Isn't this a common 'escapism' to our multi-coated life? Yah! I shall call it an 'escapism' because it actually means we take a flight, not fight our way to champion our pursuit and struggle.
Frankly, I nearly felt like giving up yesterday. All this while, I have put so much effort into my work, and I was so serious in scrutizing the process and product. But I had a bombshell yesterday evening when #### said he didn't see me doing anything!!!?
ok..I'm getting personal here, instead of being more professional. This just had to happen to me, so I had to face it like an adult. It may happen to you one day, but let's pray that it doesn't yaaa...
So, I really felt like giving up. But WHY should I? Afterall, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder;) So? Why bother? If I think I have done my work according to the specifications, and my work has been approved by a respectable committee of scholars, do I have to be affected by #### passing judgement like this?
Thoughts to ponder:
At times like this, let's tell ourselves that maaaaay beeeee - we don't need this EXTERNAL VALIDATION. We are what we believe we are, and we deserve some respect, even a tiny bit. #### doesn't have to undemine me for reasons that are made up out of sheer whatever:)
Today I'm back on my toes, and I'm so glad I'm ok...huh..even someone as adult as I am can be affected, but we all need to be a tough cookie sometimes.
Prayer:
Life is never a bed of roses, so when you find a happy and rewarding moment, live it to its fullest. May God bless all of you bloggers and readers, and you may want to share your adventure? in this roller-coaster ride:) Take care, and watch every step you make.

Woaa..Pn Zue seem like you in angry mood..Huhuhu..I'm really attract to read this article. After I finish reading this article, I feel that this article relate to me a lot.
The definition of escapism from Oxford dictionary is a form of activity that helps you avoid or forgot unpleasant or boring thing. This word derive from the word "Escape".But in this article escapism is synonym to give up.
Today I got MUET test and of course I almost give up.But my house mate advise me that I should never give on this test because the effect of this test to my life is really big. I may not able to work after graduate or might also not be able to graduate in Uniten. So I try my best today, and gladly I can make it much better. Today is oral test so I do my test with the stuff and experience that I had learned with you, Pn Zue.It really help me much as I can overcome my nervous.
The timetable for this special semester in Uniten quite tight for me and I feel like I wanna give up again( I not really always give up in everything, unless it burden my life ;D). In the morning, the class start from 10pm until the evening, 4.00pm and yeah it really tired. When I look the timetable for the next day,I feel like wanna give and don't want to go to class.Yet I remember what my parent told me before I become as Uniten's student " Although the class is tight, the academic is tough and the lecture didn't like you but you must keep on pushing yourself over limit because it will decide your life later" I always keep that in my mind but hehehe..in this foundation year, I still not really focus on my study. Always playing,loitering around, wasting time and sleep late. But my promise in degree for sure I will pump up myself.
I know that for some people give up is the last way to solve their problem but I'm totally disagree with that because we have to overcome it. Who know that if we able to solve our problem without giving up it might lead us to better life? So, my friends how about start from today let no word "Give up" in our life? Maybe we didn't see the beneficial today, but maybe tomorrow ,next week or next month? In Islam, our religion said they "God will not help them who not help them self". Keep it in mind. NEVER GIVE UP!
Hi Remy,
I like the way you handle the challenges in life. Keep up the good work, dear. It's so touching to actually hear that you remember and practice what we have worked on in class...I pray for more success for you. Well, spot on, no matter what happens, life has to go on. And I'm also very happy to hear about your MUET oral test performance. That's the way - express your opinion and communicate your thoughts. We're all entitled to speak up, and always remember to do it impressively in an evaluation:) Please join EDSoc. for more exposure to speaking practice and challenge in English. Contact Navin (President) or Vivek (VP). C U there, yah...
Hello dear puan Zue,
If i were you,Id ask him to tell me my shortcomings inside of work,then if he had been able to answer me in a reasonable way,then I would have accepted and improved myself,but if he could not persuade me with reasonable answers,then Id understand that there is something wrong with him not me.
The memory of ALLAH be always with us
Give up!! I think everyone felt it so as me..
I felt it when I have failed in my quizzes on that day. Through that I felt where my mistake is. I’ve studied hard and sometime until 5 or 6 am. After I know my result was so bad, I think I don’t want to study anymore. I sent a message to my dad about this. He calms me and said “thanks God for giving a lesson”. Maybe it has something wrong somewhere. I’m touched after that and I realize that all this are the tests from Allah.. sometime we’re the winner, and sometime we’re loser. Maybe this time I’m the loser, but I’M THE WINNER LATER!!
Now, I have a motto, which is “I CAN’T SPELL FAILURE” anymore..
thanks dad(Mat Lazim B Harun)4 giving me spirit!!!!! love you dad.. i hope u read my comment here..i'll send u an email after my comment approved..
sorry pn. zue,i'm so feeling...heheee
Have you ever feel down or stress up because of major problems such as studies, lovers or friends? These are common constraints faced by today’s youths. So, how can we overcome these problems and get rid from the word ‘GIVING UP’?
First and foremost, as the new future leaders, teenagers need to learn to become optimistic in every aspects of life including when dealing with huge problems. They have to take these problems as a challenge to improve themselves in order to become a dedicated and productive young nation. The second method is we need to think of the loved ones when we feel tensed. For instance, parents especially our beloved mothers are our biggest moral supports. As long as we think of them, we could gather the couragement to face our conflicts.
Problem will always be our best friend forever and ever. However, we should always try to find the best way to overcome it. Plus, we should always remember that problems or constraints teach us to become more patient and stronger.
salam madam zue..
i'm feeling attract to read this article because before entering UNITEN, i actually easily give up.. for instance, i will give up if someone underestimate me in doing my job...i want peoples around me satisfied with my work but in this world, we cannot make them all satisfied.. like you said in this article, all the committee respect or like your work but came that #### and say that you are not doing your work...yes, it is sound really rude and hurt your feeling...but that is a part of life, we can't satisfied all of them...now, i more matured than before... i don't care what peoples said about me or my work, i just wanna do the best in my studies and hope they respect me..
i'll be honest...
i dnt give up often cause i dont really commit to many things....
i found out dat i'm not good at commiting my time and my energy for somethg i dnt enjoy...
so why commit and give up....
i wouldnt say commitment is a bad thing... its good... as a guy... girl want to see the commitment in him... but too bad... probably dats y i got dumped and have no girlfriends.....*point to ponder*
Hi Pn.Zue...tis is my first post maybe...i was scrolling through the page...but tis particular topic attracted me so much...maybe bcoz i have experienced the same thing as you...
It was my schooling time..not so many years bak..nt just 1 year ago..i am the head prefect of the school and the responsibility is a bit more for me...I am in charge for all other prefects..
I usually will do the duty report every month..It is a report stating whether the prefects are doing the their duty or nt...i will usually not say anything bad on any of my prefects..if there is smething wrong on a particular prefect, i will call him/her and talk to them and it will get solved most of the time..
But..once there is a complaint on me that im not doing my work as wat i should..The complaint was made by a discipline teacher to my prefect board advisor teacher...i felt like giving up and all the hard work and effort that i made was just waste...
But i never said it to my teacher..it is in me until today..
Feel like giving up??
almost everytime i feel like that..
I was remember,when i was in form 3..
about 3 month before my pmr exam,i have a trial..and i still weak in almost of my subjec.But the very worse thing is i have fail for my science subject!:(
I feel so sad,giving up,depress and feel shame of myself.
But,suddenly something miracle happen.
Its was start when my principal want to meet me because of my result.I think she want to angry of me,but the opposite things happen.
She smile at me when i enter her room,she gives me advice that i would not forget until today:)
From that day i was change..100% i think:)
i never give up after that,before this i always give up when i got a bad mark even i study so hard.I always feel jealous when i know my friend get highest mark.
But after that i throw away all that feeling.
I realize what happen have their own reason.Maybe ALLAH want me to work hard more right.
And the result never makes me disappointed again..
I have pass my pmr with a flying colors:)
Just a small happiest memory that i want to share with you..
Sometimes i always think,what happen if i giving up too early before my exams..
maybe i will get the same result like my trial .
What i want to tell is,never give up even you know it is possible to do.Dont be jealous with anyone.Every humans have their own likelihood.Try and try until the end.I'm sure you will not regret to do so:)
I do feel this way too. TOO often in fact. But my situation is a little different. I love to draw. Drawing monsters, knights, and dragons, castle, beautiful maidens in distress. hehehehhe. Mostly i draw what i day dreamed.
But i still feel my drawing lacks of something. I have so may defects that i really felt like giving up.
But still i continue drawing nonetheless. I recently draw a characther which reminds me of a dream i had when i was young. the characther seemed to be evolving everytime i drew it. Changing its shape though its colour still remains the same.
Maybe due to my upbringing since young, my characther is becoming more violent and fierce base on its looks and weapons. Maybe psychologically, i am very much link to my own drawings.
This gives me strenght to go on. Cause deep down i knew that giving up drawing is giving up my own life. And that i must never do.
Salam mam zue…
Final examination will be two weeks from now. And now, I feel like giving up with some subject. I really don’t understand what it is. What I can do now is only read the notes given and try to memorize it. Even almost all my friend also got nothing from the class. So how we want to take seat for the paper? Oh my… and now, we are struggling to understand what this topic about. I hope madam zue will pray for us to do well in our final next two weeks.
