Go-bust

Success is handling failure after failure without losing the ethusium. I have no idea who wrote that but it seems to be some inspirational pharse pinned up on some wall in the school. After what happen to my glo-bus (I prefer to call it go-bust), that phrase inflicts more salt to wound rather than brighten me up. Anyway glo-bus is some game thingy that the school requires us to do as part of our assessment. 12 teams in each industry pits against each other with strategy of their own and awaits good news every week after Sunday 10pm. Obviously, my team did not do well and I’m still pretty sore over it. I will get over it sooner or later. Bah.

In the midst of warming up for the semester, I did fill in one or two activity to so call give myself a life. Basically, I went for a KTV session with JJ, Mong, Stan and this guy call Weiliang. I think I should have known him during a drinking session but simply cannot recall who he is. Anyway, it doesn’t really matter since eventually I will know him more if I see him more often.

I think I managed to slot in a crab eating session after one of my gym session. Why eat when I am having a diet? I shall answer back with Why not if I get heavier after more practice? I am not about to give up on the idea of shedding some pounds but am not really all that committed now to do it.

Frankly speaking, I have been gaming a bit more often then usual. I think I should stop a bit before I become another addict like someone. The person knows very well who I am referring to.

Backtracking to school slightly, I’m happy and not with it. Why did I say so? Let me see...

Lecturer seems more capable then usual. Geoffrey is as entertaining as usual and his insight is as impressive and awesome. He never fails to set my mind into thinking mood every time he lectures. I must respect him from deep down (thump my chest damn hard) there. Sherman is a nagger but I must admit he is knowledgeable and cares for his student. Sarcasms seems to be in his blood I think and he really needs to learn how to handle Singaporean in term of his communication style but then again it really didn’t bother me. So he can do what he wants because I’m pretty much immune to it. The other Ah nei, Don, articulates damn well I must say. At least I pay attention to his lessons and the way he drives his point are pretty straightforward, clear and with respect. Good too. I basically give 4.5,4 and 4 to all of them. Jonas on the other hand... Go one corner and drink your Guinness. I swear it’s a -10/10 if I can give it to you so better don’t get me started.

十支手指有长短。And that is why; I need to communicate with people from their point of view, in their shoes and from their perspective. So whoever teaches, I will need to learn from them and achieve the greatest out of things. If no one understands what those Chinese wordings meant. It actually means that every finger have its own length and that goes the same for human. Everyone looks, reacts, handle stuff differently and the only way to connect with everyone is try to scoop to their level before any form of communication is built.

So ya besides having good lectures to attend, there are assignments to be bore down with. That is really the not so fun part. Assignments seem to be pretty hard to handle this semester and it seems harder when there are not many clear directions to follow. Go-bust is a headache, a sore. On the brighter side, harder assignment means a great chance to learn. I’m being positive but I hope it’s true.

I shall end now because I’m going for a jog in prep for my training. Am lacking plenty of practice so ya. I now weight 71.8kg from last measurement.
