i've tried and tried, time and again.
its not my fault if i don't do well, i just "haven't tried enough"?!
define to me what you mean by enough. is there something you can use as a yardstick as to measure one's effort put in? i'm facing more than enough pressure when i'm in a class where people can get nearly full marks or even full marks just for one test. and whats worse is that my marks are considered to be mediocre, not matching up to the standard of '3e1'. to be honest, i would never admit that i'm truly born smart or anything. i've worked hard. i've worked hard to get into the class i'm in now and it wasn't easy. and thats probably why i hate people comparing me with maybe daniel, ruth or even joyce. (examples, examples). "why can't you work harder? why can't you be like daniel? why can't you be like ruth? why can't you be like joyce? why can't you be as smart as them" and when i tell them i've put in my utmost effort, what they say is "but maybe you havent tried ENOUGH" oh well ><
is this post considered EMO?
i didn't mean it to be. just venting my frustrations, i guess.
looking forward to rooftop 'gang' outing tomorrow :D
(and chemistry test -.-)
