Yay... I'm finally back from school in the afternoon! And today's the last day of school for term 2! Hmm, I still remembered those times when I just started sec4. Ok whatever.. But the HOLIDAYS! Hehehe, always a time to breakthru! Yeah!
Got to see the report books just before school ended. Was rather upset with CCA point system... Cos I join GB and Choir... My friends who joined GB only got a B3 but I got a C5 instead! Me and my friends attended the same number of practices. Sometimes, I came but they did not turn up. Was complaining like a complain queen! I mean, who wouldent be unhappy about it? Contributed so much to it and get nothing out of it..
On my way home, I thought to myself, "Did I participate in whatever activities because of my heart wanting to do so or just simply, the CCA points?" I recalled reading a book, 'The Key To Leadership' (i think that's the title) by Phil Pringle. The 1st chapter was servanthood... Would you only think about just me, myself and I or put others (CCA) before you? It really strucked me! Yes I agree CCA points do minus from the O level score. But frankily speaking, if you deserve to have something, you will definately get it, in any form. And I broke free from this bondage! This lesson also taught me to humble myself. Sometimes when people ask you about grade or whatever, I would always be "showing off" it's time for me to become as humble as a lamb.
Seesh, you do have to pay a price learning such lessons... But I believe that I can still get into Nayang Poly's nursing course, with or without the CCA points! Just 1 or 2 miserable points. What big difference dies it make to me? Just have to really put in extra extra effort for my exams.
About the acadimic results, can cry... I didnt get 33 in level position. I got 41. I really, really dropped. But I'm gonna believe that I can do better the next time round! Read someone's blog and was touched by it..
Be comforted with the fact that God believes in re-tests. We don't have to live with the "F" of Failure or even an average grade of a "C" for just plain Common. God is into perfecting us. He wants to give a "B" when we do our Best or an "A" when we rise Above the world. I want my final grade to be A+. May my life be All About the Almighty. Unfortunately we have to take the same test many times before we get the ever-coveted A. Always remember, God wants to say, "Well done my faithful one."
When the test is over at the end of the day - I want to know I did my best. I want God to be pleased with me.
Thanks Sister Phoebe! :D
To sum up this whole enrty, I have to be just simply, pruud of myself! :)) Going back to school for my mom to meet my teacher! :D
