and the bloodshed begins

its funny that even when you're expecting the worse scenario happening, you find out there's something to top that. i already expected questions about the ideas we threw in for our first strama case but as soon as easy started questioning the first group, i knew we, and everyone else, were screwed. everybody were grilled with the fundamental question "what's your basis?" i guess there's a lesson prof easy wanted to impart on everyone that night and despite looking foolishly dumb in front of the class, it made me realize the importance of understanding what you are reading. admittedly, i take most of what the textbook says for granted. it falls right smack on my short term memory that sometimes you try to memorize it just to be able to parrot it during recitation or exams. i reluctantly admitted by saying "i don't know" and "i don't recall." when he asked me questions i honestly couldn't remember any answer to. they weren't really hard, but the answers weren't at the top of my head. its becoming clear that there's really a lot of work required under easy so i'm really trying to figure out how to survive. i did ask about the big blue and he suggested i try to work on another company because a lot of people used it already. its a big problem - not having a company to start working on.

and yeah, maybe i asked for it but i was elected class president. everybody told me its a tough job but i guess there's no turning back now. and the bloodshed begins!

ps : i really really need to catch up on sleep. i've been sleep-deprived for the past 4 days my eyebags feels like they're over the weight limit. hahaha
