Left...

It´s always true.

When you no longer posess something, you miss it.

Not only does it fit on relationship, but everything, including your brain.

Here´s my story.

Weeks ago, when I went to Tsang´s for Additional Mathematics tution as usual, I had difficulties doing lots of the questions. I stuck, which was unusual to me. Even though sometimes it might take me more or less five minutes to solve particularly hard questions, I didn´t have the slightest problem doing the ¨formulated¨ ones. It had changed, without my knowledge. Since several weeks ago I could no longer find the solution by myself, I must look at the hints on that sheet or peek at the people who once asked me how to solve questions all the time. I ASKED THE PEOPLE WHO WAS MUCH WEAKER THAN ME. Okay, so what about the simple ¨formulated¨ questions? Guess what, I could rarely got the answer right even doing the simple calculation, such as addition, subtraction, to name but a few. As soon as I realised that I started to convince myself that all that was just because I didn't get enough sleep, and if I go to bed earlier and I could be like what I was like before.

I was proved to be wrong, completely.

After weeks, I found that no matter when I go to bed, nothing have changed. I am still like a noob, that I have to rely on the people who once asked me all those silly questions, of which I laughed at them.

This situation hasn't changed at all until now, which is why I am writing this entry. I guess my "Maths gene" had left me without my notice, with unknown reasons.

I am depressed. I shed tears. I cry.

What can I do to get my Maths Gene back?

God, please help me, coz' this is my only pleasure in this game. When I realised that my Maths Gene had left me and I became a dumb, I am shocked, not knowing what to do.

Please help me, God.

Love,

Kelvin, who begins to believe once again since primary school that God's here.

Hey~ this seems a bit strange to me, because the writer doesn't seems to be the kelvin I know.

Hey, cheer up~~~!!! Where's my confident friend that competed with me during the A.math course? Who is the only one dared to approach me in the class when I thought I was labelled "crazy" by others? That was really a brave act by the way. If you didn't approach me at that time, I think I will not get myself a special friend like you.

Although we are not in the same class now for the A.Maths course, but hey, I still take you as my "imagined" competitor during class, even though you don't seat in front of me. ^^

So, come on, cheer up boy.

Let me tell you a great secret.

Nobody has stolen your "math genes". The problem is .. you hide your own confidence. You didnt' "lose", you just "put it aside" because you don't believe in yourself.

I hope you remember the film about Christmas, that "only shall you believe" idea. That's what you need.

If you are willing to trust yourself, your mind will become clear. How about next time, when u meet a question that you think "you cannot solve", you take a good breath and think about it twice. Sometimes, it doesn't work for you to "push yourself", because things will go by their own. You need not worry much.

^^ So, be the confident Kelvin !
