Impetus to start engine?

I've been slacking in my school work since school reopened. *Counts with my calendar* That's 24 days already, and I still have not kicked into gear to start burning those lecture notes into my RAM & ROM (aka brain).

Had lunch with my fren from the same EID group, Bao Long. He told me that he has started his own business and trying hard to juggle schoolwork, business and ECA. In our těte a těte, he said something that made me reflect on myself.
I've learnt to maximise the use of my time, even if its one minute of free time, I'll be chowing down my notes.

Now I ask myself: What have I been doing for the past 4 weeks?
I cannot find a good answer....

Bao Long has got a clear goal and knows what he wants. He is working in that direction now.
As for me, I think I'm still a lost sheep out there waiting for a shepherd to give direct me.

I took a bit of time off to think for myself. And as usual, my short term goal would be:

Get 5 As for this semester.
So far I have identified 3 modules that I've got a higher possibility of scoring: 311, 314, 317. Will update with more in time once I catch up with the other modules.

What I have to do now:
- spend >4 hours studying everyday (till I catch up and overtake the tutorials)
- spend 2 hours per day on tutorials
- cut out all computer games
- cut off the late sleeping times
- work out daily schedules on what to do on the following day
- cut down on supper (I know this is not directly related to scoring As)

Had a talk with Ivy during our tutorial class today. She had broke off with Adrian. Although I have heard it from Bao cun some time back, but I din want to probe more on it (not my style to ask unless the person tell me on her own accord). Anyway I should not reveal too much of her personal stuff here.

She said that there are so many things that she want to do, now is the best time for her to go out and see the brave new world. And it set me off thinking again.

My message to Ivy: Hey girl, I wish you all the best in whatever u do and pls take good care of yourself ok? You look a bit jaded today. You have my admiration for having the courage to make big decisions to go achieve what you want.


Thought of the day: These 2 frens of mine have to drive, motivation and courage to go and work for what they set out to achieve. I should draw some inspiration and motivation from them and start working towards my own goal as well (however small it may seem in comparison with them)
