I thought first week after trials will be quite ok and not so stressful. Haha, I better guess again. One thing I hate about Mondays. We have all seven PMR subjects on Monday. That means all the results of the exams come out 1 shot in a day. Where can you get more stress than from that eh????
Yesterday all main subjects except English came out. HAHA! Guess what??? I did manage to get my blardy A in Sejarah. Turns out teacher using a book which is quite old. So its syllabus is out of date. HA! Manage to fight here and there and got my A. ;P. The rest were As also. Hehe. And I'm happy to report that each of these As are not borderline As, they are well in the A zone so I'm quite safe. YES! Well, short lived happiness.
Had extra class like usual since trials over. My maid thought I'm coming home at 3. So she panicked when I was not home by that time and informed my dad. Pn Punitha started class earlier than usual so finish earlier than usual also. Then went out and played basketball. I thought my grandmother's driver gonna pick me up and send me home. It was still early so didn't check whether his car there anot. My dad was already there thinking nobody picked me up from school. Pressing his horn non-stop. I didn't realise it was my dad pressing making all the noise because not expected ma. Quickly ran in the car and got a long lecture on being responsible and how I should have informed the maid I had extra classes. Problem is, actually I already did inform her. She just forgot that my exams are over.
When we reach home, dad asks me about my results. I happily tell him I got all As. He asks which subject I got highest in. Then, it struck me. I got pretty good marks in the trials, but I didn't get highest for anything. I got second and third highest for all the subjects. But I'm the most consistent student with the most consistent marks. Some other students got highest for a certain subject but got borderline As for the others. Mine are well in the A category but not highest. Got another lecture. More talking about me not going to succeed in college and not being able to join my brother in uni. +_+
I even lost out in Maths which is my favourite subject, all because my gay-hairy teacher didn't want to give me marks for working and he pitied the rest of the class. Pitied rest of the class is because: 1 question based on identifying a pie chart was 2 marks. Need working and answer. I gave working but stated my answer in a wrong way. So should get 1 mark. But most of the class didn't do working. So he decides that both marks should go solely to the identifying the answer from the pie chart. So Sean gets 0 marks. Sean loses out in Maths by how many marks??? 1! The gaylord even insisted on cutting off 1 more mark from me because I forgot to simplify my answer instead of the usual half mark. What to do??? He purposely wants other people to win me. Like how he marks work in class.
Then at the start of today, 6 people in my class had 6 As and waited for English to come out. These 6 are me, Elvina, Kyle, Yugendran and "the 2 sadists". Mr Anthony comes in and spoils the dreams of half of these 6. And I'm 1 of those 3. WHAT THE HELL????? B for English! The other 2 are "sadist number 2" and yugendran. Kyle and Elvina gets 81. "Sadist number 1" gets 83. Almost could fight for an A. But "sadist number 1" decides to try and convince teacher that I am wrong and succeeds. So I'm stuck with my B.B.B.B.B.B.B. Damn irratating la.
Go home, get another lecture on how I'm gonna fail in Trinity College's tough literature. Nevermind, I can always get tutoring from Mr Gary Tan a.k.a "the guy whose compositions can't be understand properly by me". I agree to wash your clothes and cook you good food in return. So have deal k?????
Final story: 6 As 1 B. *ouch*. Nevermind la. Mr Anthony's standard of marking is probably 20 times higher than the non-English educated examiners who are gonna mark our PMR papers. Haiz, so stress la now. Gotta study 24-7 now because my parents think I'm not giving it my best yet. Yea improvement in every subject except English = not my best. Probably because I didn't get any book prizes. Aihs. DAMN U PMR.
