it's finally over!!! ...
the freaking O'level results have been released

the anxious, long 2-month wait for the results came to an end today and they just seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.
Getting the results back today sort of opened up a new lease of life for me

it made me realise how important education was,well...especially in Singapore
and witnessing some people shed tears while others express their ecstacy in different ways,was like witnessing a myriad of emotions

all of us were like anxiety bombs,waiting to set off any moment while waiting for our turns to retrieve the slips

what was a 20minute journey from home to school,seemed like the longest 20minutes I had ever taken to get to school :x
and it could have well probably been the last time I visited the school,other than band-related events..

and within these two months,all I kept thinking to myself was how badly I was going to do,especially due to the fact that I knew I had screwed my Humans up

nevertheless,I braced myself mentally and eventually went up to retrieve my results slip,and at first I dared not look,but then my teacher just took it out and flashed it right in front of my eyes

when I saw my results,my heart was too jumpy to count my L1R5
I stood up impulsively, then immediately walked to the back of the hall,where it was quieter, allowing me to catch a breath or two.

I then managed to calm myself down and tally my L1R5 score
I won't say my score here because I am particular sensitive about revealing information online.
just an uncanny habit,don't mind me

but I can affirm you that my L1R5 is below 20,not single digit though,of course o.o

anyway,what's done is done..
I now have to set my mind into post-O'level life that lies ahead

the headache now,is choosing the courses that I want to take in Poly, decisions that will ultimately determine my future
and I have until Friday to make those 12 choices. Pretty rushed,but I guess it's their way of speeding up procedings.

and who knows,I might even consider JC education :0 hmm..

*sighs of relief* ~~~
I've now got a heavy load of my chest removed,and what lies ahead is only the beginning of a new life for me

the road to O'levels and the O'levels itself have changed my life significantly,and this four-year Secondary school experience,I would say,has not been put to a waste
I really cherish these four years I had in Maris Stella,and I'll never forget the friends I've made, and the memories I had with them,even though I might not be all-that close to them

this is life ultimately...you have to move on no matter what
and so,I wish all graduated Sec4s all the best with life no matter where it leads you,
and good luck to all graduating Sec4s this year for your O'levels!

all the best people,peace ~!
