I know, I am rereading it for the... dunno... 108th time at the moment? Oh study? I'll get to that... I'll get to that...
Wouldn't these go under the category of "user error" ? j/k
It very well could be, but I prefer to blame things on machines because they usually do not talk bak :-D
I didn't your Chinese name has somethign to do with a Jap woman that your mum was talking to...
Oh it's just that last word, the Japanese lady said it's good for babies born in the year of snake to have something plant-ish in their names :-D
ps. you know she's in TW now, because it is closer to the ex
Yeah, Annie told me, rolling her eyes as she did so by the way.
using make up to cover them does not help it get better!
I know! But I need to go out don't I X-D
Oh, speaking of "wishing death multiple times a day but not really meaning it." Remember that time you sweared on your life to do something for tinetine and you didn't... at home, you kicked the back door? as you usually do... except that time your foot went through the glass.... then you started worrying for a bit that you really didn't mean to swear on your life like that... :P
Yeah, god or whatever higher forces out there should not take my death-wishing too seriously, 98% of the time I am simply throwing a tantrum, 1% of the time I am lying, the other 1% of the time I just need to sleep really, really badly.
So I've decided to take Wed off to study, just as well it's a Thursday PM exam.
It took me quite a while to get used to the new, "improved", exam-be-damned Sally. Man, don't people change!
Oh, btw, how do I do this thing and do the tagging bit?
Oh you just c&P the meme questions (in italic) and answer them in your lj, if you want to say you're tagged by my username type [lj user="_rp_zeal_"] substitute [ with < of course.

Well well... the problem is, so far in PG study, even though I say I hate exams / tests, I've actually performed better in them.
This time, there is less materials that are examinable, I know which areas / articles the exam questions will base on and we get to pick 3 out of 5 questions. Of course I don't know everything off top of my head but even if I had to go in to exam now, I can't fail. (I hope ^^;;;)
Unfortunately, after the last assignment, I've gone into the holiday no more uni study mode already... Yah~ Now it's like wait a second lady, bring yourself back to reality... you must study... but but but I will pass.
Oh, that's not forget the fact the I will never get an A+ from Marketing PG, or even an A.. So why bother?
From the previous two years, this paper has the record of giving out bad grades....
I've luckily got an A+ from my last semester's paper (a stats PG paper), which I've lost just over 11% before we go into exam (80% internal, 20% exam).... only got 85% for exam and some miracle happened that I got an A+. (made me check the final grade for like 3 times over 2 days just to make sure I wasn't going crazy!!!) So if I do get a B+ in this paper, I still average out to A- for the whole PG study. Given that I don't want to study further... really those grades should not matter.
I know I used to get so upset with grades and I had some fun experiences in the PG study... I slack off, I get A-, I worked twice as hard, I get A-, finally I work my ass off... I can an A for a 15% assn eventually. Meanwhile, others were getting A or A+s, oh and some were getting B+ regardless of what she does. Some were worse off. That's when you realise, after the first semester in PG (or first assn from that lecturer), either the effort required to get a higher grade is like 3 times more for each 1 extragrade after A-, Or I have something written on my face says "B+ / A- student".
Then you think, does it really matter? Why should I get upset by it (sounds like I'm not but i've rambled on for like 10 mins already - or am I in denial?)
I don't know, I guess I didn't get the reward and direction I needed to try even harder. Not to mention that I have to work and other things too. It's quite different when you just study full time and that is all you have... (well bf was a distraction but yeah)...
Anyways, that's the long story to answer your comment.
But yeah I definitely have changed but not by much in a sense (because I don't care for a higher grade not because I truly deeply don't, it's because I know I can't do it anyway, so why stress over it?)
:P
