Next week I have midterm exams! I study in the engineering department, and this year is the last year for me, God willing. I should graduate in June 2016. In [my] high school days, I was a very hardworking and distinguished student. I was loved by the teachers and I was always competing for first place in the rank of my class and the school. But the situation changed when I entered college. In the second year, my grades forced me to enter a department other than the one I wanted. The department that I entered is called “Industrial Engineering”. I didn’t like it much, or in better words, I didn’t know much about it. I remained upset for a long time. I wasn’t interested, and I wasn’t attending any lectures and I wasn’t studying except at exam time. But thank God, I was passing. But of course with very bad grades. Over time, I started to like my major. And I found out later that this is the most suitable major for me and for my potentials! I think now if I went back in time, I would prefer this department over any other department. Unfortunately, I found that out a bit late. But I’ve learned when I’m forced [to do] something and I have no other choices, that I’m content with what God has chosen for me, and I try to take advantage of it to the maximum limit. Because at the end you might find out that this was the most suitable path for you from the beginning. Anyway, after my very bad grades in the past two years, I have decided to call upon the days of high school. This year, I’m attending all lectures and studying on a regular basis, and I’m also intending, if God wills, to compete for a good rank in my class. Next week I’ll go through the first official exams this year. And even though I’ve been through much harder exams than this, I feel a bit worried… like in [my] high school days. Maybe this is a good sign?! So, wish me luck because I’ll definitely need it.
