By meegorengz  Seriously need to heave something off my chest cause it's been bugging me of late. So the story goes: A few days ago I received my Chemistry exam result which turned out way more atrocious than I possibly imagined. I had invested much effort into studying for the paper - religiously practising ten-year series questions, thoroughly poring over my notes, reviewing every single lesson slide etc. Truth be told, during the exam itself, I was all nerves. Got too hung up on one particular problem and kinda lost track of time, consequently ended up rushing my ass through everything else. I knew I ain't going to do well, then again I didn't think I'd flunk so badly. Flipping through the marked script when it came back, I discovered several misconstrued questions, not to mention having gotten my facts mixed up here a little, there a little. Then it happened. One very tiny tear trickled down my cheek; as I swatted that away more sprung from my eyes. I struggled to hold my composure, this whilst I penned corrections which my teacher dictated aloud. I guessed she noticed, because she requested me to step outside the classroom afterwards. Upon being probed, I couldn't hold it in any longer and bawled my eyes right out, in plain sight of folks walking along the aisle. Between sobs, I lamented about never attaining a B4 grade ever, yet my parents expected at least a B3. What terrified even more was the ensuing thought of them flying into a rage and giving me a good dressing-down when they learn of my magnificent failure. She gently patted my shoulder, saying I could always look her up at the school staff room if I needed someone to confide in. How very sweet of her, I almost felt much better. I really did. Regardless, crying in public....geez I sure as hell embarrassed myself. Okey doke, am signing off here. Thanks for tolerating my silliness btw. |
