Failure And Success

I’d never thought that I’ll be teaching students for their higher education, never in a million years. Seeing my students can’t handle my IT subjects are surely something to be dissapointed about. Looking back when I’m still studying, I never thought much of it myself.

Back then, I’m an okay student, but not a great student. I have my own weakness too. They are subjects that are too hard for me to handle, or even take interest on.

Primary / Secondary

I never take interest in Geography, or even Add Math in the first place. Luckily, the Math subject is just challenging yet interesting enough to give me some sort of fullfillment during my studies.

Matriculation

This is where everything got even worst. My grades are falling, I lost my interest in all subjects that was taught during this time. My only salvation? Computers! Ironically enough, it’s not about playing games, but more or less learning to codes some stuffs using the LUA language. This is possibly my first exposure to the world of computer science. Mind you, this predates easy-to-access internet connection. Even our phones didn’t have data (only Voice Call and SMS). Any chances I got to access internet (Cyber Cafe, Library), it’s mostly used to download tutorials and guides on LUA and trying to brute force my way into learning something.



I'll update this later when I have some time
