Bro got real sick today. As such, my study room today was tan tock seng hospital. Normally i would lament the lack of a condusive environment to study in, but instead i chose to reshape my reality. Where i was ceased to be a hospital. In my mind, in my reality, it is a condusive study room.
Whatever doctors or nurses walking around, old sick people coughing behind me, they are all figments of my imagination.
A little bit of delusion works wonders.
I completed the whole syllabus within the 4 hours spent there. Mental fatigue was at an all time high.
Imagination is a wonderful thing to help one construct his own reality.
The evening was met with a torrential downpour. A simple trick of the mind was all it took to imagine a rain free road. Well in fact i pulled a memory of that same road on a sunny day and superimposed it over the current image.......or lack of image rather, of a rain obscured highway.
sigh........exams are coming. Tuesday.
Sometimes i wonder if all this sacrifice is worth it. Sacrifice leisure time, time with friends, etc, all for studying.
Then my evil part of my brain kicks in.
And my theory is laid bare again.
Why study so hard??
Well if my intellegence level is 10 and most other people's intelligence level is 20(like some ppl in my class. Really bright people).
To retain 90% of the knowledge i desire, one must put in 30 skill points.
So if i ony have 10 intelligence points to contribute VS 20 points that other people have, that means in order to attain the same level of knowledge as those others, i have to study for up to 20 study points, which is twice that of what the intelligent people study.
But really, sometimes i feel the payoff isnt worth it.
I need a break.
I wonder if DD's dad will lend me a good DVD. maybe i should try to ask her......
