Recently, one of my friend's friend died. Even though I may not know him, but still... #RIPissac
Life's really vulnerable. You won't know if you'll still be alive the next second, the next minute. You won't know if you'll still be able to see your friends, family and loved ones tomorrow. You won't know. Cherish your loved ones and don't live with any regrets. It's hard to .. you know, " live without regrets ". FOR SURE. Because apparently, I think I can write one whole book of things that I regretted. Just as the quote from Mark Twain which says " Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. "
Everything I do or see now, will link to my studies. So yeap, after reading that quote, I started to think. Twenty years down the road, what will I become? Where am I going to be? What will I do? With this academic results, I won't be able to go far. That isn't what I want. Next year, I want to see myself studying in a polytechnic instead of the same old secondary school I've been attending every single day for four years. I'm only 4 points away to the Three Years Polytechnic Foundation Programme. But who knows that I'll do badly for my 'N' levels because the person who has always been motivating me is gone now? Who knows that I'll get results worse than my Prelims? At this point of time, I know exactly what I want. I want to get 10 points and leave this secondary school. I want to get 10 points and pursue for a course that I've always dreamed for. I want to do well in my studies. This is what I want. But, just saying won't do anything. I need to work really really hard for this national exam. I don't want to regret not studying hard enough after I receive back my results.
This is the time for us to give a final push, do our best and shine. It's not going to be easy. Nothing's ever easy. As long as I know what I want and I fight for it, my hardwork won't go to waste. This isn't the time for me to brood over my emotions or worrying over " How? What if I fail? ". Just like what my parents said, " Just do your best. Don't think about anything. Just study, put in your best efforts. After that, then you think about it. "
Tomorrow is my 'O' Maths Prelims. Kind of afraid and scared. But still. Need to work harddddddd.

With this, I'll end today's post. All the best to all who are taking their Prelims or any exams!
