Life Is Full of Unexpectancy. BUT . if You Put in Ample Hardwork, Unexpectancy will Turn into Moments of Joy
Yesterday was a meaningful day. I woke up early in the morning and when I caught a sudden glimpse on my mobile screen, I was delighted. Two messages was received and both were encouragements from my friends! (Credits to Amanda Poon & Charmaine Tan)
I went off to work as soon as I could get, and there, I received encouragements from my collegues and boss. I felt touched for the first time when I knew so many people cares for me. (Thanks to Albert Ng,Bel Quek,Joanna Chen, Yuan & Ken Goh)
My anxiety level did not decrease much for when I was in 171, on the way to school, I daydreamed of myself failing English and Humanities, having nowhere to go. I was behaving that way because, I really did not put in real efforts to study for that two subjects and even those that I was doing well, I have no confidence at all. I couldn't even buck up my courage and walk into the school. I have to wait for Yvonne to come!
While in the hall, when Mr. Francis Tan told me that there was 3 10-Pointers in our class and asked me whether I would be one of them, I couldn't catch what he meant. Does he has the intention to make me feel that I did well bud in fact, I didn't? My heart was pounding fast when the ceremony starts, I was wondering whether could I pass English and also, get enough points to go into courses I desires. When the slide was flashed, 11pupils from Express stream fails English!!! I wanted so much to scream! Could it be me? I thought at that moment. Then, there comes the outstanding pupils awards that obtained L1B5 of 10pTs and Less... The last slide for this section contained pupils from our class, the last 3 that obtained 10pointers. When I opened my eyes from shockness, I saw my name and my photo on the screen! I almost screamed out and I stood up immediately! (Congrats Yinqing & Ragu too, they are the other two 10-pointers with me)
I was even shocked when I saw that I obtained a B3 for my English! I scored 50marks exactly for Prelims and now, I gotten a B3? Its a 3-grades difference! Okay, fun over, time to reveal the rest of my results!
When I heard Priyaa failed her combined Humans, I was shocked, and I decided to tell Mr Teo sorry if he told me I failed C.Humans! When I get to Mr Teo, my first question was "Mr Teo, I got pass my Humans?" And then followed by "My English got B3 leh!" He replied with "Lucky you, got B3" And I was saying "Ya, I knew my English got B3, my Humans leh?" "B3 lAr!"-was what he said! "Ahhhhh!" was the first reaction I gave to him and when I ask him whether he's surprised I obtained B3 in these two subjects, he frowned and told me I could do better than that. My heart sunk. Please lor, I got a D7/E8 for my Humans in Prelims leh! Its a 4or5-grades jump leh!
Last but not the least, I have 5 distinctions! I got 11for L1R5, 10for L1B5 & 8for L1R2B2!!!!! My Maths, Science, and POA got A1.... All my grades were exactly as per what I have targetted for myself!!!! I love my O'lEvels results slip!!!!
Finally, I want to thank Mr Emmanuel Teo for not looking down on me since Jan'07, giving me encouragements throughout my 2 years with the dragons. Also, he helped me in my EL and Humans alot (which were my worse subjects of all) AND not forgetting all the teachers and friends that walked me through my last part in Yishun Town!!! I love you all!! AND Dragons, thanks for befriending me!!!
Still, I wanna thank a person that was always with me no matter what. Dar` I love you very very much, I will continue to strive hard in future, making up a beautiful path of future for us... I love you!!!
Hugs,
