I really really don't know how to feel for this semester. On one hand I have so many things to keep in my small memory booklet and on the other hand there are issues and stuff which I want to forget as soon as possible.
Happy that my tennis has picked up it's game, my backhand has improved, my footwork too. Thank you to Guoan, Lionel, Steve, Ken, Zhi Hao for the drills and the many tie-breakers we played during training. We shall own IHG tennis this year :D
Also glad that VCF has somewhat became a part of my life. And the many friends I have made, Alicia, Bernice, Christopher, Dennis, Shuyan....and the many more. I pray that we will grow together in Him through all the discussions and the bible studies that we have. Watch out, next semester there will be more exciting stuff going on =) Victor, Hui-en, Min Sun, Daniel, Julie, it has been great working with you guys(and girls) and I'm looking forward to the new semester to do more of His work with you all. Expect great things to happen =)
And yes, not forgetting all the other friends, me fellow niggas, Fung Hong, Fair Yi and Jieyu, we spent a lot of time in LT 2, sleeping in lecture and crapping during lunch =) Maybe will make a trip down to Malacca to see you guys =)
Matthias, Christine, Ming Hui, you have all been great coursemates, adding me into your circle eventhough I'm kind of like the loner. Haha and also for lending me your tutorials :p (I will not be lazy already next semester)
Dina, who took one module with me. Haha are you thinking more mathematically now? 'Simple and profound'. That's the only profound thing that I took away from this module haha Thank you so much for the time together in lecture and also in tutorial. Haha. Hope we ace in when the results come out.
Finally, not forgetting Ying Qian. This kepo girl has been the one lending me a listening ear everytime(okay most of the time) when I am in one of my emo moods. It really helped me through a lot of difficult periods and also encouraged me that the world is not going to end so soon. Terima kasih! Arigato! Vanakam! Thank you! Glad to see you well again. Take lots of care ya.
Well, in the midst of all the good things that has happened, there are still downturns in life. I'm glad that through these things, I manage to learn a few essential lessons in life.
Peer evaluation has always been a part of me since I went to school and when I could not measure up to the smartest in the class, man it will take a lot to comfort me. It was this semester that I realised that being the smartest should not be the goal of studying, rather exploiting what you understand in a particular topic to you benefit. Yes we try our best to be one of the top, but when there is failure, we have to take heart that we did learn something, just not that intense as other people. And this should be the main focus of studying, to learn, and not for exams. To gain real knowledge, not exam knowledge which after the exams are deleted from the brain.
I can say that I am not very happy now with my papers this semester, but one thing is for sure, I will not be put down by it. Every module I take, I do my best and let God do the blessing. I am very sure that there is a reason for everything that happens. Yeah so....going to take a nap and later prepare for my last paper on Saturday. Cheers! =)
