Do marks matter?
Last Sunday I took Japanese Language Proficiency Test (Level 2) in UPM. It was alright I suppose, depends on whether your goal is to pass, or get higher marks. Anyway once you take level one all these marks don’t matter anymore.
So people have been asking me how I did in the test. Frankly, I cannot tell. My aim is just to pass but secretly I was hoping to get higher marks (so that I can brag about it lol). We shall let the marks do the talking, which will be in next year’s March. I kinda screwed up in listening and grammar section, that’s for sure.
Speaking of exams, today I went to check my results at faculty. As expected, no more Dean’s list this time. Was kinda sad at first, but come to think of it, I didn’t spend much time study till late night, I slept on time, blog, watch shows during exam period, enjoyed the hell of it, yet my exam results didn’t turn out so bad. Sometimes I rather make use of those extra time playing my guitar, reading, rather than forcing myself to memorise things I don’t even have a clue to begin with. And then completely forget about it right after exam.
Of course I’ll make sure I get A in Japanese, but not Japanese phonetics and phonology please T.T
And reading this post made all the difference. I’m now a happy girl. Luckily this exam result does not jeopardies my ’secret’ plan I have been carrying on these few weeks.
We cannot change the outcome, hence I just have to plan carefully for upcoming semesters, paying more attention in classes, be more productive, and look forward.
As I were wandering around Mid Valley, I realised that my desire towards buying things is diminishing. I only spent RM 0.42 (mineral water) and RM 5.60 (transport). Ate home made sandwiches for lunch, wanted to have a cuppa while reading Haruki Murakami’s Kafka on the shore but Starbucks was crowded, wanted to have sushi but Jusco is not selling the ones I like, wanted to buy guitar picks but Yamaha doesn’t have the ones I always use……hmm…
Maybe my expenditure on this month will look nice =D
What a self-centered post.
