Like everyone is saying, anderson has done exceptionally well this year. Mrs Poh could be seen grinning from ear to ear, a smile was plastered on mdm chan's face and the most memorable thing is mdm chan praised our class for the first time. Anderson attained an overall msg of 10.06 rounded off to 10.1 which was the best results in the past 8 years.. This got us a place in the band one group which should be celebratory. Two top scorers of the nation are produced from Anderson with 9a1s, that is our dear weilun and caisang. Reporters from today newspaper stream down to the hall and interviewed some of our high flyers while others tried to sneak a shot of themselves in the background of the picture. Overall, the atmosphere was high as excited teens hugged their peers with overwhelming emotions, some totally taken aback by their unexpectedly good results while others sob in disappointment.
Settling down in rows of our classes of year 2006, everyone waits intently for the releasal of the results. As Mrs Poh shows slides of the tabulated msg for individual subjects, the shouts and screams of joy were evident as secretly each individual seated in the hall hoped that they had contributed to the number of distinctions chalked up.
Higher chinese msg flashed past. *gasps 3._ looks bad..
Then finally came the time everyone were waiting for. "we will hand over to your form teachers now..." And then came all the anxiety and worries with each smile and frown appearing on the faces of peers..
Some people who were so tough also succumbed to their sadness.. naomi was so frightened by
ms goh that she burst into tears. according to sokmui, it's because she got a B. oh well. ultimately it's the finally results that counts.
From yesterday, i learnt that results are just so unpredictable. Who would have thought that the very smart people would end up crying?.. who would have thought the very slack people can end up laughing?.. the nice people in 07s56 gets 10 and the lousy people gets to stay through dsa. haiz. thats just life. unpredictablity.. which is why we take literature.
And this is post- results feelings..
was fighting away the melancholy feelings the whole of today.. not getting anything accomplished besides wasting away by the computer.. seeing familiar people signing in and out, happy people, sad people.. like a broadcaster of who did well and who dint. It's ironic that i'm feeling like that given my results unless i arent happy i din't get 6. but of course it's far from that. talking to people makes me happier which explains why i'm camping here. All those nicks with "anderson" and expressions of attachment.. and i question myself.. do i feel attached?
with all effort and will, this is the last chance to convince people to join vjc. i only hope to see more familiar faces around in school cause it's going to be a big change for me if you leave.
