Expectations left unachieved
No, I wasn't aiming for a 6, and I really hate that 'confirm 6 points' tag I've been burdened with
It's just plain stupid
I knew I wouldn't get a 6, and who listened to me?
No one, no freaking one
In the end, I was way off their 'expectations', while I missed my target by one point
Why?
Just one word - English
Stupid English
I just can't understand how everyone's scoring a distinction in English while I'm left with a B3 alone
Yes, I know some were worse off than me, and I do feel bad for them, especially my two close friends, you know who you are
I guess life just sucks sometimes right?
But that's the whole point of life
Sometimes reality smacks you right in the face but we've gotta pick ourselves right up and that's what we gotta do
But goodbye VJC by merit
Yes, I know some people say I'm assured of a place through sports appeal, something that others who got the same results as me don't
But then if I did go to VJC, I'll be one of the lowest-ranked students there
Can I cope?
I don't know
After all, I did crumble under pressure this year
I guess I peaked too early
Maybe I did regret doing relatively well for my Sec 3s and 4s, only to be burdened with this 'expectations' tag
I'm not smart, I have to work hard to be smart
Maybe I should have flunked my previous exams so I can go through this O-Levels pressure-free
But I guess what's done is done
I do crumble under pressure, that's why I'm considering MJC too, coz I think I can more than cope with life there, compared to the pressures I'll face at VJC
But who knows?
Still, in the end, no matter what people say, I see my O-Level results as more of a disappointment that I can't erase, but whatever JC I'm gonna be in, I hope I can do well in my As(:
P.S. Good riddance with language subjects xD Screwed up bcoz of them, lol
