To think I even have the thought of writing down “genomic techniques” into my résumé. With a ‘D’, I think I better keep quiet and pray hard that my interviewer isn’t as observant to realize the poor grades. [Read about my results.]
Next time when I go job-hunting, I probably have to stick with computer-related occupations. I fare better in them. All those modules which I scored a distinction are computer-related. I seem to do better in web publishing, visual basic and web applications.
I imagine myself creating web applications in future now. I can’t imagine myself with test tubes and stuff. Getting a distinction for web application is really a surprise to me. I did not complete the project, it’s 75% completed only.
But 2 ‘D’s are enough to overwrite my joy over a distinction. I try not to think about it now. Thinking about it made me feel confused. Why confused? I don’t know what’s wrong. I never thought a ‘D’ would be returned.
I just wonder how my other friends fare. Mind copying and pasting your results here and post it as a comment here? Guan Jie and Jinyao, I’m interested in your results too, lol
I daren’t ask my other classmates. I heard they aren’t doing very well. I am not interested to ask them for their results too. I can’t tell why. I am also afraid of asking people for their results just in case the results brings back bad memories of theirs that they tried hard to forget.
As for me, let time do what it does best – and that would be – to waste itself through the entire week. I’ll forget about this, I don’t think much of it too already. I’ll just have a nice sleep. Think of tomorrow!
[Oh yeah, tomorrow I'm going to the medical checkup for National Service enlistments to check my eye. Damn, I'll think about the day after tomorrow. Cheers to all who return with satisfactory results.]

ouch…D’s are bad.My parents go ballistic if I come home with C’s.But,it is only your second year,right? You’re still trying to get used to everything.Is it too late for extra-credit? Always take advantage of extra-credit,no matter how painful it is(boy,do I know? lol).
by aurora_starfire (Nov 25, 2004 at 1 AM)aurora_starfire: Yup, they’re bad. I haven’t tell my parents. I’ll tell them when they’re in good mood. I won’t get spanking of course, but possibly a really bad scolding.
I’m in my third year now, no extra credits to gain, at least that’s what I think.
by Mr. Dew (Nov 25, 2004 at 12 PM)my mom would be like,”I wasted all this money on you and you come home with C’s?!”
If you’ve ever watched the Charlie Brown cartoons,they have the adults sound like a trumpet,that “wa-wa-wa-wa” sound.That’s what I hear when I get yelled at for stuff,lol.I try to get A’s,but it’s just difficult!
Things are way different from back in the 70s,when my folks were in college.
Then I’d get another lecture from my brother,who talks your head off for hours.
Then I go to my room feeling guilty,as always.
I hate it when they do that.But sometimes that just makes me want to do better next time,just to prove everyone wrong,lol
Finals are in two weeks.I better start studying now!
by aurora_starfire (Dec 2, 2004 at 11 PM)Good luck for your finals. I got to admit this – everytime I didn’t score good results, I will tell myself to work harder and stuff. But in the end, well.. you know what happen roughly, hahaa
