Yes, we collected the results yesterday and I got an L1R5 of 11. Mediocre result, but it was kinda expected. I can't say I'm sad, but I'm not that happy either. Congratulations to all who have done well and keep up the good work! For those who didn't do ask well as you've expected, it's alright. (Perhaps I'm in no position to say this, but trust me, it's definitely not the end of the world, remember? It's in 2012! Nah, definitely not a believer of it) But anyway, no matter what result you get, where you go, or who you're with, do not slow down your pace of life. In fact, we should all take bigger steps in life and move on with it. There's nothing to fear about failures in life, they just make us even stronger than before. We can choose to grieve about them, but isn't it better to learn our lessons, know our mistakes and move on with life as a stronger person? Here's hoping that everyone (no matter who you are, no matter if I like you or dislike you, no matter how well you fared for Os) would get into their desired schools and no matter where you guys go, be happy with it as what's in store would be better as God is always with us. :) I have no idea when I've begun to talk about God, but as a Buddhist, we believe there's such a thing as blessing from God. And I'm really lucky to have been one of them.
I know I shouldn't be talking about grades and all those stuff, but I really wanna share with you guys the joy that I felt! I've actually got an A2 for Chemistry! Alright, it might be nothing to you but to me, it's like everything. (hyperbole, but oh whatever) I've been failing it since Secondary Three and I've never passed any one of the exams or tests on this subject. Yeah, that's really sad. Even when studying for it, I've been telling myself no to expect anything better than a grade C as I would be more than happy to actually pass it. But miracles do happen, and of course, I studied hard for it. For your information, I'm not a "chemically-inclined" person and therefore while others can remember the content as well as a nursery rhyme, I had to spend more time and effort and do hardcore memorising so that I can regurgitate the content in the exam hall. That's how difficult it is for me to study Chemistry. And of course, there are more content-based subjects which I had to memorise and it wasn't easy for me. So anyway, it was really a blessing for me to get an A2 for Chemistry and it's really unexpected. :) And another subject that I'm really happy for is Literature in English. Well, I haven't been doing as bad as Chemistry as for it but for the two years studying it, I haven't got an A. My results for Literature were mediocre and well, sometimes even a fail in some essays. But I've got an A1 for it! It's God's blessing again and, we must also thank Ms Angelina Tang, our Literature teacher who helped us a lot. (even though some of us thought that some lessons were rather ridiculous, hehe)
So anyway, I'm finished with sharing my joy and yes, the results were really unexpected. I didn't really dare or bother to ask anyone except for my close friends about their results as I'm afraid that they would lead to awkward situations. Fortunately all my friends did well and none of them needed comforting! :D Gladness. But I've heard some of the sad cases whereby outstanding students had unexpected results. I just hope they would pull themselves up and stand up again. After all, it's part of life and yes, life still goes on no matter what happens.
Alrght, I should just stop talking about results since I'm neither here nor there, happy nor sad. Okay, but I'm sure that I would be happy to get into MJC. I've browsed their school's photography club website and it looks awesomely cool! They even went to Perth in 2007! I hope I do have a chance to join them if there should be another overseas trip! :D The club looks so interesting and I totally love their photos. However, I still have to consider about choir after what Ms Yeo have told me cos' that's where I "shine" in. Well, I don't really know what to say, but to be honest, my passion for singing in choir is sadly, not as strong as before. Perhaps I can only get the joy of singing in Dmnchoir as I find it hard to adapt to different teaching methods, especially in the area of singing. Furthermore, I don't really like the politics problems there. Yes, indeed, like what Ms Yeo have said, I can just mind my own business, but the thing is, I'm not living in my own world and after all, I still care about people around me. (and I can be quite busybody sometimes) *Sigh* Why am I wavering at this time? I guess it's time for me to think about it so that I wouldn't do anything that would make me regret.
Currently, we still have to wait till the 26th to know the results and well, I'm praying hard that MJ would accept me or I'd have to travel very far from home! Gah, I guess I can only leave it up to God. Whatever He has in store for it, they'll definitely be the best and I would be appreciative. :) Going off now so see you guys next time! Adiós!
