Give me the truth

Give me one truth of this: Is academic result really really important? 

I will probably get the answer - No. Like what my dad always tell me, it's ok if you dont get A, as long you pass. That's the world's biggest comfort to me lol. I am no smart smart ass, I never was lol. My parents never give me a tiny bit of pressure in academic results, as long I pass, they are happy. Hmm I am the one who give pressure to myself during exam period. Yehh..probably because of my friends around me are smart and hardworking and score damn high marks in exams lah. That's why I will have the urge to 'catch up' with them so I won't be left out lol. Very Asian hor. Asians are like that I suppose, cannot be left behind people one haha. Am I right? I don't know why I've got this feeling that I must ' catch up' with my friends who gets good grades, perhaps I don't want them to look down on me. Well, they don't look down on me when I tell them my lousy grades, the close ones won't...but who knows right? Hypocrite everywhere lol. I think too much I guess. Ahh, here comes the application of this quote - Your biggest enemy is yourself. True enough. My dad asked me when I failed my Biochemistry last year (still, DAMN IT!), when I complained that why the others who don't go to class can pass, then my dad goes... "aiyooo why compete with others? why put yourself in such pressure? ah girl, why? " Yeah, why? It's just something inside me because I am pure Asian I guess. I wish to take this off, bloody annoying please. Why must I compete with others? Why why why? 

Anyway, there's still advantage if we compete with others - we will improve somehow lol. we will force ourselves to improve, like die die also must improve and not let them look down or at least we are in the same level lol.

But one thing I cannot take is that those smart ass act like they don't know anything. Walao, please lah please. Cut it off thanks. 

A wall of words. Ciaoz. 

Hmm, I think the truth for my question is still yet to be answered. It really depends on ourselves I guess. Bye.
