Thursday, November 1, 2007: coping with disappointment
disappointment in itself can kill someone, or rather, disappointment is enough to get me discouraged and unmotivated.
i think its either i've been very unlucky in macro or i havent been putting in as much effort as i thought i did. i'd like to think its the former. maybe its because Paul Crompton doesnt like me, or maybe its because i'm too shy in class, or maybe its because i havent the capacity to understand this unit, all excuses that i like to form in my little brain.
i've been pretty disappointed with my grades recently. stat, ob, macro.. nothing much i can do about it now except to study even harder for exams and hope for a really nice grade that will pull up my term average. or maybe its just because i have very high expectations of myself. i want to get a HD for MA and stat, and hopefully a D for macro and ob, but it seems now that i've a lot of marks shy for a D in macro, and lets just not talk about ob, i havent started that yet. maybe and hopefully i will do well in MA and stat.
maybe i've been a little to disappointed to see how little i depend on God for wisdom. maybe i've been too tired of studying that i forget to rely on God for His strength.
remind me again of Your soveriegnty in all circumstances, remind me again of my priorities.
a shout of praise.
