A level results & S
Saturday, Mar. 16, 2002 - 12:26 a.m.
Dearie Diary,
It had been 13 days since I wrote in you! Wow, almost half a month had passed and many "special" things happen to me during this period of time. What I mean by special is something that have not happen to me before or something that have happen to me once in a lifetime etc... I shall write about 2 of them in this diary entry.
The first event that took place is something that happen to me once in a lifetime. It is the day where my A levels result was released! While this can only happen to me once (on 6 March 2002) in my lifetime UNLESS... I retake my A levels!
My results were not outstanding. In fact to some top scorers, they might tell me that my result will get me NO WHERE! I got C, D and AO. AO is my physics grade and it means that I fail. I guess that you must be thinking that my results was TERRIBLE. BUT I do not agree completely!
It is true that I cannot make it to any local university. It is true that I cannot apply to study for a diploma for Occupational Therapy due to my physics grade. But when I compare my A level results with my prelims, I found out that I made SIGNIFICANT inprovements. I thank GOD for that! In my prelims, I actually got AOs for all my 3 subjects. It means that by GOD's grace, I improve three grades and two grades up for the other two subjects.
The second event is something that had never happen to me before. On 8th March 2002, I went to meet my mum at Newton MRT station during my 1 hour lunch break. I forgot to bring my handphone to work and my mum happen to be near my workplace at that time. After that I decided to draw S$20 out.
I put in the card & enter the pin number... TRANSACTION APPROVED. I took out my card and I just leave the machine. I forgot about my money! It took me about thirty seconds to one minute to realise that! I ran back only to find my receipt at the machine.
Agr!! I was so sad at that moment I realise that the S$20 is gone. I remember that no one was queuing after me. So the person who took my money pass by and just took the money. I was angry at the same time. I ALMOST curse the person. But I remember something that I read from Our Daily Bread that stopped my from doing so. Thank GOD that I did not curse the person in the end!
I read about someone who got rob and still can thank God that (1) it is the first time (not many times) that someone robbed me. (2) it is my money (not my life) that the robber took. (3) it is me (not someone else who is poorer) that got robbed... That is all I recall at that moment that stopped me from cursing the person who took my money. I tell myself that (1) it is the first time (not the 2nd or 3th time) that this happen to me (2) it is only S$20 dollars (not S$100 or more) that I lost...
I guess that's all for now! Before I go, I would like to make a short prayer.
Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that my mother would be a happier person. I pray that I would not make my mum angry and I will honour her as my mum. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen!
