"Optimism is the faith that lead to achievement.
Nothing can be done without hope and confidence."
On 18 February, I started my second semester of my degree. After such a long holiday, the first thing came into my mind was MONDAY BLUE. Honestly speaking, I was still in Chinese New Year mood. I was so delighted to see my batch mates again after one month break. The most frequent question asked on the first day was " You cut/dyed your hair ar? ". Basically, nothing much happened on the first day or I should say first week instead. After attending those overview lectures, the hectic life started again. There are some slight differences in this semester as I am going to have practical exam, academic writing, PBL (Problem-based Learning) as well as PSD (Pharmacy Skills Development). Well, I feel so stressful when I look at the notes I printed weekly. The lectures are pretty much to cover and revise. The mostly heard complaint is "I don't have enough time!". This is so true as we need to sleep, eat, pee, poo, gossip, listen to lectures, do revision, do reports and assignments, etc. How can we have enough time in doing that? Again, entertainment will be the one who needs to be sacrificed. However, it doesn't mean that we can sacrifice the time we have with our beloved family and friends. There will never be a waste of time if we spend our time with them! Totally worth it!
After a fortnight of the semester 2, what I can conclude is HECTIC. I cannot imagine the life of year 2, which means semester 3 and 4 as the seniors said these will be the worst! I am actually working as a part-time tutor again as I need some income to ease my parents' burden. I really hope I can cope with it and maintain my health physiologically and mentally. At this moment, I really feel like slacking and singing " today I don't feel like doing anything! I just wanna lay in my bed. " In addition, I need to prepare for my MUET. This actually reminds me of the old time when I was preparing for my IELTS. The same mood and situation but the person beside me is no longer here. Well, I got a quite interesting topic in my MUET speaking test. It is about the ways to speak well. My option was to observe and listen to good speakers. Thank God I had Intro to Pharmacy Practice last semester and it did help me in talking sth regarding to communication skills. Furthermore, I am exposed to some wonderful lecturers who are definitely a good speaker. I get the chance to see them talk everyday and my friend did show me a recording of a motivational talk from a preacher. So, it was quite okay. Now I am worrying about my reading, writing and listening tests. I hope my academic writing in this semester will help me in my writing part. Praying hard!
Not forget to mention that 2 days ago was my close friend's birthday who is far far away from everyone of us. Happy belated birthday to you and I do hope my surprise will work. Anyway, I don't wish to get any feedback from you as I know I will get nothing. You are just too shy to express your appreciation. Just want you to know that I really really put a lot of efforts in making all this. So, I wish you all the best and don't stress too much. You will find a way out afterwards. So many of us are supporting you from far and you must stay optimistic.
I will update soon if I have no mood to study. I will catch up with you peeps soon! By the way, nowadays people are getting busier and they don't even have time to update their blogs. Well, I understand that but it is kinda boring as I have nothing to read! Hehe.. See you!
