It's only a matter of time...Didn't do that badly for Maths P1. While attempting those stupid questions in the examination hall WITHOUT MY CALCULATOR, I could have passed out any minute. You guys know how bad I am with mental calculations right? Dang! It took me more than 5 minutes to figure out the magnitude of some stupid vector (I fucking hate this topic!).
But then again, I'm glad I no longer fall into the category of "F9 student". I'm happy for AMALINA "MISS CRANTO" BTE SA'AT as well! Yes, she used to flunk maths last year but this time round, she didn't just pass the subject... SHE GOT THE HIGHEST SCORE IN CLASS! My goodness!! I'm so happy for her! Congratulations AMALINA!!!! (I bolded her name and I'm going to add in her picture so the "Taiwanese girl" from THAT class will know who AMALINA is.)

THIS IS AMALINA, in case you're wondering. Don't need to be jealous. You
Along with Maths P1, I got back both my English papers. BAH! Frickin' disappointing man. I FAILED MY SUMMARY! Earned only 3 marks for content ok! Gosh, this is the kind of result worth marvelling at. 7 marks for language and 3 for content. Total: 10/25
BRAVO, Kim! BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some people may say, "Aiyah, your 'O' level get A2 already what! Worry for what?"
Hmm... let's just say that English is the ONLY subject I have a flair in. I've never excelled in anything else except for writing and reading. So getting a grade of such standard is going to affect my mentality. Like you said, I scored a distinction for English during the 'O's and now I only get a B for my overall score? It's definately demoralising.
Moreover, so what if I got an A2? It's no big deal (at least not to me). So I come back to school and I'm just going to subject myself to that A2 for the rest of my life? No, right??? Who would want to remain as second best when he/she has a chance to be the best of the best? If you're a teacher, you're gonna teach for over a decade with NO PROMOTION? I bet not.
So like I said, it's not about whether or not I've scored a good grade during my first attempt of the 'O's. It's about challenging myself to improve and become better. But if I suay suay cannot get A1 then I have no choice but to stick to my previous score. That's when I know that getting an A2 is my limit.
Kuanli, work hard!! Endure for one bloody month and that's it; all over! You've got potential to score, girl. Just do your best and prove to others that you can do the impossible. =)
I showed Dad my Maths paper. He wasn't pleased, I could tell. Sorry Pa. I'll work hard... this I promise you. $400 per month for tuition is not cheap AT ALL. But your investment in my education won't go to waste, you can count on this. Thanks for believing in me and providing me with the best.
Did I tell you guys I've got the greatest Daddy I can ever ask for? If I haven't, I'VE GOT THE BESTEST DAD IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
