Page 31 of 366: Blessing in disguise
Yesterday, I was out and about with ama that I missed out the checking the pre-exam result. But maybe it was a blessing in disguise because I thought (and kinda feel that) I might be failing one or even worst, two subjects this semester. I don't mind repeating one of the subjects that I targeted fail but I do mind repeating the other because the subject is just so freaking susah. I remember I had only two hours of sleep just to finish my assignment for this particular subject. And I don't understand the textbook at all while the slides, I have no comment so it kinda demotivates me to study that subject. Imagine repeating the whole ordeal again? Nuh-uh.
Last night around midnight I was watching Hawaii Five O (the remake version) alone (as I usually do) and as I felt hungry, I decided to make myself mee sedaap and Anlene milk. When I was making my drink, my phone suddenly rang to Pretty Girls Rock by Keri Hilson and I immediately knew it was Hany because I set that ringtone specifically for her (I know you'll have the 'awwwww...' moment here hun. Don't lie to me :p). I was like, "why is she calling me in the middle of the night? Mesti ada apa2 tok." I answered, and she told me that we can check our result online at that moment so I was like, "crap. Doomsday." And at the same time she told me her result and I am soooooooooooooo haaaapppppppyyyyyy for her! To think that she feared of repeating a first year paper scares her (and me) because c'mon. Who fails first year subjects right? But I do know how she feels because I felt that during the previous semesters.
Surprisingly this time, when I checked my result this time it didn't lagged or anything and honestly, I was a bit afraid that it came so fast because honestly, I didn't expect to know about the results until this morning. And the moment I clicked the "current result", the first thing I saw was Financial Management, C+. I was like, "thank you God! I passed that damn subject!" At the same time I was calling Hany too and she was sooooooooooooo haaaaaaaaaappppppyyyyy for me too because I passed that subject as she, of all people knows how worried I was of that subject. I looked down, and I saw 2 A-; and one of it is Malay Language. I got a freaking A- for Malay Language. Hahahaha! My BM sucks you know, so getting an A- makes me feel like I'm on top of the world and a prove to mummy that my BM is not so bad after all. And I looked up again, and I saw Managerial Accounting, C-. But I kinda expected that and to be frank, I don't mind repeating this subject because my accounting foundation is not so strong so I hope by repeating it, I can get a better result.

After feeling satisfied seeing my result, I immediately texted Rachel to tell her about that and this morning she told me the good news about her and of course, I am soooooooooooooo haaaaaaaappppppyyyyy for her too! I'm friends with smart people, and I get positive vibes from them. I'm thankful for that :). However, I heard some bad news about my friends failing some subjects too (just like me) and luckily this time, I didn't feel so down in the dumps that I ignored other people who obviously have bigger problems than I do and manage to tell Rachel to motivate them so that we can graduate on time, together.

Another 3 more semester to go for me. And I hope that it will be a smooth sailing journey for me, and also my friends that we can graduate on time. I really want to wear that square hat so badly, and that scroll is not only for me, but also for my parents, and my grandparents and my family who believes in me.

Alas my dear friends, I hope we can work hard and cooperate just like we did last semester because I know, by working together we can produce a better result not only for our self but also by seeing the joy of our friends we can be happy too. I can sense that this semester is gonna get tougher and tougher therefor sticking together is really necessary.
Let's put up our A-game and I'm sure victory and success will come to us. Before I end this post, I wanna share a video. This video have nothing to do with motivation though, it's just for laughs.
Love,
Marcy.
