finally, the o level results was announced today. all that i had been slogging for for so long has finally come to a close. memories rushed back as i stepped back into the school compound, i realised that i really missed scgs....
hmm.. i don't know how to start.. i am still quite puzzled about my grades lah.. can't believe it actually happened to me.
yar.. this was how the day started for me...
i went to hci for lessons in the morning... we had boring econs presentations which was followed by an intermission of the polar bear game, then judith cheng's OAG gossip session. haha. quite fun.. i wasn't really nervous throughout the day lah.. i guess i am weird.
then went to glori's house with wen, sam and chelly to just update each other about our lives and stuff, yupz, and it was really entertaining.. haha. we really should have more of such updates.
anyway... it was finally 130pm and we headed back to school for the results.
miss heng gave her speech about how we fared... it wasn't too ideal compared to last year, especially for english, SY and SE did very badly. but there were improvements in other subjects lah.. but overall, we didn't do that well. i was quite scared.. but i guess i was prepared for the worst, so it wasn't too bad lah.
so miss heng went on to announce the top scorers.. it was erm. quite or should i say, TOTALLY unexpected. yar. i really cannot believe my score. i am guilty about it. i tied with luyun and chelly.
anyway, i seriously think nobody expected me to get what i got. i am still quite puzzled myself. honestly, i have never done so well in my life. my lowest L1R5 that i had was for prelims and it was 7, so i really didn't expect myself to get what i got. i really didn't wish to tell s72 my grade, but apparently 2 guys already know, i am not going to say who coz it is best that my grade remains unknown. all i can say is that i can make it back to hci.
i know i should have felt happy, but i didn't. in fact, i didn't feel anything and i still don't feel anything. i felt that i have robbed a lot of pple of their grades.. aiyayaya. i know i didn't actually rob it, but i can't help feeling guilty surpassing them suddenly. it isn't quite ethical. besides, i know some pple are quite sore of my grade. like this girl she was like 'waa. become so arrogant now ah?', i think it was meant to by a joke, but i could sense she was quite sore. i don't wanna name her coz it would only complicate matters. anyway, A LOT of pple were crying after they got their grades and i really didn't know what to do. i mean, from my stand, it wasn't very appropriate for me to comfort them, but on the other hand, as a friend, i really wanted to give them a hug to comfort them and tell them that everything is ok. i gave them hugs anyway. hope they feel better.
mrs lim siew jew says that i owe everyone a treat. i think so too. shiqi says that i should give her a treat, i will, so don't worry!
when i called my mum just now to tell her the grades, i could sense that she was kinda stunned. haha. but she was happy lah. i could sense her excitement and disbelief. lolz! anyway, i am glad i did my mum proud. apparently, my uncle and my grandfather called to congratulate me too, but i wasn't in. how news spread...
anyway.. my grades are really not much to be proud of since almost all the nanyang girls and tchs guys in s72 did very well.
i hope everyone remains happy.
