Words from the wise

~A Teaching Dedicated To My SIs~

February 26, 2008

You wish to know how am I? Well… your weird bro is doin fine… I’m still being the bro you know for 20+ years…
How’s my life you ask? Hm… for now… I would say my L.I.F.E. is making me a happy man~

Oyie… Things I think you should know before going to college…

1) When you go to class in the morning, evening or whenever… and see 1000 people doing the same thing… It’s normal, you’ll get a culture shock for a week… then you’ll get used to it

2) Lecturers should not be pissed off by you… they are the people who are going to give you your damn marks for your exam papers… they are the ones who are going to make a difference between you graduating or not… lecturers will give you shitty marks if they don’t like you (if you do shitty stuff in thier class or anything like that)…

3) There are many kinds of people there… (people who you may or may not live with for the a period of time in a place you will call "my 2nd home" during your studies)

a) "The high expectors" = People like these are freakin cry babies in the early stage of the 1st semesters… They will complain what the college don’t have… say many things about the things the college should have… and forget what the college actually have… In the end they just stop complaining and adapt to the college life-style… They will be either one from the next list of people…

b) "The President" = These peoples are the ones who will lead all the college’s activities… They are people who makes the college a "happening" place to live in… The nice ones are famous and liked by many… The not so nice ones are hated because people feels that they crave for power but don’t have any freakin idea how to actually do what their suppose to do…

c) "The free lancer" = The people who falls in this category are those who just don’t give a damn about what the hell those "The President" peoples are doing… They live a student life where they can achieve balance between studies and having fun easily… They enjoy the things / activities done by the "The President" people… which is considered very "smart" by myself, because they are the ones who is going to enjoy the "show"

d) "The Einsteins" = These people are mostly rare to find beacause they blend in many various sections of group… They are very very smart people beacuse of hard work or they are just damn freakinly born a genius… Most of them are nice people and will help you in your studies if you are nice to them as well…

e) "The Bussiness tycoon" = These are people who are usually wants more money because of hardship in their lifes… They sell Top-Ups, CDs which has a string of episodes of "Heroes" or Korean movies and foods are also possible…

f) Let’s just let you learn about the "Others"

4) Take care of your things… handphones are favourite items inthe eyes of the "Stealth Thief"…

5) Assignments are things given by lecturers to make your studies a little more challenging… These things are something you sometimes refer to "The Einstein" people to help yourself…

6) I will never say studying will be easy for you… all I can say is "Make Your College Life as Enjoying as Possible" it would be great to score high marks and all… but… do have balance in your college L.I.F.E… enjoy your time with friends… make connections… build bridges… help others if you are able… beacause you will never know whose the person that can help you back in the future… Be nice to everyone for kindness is blessed with kindness as well…

7) Don’t forget to give Mom and Dad a call once in a while…

Use the money given and trusted to you WISELY… Mom doesn’t have a job and our Dad is going to be 56 of age already… remember that… It is up to us (the 3 of us sibblings) to actually help each other in the future…

9) Take care of yourself… (I believe you know best how to already)

10) My love to you as a brother would always be with you… I will always pray for your success and well being… I hope to see you be a better person after your "journey" through the years being a college student… Don’t forget to pray for Mom & Dad… and most of all pray for yourself…

11) Do not belittle yourself… don’t worry about not knowing anyone in the beginning at the college… beacause… you CAN and I am very sure you WILL always shine and make other people smile
