They say that failing a subject in college is inevitable. It is a common thing in college but I never knew that it would really hurt this much. Last Friday I went to the Physical Sciences Building to look at my grade in organic chemistry. This subject was the most challenging subject that I had this semester. I looked for my student number and to my dismay I had failed the subject. When I saw my grade I could not react at first and I cannot comprehend what is happening around me. I was surprised because I know that I had studied really hard and tried to put all my efforts in every exam that I took in this course, but it ended in a very sad note. It was painful. Really painful. I told my friends about my situation and they told me that it is just fine that I should do better next time, but I for me it is not OK. I was mortified and I was depressed that I almost ended up drinking all afternoon. It was my first "singko" in my college life and it hurts really bad. It pains me knowing that my other batchmates are going to take biochemistry next semester and I am stuck with organic chemistry again.
When I started out in college I told myself that I would graduate on time, but it seems that my dream of finishing my studies on time is somehow fading. I failed the subject and there is a possibility that this subject may not be given to me next semester and it would delay me. If that unfortunate event happens I will be delayed by 1 semester and I don't want to prolong my study. I just want to graduate on time with our without honors, but I prefer to graduate with honors.
Though my situation is depressing, I must still pursue on with my life and try to find a way to fulfill my dream. I must keep moving on and continue with my life. There is no use in sulking because it will not do me any good. I will see this failure as an opportunity for me to begin again more intelligently :)
LET'S GO!
