Geography

alright alright, i am starting to remember that i really had resented Geography back in sec school days. That is what happens when you get complacent after getting A2 for your ELECTIVE (only) geography for prelims and O's. You start forgetting about the reality.

Back then, History class was too full so they had to plop some students whom didn't flunk Geography in Sec 1&2 in the Geography class. so despite the fact that i did much better in history and appealed, i still ended up in that silly Geography class and that is when due to lack of interest, i flunked throughout until prelims & O's when something just happened. Apparently, i honestly believe that it's really luck because i don't recall putting in extra effort for that particular subject. It's like how you got an A for finance but you don't really know how you did it because you were either skipping lectures or blanking out during lectures as you have complete lack of interest for that subject.

Now, this teaches a mere homo sapien a very important lesson: that false confidence is really bad for health.

especially when you have to start learning in-depth on Coriolis force, Hadley Cell circulation, El Nino, La Nina effect, plate tectonics and so on.... and learn to explain WHY and HOW the continents, ocean, wind, temperature, landform, landscape, etc work .... it's time to cringe

on the bright side, at least now i know why the sky is blue(a question posed by SMU accountancy teachers for interview into SMU). wow. haha. =,=


now, what i gotta do is just to psycho myself that i love geography.... sigh, really hard to psycho yourself and yes, Bren, i decided that there's no point keeping my 3 S/U options and i'll use it for this module >.<>
