Me in History
I was browsing through friendster, and pay some visit to some old friends of mine, specifically those who pursued study overseas. Of course, it's too obvious that I am speaking of clan of scorers in my high school, KISAS. You see, I do not know where these people got their brains from. In high school they were so damn brilliant. And the general rule that resides in people's mind is - those who pursue study oversea are definitely smart people. Well, I don't deny that.
Flipping back the history of mine, in KISAS, I was indeed a lazy guy. I got the third last rank in class (Wow! That's a record!) And after class streaming, I was placed in 5 science 7, the last class for science stream student, meaning to say, the class which incorporate all the dumb students. Obviously I am one of them, obviously I am dumb, now you get my point, I guess. Realizing that we were among the stupids in KISAS, all of us (5 SC 7) woke up and struggled so hard to survive, and not to score because it was too late. Thanks to all the teachers who still have faith in us, even though it is can reasonably be inferred that we won't be bringing much pride as much as 5 Science 1 can bring. In the end, the highest SPM result in my class was Julie, with 10 A's and me myself got 7A's. Of course, 5 Science 1 students will score straight A's; it's the matter of A1 or A2 that differentiate. Then majority (or shall I say all?) went oversea all over the world.
Me? I am here, in UIA (International though!). Studying law (What a waste of chemical stuffs in lab while in high school!)
History did teach me a lesson, not to let my mom cry again. I promised myself that the history won't repeat itself once again. Until today, I am still holding strong to my promise. I regard myself as a successful student here, I am satisfied with my CGPA, I am satisfied with my academic achievements - debate, mooting, theatre... basically I am a different person from what I was in high school. Despite the fact that I am successful, to some oversea friends of mine, I am still an ex-5 sc 7.
My point here, ladies and gentlemen, I was once stupid dumb a**, but now I realized that I need to be someone of worth and I am ahead to it. I can't take any underestimation like I used to received in high school. For this is the new me. High School was a history, me in high school was a history.
