Yes or No

A thought suddenly came to my mind: should I take minor? Trying to delete this thought as I've heard from seniors that taking minor is really tiring. But unfortunately, this thought just stuck in my mind. Well, I surrendered by taking out the psychology handbook and looked through the course structure.

Ok, I have to take 7 free electives in total through out the 3-year course. Look at the total subjects offered in minor, 7 subjects too. Since the total subjects is the same, why not minor?It looks 'nice' in my transcript. Hmm..let's see what are the minors that are related to my current elective, principle of microeconomics. There are International Business and Finance. Well, I'll go for International Business, no doubt. Finance is just not for me.

So, here comes the question, should I take minor? I have to take an extra subject as the last subject of Int. Business requires a total of 3 Year 2 Management subjects, the list has only 2 Year 2 Management subjects. Thinking this is the worst part? Then you're wrong. The worst part is I have no holiday in July and August. Why so? Because the business department is having a long sem while psychology department is having a short sem. This means that while my other course mates are enjoying the long holiday, I'm stuck in my minor.

Ish...hate this!!!

Results

I've been quite nervous since Wednesday night, but lucky me, i got to sleep really tight :)
HELP is really slow in releasing the results, waited for the whole morning and the results were not out yet. Frustrated, i ended up shutting down my laptop and then continue reading my novel.

45 mins later, I was not in a mood of reading at all, so I decided to switch on my laptop again, hoping that this time the results were out. I didn't pray for getting good results or whatever, just hoping that the results were there. (Thank god the speed of the internet connection was fast) When I signed in my account, ah ha...results were out! Satisfactory, I would say. A- for Business Comm., B+ for Project Management (guess such good grade is due to the assignments, good group members are important!), and B for Research Methodology and Introduction to Psychology 2.

I've received sms from 2 friends asking my grade, I got the same grade as them, 3.4/4. They're not satisfied, should I feel the same way as them? But I was kinda satisfied with it, being a 1st year and 1st sem student, such grades were considered not bad. (Giving lotz of excuses to make me feel better, haha.)

Well, what's the most important is that I've tried my best, so no regrets at all ;)
