take it from the expert...


"it is when you fall that you start to climb back..." of course, how can anyone climb back if he has not fallen yet? but anyway, i realized alot these past few days... maybe i really have been lax in my studies and as consequence... here i am... at the pit, let me correct that... "bottomest" pit of my academic career. they say that i should not be super-duper grade conscious, but my conscience knew better. looking back, i realized i have been a product of studies rather than the person who produces studies... know what i mean? it means that eversince i was young, i was always confined in my studies, in pursuing for academic excellence... but where exactly would my quest end up to? i have been controlled by my studies specifically my desire to reach the top... (bop to the top!) and never did i experience the other half lives--the lives of fun,fUn,FUN youth. and in my “totally” teenage year, today, i feel like i have been missing a lot... things which were done by my fellow teens... simply, having fun...

but nevertheless, let’s go back to the quote at the top... this is my world; this is the type of world i chose to live in... and the least i could do is to preserve it. part of the "climbing back" perhaps, meant that i should work hard to strive for what i wanted but still introduce myself to the real life... a life where failure is an inevitable... a life where success is not really the highest peak... so what the heck?! If failure is the illness, best way to treat it is definitely laughter.

i know i can make it! all i need is to work hard and most of all to have fun!
aja!
