U knw wad to do, why the hell arent u doing it?
Wad yr are u in now?
If u dont pull ur socks up, then yea, u wasted ur yrs.
If u start now, RIGHT now, there is still time for salvation.
Its the paths u take to success, not the duration.
All roads lead to rome. U will get there later, but eventually u will get there.
Its hard to understand tht pt, took me quite a while to grasp it.

Theres a lot of time to think in NS. ![]()
My friends have always said: Change your mindset, change your attitude to life and not procastinate is the first step to changing your life.
adam khoo would love you...he claims to be able to rah rah you until you get high from motivation.....lol...
or you can snap out of your daze yourself and sign up for external courses yourself, there's plenty out there...you can save money by going to the community centres for computer application classes including adobe and other software design stuff...and pick up some foreign languages, especailly jap and / or french to bolster your resume....and dump your slacker friends....
Thanks for all your kind reply .

She used to be a ta jie ta in my school , always smoking in the toilet and bossing people around . At that time she seemed like the typical ah lian whose life will go no where but down hill. But a few days back when i saw her she was so mature and kind of gave a lecture in life .
She told me she went to poly cause she retook her o lvls. And i told her that i was still in poly and slacking as usual . Then she asked me if i was still hanging out with this group of slackers which i call friends. Then of course i said no as not to lose face. But then in actual fact i`m still hanging around with my so called friends. Then she said all this stuff about how great her life is now with a part-time job at this big company which she worked for in attachment ( she also got AD for attachment ). And she also told me she did some self studying in her free time . Like studying how to use ADOBI and such computer stuff. I have never in my life study something which will not be tested in my exam . SAD.
Guess how much was her freaking gpa 3.9. WTF 3.9 is confrim impossible for me to reach . my GPA is only like 1.5 . SAD i know . All i get for my exams are just pass and i have to retake half a year in poly.
So it suddenly came to me that i should change my life and stop slacking partyin going out when i`m bored . I should really sit down and study . And should be like her who was a past ah lian ( now a super mature and smart girl ) .
But the truth is . It`s harder said then done . I`ve though of it . If i were to be like her and study study . My grades would be better i think . And then maybe i could get into a uni. But if i did that wont i become a geek ? And everytime i think of sitting down and studying , i would end up playing . Even playing with anything thats on my table .
And i just realise i dont even know wat i would want to work as in a few years time . I dont think a diploma can bring u very far in this day and age . I totally have no plan for my future. I decided to post here and get help from you guys because i`ve tried talking to my slacking friends and i always get the same reply. AYA DONT THINK SO MUCH.
But i think it`s time i think . If i dont think now when am i going to start. And if u guys could tell me if i could get into any uni if let`s say my GPA is like 2.5. Cause my gpa sucks now even if i worked hard and get good grades i think it can only bring it up to 2.5. I dont wanna retake my poly . It`s wasting 3 years of my life . And about SAT`s exam is it like anyone could take it ? Or do u have to have a good gpa to take the SAT exams. I really wanna make a U turn in my life .
Pls help me Thanks.

may god bless me, not u LOL! XD
ask spotted.
Find out what is the more important things in your life now and work towards it.
to the ts, here's my own story..
i was from maris stella high and was expelled due to fights and then got accepted into zhonghua sec express. i was a very playful teen during the younger days and didn't make it thru to sec 4 and repeated my sec 3.
i scored pretty well for my o lvls and went on to poly. decided that it would be the turning point in life for me to excel. i was doing pretty well during my 1st semester and got really satisfied with my grades, however, i lost my father to cancer back then and had my semesters all jumbled up, also without the motivation to study without my usual friends i had during orientation.
every modules that i took, people didnt really care much nor did they include me in project discussions. scoring good grades was difficult and finally, i dropped out from poly during my year 3.
now, i am still serving NS and have grown mature a little and decided to take on my studies again at SIM, taking my bachelors now in computer science. so far, scoring an average B for my subjects.
just wanna say, u can do it, its just ur mindset and don be afraid that people look at u as a geek. the one who laughs last, laugh the most ![]()

if you really desire to change, you can and will.
change takes determination and discipline. nothing is impossible in this world, save by your own willpower.
just ask yourself, how many more 20 years you can waste away.
in another 20 years, you will be 40! and the next, will be 60! every year passed, is one step closer to the coffin.
what kinds of memories do you desire to bring with you at your deathbed, or share with your next generation?
these are all important questions which you alone must ponder deeply.
cheers! :D
