The whole freaking day has been pretty disappointing for me due to many reasons. I would like to use the word "unlucky" as an excuse but in the end, decided that the best way out was to be truthful to myself.Well, the main reason was down to the fact that i did not achieved the expected grades that i was hoping for. I got my results for the previous semester back today after waiting for so long. Haiz.. Actually, with the results i scored this time round, i should be very happy in fact as i had 2 higher distinctions and a distinction, something which i've never achieved before as far as i could ever recall. However, my initial target was to score 5 Ds, hence the disappointment. Furthermore, i really did put in a fair bit of effort into my studies, thus the sadness which i'm experiencing now. As the saying goes "希望越高，失望越多". Now i finally understood what's the meaning to this chinese phrase. Anyway, talked to someone earlier and she said something that hit me on the head with regards to this matter. She asked me what's the difference if i got all HDs and graduated with a degree and getting a few Ds here and there and still graduating with a degree. Does it all matter when i'm out working in the society in the future? After hanging up the phone, i kept thinking over whatever she said to me and somehow or rather what she said do makes sense too! I mean a degree is just another cert which would gurantee me a better job and a higher pay check but ultimately, i still have to depend on my own ability to carve out a niche for myself, in order to become a successful guy in future. Well, though i'm still disappointed with my grades, but i would use this disappointment to spur me on to achieve even better grades this semester. The other disappointment which i'm facing would not only apply to me but to all the Mancunians out there in the world for our beloved red devils lost to our stupid arch-rivals last nite. Really disappointing for we threw away the game which we so nearly won. To make matters worst, we lost in the very last minute of the game. Damn fucked up! Think this defeat would weigh heavily in my mind for a long time coming and i believed that many united fans would agree with me too! The only positive things to come out from this match would have to be Rooney scoring after so long without a goal to his name and Chelsea losing at the weekend to Liverpool, thus, we're still in the lead with 6 pts. Hope this game would just be a minor hiccup and served as a wake up call to all the superstar players from Man Utd. After all, the possibility of repeating the feat of 99 is still alive and going well. Go Devils!!!

Speaking of disappointment, i think i'm rather unlucky too as i suffered an injury to my right leg while playing soccer on sunday morning. Had a rather awkward fall which i wasn't able to walk thereafter. Was in bed for the whole day after the match. Fucking painful, as i'm still limping as i walk, especially when i have to climb up and down the stairs, now that's a real killer! Hoped i recover in time by feb, as all the important events would be around that period of time.
