looking at this 'D', i told myself that i don't want to see another 'D' ever again in my results. 'C' and 'D' is not what i want. What i want is an 'A' and a 'B'! That's all! As for my target for the next two semesters, i am aiming for the overall GPA of 3.5 and above.

Investigation 2408

Great! Now i am in a dilemma. After hearing two sides of the story, who should i trust or should i believe? My girlfriend or her friends? Talking about life, in life we all face many problems, any types of problems. When these problems come face to face with you, you will have to find a way to solve it. In this case, i got my own way in solving it but whether it will succeed, it is still a question mark.

Different people have different way in dealing things. But if one way don't work, we got to use other way to solve our problems. It is easy for all of us to say that all these problems can be solved as easy as ABC, but when the problems come, you will really get a heavy headache. You could say that i am lucky cos i am able to encounter a lot of problems in my life as you can read from my previous entries. Each encounter teaches me something valuable. When someone hates you, they will try all means to destroy you. That is why most of the time, i choose to keep everything in a very low profile. Whenever i have a problem, i would ask myself, "Does this problem similar to my past encounters?" If yes or maybe, i would do something about it and hopefully turned the situation around. Regarding this situation that i am in now, i wanted so much to trust my girlfriend but something in me is building a 'defence wall', as the result, i want to trust her but i can't, until i know exactly what was going on... I guess this is natural cos i have been hurt twice and in order to prevent me from getting hurt again, my soul is building a 'defence wall'.

No matter what, i had to get to the bottom of this so that i won't get hurt, so that i won't trust and wronged the wrong person.
