Self-handicapping on My Previous Senior High


When I was in Senior High, I was not interested on my academic performance because I was in science class and studying was not fun at all. I was more interested on camping with scout, practicing on theater club, exercising martial art for competition, sometimes playing basketball and take a part in some organizations. Therefore it seemed that I ignored all the assignments. I did my homework in last minutes before I went to school so it was not finished. Fortunately some of my classmates did so because they also focused on non-academic performance. Therefore together we just copied the answers from a diligent friend.
I also seldom studying before quiz but I was trying my best to get good score. Actually it was because I had no time to study and lazy to open the previous material. Somehow I had determined to show my friends and teachers that doing what I like in non-academic part had no bad effects on my academic performance. It was non-sense but sometimes I was lucky to get good score and some of my friends looked at me just like they exclaimed “How could she?”.  Then I showed my ‘devil smile’. It was satisfying, believe me.
However I did not habituate and habituated to blame others when unpleasant things happened. One day I ever did my remedial quiz twice alone for physic because my score was bad. I did it calmly because I knew it was because of me. At the time I had martial art competition and absent for some days. At least it was accomplished even in slow motion.
