A month had passed again, and I kept getting busier and busier.
As much as I wanted to keep you guys updated on everything that had been happening, I couldn't because I was also busy with preparations for the whole month of September, and actually, the contests that I participated in just finished last week.
Our ICT week was the whole week of last week.
And if you guys were asking how it went. I'm also puzzled if I will consider it a victory or not.
I mean, I know I did all the effort I possibly could do at the moment, but at some point in my life, I regretted my nearsighted vision.
If only I had seen the bugs during the hackathon, I wouldn't be the biggest burden for Mikhael, even though he said many times that he understood.
I still feel bad because I feel like I'm not doing enough. Even if I won 2nd place in the graphic contest and we won 1st place at the hackathon, I can't help but feel bad, because probably we might be going to be champions and might be our university's representatives.
If only I hadn't made a mistake, my friends and even my sister told me, I shouldn't be hard on myself. Because they have seen how much I worked hard for this moment, but I really just can't help but think of possibilities and what-ifs.
What if I applied that eagle eye, even though I have an eye problem? When I heard that we were in first place, I decided to turn off my camera for a while to give myself time to feel and let all my tears fall.
My sister Vien saw it, and she comforted me and assured me I could always try my best next time.
But I guess I need to take time to accept it all. I know I shouldn't be dwelling on this one failure, but I guess this is one of my not-so-good attitudes every time I face failures.
That is why I am asking, after all that happened, did I win? Or was I just placed as a placer because I haven't done more?
But there's no point in blaming and making things harder for me. I guess I will just take this as a challenge and a lesson learned.
So that next time I won't repeat the same mistake. I will strive more in the future and turn this situation into an inspiration and even an opportunity for me to learn more.
Opportunity to improve, at least for now. I already knew which part I had a weakness in.
So that I can work on it more. I know someday I will no longer ask the question "Did I win?" because I am sure I will get that champion prize soon.
I just need to be patient and have faith.
