Examination and it's results
Exams are one of the things you'll find it common basically in your school days. They are said to be there so as to test our level of understanding of what you've learned. But hey, to think of it in another manner how often do we actually apply the context that we had learned previously into our lives and especially, in our work? I somehow think that some of the modules taught weren't exactly relevant and might even be considered redundant when it's something that won’t benefit us in any way. The one thing that makes people study so hard is that upon success it gives them the satisfactory of doing well and making them feel that they’d an edge over others in terms of enriched with extra knowledge.
For me, studying is fun. The process of learning, the way it's presented, and in knowing the wonders it could bring would certainly lifting you up, to have the eagerness to find out more, thus it will never be bored or whatsoever.
Ohwell, it doesn't mean having to love studying means you'll do well in exams, and the sad truth is I fall under that category. In my opinion and based on my research, I realized people that does well aren't very well off and sometimes family members might even have difficulties supporting them financially. What I felt was that, they worked very hard for everything, seizing each and every opportunities they can get, hoping that one day they'll have a better living, thus breaking out of that cycle. People with a success story to tell usually have a beginning like that. But they persevered against all odds to get to where they are. I really do admire them.
Got back my results the other day and though it wasn't very fantastic as what I've expected it to be having worked so hard, I thank God for it. After all, it was an average mark that I would gladly accept. So get on with life, and work harder in the upcoming semester with my final year project, hopefully it will be better the next time round.
