I guess when people around you expect you to do well, you do feel a lot more stressed than others who are not expected to do well. Say you got a 75% whereas people expect you to get 90%. People will just criticise you to the bottom. Well that's happening to me at the moment. I did a fairly sloppy job (in my own standards) in my probability test, and now... I am feeling the need to study more on maths.
I guess the best way to keep yourself up is to ignore those (which is fairly hard) criticism and try to work my way out.
It is sad to announce that I have to welcome Aqualiner-san to the house of first-time-rejected lads.
He's been there trying to ask kouhai-chan out which is his first time. He evidently got rejected (just like the rest of us) a few hours ago. Poor sod and I have been there comforting him. Good job on asking someone out for the first time. It's a big step in life :).
I have been there supporting him over twitter for all that long. Even more so after I got myself added to the house of first-time-rejected lads as a result of asking someone out for the first time. The rest of this story is too painful for me to tell, really don't ask me about it. Unless you are in for some sort of serious mental torment.
I have been talking to him quite a lot and giving him hints to how to work things out. Well it didn't work out at all :(. But really one can move on the next thing, a end is a new start. That's what I learnt form my school's chaplain. I walked into trouble and she really rescued me. Now I am back to a man of Otaku and no-lifing ;) . He really should move on just like the rest of us.
I need to help him to move on and everyone should also help him out.
