First of all, sorry for the long period of absence, i was living a life of a massive train wreck where time is of no presence in the entity of rush. I wouldn't lie and say that i love my lecturers, tutors, academic adviser and certain peers at that time, neither would i lie and say that i appreciate those who backstab me to gain certain favors from the lecturers for themselves too, and the worst shit of all was to these kinds of conversation after an extremely hard final exam.
: hey, so hows the paper? what do you think?
: it was easy, almost close to the tips given.
: errr, wait a minute, what tips man?
: didnt you get the tips???

It's not just the willpower and responsibility that counts, there are many other factors which may seriously damage your credibility. Issues such as bad health can literally kill you if you are facing flu and headaches during your exam week. Apart from the usual hardworking thing of attending class, passing up every assignments and punctuality, there are many other actions i learnt of which i think will be useful to help survive the entire ordeal.
1. Suck up to the tutors. Be as cute as a hello kitty doll.
2 Massive suck up to the lecturers. yes, laugh at lame jokes.
3 At the class, sit in front row so that they can actually remember your name.

6 In free time, stop frolicking with chicks, meet the lecturers and create small chats
7 Approach the lecturers from time to time, they might sympathize you in the final exam.
8 Try to get tips and solutions early and resourcefully to avoid any stupid mistakes.
