Its been exactly thirty (30) days since I last published on my blog. The last thing I remembered sharing here was my preparation towards my first official Association meeting, followed by my 16th Black&White Smartphone Photography Showcase, and afterwards I vanished. My plan was to share a blog the following week's Monday discussing about how the meeting went because I traveled home that same day after the meeting and while I was at home, I was literally left with no chance to blog. But little did I know that universe had a different plan for me.

The new week arrived and lectures became a little more intense. The courses I offer began to look broad and difficult to easily understand. Well, it was expected because it's the final level (year) and the complex part of the course was finally being revealed and taught. The first day of that week was completely exhausting, and just after I thought I had gone through enough stress for the day, I discovered that our previous semester Examination result has been posted on the notice board while we were still In receiving lecture in class.

I confidently approached the notice board and hastily glanced through the list in search of my matriculation number to see what grades I've got in my exams. I was feeling a little bit tensed but I was handling it very well that it would be hard for someone to notice that I was. I saw my CGPA (3.12 out of 4.00) and I felt sad immediately. I was expecting to have an increment of at least 0.1 from my previous GPA (3.24) but instead I dropped. I know some might be wondering why I felt sad for such a result which is still very much good although it's not the best. Well, I felt sad because of the sacrifices I had made during the course of the exam. Only I knew what it cost me to prepare for the exams so that why I felt sad for not reaching my target/expectations.
