Exams over, Miracles needed
Friday, May. 09, 2003 - 5:04 a.m.
Dearie Diary,
I need miracles from God!~!~ I may sound desperate. But that is what I really feel from the bottom of my heart...
Before I continue with the reason for my "desperation", some background info: this semester, I got 6 modules. 2 of these modules are all graded by Assignments, Presentations, Projects, In-Course Assessments (ICA-they are small tests) etc. Thus these 2 modules do not have exams. As for the other 4 modules, I had to take exams on top of the tests and projects.
Before the exams, I aim to clear Marketing and Management with a B since that is my average grade for my projects and tests. But now I seriously think I cannot do that well for marketing. I doubt if I could even pass management...
Marketing paper (my 1st paper, 29 April) was actually an alright paper. But I realised many of my answers are quite messy up. Either I got confused with the points or I don’t know what examples to quote from the case study. I guess I did not prepare enough...
Management paper (my last paper, 8 May) has 2 unexpected questions. Expectancy Theory of Motivation (that wasn't even mention in tutorial questions and takes up about 2 pages of the entire stack of notes) was tested. The total weightage of the 2 questions is 14 marks! That was a lot...
Before the management paper, there was a 2 days break. Unfortunately I was sick on both days. Probably that is why more that half of the whole management seems so familiar but yet I cannot remember much answer. All I could do is to quote many examples for my answers. I know I might not get the marks with the examples as I did not have the main point that is needed. I almost (but didn't) teared after the management paper.
I thank God still for two things. (1)Exams over. (2) The encouraging SMS from my mentor. "Dun be disheartened! It must be a tough paper. Even when u r faithless, God is faithful! He has his plan and will make a way for you..."
With that SMS, I was reminded of God's faithfulness. Even if I were to fail any of my 6 modules, I know indeed God will make a way.
The miracles needed are wisdom to clear supplementary paper (it's something like a retest but there is no grade, just pass or fail), strength to pull through the sorrow if I need to repeat and trust in the Lord. To tell you the truth, initially the miracles I was thinking of are actually to get a good grade for marketing and to pass management. But I decide to change... I feel better now... :)
