Humans are social creatures, so we like to seek acceptance from the people around us. Now to some, that may not happen as often as we like. However, the crucial thing is to not let it affect you permanently.
SHAKE IT OFF!
You define what you are and it is not what people say about you or which class you go to that determines your worth. One of the most common exampes cited is Microsoft founder Bill Gates who did not complete college. If he had let the people around him define his limits, I seriously doubt he would be the billionaire that he is.
That is why I am disturbed by people who are so concerned about the classes that their children get into at the end of each academic year. Is it any wonder that our kids become so caught up in the race for the 'best' class? When will they realise that everyone has a fair chance to do well in any class?
Until they wake up, the nightmare continues for the rest of us.

Yesterday night was pretty bad, had an argument with DW and went to sleep at 2am feeling really stressed. As expected, I ended up having 2 nightmares in a row involving some serious stuff where I was being questioned for embezzlement and murder... =0
As a result, I woke up at 5.45am covered in perspiration, it was really hot last night!
School was pretty normal except that I found out that one of my group members had decided to resign from being a teacher and the course. It was pretty sudden and we only found out during the group meeting and no one hadd heard about it except for Joyce who was pretty close to her.
So we have lost a potentially good teacher, I understand it was due to her family commitments. T_T
The gd news is DW is not mad with me anymore... whew!
Oh well, need to push on...lots of assignments due!
