4 years ago, she was choosing between NUS FASS and NTU NBS. it was a tough choice at that point in time, cos it was a dilemma between practicality and interest. then she finally decide that numbers are out of her league. hence she started this journey with all the psych modules and LTs and tutorials and most importantly psych friends.

all along a mediocre student, her grades fell as she grew older. since primary school, she has got a downward gradient for her grades, and ultimately 16 years later, she graduated with a 3rdclasshonors. not the most ideal definitely, but that's what she earned myself after 4 years of studying/slacking.

she has many to thank along this long long journey. people who helped in many many different ways, most importantly she think is to listen to her whine about how stressed she was here and there, and seeing her break down a few times cause of her inability to take the load / pressure. others encouraged her greatly along the way so much so that she finds it easier to continue to finish up what she was supposed to do. so many times she thought she couldn't move on, but they were there to root her on, helping her revise what seem to be alien topics to her, especially those science mods (aka breadths mods). the teachers helped her a great deal too. even though she has her 'list' of favourite lecturers/tutors, everyone sort of helped her achieved her current results. with a bad habit of favouritism, she tend not to work as hard for mods with lecturers that she doesn't fancy. knowing that that is detrimental to her grades, she can't help but function this way, as they are unable to hold her interest in that mod. however, on the brighter side, there are some who are splendid in terms of their teaching method as well as how they made her felt her merit at some point in time. NUS a place that she called school for 4 years, and today, she declare herself no longer part of it, but one small piece in history.
