It was just yesterday - The Famous 12 of January 2009 when I got my "O" Levels Results. It was a hell out of a day. It started like this ...
I woke up real early at around 8am and did my morning stuff and got ready to meet Rong Li and gang at his house. So I went to his house and we were all watching Balls of Steel - Some British Gag Show. Just think of "Just For Laugh" and you push it to the extreme mode. Yeah, that's what you get - Balls of Steel. Anyways, soon it was 1.30pm. We all got ready and went to school.
At school, we all waited. Yeah, waited...
2pm came and the new principal congratulated us cause we did 10/14 subjects better than the previous batch interms of the Sec 4 Express ? I'm not too sure. Anyways, after that, he showed the names of the top students, like around 6/7 of them and I wasn't there. Personally, I was shocked. Real shocked :( Anyways, I panicked cause I was thinking "Damn, it's so gonna be like PSLE again. Shit, I'm gonna screw this up." So I was like jumping from one place to another till I sat down in the chair facing my form teacher, Miss Choy where she passed me the result slit. I calculated and I got an 11. I shooked her hand, just to thank her for all that she has done as in teaching us as a class and bringing the class up. Hehe, and also to thank her cause I got A1s for both my maths. Haha.
Like all Singaporeans and stuff, we all start to compare our results. Friends called, smsed and asked. Yeah, I feel like so inferior now. But anyways, I must be fortunate and remain postive cause there are some who are not able to go to their desired courses. To those, good luck in whatever you are heading for :)
After the results, we all headed to Compass Point to have subway. I have a foot long sandwich at 4pm and I was so full that I only had breakfast at 9am today as in Tuesday. Then we headed to Leslie's House for some HALO 3. I got pwned. Yeah, pwned. My excuse being I was so unfamiliar with the controls so I lost. HAHA.
In the end, we all seperated. I went home to rest and catch up with my parents whereas the rest went home to get changed and play some LAN. Whao, I was too tired to do any of that stuff already.
So 12 Jan, I'll always remember you like this.
