De-struct

I dont like structures. Especially ones which come together with typedef. Today (or rather yesterday, since it past 12pm already) paper was pretty tough. Honestly, who in their right mind would expect half of the paper (or more) consists of structures. Hell! Structures are only discussed in the last 1 hr of lecture... But still gotta thank God, coz Yong and Sec was talking about structures right in front of me before the exam about the structures so yeah, learnt a lot from it. Besides, pretty much lucky coz I remember that there is a 'selection sort' thingy (okay Sec, laugh at me la...) in the textbook and hence I copied from it, hopefully got 5 marks or something. Talking about the textbook, some crazy fella (Jahat, not the Nico, the Erwin) bought $51.50 C for Dummies in order to assist his study. No wonder he improved much from mid term to PE. Cool xia! Money can really buy stuff, hahaha....

A good thing happened today! Andrew Ng, the TR2201 lectures told me that my group has made a lot of improvement in the project and hence rewarding us with extra marks... Good good.... Meaning Nonk's and mine own sacrifice countless nights before are not really going to the drain. Here's the link to the website. Hahahaha.... Nonk the pro designer... Whee.... Lucky got him in the group. Oh, must credit Yong as well coz he lend us his printer to print 44 pages of the marketing report. Wew... That's like 60% of the final grade. Now only left with the 40% of the written exam tomorrow. Gotta sleep soon so that can study today noon...

A not-so-good thing happened as well... Adit was down today coz of CS1101C... He said he screwed up. Oh well, everyone screwed up wad? Even Armeen (dunno how to spell his name haha) said he is going to be very very grateful if he got a D. Colin said that he was going to bid for CS1101C and EG1108 coz he is sure he will fail hahahha. But then again...Adit has recovered. Wheee goood. Met him just now and he looked way much better than how he looked like after the exam yesterday. I'm still waiting for another soul to give me her update though... Her blog shows that she was down as well, regretting that she was not really doing her best. Here's an extract of her blog:

    "did i try my best? wat caused all these to happen? my overconfidence regarding my mid term test results? my poor time management? exam panic? was it my fault? i dono...i have no idea...but i know if i were given 2 more hours time for revision just now, i would be able to score well this time...sigh...i'm not sad...just a bit..blur...cuz i want the answer......"
Oh well.... Everything happens for a reason. Like in the Bible, the reason why a blind man is blind is so that God's glory can be manifested in his life. But one thing that I'm sure of. Like ACS motto The Best Is Yet To Be. No matter how well or how badly something is done, it can always be improved. It is up to us to strive to be the best. Even when we are there, there is always something else to be beaten. Life is a constant struggle. Only in God we can get all the answers. Maybe not now though...
