At least i moved from 1 to 1.1, so i can proceed to lvl 2 soon!.
I did take time n effort out to learn how to connect sentences, any maybe new vocabulary.
It can be quite difficult at 1st, ppl may joke ur pronounciation, you may get stuck saying 1/2 way, people may look at you reading 'learning cantonese books' on busses or mrts, you may think you sound funny while saying it... alot alot of things that you are not used to.
However, Why I care so much abt ppl looking at me?. I learn for myself. Not For them?. Who cares abt the ppl on mrts looking at what im reading.LOL. I used to think alot of how people look at me when im doing things, but think again, what matters most is how u look at yourself.
If you think you are a failure, You confirm will be a failure.
No matter how others try to push you, motivate you, encourage you, YOu will still fail.
BEcos You think SO!.
Alot of people know this logic. However, you can see alot of people still doing it!.
e.g.
Looking back at sch days, how many ppl you noe, esp during O n A lvls, when they havent even tried to take the paper, they have given up hope on themselves, by SKIPPING the paper?
Its not that they cant do the paper, they choose not to do the paper. They give themselves way TOOO many excuses. i can quote some ''I dun wan to have a U grade on my cert, not nice'' ,
'' I want to concentrate on other subjects'' '' this subject not needed in my university admission''
'' I dunwan to waste time taking the paper''.. and alot more... you guys can see it urself.
They surrender before a war started..
If you can see, and u check with your friends.. How many of them can score alot more better in other subjects by dropping subjects? ohya, im not talking abt people who can afford to drop subjects. I m talking about those who cant drop subjects, but still chose to drop it. E.g. 3 A lvl subjects-> they just aim for 2 A lvl passes, so they drop one.
They are way concerned how other people look at them. They scared people may look at their 'U' grade, however, they they prefer a ' Ab' grade=> absent. tell me wat's the difference?
There's ALOT OF difference!.
A 'U' grade tells you how much you have learnt so far abt that topic, and how much you have not learnt. It shows you how unprepared you are, and how little prepared you are. It may show you your true weakness in certain topics which you have to work harder on, should you decide to re-take it again.
'Ab' grade?. shows that you are absent. It shows that you are afraid to take the test. It shows that your confidence level is low. It shows that you are unwilling to tackle difficulties ahead of you. It shows your true character : Give up easily.
So which one will you choose?
'U' tells u abt wat u really need to improve, and shld u choose to retake your subject, it will help you. Then you will concentrate more on subjects you are weak in, so you can work harder towards it, and certainly you will do better.
'Ab' tells you abt ur true character, your personality, more about yourself than your subjects.
Good!. not bad wat. you can see ur true self. BUT!. isit worth it?. You spend 1 whole year of study just to see ur personality? You pay examination fees of $100+ just to test yourself? Its not just $100 you are wasting. Its the TIME!. lets just calculate from the minimum..
Let's say you work in Macdonals!.
1 hr $4 ( i calculate the minimum)
1 day 10 hrs = 10 x $4 = $40
1 month= 28 days ( 3 days off) = 28 x $40= $1120
12 months= 12 x 1120 = $13440!!
And wait!.. You are working for just $4/hr.. and im sure you can get more than tat outside..
Other than this!. You are also wasting alot of other's people time!. and alot more. And, If you wan to really test your self, your character, u can go courses, go play games, or just go FACEBOOK!. alot of apps. for you to test.LOL
Hence, people out there, Before you give up on yourself, think of all these things 1st.
Seriously. 1 simple action of giving up is easy to do. Anyone can do. Just think of You are a failure, you will fail, and you will give up alr. Easy rite? this is power of ur subconscious mind:)
I ll end here 1st.
ORd-oh:D
