[ a morbid fascination that borders on obsession. ]

Time and time again the crux of my slothfulness and inabilities(more than1 hence the s) rears it ugly head right at the right moment. If underachievement were a skill, i would have excelled it with flying colours beyond grades, hence the perennial underachiever. Once again i'm left to bite the dust with inferiorly mediocre grades that barely meet expectations; mine, yours, them. I say, its a bitter disappointment. A terrible waste i must say. Beyond a doubt, you can't spin gold from a yarn of hay just like Rumplestiltskin did. Likewise, i can't expect to obtains results that does not equal to my efforts. Firstly, that needs to be rectified as soon as possible.
Talk is cheap, i know. I'm been ramblings the same bullshit over and over again, and what, nothing has changed. Thus forth, herein lies thy Achilles' heel. My will power is my Judas. My weak perseverence is my Brutus. The results ain't out yet, but i can feel it looming. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to predict the grades i'm going to get. Its still subject to variation from my premature foreboding. I don't want to prognosticate or prophesy even an approximation, just let the figures do the talking.
Earth wasn't made in a day, and the neither will the journey i am on. Rather ironically, i can see everything childishly simple. I can always envision it somewhere deep in my mind, yet there is this invisible mental barrier than prevents the full transition of information from cells to words. It forms a vague and hazy picture which seems so close but when i reach my hand out to it, it fades and retracts. So near, yet so far. Indeed.
I have always believed that i am capable of achieving anything, well that of within a human's means. I can't escape from being bound, shackled, sealed in a crate and thrown from the Niagra Falls; i'm no Houdini. As long as i try, put in my heart and soul, leave no stone unturned, there won't be a mission impossible. Just as Arthur Robert Ashe Jr says," Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is more than the outcome. Not everyone can be number one."
If i may add, if you work hard, you shall be duly rewarded.
