A CANAL IN MY YELLOW BRICK ROAD
|
|
|
“Congratulations!” This greeting reverberates through the third floor corridor walls of our building as classmates and teachers cross my path. A grateful me shouts back an oh-so-cheerful “Thanks!” to all of them. It was a day of victory for me because unexpectedly, I made it to the top of the Director’s List. What a great first time! Never had I thought that I would make it as far as overtaking our batch valedictorian and salutatorian in the honor roll. The odd thing was, I didn’t know how in the world I have done it. I mean, my happy-go-lucky attitude doesn’t usually work during other quarters of the school year. How the heck, then, did I do it without so much effort? After giving it much thought, I reached to a conclusion that it was because I was more relaxed and more prepared for the challenges that were thrown at me during the time. With this achievement, I vowed to be a good student by studying well during the next quarters so as to continue my well-started year. But sad to say, I failed. Although many external factors led to this failure, I realized that it was also because of my lack of confidence in my own ability as a scholar. I was a victim of “crab mentality”.
