The second chance... Thank GOD!

After the panic of my failure to upload the edited photos that I made, it was a God's given gift when we were given a second chance. I cannot help but feel a sense of full relief.

The task of the photo editing should have been done earlier and so I did not blame anyone but myself when I failed to upload it in time. It just come as something unfair to me, when I had done the task ealier than those who manage to upload it on adec. So I began to wonder, why this happened?

I think it happened due to confusion on the date due. When we were told that we had to handed it in by sunday, I truly thought that that means we were to hand it before monday. I have no idea that we have to hand it in before 00:00 sunday. And the fact that we were told to upload it only four hours before the due time, gave some who doent have access to the internet 24hours to be uninformed of that update. Of course, as students, we need to keep updating ourselves, but although I did that (updating every few hours) it would be possible for some to missed that very update as it was delivered very close to the end of the date due.

Nevertheless, as people said, 'when you points to someone, three of your fingers are pointing to yourselves'. I think in this issue, that means that if I had done the task ealier, and upload it before the given due, I would not had face such problems. It was not anyone's fault but myself.

So I learnt from this experience. I learn to finish the task before the date due to avoide any problems, and I learn to try not to blame it to anyone else but myself so that I can face any challenges when the same problems occurs again.

What we have done (late upload) was something that also our fault. I will do my work even better next time so she wouldnt have to feel such let down by us again. I promise that I will try my best and make an even better photo to compensate for my earlier mistake.
