post A levels
Saturday, March 15, 2008 x 9:34 PM
My results aren't fantastic, in fact it is a far cry from those who got 7 distinctions and that being an average.
Then again, i thank God for His grace because i never dreamt of clearing my A levels, especially after how i walked out after every examination. Who can forget Econs paper 2? The first exam paper which i actually walked out crying, feeling beaten with a gloom that hung over my head.
Or
those arts day when i cried buckets and was close to being deranged.
The Lord has been gracious, and blessed me abundantly.
"So can you get into the U?"
"What course do you want to take?"
"What do you want to be?"
"Which Uni offers the course you want?"
Maybe with all the competition, i won't make it to a local U. I mean reading the newspaper and how students lament over the fact that they are just average after getting the many distinctions, and what great student leaders they have been, achieving every other recognition that the world can give them, i am below average in comparison to them.
Today, i am feeling stressed, even a little worried.
Let me take time to count my blessings...
1) I have a close knitted S&P Youths who prayed for and with me during my As, and still are.
2) Dazz, who took a long stroll with me by the beach before collecton of results to take my mind off all those pessimistic thoughts
3) MONSTER, who made much effort to pull herself together and do all she can for us
4) Monster and bin, for spending the evening with me after the results, making me laugh and smile
5) Sara, for reminding me of how there's really more to this life than just A levels. I have an eternal hope
6) Gera, being the most drama queen whenever we collect results, and being one of my close friends who have always been there with a little something to chase away the blues
7) God's assurance
8) Shalini, who lent me her hands to grab when it was my turn to collect my results and spent an entire sat with me at NUS open house
9) Helmet, for cracking me up with her crazy sense of humour and acting
10) black nails, for the many insightful consultations which led to my quality pass in Lit!
11) my parents-for being so concern that they can't stop asking me a million and one questions everyday. I know they love me and i thank God for them.
12) my sisters, for the confidence they had in me.
13) Amy and her lesson on self esteem, which made me see whose standard i was trying to reach
14) Veeberry, for being my prayer warrior!
15) that i get to do something for Marchilorian and Death note
16) i can wake up at 9am for the next few weeks and slowly pour through the SAT book, and the uni brochures
17) rich working experience
I can count all day.... Have you? Can you?
