what to do when your mum gets disappointed in you on mother's day?

Tough question to answer.

That's the situation i was faced with on Sunday. The catalyst, hopefully, to grow up.

Of course, the main reason is where my focus lies. Now, it's MEANT to be studies. But as my nick in msn often suggests, it's the activities that i drown myself in to avoid too much of facing the real world i guess.

Allow me to reiterate the string of events.

Jamming sessions, Wushu, Bible studies, Neil's dinner, OCF.

My mum lamented upon that and wondered why I don't write things like "work harder!" or "studying now"..

But if there's one thing I learnt from my secondary days, it's that people don't like to let others know that they are studying. I remember asking my friends before if they spent much time at home studying. They said no. Well, I happily agreed in my heart and went home gaming. The results show the victors in the 'game of life'.

Still, do I even study? That's a hard thing for me to comment on. Because I feel and probably know, that I don't do so very hard. Or when I do, I go to extremes such that it doesn't seem to hold still. I seriously have no idea how i go through these many years of school.

At the beginning of the year I had a friend stay at my place. She exclaimed that I was studying hard. But fact is, I probably study harder than I study smart. Which is bad. Because I find myself spending LESS time on it.

Trying to force myself to come to the library. It helps me to do aBIT more work only. But at least it's a start =)

Still, of course, prefer to focus on activities.

Last week, had wushu on tues, went to the sports day by A.S.S. meant to play badminton for $2 but ended up playing more volleyball taught by mary =p got slightly frightened when the opponents got stronger (new team came on)

Ate chicken ribs at YourThai for dinner last night after wushu with jac, her mum, mary and cs. Headed to the lib afterwards and revised the front of FM3 (due to the pressure that Chris my tutor gave of having to return his slides by next week! that's like 8 weeks worth of work crammed to this week!) yet i still had to do things like assignments, which thankfully my partner happily aced. Shall have to look through the working and make sense of it though. Have to learn to do them from scratch as well. Darn. I shall not be such a slacker. Haha.
