I did
it..
Walked
in with nerves
Received
it with grace
I was
school at 9 o’clock
Wandering
around with my mum
Talking
with Kee, Austin and Man
I was
amazed how everyone had changed after these three months
We
grow so much
From
the naïve ones
To the
matured ones
We
are no longer the vulnerable ones
Be
the reliable ones
At 10
o’clock
Everyone
was supposed to be in the hall
Waiting
for the call
I
dare not walk into it
Tears
began to form in my eyes
It
was so annoying when people knew their results early
And bragged
to everyone
Especially
that jerk..
Haha
So I stay
outside the hallway
Bumped
into Alan and his mother
She
is very approachable, accessible and amiable
Gave
us the courage
Lifted
our spirit
Though
I didn’t get better anyway
The
butterflies in my stomach just won’t go away
To
canteen. To library. To toilet. To field
Anywhere
as long as my legs would carry me
Can’t
face the truth, mean one
That
was the time when the recollection of memories began
I
worked so hard
Sacrificed
everything
Could’nt
afford to lose them all now
I
asked myself
“Do I
really deserve this?”
I
have no idea
Doubted.
Hesitated. Confused. Devastated
Perhaps
There
will be a time when I will abandon myself
Because
we will never able to justify
Have we
done enough?
I
cried
Made
up the worst thought in my mind
Armed
myself with a thick skin
Not to
bother about others
Everyone
was so eager
Standing
in front of teachers’ table
I
walked away
Hope
that I can get my results after everyone had left
Quietly..
And
then I heard my mum’s scream
Unsure
if it was a good or bad one
Because
I was still outside the hall
She
raced to me telling that I got 12A+
Stunned.
Hugged.
And I
cried, more buckets of water were pouring out
Never
expect it before (not to be clichéd, but it’s true)
Chinese
and EST had always been the nails in my ass
We
are so worried
And I
just managed to kill them all!
Getting
this result
It
means so much to me and my mum
I
would probably secure JPA scholarship
To further
my education
And
get some ‘Angpau’ from government
So as
to cover some living expenses
Life
is hard
You
are just living the easy way
Finally,
my months of exhausting work life is rewarded with a PEARL
No
matter how unnoticeable was it on its cover
How
long did it take to form the sparkle
One
day
It will
just shine
People
will recognize
True
beauty always comes from within
I
have my mother, the late grandmother, sister, teachers, tuition teachers and
friends to thank
You
make me who I am
Give
colors when I am plain
Comfort
me in times of pain
A helping
hand when I am sinking
Distract
me when too much did I think
GOD
BLESS YOU
I’m
reading some newspaper now
Found
news about me
What
the hell were the reporters doing?
They
simply distorted my points given to them!
But
anyway, I’m grateful for I’m worth for their pen
Checklist
·
Straight A+? Yes
·
Scholarship? Not sure
·
Media coverage? Plenty
·
Console my friends? Haven’t, because I was not allowed
texting when at work
·
Plans? Incomplete without the monetary beauty
Yes I
got 12A+!
I’m
very happy
A
moment to be remembered until I die
The
glory of being the ONE
Anyway,
I wouldn’t get carried away by the thought of success
Felt
complacent with what I achieved
Because
I’ve
always want bigger than that!
