It isn't pleasant, when you fail the one thing you perceive yourself to be good at. To add salt to the wound, my other endeavours have also fail. It hurts to see others succeed at something you have fail at, something perhaps I have taken for granted.
Maybe it could be the best thing that ever happened to me. Like when Steve Jobs got fired from Apple (Yes, like everyone else, I am in 'appreciate Steve Jobs' mode even though I don't own a single Apple product). It could be the wake-up call I needed.
I admit, I love to make excuses for my failures. But at the back of my head, I know I am the one losing out. Whatever perceived 'failures' I experienced from the last few months, I accept my part of the blame. I hope to have learned heaps from that. What could have, should have, may have is irrelevant now. It's time to start again.

Jeric, i am glad to see you take this as a learning opportunity. You couldn't have put it better when you said it is a wake-up call. I have great faith in you and your brainpower and perseverance. If you have made up your mind to move forward and work your ass off, i am sure you will make it. The brain is that powerful.
