small is big

i actually stumbled upon the above statement after receiving back my physics paper2. i had one of the biggest shock/disbelief ever from any exam in my life. usually i'll pretty well know my performance during an exam and i could predict my expected score, very accurate especially for math, but what happened for physics taught me a big lesson.
it was just 1 mark to help me pull through with a pass.
now for gp, it's also another 1 mark that'll earn me my pass.
i feel jinxed, having failed at least 'something' every exam. sigh. this can't go on.

small is big

the smallest detail can bring about a big change to the overall outcome. just like a little too much salt/sugar will affect how the bread you bake will turn out to be, the smallest things in life is potentially able to do the same to you. it's like being a perfectionist, but i'm wary of the shortcomings perfectionism - must have balance.

time is so precious now that D-day for all jc2's draw near. the all-important prelims will start in about 5-6 weeks as of now and i'm still stuck with a mess of physics and econs concepts to master. *gasp* uni applications will commence pretty soon as well but i've yet to narrow-down further my choices. we had scholarship day yesterday in college and i'm beginning to toy around with the idea of pursuing architecture and the infocomm industry.

the past week hasnt' been all that pleasant, and my intuitions are telling me unpleasant things about someone i thought was close to me. i feel the pinch of politics again, and i am disappointed by the selfish acts of a person i trust. i promised myself not to bother with such matters anymore; just channel my energy to serving Him and working towards my personal goal. start anew in another environment. i simply hate the herd mentality, but what can i do most people subscribe to it and the opposition suffer in some way. i'm alright with it, my actions are judged by God and nobody else, but i hurt most when people who stood by the same principles as their allies suddenly break away and abandon the team.

i have the least respect for people who can't hold on to their own principles, and those who can't decide on their own for themselves. hypocrites are the bane of society.

true friends stand by your side when the going gets tough, not desert you.
