Hardwork- Paid Off!
Today is 27/1/08, and i m here to write on my past few days experiences.. I know lots of ppl do not have the mood to look at blogs, cos its either this or that.. Which is related to their GCE 'O' Level examinations results.. But for me, i will also touch on this topic.. Cos i think i deserve it..
24/1/08, the day when the results were released... Ok, on that day itself, i had my breakfast at 10am.. At 11.50am, i was alreasy dressed and went to SI MA LU KUAN INN temple to do prayers.. Oh, someone will definitely say"Stan, u think after u pray the results will change ah? Pls, its already printer".. Its really true, but at least it gave me a peace of mind.. I felt good after praying..
But when i was on my way to the school hawker, Ian sms me.. I was in the train listening to music in the train and i received this:I jus heard that the 5nadidn't do well the year.. esp English.. MSG 6.7.. siao liao.."
I believe if u r the one seeing this, ur heart will definitely pound even faster.. I was already nervous and saw this news again, the blow was big.. Furthermore u should know STan's English is utterly bad... At the point of time i felt really lost.. I had no confidence in myself at all and predict that i will get D7... SIgh..
I had no appetite.. Even if u give me shark fin soup, i will still shun off.. But i drank a cup of sour plum juice.. Felt better.. On my way to the hall, its really very fast.. Once i reach the hall, we were told to sit down...
5 mins later Brenda Tan was at the scene.. I saw her giving out chocolates.. Once i saw that, i knew it was for her distinction students... She gave to Ian, Chan Lin, Bryan and Shariff.. She saw me, i was hoping for her to give me, but she said" U missed it"..
There goes my distinction club... Sigh.. So ya, after Ceicelia's words, its time for results.. Miss Lim Soo Ling "Amm Chio".. So i went to a corner to see my results.. I expected the 1st line to be a Seven... But it was a FIVE!! Waa i felt really good.. Secondly i saw 3 A's.. But i was looking whether they include my Maths.. But i can't see Mathematics.. So which means 1 actual fact i will get 4 As.. So i dashed to Mr Chia and Mr Ho to ask them whether i m considered 1 of the Distinction Club members.. HE said yes.. So i put down my name and contact no. and continue to view my results..
English Language FIVE C
Combine Humanities TWO A
Science(Phy/Chem) ONE A
Principles Of Accounts TWO A
Chinese THREE B
Chinese(Oral/Aural) DIST -
Saw someone cried, some smile.. Lots of expression in the hall.. But i m really happy for my results.. I think my hardwork had paid off.. Really, esp for English and Combine humans... Went to Thank Brenda Tan and Mrs WOng.. Brenda forgot i got A2, she thought B3.. Scare me man.. Phew.. Below are some words to my fellow peers:
Rups: I know u r very sad for ur Maths, but trust me, u can get into a course de.. I know its a blow to u but u have to face it.. I think u will be stronger after this.. U r definitely not low standard, perhaps this time is a small fault which can't be ammended, but ammend it in POLY.. I say u can de.. =)
Kat: Hmm, u did well but dun forget u r at the verge.. So u need to JIA YOU also... Hope u r not complacent.. =)
Jas: I know that day u r unhappy with me bcos i talk too loud about my results despite the fact that i did well, but i jus wanna say in future where u go, u have to buck up already.. Most importantly dun give up, there will always be hope... =)
Sista: I know u r disappointed that u can't get into early childhood cos of ur English, but dun be disappointed cos u still stand a very high chance to get into the poly compared to the others.. So i hope u will continue to stand strong and not let this incident affect u.. =)
Kenny: I really envy u despite the fact that u did badly.. BUT do really consider wad ur aunt say.. Go for it but u must Stand up.. U can de... =)
Yi Pei: I wish u all e best la, u can go into Poly de.. Remember jus F into any course now, then in poly work hard, overtake others... =)
Willy: I think u dun deserve those marks.. But this time round the reality is playing tricks on u.. I can't help it.. But u still can go poly de... Get good grades in polu lor.. Ok? =)
As for others, i wanna wish u all the best... ITS NOT OVER ppl.. Just like the song on my blog.. =) Now for me, i m in a dilemma which JC should i go.. The past 2 days i was confused, JC or POLY? I put all the factors to go to poly jc but in the end, poly lost, i think i m trying JC... If let say i fail my GP or 1st yr(touchwood), then no choice re take poly, but at least i tried!!
Till now, i think i will put the following choice:
1st: CJC
2nd: SRJC
3rd: JJC
4th: Accountancy(NP)
5th:Tourism & Resort Management(NP)
6th:Banking & Financial Services(SP)
I m really vex.. I know JJC is good, but then SR is nearer and i may cope better in terms of standard.. JJ is quite far but its a better JC... My tuition teacher encourage me to go JJC, for ur future.. So i think thats it.. But 1st choice put a better JC and its the nearest to my house.. I know i will not get in but just try..
I may not get into JJC, but most likely a yes.. I m prepared to read all days for GP, study very very hard for other subjects.. SOme may think STAN i think Poly is better for u, cos ur English u know... As for me, i consider that fact but i think i will give it a shot.. If die, then Poly is still there... Time is not a problem to me... So long as u can do as well as others, its not a prob, like u see i m a sec 5 student, i did equally well as the Sec 4 express...
Ok, enough of this... After this i will bring myself back into the CHINESE NEW YEAR mood.. Its round the corner.. I wanna enjoy it b4 JC starts.. So see ya ppl..
