Results Day!
Hello diary, its me again! This time round, i couldnt talk to you since i was away on a holiday trip to bangkok!! So many things happen the past 3-4 days i don't know whr to start. First, it was the A'lv results we're all waiting for. Next, needless to say, was the trip to Bangkok. Lastly, was of course my dearest dear (Low Pei Wen!!)
The date was 7thMarch. It was the day of the release of A'lv results! Coincidentally, it was also the day im leaving Singapore to a place they call heaven for shoppers. And how true it is, Bangkok's the place to go if u want to splurge! Before that, lets back track a little to the collection of results.
On the morning itself, i met dear to have breakfast at MacDonald at hougang mall. She wants to treat me after getting her first pay cheque! (act rich! haha) We ate BIG breakfast before going for some window shopping in the mall itself. We then proceeded to the library to read some megazines before heading back to the place where it all began - SRJC! At the library, i held her in my arms while we read megazines to kill time since theres a good one hour in between. Whenever i do so, i felt oh, so lucky.
The time was 1.30pm when we walked back to school. By the time we reached, the school was again filled with eager students waiting for the very results they waitied so very long. For me, i was not v.hopeful since i know how badly i did... A half done econs essay plus crap gp essay and an almost foreign physics paper which i sat for, i wasnt expecting much except to avoid getting straight... ...U's. Yes, its that bad. For many months leading to this day, i was always telling people i would flop in my A's. I had earlier told my parents i could not make it and thankfully, i was blessed with loving parents and they told me since i've tried my best, i shouldn't be too sad about it. Those weren't the exact words but i think you know what i mean.
Upon reaching school, we entered the hall as we joined up with the rest of our ex-sch mates. All of us cant stop wondering how we did except to hope for the best. Slowly but surely, the time has finally arrived. Feeling totally prepared to get back my lousy grades, i bravely approached my form teacher and told him before that moment of truth : Hi mr yong, its not that i nv study but fact is i studied v.hard so don't judge me base on my results hor! He looked at me and merely smiled. I thought i was doomed. In a flash, he flipped over my result skip and it showed BBC for my 3 H2 subjects!!! I was stunned momentarily! I couldn't believe my eyes! I was speechless! Tears almost welled up in my eyes! This couldn't possibly be a dream, i told myself. I was so delighted that i stood up, kissed and hugged him before jumping up in joy! I gave my dear a BIG hug, not knowing that she was so happy for me that tears welled up in her eyes as well. I love you dear!! =)
Next, i walked around in search of my bty pals and queried about their results and found out that we all did roughly the same but deacon was unhappy with his results. He seems disappointed with that U grade for GP. Can't seem to cheer him up. Back with the class, we approached Miss Cheng as we talked abt our results. She seems shocked that i got a C for chem considering the fact that the highest i ever got was S! In all, my A'lv results was easily the best i ever achieved in the past 2 years. I calculated my score and realised i obtained 67.5/80. The Jeremy's average was usually at 30/80!! Here's another reason why i was so overjoyed at my A'lv results even though it wasn't anywhr near fantastic! =)
As i spent more time in school, it also meant time is running up. I was bound to leave for Bangkok that evening. =(( Soon, it was 4.30pm and i had to leave. Before leaving with a heavy heart, i passed her a note (folded like how she did!) and gave her a BIG hug before waving goodbye, rushing off to Changi Airport Budget terminal....
