Yesterday was the day. The day we all have been waiting for.
I have been doing things to distract myself from thinking about my results. Even when I'm in school, where everybody is like panicking over their results. I was happily eating and drinking my cheese fries and my lychee red tea. Hahahaha.
While I was eating, I was surrounded by friends who broke down, but I received a good new from my English teacher, that my English grade improved, compared to the previous time I took it.
It was only after I was done eating, then I started to feel the jitters again. I was feeling the jitters the night before, thanks to Wendy. Hahahaha!
Talks and talks. Hurry up man, I want my results, not all these crappy talks. When it came to announcing the statistics for Sec 5, it was when I finally broke down into tears after seeing the F&N results. Thanks Lia for consoling me then. After Michaela's name was announced as the top girl, we were expecting the next name to appear on the screen, but all we got was a black screen that said, "End of slide show."
F!
This was really bad.
I don't know why our class took so long to get our results. I went round to console my friends. But soon, all of us were breaking down too.
When it was my turn, I signed my name. Look at my result slip. The moment I saw 2 A2s, I cried like mad. Freaking 2 A2s! I had never dream of this before. My English teacher came and told me that I had passed Maths, which was my greatest fear.
Tears of joy flowed down my cheeks and I couldn't wait to tell my mother, who was probably waiting anxiously at home. It took me a while to get hold of myself. When I was done talking on the phone, I saw Wendy jumping for joy. Obviously, she did it. Then I saw Shu Si crying.
Not long, I could finally smile at my results. I still can't believe I got A2 for Literature. I remember writing nonsense.
Now, Creative writing for television and new media at SP, HERE I COME!
