I have no idea how to start on this post..i am currently awake in the middle of.night (2++am) .Having sleepless nights for the whole week partially due to all random thoughts that have been surfacing in my mind (worry for o levels results. . .flashback of memories with my friends. .wondering what they are doing in their holidays and etc) .
10 January 2013, the judgement day for all 2012 O Level candidates. A day that i hoped that it wont never come that fast. I was.enjoying my long well deserved break when.i realised that year 2013 had already started.
Soon this date had been announced and confirmed by MOE. Everyone starts to feel butterflies alive in their stomach or preparing for.their worst.come.to.worst.scenario results. .
That day came , the whole cohort of 2012 sec4 graduates came back to CCHY and assembled in the mph for the last time . This time round ,it was Mr yap who went on to stage to announce our results . Although i felt quite disappointed at the beginning that Mr Ong didn't turn up , after hearing the cohort results being announced i felt relieved that he didn't turn up .
Our cohort performance turned out quite a big disappointment , 4G and 4H both have two students unable to qualify for JCS . The only console and improvements are the MSG OF E-maths , Physics and Core Geo from last year . Others went down .
This year the quality of outstanding students performances dropped too , no six pointers , no all A1s , only couple of 7 pointers and as long as you got 7As ,you qualify for the list . Compared to last year , really disappointing . The trend of recent years results have been an inverted V shape . Now we are on the leeward side (those students who took Geo should know what i mean)
Yap , didn't say much but i can feel from the expressions from all the teachers 'face .
okay now , let me write about myself instead of the cohort . i got a 11 for my L1R5 . It was quite close to my prediction and a bit far away from my target . During the Decs holidays , i recalled and started estimating my L1R5 according to those online answers and self-reflection of my performances . My predicted L1r5 is around 12.
MY estimated l1r5
El-b4
E n A maths-A1
PHYSic and Chem Both A2
Combined humans and core geo B3~A2
HCL-B3 or B4
Estimated L1R5 -12
This is my target
target for my Os
El-B3
E.Maths,Amaths.Physic-A1
Core geo ,combined humans ,chem-A2
HCL-B3
Target of Os , L1r5 -9 (single pointer)
Now for the actual
results
EL - C6
Emaths .Amaths -A1
Physic -A2
Chem -B3
Core GEo -A1
Combined humans -A2
Hcl-B4
ACtual L1R5 11
.(using hcl as L1 )
Note : i obtained an A1 for EXPRESS CHINESE during sec 3.
Three different sets of results and only one determines my post sec sch education
i was a bit relieved and elated upon knowing my L1R5 .
Shocking news: i scored a C6 for my English
Surprisingly,i scored an A1 for core Geography
Rest of the results , i i deserved them ..Be it an A1 or B4
Tears of sorrow started streaming down my cheeks for the C6 in my o levels results slip . I really worked hard for my English , written numerous number of essays for school and tuition teachers to mark and comment . Listened attentively in all English lessons while others are busily doing a-maths ..sci homework or practices and few even used phones in Ms Teng lessons . i attended all her remedial and supplementary lessons but exchanged for A C6 for my El results ? i admit that my writing skills sucks to the core and have a poor command of English but a C6 seemed to be too extreme for me . i have classmates who have similar results as mine in both prelims and getting A1 in the end or at least b4 . A few of my friends commented and told me , " HENG ARH , lucky you got a C6 , if you got D7 cannot go jc .." .. And those who made these comments mostly obtained an A for English .
To these friends of mine , i have an advice for you guys . "
THINK BEOFRE YOU SPEAK "
Pardon me for being so direct and rude but can you guys be a little bit more considerate and careful with your words while speaking to people that didn't do that well.
Anyway , what happen had already happened . So i see no point to continue ranting further . Now the only thing i am able to do is to reflect and do some soul -searching .
Last but not least , i would really like to thank all of my teachers from the bottom of my heart . Firstly , Mr Yeo, Ms Lim and Mrs Ang for their constant guidance during GEOGRAPHY lessons . Really grateful to have three wonderful geography teachers . Next , ms Tan for emphasizing those small details to us during a-maths and e-maths lessons . A really great a-maths teacher . Thirdly , Mr Lee and Chang , both form and co form teachers / Physic and chem teachers of 4G . furthermore , i would also like to thank both 杨老师,mdem yeo geok eng and mde yeo kk for teaching me hcl . Lastly, Ms Lin Xiao Ying , okay shall do a simple thank you to you now , shall do a long write up about you next time . Really too lazy to continue typing further.
Shall end this post with MR Lee Kah Ching's 名言 .
As long as one has been consistently putting in effort and hard work into something , the reward may not come in sooner or later (maybe not in Os , not in As or not even IN UNI ).But i guarantee that it will come eventually later in life as long as one don't give up
