19O6O8 - Shain's 16th Birthday.
Before I talk about the ulterior reason for this blog, I'd like to mention about a hilarious incident Katty and I had the other day at Cabramatta toilets. Both of us needed to go to the toilet urgently, so we went to Katty's mum's material shop to get a key to open the toilets near buy. However, when we got there, we were 'trying' to open the door and Katty thought she closed it. It took us about 10 - 15 minutes of trying before giving up and asking one of the ladies to help. She told us to 'turn and then turn again' (something along the lines) and we tried again. Katty's so talented! She can speak both Chinese and Vietnamese. I find anyone talented who can speak more than 2 languages moderately fluent xD. I just know two moderately fluent - English and Chinese. Anyways, after another couple of minutes I questioned out loud if the door was actually open and we're not just pulling hard enough. I pushed and pulled and finally, I slid the door. And guess what? IT ACTUALLY OPENED! After long minutes of attempting to open the door, not only was it already open but you're suppose to slide it ROFLMAOS! That seriously made my day xD!
Anyways, back to the main topic. Thomas, Mitchell, Peter, Kelly, Anthony and I moved to Mrs. Wardman's only 2 unit maths class. Our previous class has changed into a general maths class. I was anticipating, and fearing, about the moves all at the same time. I was scared that I'll be 'forced' to be in general maths. *sigh* so much is at stake. Some 3 unit students are going to drop down to the 2 unit class and then if you don't pass, you'll be pushed down to general. I quite miss the others. I do believe that some of them are actually capable of working 'continuously' hard enough. I highlight continuously because sometimes, people just get lazy and their best abilities won't shine through the obstacles. For example, Minh. He said that he once continuously did the same exercises over and over again and he received a 90%+ mark. That's why, I feel kind of bad that some people, who actually wants the 2 unit and is capable of it but don't try as hard as they can to get it. Yes, people may say that no pain no gain, if they don't try hard enough then tough luck. It's true, but sometimes it may be exceptional. Sometimes, their best isn't good enough. Passing isn't good enough. Now, you have to pass AND get good results. Be best of the best. I thought about going to general at one stage, I mean, Mrs. Diep was right when she said that we should worry about getting the marks for the UAI before worrying about the courses acquired to get into the course. But then I thought:
- I wanted to make my mum proud and reducing the chance of my relatives looking down upon us.
- I'd rather be studying harder now in a 2 unit course than going through a bridging course because I need the course. It just means I'll have to study even longer.
PSS. There's so many cheaters in this world that it's not funny. Is there no more justice in this world any more? Is 'good always prevail over evil' becoming too cliche that the world is gradually, psychologically, changing it so that evil will eventually prevail over good instead? Cheating is bad, being an open, shameless cheater is even worse.
