New Year resolutions

2011 has been a really fast year, it zoomed right past me without me realising what I had done to my life.

Why I failed:
Never needed to study with a lot of effort to get good results. In pri school, just had to redo my worksheets and read through my TBs. Also, I didn't have internet at that time. Maybe that's why I was always in the top three in the level. In sec sch, I only studied a day before tests or exams. It was the same for O Level. My results were no longer fantastic like in pri school, but I could still pass easily for math and sciences. I kept failing my humanities though. Now in JC, I probably couldn't get used to the fact that I had to put in much effort to do my hw and study. I only studied one day before JCTs, three days before my promos and more than a week for my supp papers. Preparing for the concert was one reason--> left with half a month. I kept telling myself to go study, but I get hooked into watching dramas or shows on my com. Also, some people around me kept on injecting me with the wrong attitude saying things like "Never mind la, there's still a lot of time left." or "You never study? HI-FIVE." But they probably studied more than me. I really need to make some friends who can influence me positively. =.=

Many times I had set goals for myself: NYGS, HCJC. But I didn't achieve any of them. I want to be doctor, that's only achievable through JC, but now I'm in danger of going to poly. What had I done with my life? What happened to the kid I was who was obedient and adorable? Of course it's not definite that I failed my supp papers and have to go to poly now, I'm just reflecting.

The day before my supp papers, I told mummy,"Don't scold me. I'm not confident". To my surprise, she said,"你可以回到一个月前吗?你要向前看。你一天前才讲,能做什么?就去poly咯,又不是判死刑。" I was shocked because I had expected her to scold me and not accept this because she expected me to get good results because I'm quite smart.

Oh yes, another factor may be because I have short attention span. I study for 10 to 20 min, I get distracted alrdy, which made me think: is the one hour study cycle really effective for me?


I have really learnt my lesson. I went to SP and NP's open house ytd. I wrote "I want to make my parents proud of me." on the balloon in SP. I think I really meant that. I'm deeply regretful for my actions and I promise myself to do my best to do all my hw and study for all my tests from now on. I went to SP and NP because I want to plan for my future and I'm probably interested in Accountancy if I go to poly. I really hope I can stay in JC so that I can try to be a doctor. I am really not sure of what course to take.

Recently, watched SHINee's Hello Baby and now I'm having a crush on Onew. Haha he's really funny. I've never seen somebody who falls more often than me. Also, he is very hardworking. He said in high school, he studied really hard and got 2nd in school and the Eng subs of what he said were "If you study hard and consistently, you will get good results no matter what."


Therefore, my New Year resolutions shall be to study hard no matter which path I take and not disappoint my family. And lose some weight. :)

The others are really good too. I don't really like "Desperate". It gives me the shivers... Not David A's problem. I just don't like that word. So I feel weird at the beginning and end of the song. The middle of the song is quite nice. David A took part in the composing in 2 songs in the album. Which are: A Little Too Over You and Don't Let Go Hope everyone can support them. GAH. THIS ALBUM WAS REALLY BETTER THAN I EXPECTED. Now I'm all over David A again lols. Honestly, I wasn't really expecting it to be this good. Cos you know. David Cook beat him again in sales. So I was thinking whether the album w...

One of the Things I Hate The Most

Today morning, Mummy flew to Penang to for my Ah Ma's wake, so my Er Gu Zhang is staying at my house while she's away, to ensure Daddy won't starve or fall down. Bcos I go to school until quite late. Oh yeah, lemme digress a bit first. I had my LSM3211 CA1 today, and although I didn't finish studying, I felt that it was so much better than last sem. What's different is that I tried harder to study this time, and yesterday night, I managed to stop myself from watching the latest episodes of 2D1N and 稍息立正我爱你! I know the proper thing to do is to finish studying, but I really did improve from last sem. For that, I need to praise myself, encourage myself, pat myself, because I learned that scolding myself is just going to discourage me. I have been a bad student since secondary school, and I think I've improved the most in this period of time. I am a perfectionist. I am not praising myself, because that's not a good thing. My brain used to turn off every time t...

Update

 Ok so yesterday I went to bai nian at godparents' house. Godma asked me in front of like 6 people that I don't know whether I still want Lego. And apparently recently there was an episode where Mama introduced the Godsis as her goddaughter to someone, and Godsis asked “为什么这么见外?” Then Mama asked me if I was willing to be called her 'daughter' as well. In my brain I was thinking "wtf?". I had never registered in my mind that there was such a big difference, especially since they had no biological daughters. Hello I call you Mama and Daddy, not Godma and Godpa. So maybe it was just me who thought that it's no big diff. But sometimes the diff becomes so painfully obvious. Then I said sure. Sometimes my brain gets stuck in the present. I can't find words to defend myself. Only after thinking about it for hours, or in the shower or in bed, then I find the words coming to me. Godsis is one of a kind la. Her actual surname is Chua but she says her surname is ...
