Today, our OG had another outing and I guess I really enjoyed the company with this group of ten in the OG. I can't say I really like all of them (maybe just two) in this OG, but I genuinely thank God for putting some of these people in my life thanks to the orientation camp back in July. Some of them became my good project mates while some are just nice/genuine/sincere to hangout with. I really can't ask for a better group of friends whom I barely knew for four months long.
So while at Wild Honey (I have to say the American all-day breakfast was freaking huge and I could barely finish 60% of it, ME=WEAK, I say)... the topic of results came up again, considering that we all received our results just a few days ago. Well, I assume that I was certainly dismayed with the C+ (as mentioned in the previous post) I got.. I was certainly thankful of it. Which reminds me now to bring this up now... I told yanyan my results when I received it and after knowing my results, he said "good what". But when he received his own which was around the same, he said "i expected higher". So does it mean that the results he received is what he expected for me to receive but not for him or does it mean that the results I received is good for me but not good enough for him? Just some food for thought... for fun, JUST TRYING TO BE A SI GINNA AND READ TOO MUCH INTO THINGS. I know all you meant is you thought I did a great job and you thought that you could have done even better than the results you received. :) HEHEHEHE.
Anyway, back to the topic. Of course with GPA of >4, I certainly wasn't the worst in the group. But I hate the topic of results being mentioned each time. Partly because I feel bad for my friends whom I really like who didn't do as well and also feel enraged by friends whom I DON'T really like who scored really well. And I don't like it when people assume me to be this smart fellow when I'm not. I simply just work really hard because I'm insecure about myself and am afraid of failure. That's all.
But reflecting upon this, I just really have to say that results itself doesn't mean a single thing. I may not have a 4.7+ GPA like this certain someone who have on more than one occasion told me that he doesn't need to study to get his As. For the record, I feel like telling him if he was that smart, he wouldn't #1 retain, #2 scored 5.0, #3 be in our school. (Sorry, just had to bitch) But seriously, that guy was such a snob that I know of at least a dozen others who wish against him to do well. (Sorry, had to bitch again and I know karma bites) If you would let me choose, I rather be an average joe, with average results, with many average friends and live an average awesome life. Rather than a loner life with no one to share your 4.7+ GPA with. And he dared to say something like 4.7+ is giving him the blues in life. Like, because it's not 5.0? Or because you simply suck? Just had to rant man, this guy is seriously last warning. ZZZ. What a weird guy. To all my readers, if you're getting a >4.5 in future, please be thankful. Because quoting the NUS guy, you have loads of people who're "dian di-ing" for you. :)
With that said, this will be my last post about results. Until next sem. -.- Hope I don't have to bitch about that guy again.
But I've a feeling I will.
Aw shucks.
