Marks are out.
Moment of truth… drumroll please…
I’m not on AP (academic probation) so far.
Not all the marks are out but there are likely enough to potentially give you a heart attack.
That is all.

You think that when one distraction has run dry you’ll go back to studying. It just keeps on coming. Internet, you’ll be the end of me.
Mind over matter… mind over matter…
Up till around 1 pm today I was actually one chapter in economics ahead of schedule.
Then I went to write the math final and somehow my Tuesday just fell away.
I don’t think I did very well on the final to be honest, but wilst writing it I came over an interesting sensation.
Have you heard of “flow”?
It’s like when you’re so in-the-zone of doing something that you are doing and the motions are moving but you’re not thinking about it. I think it’s also known as concentration. Just… on a very high level.
I was completly immersed in math. I screwed up some differentiating steps along the way but it didn’t get me down. Over the past few months I developed this bad habit of giving up and feeling helpless even during a test but this time I think I overcame it. Or rather, it didn’t come up?
Somewhere in the last hour I suddenly consciously realized I was in flow and then it broke. =( But it came back for a little bit at the end.
Anyway, back to studying.
Verdict of my first university final taking experience: Good experience but let’s never do that again. Too bad that’s not happening…
Good luck everyone =)
This is bad. I don’t know how to deal with this. The finals. They’re EVERYWHERE.
I’ve never needed to do this before… but I think I’m left with no choice. I have to make a studying schedule.

Why I never made schedules before: 1. didn’t really need it, 2. lazy, 3. it’s too overwhelming to look at.
I hope I will survive this.
[on a side note] Any K-pop fans here? I hear Minho of SHINee (along with other Korean celebs) has been around campus this weekend filming for a special on the Olympics. Fan cams are already on Youtube if you’re interested. I don’t know if they’re still going to be around though but I hear there are many screaming fans around.
A speaker was at my Organizational Behavior class. He shared an insight that I thought was very interesting.
He said…
You can play to win
or play not to lose.
I would assume he meant in life.
That’s all I wanted to share.
Do you play to win?
I know I want to, but I think unless I remember to remind myself I will play not to lose.
