It's pretty much like uni/poly where there are so many different "modules" to cover and after a few "modules" there's one consolidating practical exam. What I love about the practical exam is that YOU CANT MUG FOR IT! Books are a definite NO-NO for me. Glad that most of the time are spent in the simulator instead of hitting the books.

Sad to say, there are still a lot of vital information that needs to be STUDIED and hence the theory exams. Speaking of which, the next theory exam is NEXT WEEK! To add icing to the cake, there's also a project presentation in the same week. I guess I'm going through the motion of things and hopefully it continues on this momentum. Most of the time I love the feeling of being so caught up in work cause time seem to pass faster. I love the sense of achievement when works get done PROPERLY with STANDARDS. Does this make me a workaholic? Or a high performer?
Still the same worry though, part of me is scared to OOC. I'm scared of failing because I want to do well. Part of me is fighting to better myself everyday, just to see how far I can push myself. I'm somewhat a perfectionist and I demand high standards for myself. Then again, personal standards are subjective. For example completing 2.4km in 10mins may be considered a "high standard" to someone else but for me if I manage to hit 12mins I'd be over the moon! Does it mean 10mins is a higher standard than 12mins? What are the criteria to determine so?
I believe strongly in healthy competition where everyone strives together and excel. Maybe it may seem a tad bit idealistic since it requires everyone to be altruistic but still, what's the point of reaching the top but you're stepping on others? What respect will you earn?
