ARGH. i typed this long post and it disappeared. Now i've got to retype it ):
So I've got my results. I did decent, enough to get into a local university but im disappointed.
First, i underperformed again. I could have done better. I mis-counted the number of questions in one of my papers and allocated too much time for other questions and none to one. As a result, i left 11 marks blank. Im sure i would have done better if i had done the last 11 marks. Too bad i didnt.
Second, i let my teacher down again. I once told him to stop bothering me for my tutorials. I'd score 3 dist for him. Well, in the end i didnt score the dist for his subject ): Well, he knew i had potential, just like my SJI teachers knew, but again i let them down.
Third, I couldnt prove my worth. Back in 'O' Levels i did decent too but its just not what i expected. I thought it was a blunder and 'A' Levels would prove me otherwise. It did the exact opposite.
Forth, Im the worst in my social circle. For some reason i mix with the smarty pants. The average number of distinctions in my social circle, those that i know, is 4. Some less than 4 but most got more. Well, it isnt a bad thing per se but i just feel im the stupidest among them ):

So after what kwek told me, i feel much better about my results. Hence, i told all of you my results. Its in this post (:

Ambitious, ambitious yj :) You didn't do Bewilderingly And Damnably Bad At all okay -.-
ReplyDeleteFirst, you underperformed again. You could have done better, but you mis-counted the number of questions in a paper and didn't allocate your time properly. As a result, you left 11 marks blank which, if you turned back time, you could've gotten. Well, all I can say now is that it's over and that's that. Can't quite do anything about it.
Second, you let your teacher down again - like you did your SJI teachers as well. But hey, you're not accountable to them at all for your results.
Third, you couldn't prove your worth. Really? Do you really judge your worth by how many distinctions and 'A's you score? I think you should have transcended that typical, usual thinking by now :p
Fourth, I don't think I'm worthy of saying "Don't feel you're the stupidest" - even though I've been in your situation for about 2 years, I really think it's just that I don't shoot for the moon. Just try harder, aim for the sun, and you'll land on the moon!
jiayou man! yeah. dun feel u'r e stupidest. :) many ppl tat i noe felt quite disappointed as well. and they really dint do as gd as u loh. be happy man!
