Overconfident

what's new? mufti day, another day, thursday, principal's speech, people, high speed internet broadband, being called strawberry by my friend, chai, shcoolwork, revision .... ne na ne na ne na...the thing that strikes me today is that we can sometimes be overconfident. i myself too am a victim of this natural phenomena. haha. from experience i learnt being overconfident can only kill us. last year, i nearly failed my add maths at one time. i got too confident and went to sit for the test without any real preparation. sure, i remember some formulas and some stuff about that topic but i was too complacent. i flipped my test paper as usual. first few question was alright. differentiate, differentiate, differentiate. then came the question. it was quite a simple one actually but my brain traffic was jammed for a while. the blood just didn't flow. i can get pretty subborn at times. being stubborn, i look at the question for half an hour without doing the rest.( i didn't wear a watch on that day too ... sighz...)well, the bell rang and time was up. there you go. two other questions i could have done and i might have got a better mark. the question here isn't why didn't i skipped this question and move on to the next one? It is why did i get too overconfident and think i am going to do well in it. if i was just oonfident, i will ask myself whehter i am prepared for this test. maybe that's some part i don't know. then i will practice more.i actually know how to answer later . it is just that i forgotten about it and didn't practice enough. this is the result. overconfidence lead to high comfort zone and then lead to carelessness. overconfidence will blind someone not to see the consequences of their actions. that's it. in the end we regret. this is life. there's a saying sometimes the things you are good at might just be the one that kill you.
