Didn't go to school this morning. Don't think brother paul expected many people to turn up in school today anyways. Heard from some people that only half the j1 population went to school today, which is more than i expected. Heh... Timo said only 5 people from my class went to school. Anyways... Woke up at about 8 plus, got ready and left for town. Wore my severely undersized sji shirt. Heh... I must have grew the past two months.
So i met jason, aaron, victor and ng in orchard mrt then started walking around. Imran joined us later. Walked to burger king at far east and had "brunch" there. Went to i-forgot-where then we finally made our way to sji. When we got there the first piece of good news. Qisheng told us that bamanshaw said our class had 50% distinctions for english and the lowest was a C5. Next piece of good news, ms. matthews said that nobody failed history and there was 63% distinctions there. We waited a damn long time before the doors to the hall were opened. Then we had to wait quite a while again before actually getting our results. First was prayer, then mr. lui's speech and then mr. chen's briefing (which was full of super funny pronounciation errors). "Applicants" became "africans" and "available" became "avrilble". Haha it was damn funny... At least could relieve a little bit of stress and tension before getting the results.
So the moment of truth came. Heh i sound so spastic. Nevermind. They gave out the results according to register number. So i had to wait for THIRTY people to get their results first before i did. I got really restless after a while so i started moving about the area. Then suddenly hejia shouted to me saying i got nine points. I was damn stunned. Not happy, not sad, just stunned. It took a while to settle but still, i wasn't happy, neither was i sad. Don't ask why. I'm just weird. So i collected my results slip and true enough i got 9 points. That was my aim, a single digit. Yes i will post up my results. So my ego will be satisfied. ;)
English - A1
Chinese - C6 (lol)
E Math - A1
A Math - A1
Physics - A2
Chem - A2
Combined - B3
History - A2
I was rather pissed off with my two science grades. Now i understand those people who say getting like 7 or 8 for their o's is screwing it up. I'm super amazed by my humanities marks though. I spotted wrongly and messed up the source based for social studies and didn't really complete the geog elect paper and still managed a B3. History is even better. Every section of both papers, except the paper 2 essay, i messed up, and got an a2 still. From a C6 in prelims to an A2 is not that bad... Heh... The other of my subjects i'm satisfied with. Heh...
I should be happy and going crazy over my grades, because i never expected to do this well... But something's preventing me from doing so. Its like, you can't help but feel sad for those who didn't do as well as you, especially people whom you really care about and stuff... Many classmates and schoolmates in sji as well as cj weren't as satisfied with their results as i was. Well this is to all you people out there who fall into that category. What's done is done, just do you're best from now on.
P.S. Of course, the last paragraph is the most important one in this entry.
