Everyday in school I get reminded of the time I have left till the start of the 'A' levels. And the Prelim results are just dismal, not just for me, but I'm sure a lot of people out there are actually feeling the same frustration as I do, you know, that feeling like all that studying has gone to waste, and the upcoming exam is a really important one, but paradoxically, the only thing you can do is study more. And you don't know how to go about it anymore. You don't believe you can anymore. And its just a slippery slope from here. And then on the way down the unfairness hits you. The people working less getting better results... etc, etc. Negativity.

I read somewhere that what is important is the serenity to accept what we cannot change, the courage to change what we can and the wisdom to tell the difference. So I'm saying we should just ravage what we can from this sickening luggage (even if its not much), throw the rest away and move onwards. No point lugging it about you wearing you out stopping you from reaching your goal.

But then sometimes its easier said than done. The occasions where I sometimes keep really quiet to myself is really an attempt to stop myself from ruining others' days because I know if I were to let it out I'd surely start yelling and throwing things around and assorted violent tendencies. I know its not good enough, but I'm working on it.

Good luck for the 'A's, everyone.
