Went my dad's place...
Kena lectured by my godfather( dude from MOE ) bout my results.
Preview of whatever's Ms Teo's gonna say on Monday.
I guess having the ability but not using it fully is more troublesome than not having any ability at all sometimes.
I'm not doing well enough... not for my abilities, not for entering university, not for scholarship. Its all very obvious, actually, but it seems being in an environment where passing all H2 subjects is considered good can make me forget something that obvious...I'm just relatively good, but not good.
What I'm trying to say is this. It seems the 2 years in CJC has made me forgot that there's lots of smarter people out there. People who were all around me, in those DLSS top classes, people from SJI, people like... Rui (haha forgive me, you're the only one I admit to be smarter than me). Back then I was just normal, average, maybe even below average. I still needed to study to stay in the competition.
Then, I screwed up O levels, came to CJC, and everything became too easy.
Minimum effort worked miracles for one and half years. Until now.
I dunno how many times I've told myself this, but its about time I studied as though I was competing at that level again.
As my godfather puts it : "it doesn't matter if CJC is only able to produce one person who can enter university, just make sure you are the one, stop comparing against those within your school".
Great response when I presented my only defence that "352 people had one or none H2 passes" , according to brother paul.
Slackening down on the 7 habits was a mistake. Its time to get my act together.
