well, first of all, let me wish everyone a happy new year.
'O' level results was released yesterday afternoon.
not very happy with my results. but satisfied that i am qualified for both jc and poly.
better than i thought. maybe?
didnt expect a distinction for my combined humanities.
finally got a distinction for my chinese. finally. really worth retaking.
and a distinction for my maths.
the rest, almost all, just one more grade to distinction.
glad that i can hit a 'B' for english.
well, the future is mine!
REPLY TO XUEXUN:
now, the thing is not thinking about others whose results is worse than mine. it's about myself now. i am not being selfish. i dont care you believe it or not - it concerns the rest of your life. it concerns what you are going to do in the future. people who dont take o level seriously, i think that's really very stupid of them. my target for o level is not getting what i got now. 11 points to you is heaven. i know. but for me, i still think that it's really not enough. everyone has their own target. our target is totally different. for some people, maybe 17 points is already very good for them. maybe 15 is already very good for them. as for me, my target is to get into uni in the end. every class has their own target too. my class, it's so competitive that u cant even survive if u dont aim high. for us, it's not only to get a pass for evey subjects. it is to get a good grade. a pass in a subject is just not enough for us. so now it's not the time to pity for others who did worse than me. and i wont use this as an excuse to tell myself that i did very well. i wont. there's no limit. as long as u want something, u go achieve it and there's no limit to that - as long as u believe in yourself. as human beings we must tell ourselves that we must do our best of the best for everything and nothing has a limit. even crippled people can reach the highest point of mount everest. is there a limit? NO. so i totally disagree what u said in my tagboard. my result is my result. i dont compare it with others who got worse than me. i compare with those who got better than me and work towards it. this is me. and i hope you understand. a person can only succeed if he or she aim higher and higher but not stop in mid-path and look at others who is struggling to go the way u went and u tell yourself that u are better than those.
