| • Intuitive, led by feelings | • Analytical, led by logic |
| • Process ideas simultaneously I think too much. And I multitasks! | • Process ideas sequentially, step by step |
| • 'Mind photos' used to remember things, writing things down or illustrating them helps you remember I remember faces but not names. | • Words used to remember things, remember names rather than faces |

I have seriously screwed up my calculus 2 exam. It's my all-time low.
I think I will disclose my score in this exam after I have finished this semester. It's something most people would not have expected me to obtain.
But well at least, I know why I did so badly. It's not so much about me not knowing my calculus, but more to me being too nervous. But hey, it's just another exam. Yes yes. I am making excuses you may think. So?
I think it's a good step to get acquainted with bad grades. At least, this will lower my expectations in the future.
Sometimes, it's ironic that I am majoring in Mathematics. I have never been outstanding in it. I make all sorts of stupid math mistakes. And I often screw up non-typical questions, however easy they may be.
But thank god, I am in Michigan! I can frigging major in Economics and Political Science!!!

Tired. Busy. Distracted. Tempted.
Life's difficult in Ann Arbor. It's a tough school to crack.
T.T
But I like it. XD

It's never too late. I am finally able to move on. I am really happy at the moment. I won't let anything spoil it.
I have promised myself a redemption. Yes. It will be! Just when that time has come, I will have the last laugh, mind you.
