Even darkness must pass. A new day will come

What makes us cry, will only make us stronger

From this moment, life took a wicked twist for some.One's life with AAA will be a totally different ball game compared to another's life who scored FFF. Doors of opportunity are already closed before the latter can even smell them. I scored neither AAAA nor FFF. I'm just using them as an example here. My grade is sumthing within the range of those two scores. I'm just very disappointed with myself. It is just like during a 100m race and you were leading the entire pack, with only inches of track standing between you and your gold medal. However, you tripped over your own leg and fell. In the end, you did complete the race but your gold medal is replaced by a bronze one. This is literally how I'm feeling right now. The feeling of "just a little bit more and I would have made it" is a real bitter pill to swallow.

At this point, I know that not only had I let myself down, but also the people around me. Mr Sung, I'm sorry I failed to deliever you an A in chemistry that I so promised you. I'm sorry that I did not meet your expection despite your strong belief in me. Dear friends, thanks for all your support and encouragment during pre A level times but I'm really sorry that I did not score well enough to deserve all the time and effort you all put in for me.

Setbacks and bad times are things that make us human afterall. Each time we fall, blood and tears will be shedded. Its perfectly normal to cry and scream when we are facing a bad patch. But the tears and blood have to dry up one day. It is this day when we will give ourselves an assuring pat on our shoulders, get back on our feets and continue on our journey of life. If one ever feel that you are just too devestated or tired to stand up once more, do not forget you have many friends around you who are ever so willing to lend you a hand and pull you up. No doubt life wont be as easy as before, but the tears and pain has made one much stronger than before. One will be more prepared than before to face all new challenges that life has installed for him.

Congratulations to all folks who scored straight As, I will be hunting you down for a treat pretty soon.
