Release of Results

A fitful sleep... awakening at the slightest sounds. Time crawled by when one can't get to sleep. Finally it was 6.10am. I jumped out of bed and booted up my laptop. While i sat down waiting for the screen to come alive, i couldn't help but worry about my borderline results.

After several clicks, the Degree Audit popped out. My eyes darted around, looking for the one and only module i feared failing. And then, i saw it. STATISTICS & QUANTITATIVE METHODS - D. Holy cow... My heart sank. I allowed the grim reality to sink in before looking at the rest of my results. My very first big fat D. I was almost certain i had to repeat this dreadful module until i saw RESULTS: CLEAR. Huh?? And i thought i had to repeat my module...

It was a scare. Or rather, i held a wrong perception all along. Only F grade needed to repeat modules. Phew... But still, i was upset that my GPA plummeted to 3.38 thanks to this big fat D. I fared pretty well for the rest of the modules, only to be ruined by Stats. Haiz... I knew i deserved it for not managing my time well, resulting in insufficient revision.

Daddy was sweet. He offered consolation and encouragement. Never once did he put pressure on me. So did Mummy. I felt slightly better yet couldn't withhold blaming myself for such disappointment. But there was no room for regrets and i will never wallow in self pity. It was my doing afterall.

A jog/walk to take my mind away from all the unhappiness. I was too preoccupied with the pain in my left foot. The muscle protested every move. Damn. With Daddy's and Mummy's company, my spirits lifted up.

Studies... results... are only part of life. There are so many other things worth pursuing and reaching out for. Yes, they are the foundation to a good career but what i truly want is to enjoy the process of everything i do. That way, i'm certain to find happiness.
