Will Diligence Pay Off? Monday, July 24, 2006 10:58 PM

who would argue i can't be a leader?

maybe i hadn't led my team perfectly, but we've accomplished the entire project.

hurrah!

i heaved a sigh of relief after the module tutor let us off.

school doesn't seem so bad afterall

but that's when i've got the oomph for a particular module.

it's when the teachers don't piss me off,

i seem to say yes to tutorials.

still, teachers are still unreliable.

one week they like you because you scored 41 out of 50 for your paper,

the other week otherwise.

a perfect example would be:

on the first meeting of our new teacher, he favored this girl.

(because she's showing quite abit of her assets, you see)

the following week, she was rather cast aside as

she wasn't quite liked in class and the teacher started putting a barrier between himself and her.

this is what i call unreliable men.

oh well,

i bet if my boyfriend reads this,

he's sure to question me about that girl. (assets - ahem*)

anyway, i'm serious about wondering what's gotten into me.

i've never quite felt diligence in me since

the PSLE (i worked freaking hard with all that parental stress)

if i had the same bunch of classmates last year,

i'm pretty sure i'll still be unmotivated

as i had this lovely girlfriend who

would constantly call me up to remind me on what assignments to do.

admitting i was rather dependent on her,

i knew i was on my own starting this year.

still, this classmate of mine had the cheek to write me a frienster testimonial

which states that i slack.

HAHA.

thanks man.

if only you were in my class last year,

you would be asking if i were really Janel.

i was thinking if it was retribution or bad luck.

i went to school every day of last week.

inclusive of sat and sun.

the previous week i skipped quite a num. of days.

xiaoqi and i had a reason to go back - duh.

to complete our e-commerce website.

saturday night, zach came over to

fetch me - i hate to walk the dark pathway alone (bishan park)

and

after sunday's 'almost completion of website',

i went to find zach in the evening.

kana more mosquito bites at the HDB blocks.

SHOO MAN!!!

then we went to bishan.

we had this weird soya ice cream that really tasted like soya bean.

how fascinating.

i resisted temptation for another clothing,

even though it was the last day of the GSS.

thursday is arriving.

dang. i really pray the teacher doesn't give me trouble.

(it's not like i, the student gives her, the teacher trouble; more like the other way)

what a drag.

after two more thursdays,

i should be temporary free from the merciless tutor.

goodbye.
