Results were out last friday...but obviously they have not been well...
I have been telling myself to put things into perspective...but instead got a heavy berating from my mum instead. Some may call me mamma's boy, but believe me, it's never nice when u get a heavy berating from my mum, even though I personally felt that I did all I could with my current results in this situation.
Still, this pressure exerted on me by my parents, relatives, whom some of my relatives only know how to play hypocrite because they look down on me just gets to me. The consolation from this is that I have managed it well so far, but I can tell you that I will be over the boiling point soon.
I have my work cut out for myself next semester. That's all I know right now.
Another thing that has been troubling me these few days is society work. I talked to some of my working mates in the upcoming Singapore Model United Nations Conference and they have told me about their displeasures with the boss. One has even gone to the extent of washing his hands off the matter. It took a lot of persuasion to tell him to help do this last favour that I saw it important, and then let him rest his mind and enjoy his reservist and the rest of his days with his girlfriend.
The next paragraph is for the person in question, and you do not need to read of course.
Theresa, if you are looking at this right now, (if you stumble upon it), the person I am talking about is you. The cardinal sin you have committed is that you have overridden a lot of people without even telling them what you are planning to do in the first place. I do not want to tell this to you in person because I do not want to spoil the dynamics of SMUN. But in any case, if you are not aware, you have pissed off key members of the administration team with the way things you have done. That also includes me, although I can understand some of your frustrations. Still, you cannot allow yourself to be overridden by someone, knock down another person in a msn chat and then do what you want without even telling us. It will put us in a very tight spot.
In case I forget, rag has been going good...
Had a good dinner with the raggers, including a surprise visit by Fiona (not for me since she told me that she's already coming last week). Fiona...thanks for your presence...you rock!
The following is for Lionel: Lionel, if you read this, I just want to tell you this:
Your confidence in us was not unfounded...we managed to get the float down to where you wanted, but in the process, you have to buy a lot of us makan soonz! :P (16 of us in fact)
Be raggerfied...and long live SMUN for next week!
