Today's the second day after normal schooling resumed. I left house at 630, the normal time to catch the last bus to reach school right on the dot, neither early nor late. However, there was for some reason, a delay in the intervals and my bus came only at 0645. Thus, I was late, or was I not? The Ez-link electonic attenance device didn't specify. First lesson of the day was PE. I hadn't been exercising ever since my last PE lesson which was a month ago, so I really wanted to push myself to see where my current standards lie. Hm, I thought it wasn't that bad=)Compared to the day before, today's time table was alightly more packed. Immediately after PE was a short break, then followed by two Chemistry periods.Shan't elaborate on the unpleasant sarcasm received from the lecturer. It was really unfair, but forgive and forget. I'm still learning mercy. We got back the last part of the Chemistry paper on the latter half of the lesson. Until then my score was 19/20 for mcq (top the class), 7/40 for section B (lowest in the class I guess), 27.5/40 for Section C (top the class). It was this dramatic ups and downs which allowed me to pass the overall, and also the big difference which made my heart raced. I only had 26 from the first part of the paper and needed at least a pass badly for section C in order to pass the full paper. The fact that the teacher revealed to us that there were only 5 passes in the class didn't relieve me of any tension. Highest in the class 27.5..... Tiong Wei. It was only then that I finally see the clear sky. Ever since I came into JC, results had been really devastating for me. Seeing me making such a big come back was really great! All the hardwork didn't go in vain! Actually not hard enough. That I know. the very fact that I only started on the last week of the holidays was enough to prove this. But I wouldn't say thtaI didn't study at all, because when I study I really focus and read, sometime the same sentence I would even read more than once. The fact that I read through the notes thorouhly twice was evidence of my hard work. I've worked hard, but not hard enough. If asked if I deserved the marks I'm getting, I think I deserve more than what I'm getting. Sectipon B was a problem of time constraint. But yet, problem lies with myself for not managing the time well enough. Now that I know, next time I will try harder. Other lessons were pretty normal. I was initially pretty satisfied with my 48/83 for mathematics, but not anymore. Mrs Goh was right. We should aim higher because there's always room for careless mistakes and all. So aiming higher is good in a sense. And like what I told Crys the day before, "even when I'm not doing well, I never thought of myself as being more stupid than the rest. The fact that we are in TJ means that we are capable and we are smart. It's just that we have not worked hard enough." Alright, may sound a little egoistic, but yes, I do think that I'm smart. =) In fact, really smart! Haha, So crys got to work hard ok? You are smart too! And F, you too! After school, there was a short dilemma on Ms Thangam's birthday. I heard it from class that it is, but we weren't sure. Thus, me and Theen went on to buy her present (some animal toys), and was stranded on whether to give or not to give. We were afraid of the awkwardness. On the way home, I read up a little. I'm still very much stuck in the book Genesis, since I would doze off everyday after reading the most four pages. The headache is killing me...
