Time to make a decision - to let go or to hang on? (in case you are wondering, I don't mean committing suicide)

Alright! Here's the current scenario - I am going to sit for four papers in a few days time. Ask me about progress? Here's my answer - I don't even know how to describe my progress right now, frankly.

So I am deciding to go on a risk based approach (and no, I don't mean risk based approach of audit). Well, anyway one of the papers that I am taking is business and corporate law. This morning whilst studying in college, I met a friend of mine in the full time class for the law paper, and apparently I have been studying it on the wrong basis. Although I cannot confirm it, but considering she has been attending classes and I have been attempting to self study it. Well, considering she's got the guidance of a lecturer, what she said could be true (i.e. it is mandatory to include which section in the law e.g. Sect. XX(X) when answering, while I was on the assumption it was not necessary).

So, I am thinking about making a stand right now. There is only a few days left before the exam paper. And I sure as hell don't have steroids to help boost my brain intake! So what are my chances of passing? 30%, 40%, 50% - once again, I don't know! I don't have a clue at all.

And thinking ----------- thinking ------------ thinking --------------- thinking ---------> My stand? If I am going to fail not trying, I might as well die trying, fail it and at least be happy saying I tried like a MAN!!!

I have to learn to adapt to stressful situations, and I qoute Bruce Lee, "be water, my friend".

hiatus!

After having been online on the ~Path of Time~ since 2006..... it is going to be hard, painful and sad. As of today, I will officially stop writing on the ~Path of Time~. For those who have continued to read my posts, I thank you very much for taking timeout to read my posts. I am not sure if all my writings were great but I'll be happy to know even if it was only one post that reached your heart. I may one day pick up from where I left off here but only time will tell. Who knows I might even start afresh? Until next time.......... time stops ticking for the ~Path of Time~

one foot in the past, another in the future........ what about the present?

All of us go through a cycle, what we commonly call - the past, present and the future. It can probably be summed up by this simple phrase: " we come from the past to be in the present and look forward to the future ". Now, what I want you to do is take a step back, or just give your mind a minute or two to digest the above mentioned phrase. Ask yourself if it applies to you. Really ask yourself; and I mean REALLY ask yourself in the most honest of manner, whether it really applies to you. You may find it difficult to arrive at a 'yes' and even if you do, you probably find yourself in a paralysis state of mind trying to justify the 'yes'. If you really ponder about it, you are likely to find that most of us would find this phrase more relevant instead: " we come from the past and look forward to the future " You will find many of us either hang on to the past or look far too forward into the future, or likely for some to even be dwelling too much in ...

my first tow truck ride

It was like every other Saturday morning for me yesterday. Woke up early to get breakfast, get ready for my weekly rock climbing sessions. I felt pretty good yesterday since I managed to sleep the night before so I was feeling very energized and upbeat about my climb session. I might have spoke too soon though because my car decided to pull a fast one on me. I found it surprising because I always went on preventive maintenance for my car so I really wasn't expecting any breakdowns especially I didn't hear any sound symptoms, neither did I saw any signs of an impending breakdown. After all, it is only logical that mechanical parts would give out some form of symptoms to let you know it's about to go. I was actually driving myself to rock climbing, feeling all geared up and gung-ho about it. As I approached an uphill climb and right bend, I realised I was losing compression and the car was starting not respond to my pedal work on the accelerator. To make matters worse because...
