Failure.
Sure, no one enjoys failing. But failure is actually what makes our lives purposeful. There is something to achieve at the end of the day. Failing actually makes one stronger. Being able to bounce back from setbacks and come back stronger than before isn't easy.
After dropping into the bottom 80 in level ranking, I made it a promise to myself to get into the top 40. It was impossible to achieve in Sec 2, given the fact that it was too late to save my grades. Sec 3 was no different, since I had to face my horrendous Amath result. F9 throughout the year, beat that. Things took a turn for the better come Sec 4, where my grades went up to an A1 and it never came down ever since then. (Only to A2, but still a distinction so whatever) My hard work paid of during Os, when I got an A2. Was expecting an A1, but I guess an A2 isn't all that bad either.

Made a plan to actually work hard, starting from next week. Yes, my MYCT has just ended, but no one says you can't study right? So what if others label me as a mugger, at least I'm taking charge of my future. Promos are 4 months away, and I really can't afford to fail it. Really disappointed in myself. But what's the use anyway. I am gonna be wasting 3 hours of my life trying to salvage myself from a situation that seems rather pointless.
What happened to the subject I used to have so much interest in? What happened to the hardworking me?
What happened to me?
